Programme
Steam can be used for dried, washed or worn once laundry. These pro-
grammes can reduce creases and odours and make your laundry more
smooth.
Do not use any detergent. If necessary, remove stains by washing or using
localized stain removal.
Steam programmes do not perform any hygienic cycle.
Do not set the Steam programme for this type of clothes:
• Clothes which is not specified on the care label as being suitable for tumble-
drying.
• Clothes with inclusion of plastic, metal, wooden parts or alike.
1)
If you set a Steam programme with dried laundry, at the end of the cycle the laundry feels
humid. It is better to expose clothes to the fresh air for about 10 minutes to let the humidity
dry. Laundry should be removed from the drum as quick as possible. After a steam cycle,
clothes may to be ironed anyway, but with less effort!

oured items.
• Some coloured items can discolour with
the first wash. We recommend that you
wash them separately for the first times.
• To help the environment, do not use
more than the correct quantity of deter-
gent.
• Obey the instructions that you find on
the on packaging of these products.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers,
hooks and poppers. Tie up belts.
• Empty the pockets and unfold the
items.
• Use the correct products for the type
and colour of the fabric, the pro-
gramme temperature and the level of
soil.
• If you use liquid detergents, do not set
the prewash phase.
• If your appliance has not the detergent
dispenser with the flap device, add the
liquid detergents with a dosing ball.
• Turn inside out multilayered fabrics,
wool and items with painted illustra-
tions.
• Remove hard stains.
• Wash with a special detergent heavy
soil stains.
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove
the hooks or put the curtains in a wash-
ing bag or pillowcase.
• Do not wash in the appliance :
– Laundry without hems or with cuts
– Underwired bras.
– Use a washing bag to wash small
items.
• A very small load can cause balance
problems with the spin phase. If this oc-
curs, adjust manually the items in the
tub and start the spin phase again.
WATER HARDNESS
If the water hardness in your area is high
or moderate, we recommend that you use
a water softener for washing machines. In
areas where the water hardness is soft it is
not necessary to use a water softener.
To know the water hardness in your area,
contact your local water authority.
Obey the instructions that you find on the
packaging of the products.
Equivalent scales measure the water hard-
ness:
• German degrees (°dH).
• French degrees (°TH).
STUBBORN STAINS
• mmol/l (millimol for each litre - interna-
tional unit for the hardness of water).
• Clarke degrees.
For some stains, water and detergent is
not sufficient.
We recommend that you remove these
stains before you put the items in the ap-
pliance.
Special stain removers are available. Use
the special stain remover that is applica-
ble to the type of stain and fabric.

• Connect the water inlet hose to the
cold water tap with 3/4 thread.
CAUTION!
Make sure that there are no leaks
from the couplings.
Do not use an extension hose if
the inlet hose is too short. Contact
the service centre for the replace-
ment of the inlet hose.
Water-stop device
The inlet hose has a water stop device.
This device prevents water leaks in the
hose because of its natural ageing. The
red sector in the window «A» shows this
fault .
If this occur, close the water tap and con-
tact the service centre to replace the
hose.
A
WATER DRAINAGE
There are different procedures to connect
the drain hose:

With the plastic hose guide.
• On the edge of a sink.
• Make sure that the plastic guide cannot
move when the appliance drains. At-
tach the guide to the water tap or the
wall.
• To a stand pipe with vent-hole.
Refer to the illustration. Directly into a
drain pipe at a height of not less than
60 cm and not more than 100 cm. The
end of the drain hose must always be
ventilated , i.e. the inner diameter of
the drainpipe must be larger than the
external diameter of the drain hose.
Without the plastic hose guide.
• To a sink spigot.
Refer to the illustration. Put the drain
hose in the spigot and tighten it with a
clip. Make sure that the drain hose
makes a loop to prevent that remaining
particles go in the appliance from the
sink.
• Directly to a built-in drain pipe in the
room wall and tighten it with a clip.
