AQUA ENERGIE series machine deploys a specialized physical
treatment device to improve the quality of water. The effect is more
visible in hard waters areas.
(Cotton Wash Programme) : 1.2 - 1.4 unit hot wash at 600C
The special device is a part of the water in take system.
It breaks the bi-carbonates in water into miscroscopic crystals and
reduces tendency of the crystals to stick to any surface.
This in turn makes the crystals flow with water and improves the
power of detergents solution. The reduced surface tension of the
treated water facilitates wetting of clothes and improves detergents
action.

Environmental Protection/ Conservation Issues
Your washing machine uses water, energy and detergent efficiently,
therebyprotecting the environmentand reducing yourhouseholdcosts.
Drum
Rust Stains
Never leave metal items e.g. paper clips, safety pins
etc. in the drum as it creates superficial rust marks in
drum. If there are any rust stains remove with a non-
chlorine agent. Special non-metal sponges (never
usesteelwool) mayalsobeused.
Using your washing machine in an efficient and environmentally
friendly manner:
Do not exceed recommended load.
Cottons
5.0kg
2.5kg
1.5kg
Easy-care
Delicates and Woollens
Where possible, use the 600 C Eco program instead of the 900C Cottons
program. The extended washing achieves a cleaning result comparable
tothe 900 Cprogram, but usesconsiderablylessenergy.
Sieves
Cleaning ofWaterConnectionSieves, Filter
1. Turn off Taps. Disconnect Power supply to the
machine. Unscrew inlet hose from machine as
well as from the tap and drain out water from the

Add detergent according to the degree of soiling, amount of laundry and
water hardness, and observe the dertergent manufacturer’s
instructions.
2. Pull the sieve out the magnetic valve with a pair of
