How do I obtain the free user manual?

How should I clean the detergent drawer?

Remove the detergent drawer after pressing the release catch. Wash it under warm running water and dry it before reinserting. This should be done every two months to prevent detergent residue.

How do I clean the pump filter?

Unplug the machine, wait for the water to cool, then open the lower flap. Place a tray under the pump filter, unscrew it slowly and remove lint or debris. Check the pump impeller for obstructions before replacing the filter.

The washing machine does not drain. What should I do?

First, check if the pump filter is clogged. Then inspect the drain hose for kinks or blockages. On some models, the residual water can be drained manually using the emergency hose.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press and hold the Child Lock button for about 3 seconds until the indicator lights up. The buttons become locked to prevent accidental changes while you are away.

Can I delay the start of a wash cycle?

Yes, select the desired programme, then press the Delay Start button repeatedly to set a delay from 1 to 24 hours. The display shows the planned end time.

How do I reduce vibration and noise during spinning?

Make sure the machine is level and the locknuts on the feet are tightened. Avoid overloading and distribute laundry evenly inside the drum.

What should I do after a wash cycle to avoid bad smells?

Leave the door ajar and the detergent drawer slightly open to allow air circulation. Clean the door seal and drum regularly to prevent mould and odour.

How do I select a higher spin speed?

Turn the programme dial and if needed press the Spin Speed button to cycle through available speeds. Make sure the selected speed is suitable for the fabric type.

What kind of detergent should I use?

Use HE detergents low-sudsing powder, liquid or capsules designed for front-loaders. Choose the dose according to water hardness and load size.
