1 BEFORE WASHING THE FIRST TIME
CAUTION WITH CERTAIN MATERIALS
WASHER DOOR
Always check and adhere to recommended
washing marking on the items concerned. If no
recommendations are given, refer to those in
Chapter 8, Before washing.
The door of the washer opens electrically. Con-
sequently, the door cannot be opened normally
until the machine is connected to an electric
power supply. However, emergency opening is
available, see Chapter 12, Trouble shooting.
TRANSPORT SUPPORTS
Are the transport supports removed? If not, see
the Installation instructions.
CHECK HARDNESS OF THE WATER
Call your local water company to find out what
degree of water hardness applies. This has signi-
ficance in relation to the amount of detergent
that should be dispensed.
For brief operating instructions; see Chapter 15, Quick guide.

“remember” the point in the washing program-
me at which it was interrupted. To restart: fill
with new detergent, if required, and close the
door. The machine will start automatically from
the point at which the programme was inter-
rupted.
• Use only detergents intended for machine
washing.
• Remove the transport supports before using
the machine, see installation instructions.
• Repairs and maintenance which affect safety
or performance must be carried out by an aut-
horized specialist.
You can also interrupt a programme by pres-
sing the
button for three seconds. If you
interrupt a programme with this button, the
machine will forget where it was in the pro-
gramme, and you will have to select a new pro-
gramme to restart and fill with new detergent,
if required.
INSTALLATION
See the accompanying installation instructions.
OVERFILL PROTECTION
WASHER DOOR
If the level of water in the machine rises above
normal, the overfill protection will start to pump
out water and shut off the water supply. The
programme will be interrupted if the level does
not fall within 60 seconds.
The door of the washer opens electrically. Con-
sequently, the door cannot be opened normally
until the machine is connected to an electric
power supply.
To open the door manually, see the heading,
Door will not open, in Chapter 12, Trouble
shooting.
PACKING MATERIAL
Sort the packing material for recycling accor-
ding to recommendations by the local authori-
ties.
The machine cannot be started with the door
open.
To open the door during an ongoing pro-
gramme, see below, Interrupting a programme.

TRANSPORT/ WINTER STORAGE
If the machine is to be transported, or stored in
unheated premises where the temperature can
fall below freezing point, you should proceed as
follows:
• Empty the coin trap and the drain pump; see
Chapter 11, Care - Cleaning.
• Turn off the water supply to the washing mach-
ine, disconnect the supply hose to the inlet val-
ve, and let the water drain from the valve and
the hose.
DISPOSAL
When the machine is no longer useful and is to
be scrapped it should immediately be made
unusable.
Get in touch with the refuse collection servi-
ce or your local authorities for advice on how
to scrap the machine in a proper manner for
recycling.
The machine is made and marked to facilita-
te recycling.

8 BEFORE WASHING
Before you start washing, here is some advice
that can be useful.
RECOMMENDED WASHING MARKING
Check the recommended washing marking on
garments. The table below gives useful informa-
tion on suitable washing programmes for diffe-
rent materials and amounts of washing.
SORTING THE WASHING
Sort garments in relation to:
• How soiled they are
• Colour
COLOURED COTTON
• Material
Coloured cotton garments marked with a re-
commendation for 60ºC should be washed the
first time at 60ºC to get rid of any surplus dye.
If this advice is ignored there is a risk that co-
lours will run. Use a detergent without bleach
to safeguard the colours.
GARMENTS
• Close zip-fasteners so that they do not chafe
against other items.
• New coloured garments can have surplus dye
and should therefore be washed separately the
first time.
DELICATE WASHING
• Turn garments inside out.
This reduces the risk of bur-
ling and dye creases.
Unbleached linen
Unbleached linen should be washed at 60ºC
using a detergent without bleach or optical
whitening agent. Severely soiled linen can oc-
casionally be washed at a higher temperature,
but not too often because heat can destroy the
lustre and strength of linen.
• Empty pockets and suitably
let them wash turned inside
out.

Wool and silk
PRE-SOAKING
Wool and silk are sometimes marked machine
wash, and sometimes hand wash. The Wool and
Hand programmes of the machine are at least
as gentle as washing by hand.
The Pre-soaking option
means that your
2
h
washing will be soaked for two hours before the
programme starts. This is useful for highly soi-
led washing.
Wool is particularly sensitive to mechanical
processing. If you wish to avoid spin drying,
you can press out the water instead using terry
towelling. In this case, you should select No
Spin. See Chapter 9, Washing for details of how
to select this setting.
The drum will rotate on two occasions every
tenth minute.
SAVE TIME
Use the White/Coloured programme to save
time. This programme has a shorter main wash
than ”Normal”, but it is often sufficient for nor-
mally soiled washing.
Most garments will tolerate a short spin, ho-
wever. The Wool and Hand programmes al-
ways include a short spin.
ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY
Man-made fibres and synthetic fibres
These materials require a lot of space if they are
not to crease. Fill the drum only to half load
when washing man-made/synthetic fibres. Se-
lect a short spin by selecting a spin speed of 800
revolutions/minute or lower.
You can save a lot of energy by not using a
stronger programme than necessary.
- Without increasing the temperature, the wash-
ing effect can be increased by selecting the
option. You will then save energy without lo-
sing any washing effect.
NOTE
- Select a fast spin speed to reduce the energy
consumption for subsequent drying in a tumble
dryer or a drying cabinet.
Viscose and acetate are brittle when wet.
MINIMIZING ALLERGY RISKS
- Select Quick if you simply need to freshen up
shirts or training kit, etc. You will save both
water and energy.
This washing machine offers a Super rinse func-
tion
. You should use this to take account
of persons with a sensitive skin, for example
persons with allergies and infants.

DETERGENTS
Overdosing detergent will not give better re-
sults, it only increases the burden on the envi-
ronment.
Try using less detergent, and increase the dose
only if you are displeased with the washing re-
sults.
TEXTILE DYEING
If you want to dye fabrics in the machine, select
Normal with the Super rinse option,
.
Choose a temperature according to recom-
mendations from the dye maker. If the fabrics
to be dyed are mixtures such as cotton/polyes-
ter, you should select a spin speed of 800 revo-
lutions/minute.
NOTE
Bleaches or stain removers that contain the che-
mical Na2S2O4, known as sodium dithionite or
sodium hyposulphite, must not be used in this
washing machine. If these substances are used
they could cause corrosion and discoloration.
NOTE
Put the dye directly in the drum - not in the
detergent compartment. After dyeing, the emp-
ty machine should be run using the same pro-
gramme. Use a normal amount of detergent.

the programme will be executed without spins
and will end with the final rinsing water re-

11 CARE AND CLEANING
CLEANING THE COIN TRAP AND THE DRAIN PUMP
The washing machine has a trap in which coins,
hairpins and similar items fasten. Clean the coin
trap and the drain pump as follows:
1. Ensure that the machine is drained and the
main power switch is turned OFF.
2. Open the drain pump cover. Use the parti-
tion piece from

CLEANING HOLES UNDER THE RIDGES
HARD WATER
If you suspect that objects, eg, nails, paperclips,
pins and so on, have fallen through the washing
drum you should check the space underneath
the ridges. Such items can corrode and cause
rust stains on your washing. Nails and other
sharp objects can tear fabrics.
If you live in an area that has hard water, the
washer drum may become coated with a grey-
white deposit. To get rid of the deposit, pour a
packet of citric acid, about 20 gram, in the drum
and run the Normal programme at 95°C. You
will find citric acid on the spice shelf in your
grocer’s store.
Proceed as follows:
1. Use a screwdriver or similar tool.
2. Insert the screwdriver
in the middle hole in
1
the ridge and care-
fully push the
screwdriver handle
to the left.
3. Grip the ridge with
your other hand and
pull it towards you
as illustrated.
2
4. Lift up the ridge.
5. Remove any objects.
6. Position the ridge in the fixing holes with the
F-mark facing you. Ensure that the ridge lugs fit
firmly in their holes in the drum. Slide away
from you until it stops.
