natural_image
Pure geometric diagram with intersecting lines and shapes, no text or symbols presentPreparing the Wash Load
Sort the wash load for best washing results, and then prepare the clothes according to the symbols on their care labels.
Sorting the Clothes
- For best washing results, sort your clothes according to the care label stating fabric type and washing temperature. Adjust the spin speed or spin intensity in accordance with the fabric type.
- Soil level (Heavy, Normal, Light): Separate clothes according to soil level. If possible, do not wash heavily soiled items with lightly soiled ones.
- Colour (White, Lights, Darks): Wash dark or dyed clothes separately from whites or light colours. Mixing dyed clothes with light clothes can result in dye transfer or discolouration of lighter clothes.
- Lint (Lint producers, Collectors): Wash separately lint producing fabrics from lint collecting fabrics. Lint producers can result in pilling and linting on the lint collectors.
Checking the Clothes Care Label
The symbols tell you about the fabric content of your garment and how it should be washed.
Symbols on the Care Labels
| Symbol Wash / Fabric type | |
![]() | Normal WashCotton, Mixed Fabrics |
![]() | Easy CareSynthetic, Mixed Fabrics |
![]() | Special Delicate WashDelicates |
![]() | Hand Wash OnlyWool, Silk |
![]() | Do not wash |
NOTE
• The dashes under the symbol give you information about the type of fabric and the maximum allowance of mechanical stress.
Checking the Clothes before Loading
- Combine large and small items in a load. Load large items first.
- Large items should not be more than half of the total wash load. Do not wash single items. This may cause an unbalanced load. Add one or two similar items.
- Check all pockets to make sure that they are empty. Items such as nails, hair clips, matches, pens, coins and keys can damage both your appliance and clothes.

text_image

- Close zippers, hooks and strings to make sure that these items do not snag on other clothes.
- Pre-treat dirt and stains by brushing a small amount of detergent dissolved water onto stains to help lift dirt.
Adding Detergents and Softeners
Detergent Dosage
- Detergent should be used according to the instruction of the detergent manufacturer and selected according to type, colour, soiling of the fabric and the washing temperature. Use only
22 OPERATION
detergents that are suitable for Drum (front load) type washers.
- If too many suds occur, reduce the detergent amount.
- If too much detergent is used, too many suds can occur and this will result in poor washing results or cause heavy load to the motor.
- If you wish to use liquid detergent, follow the guidelines provided by the detergent manufacturer.
- You can pour liquid detergent directly into the main detergent drawer if you are starting the wash cycle immediately.
- Do not use liquid detergent if you are using the Delay End function, or if you have selected Pre Wash option, as the liquid will dispense immediately and may harden in the drawer or the tub.
- Detergent usage may need to be adjusted for water temperature, water hardness, size and soil level of the load. For best results, avoid overdosing the detergent. Failing to do so will cause oversuding.
• Refer to the label of the clothes, before adding the detergent and choosing the water temperature.
- Use only suitable detergents for the respective type of clothing:
- Liquid detergent is often designed for special applications, e.g. for coloured fabric, wool, delicate or dark clothes.
- Powdered detergent is suitable for all types of fabric.
- For better washing results of white and pale garments, use powdered detergent with bleach.
- Detergent is flushed from the dispenser at the beginning of the wash cycle.
NOTE
- Do not let the detergent harden. Doing so may lead to blockages, poor rinse performance or odour.
• Full load: According to manufacturer's recommendation.
• Part load: 1/2 of the normal amount.
• Minimum load: 1/3 of full load.

SATTENER WELKIN ① ② ③① Main wash detergent compartment
② Pre-wash detergent compartment
③ Liquid fabric softener compartment
3 Gently close the detergent dispenser drawer before starting the cycle.
- Slamming the drawer closed may result in the detergent overflowing into another compartment or dispensing into the drum earlier than programmed.
- Be careful not to get a hand caught in the drawer while closing.
- It is normal for a small amount of water to remain in the dispenser compartments at the end of the cycle.
Fabric Softener Compartment
This compartment holds liquid fabric softener, which is automatically dispensed during the final rinse cycle. Either powdered or liquid fabric softener may be used.

SOFTENER MAXAdding Water Softener
A water softener, such as anti-limescale can be used to cut down on the use of detergent in areas with high water hardness level.
- First add detergent, and then the water softener. Dispense according to the amount specified on the packaging.
NOTE
- Do not pour fabric softener directly onto the clothes in the wash drum, doing so will cause dark staining on the clothes that will be difficult to remove.
- Do not leave the fabric softener in the detergent drawer for more than 1 day. Fabric softener may harden. Softener may remain in the dispenser if it is too thick. The softener should be diluted if the consistency is too thick so that it can flow easily.
- Do not open the drawer when water is being supplied during the wash.
- Solvents (benzene, etc.) must never be used.
Adding Detergent Tablets
Detergent tablets can also be used when washing.
1 Open the door and put detergent tablets into the drum before loading the clothes.
2 Load the clothes into the drum and close the door.
NOTE
- Do not put tablets into the dispenser.
