They will also help you to sort your laundry into different loads, depending on the fabric type and the highest temperature which the garment can be washed at.
- If the wash care label does not appear in the above table, then please refer to the washing machine program chart. This gives more detailed descriptions of the types of fabric that are suitable to be washed using a particular wash program.
Detergents and conditioners
The amount of detergent that you need to use in your appliance, will depend on
- The degree of soiling. Lightly soiled garments in general require less detergent.
- The size of the wash load. A smaller wash load will require a reduction in the amount of detergent.
The hardness of your tap water. The harder your water is, then the more detergent you will need to use. The detergent manufacturers normally give guidance as to how much extra detergent should be used, depending on the hardness of the water.
Liquid detergent
- If you are using liquid detergent, then it should be placed inside the dosing device supplied by the detergent manufacturer.
○ IMPORTANT: Liquid detergent should not be placed in sections 1 or 2 of the detergent drawer. - All instructions on the detergent packaging should be followed.
Water softening agents
If your tap water is hard, then it may be prudent to utilise a water softening agent. This will help to ensure that the appliance does not become clogged with hard water deposits. You may also find that it will allow you to lessen the amount of detergent that you are using.

When using any detergent or water softening agent, the recommendations of the manufacturer should be followed.

The appliance must be accessible for the engineer to perform any necessary repair. If your appliance is installed in such a way that an engineer is concerned that damage will be caused to the appliance or your kitchen, then he will not complete a repair.
This includes situations where appliances have been tiled in, sealed in with sealant, have wooden obstructions placed in front of the appliance, like plinths. Or any installation other than the one specified by Baumatic Ltd. has been completed.
Please refer to the conditions of guarantee that appear on the warranty card that you receive with the appliance.

General troubleshooting
Water under the washing machine
- Tighten the drain pump filter.
- Check the drain and inlet hose and make sure that they are fully tightened.
Washing machine vibrates during the spin cycle
- Check that the transit bolts have been removed (see installation instructions).
○ Make sure that the washing machine is installed on a flat and level floor. - Ensure that all four feet are resting firmly on the floor, by pressing down on each corner and making sure that the appliance is stable.
- If it is unstable then follow the "Positioning and levelling the appliance" section.
Poor spin results
- Clean the drain pump (see "Cleaning the drain pump filter" section).
Water in the detergent dispenser
Although there will be some water residue left in the detergent drawer after a wash cycle has completed. If the drawer is full of water then you may need to clean the detergent drawer.
Poor wash results

natural_image
Illustration of a washing machine with a bucket and cleaning tool (no text or symbols)
My garments are looking grey and there are limescale deposits present in the drum of my washing machine.
- There is not enough detergent being added.
- The incorrect detergent is being used.
- Stains are not being pre-treated.
- The correct wash program or wash temperature was not selected.

I have followed the advice given above, but my garments are still coming out with grey stains on them.
- The garments are soiled with oils, ointments or grease and were washed without enough detergent.
- The wash temperature selected was too low.
Fabric conditioner has come into contact with the garments. If this happens try to wash out these stains as quickly as you can and try to avoid getting conditioner on the garments in future.

the final rinse, I can still see foam.
- Modern detergents can result in there still being foam in the final rinse, this does not mean that the washing is not being rinsed properly.

There is white residue on my garments when I remove them from the appliance.
- Modern detergents can contain insoluble contents, and white residue after a wash cycle is not necessarily a sign of the garments not being rinsed properly.
- You should shake out the garment or brush it off. In future possibly turn the garment inside out before it is washed. You may wish to move from a powder detergent and switch to a liquid detergent instead.
Cleaning the drain pump filter

IMPORTANT: Switch off your washing machine and disconnect the plug from your mains supply.
You should clean out the filter approximately every twenty washes. If the drain pump filter is not cleaned regularly, then your appliance may find it difficult to pump out water efficiently.

IMPORTANT: When the washing machine is positioned in the location where it will be used. Make sure that all four feet are resting firmly on the floor, by pressing down on each corner and checking that the appliance stands still.
If you are fitting the optional décor strip (see below). You should take into account the height that this will add to the appliance, when adjusting the levelling feet.

Connecting to the mains water supply

natural_image

- If you only have a cold water supply available, you should connect the two hoses to the cold water outlet, by using a "Y" connection piece.
○ Alternatively, there is a blanking cap supplied with the appliance, you can securely tighten this over the hot water valve. The washing machine will adjust to allow the correct amount of water through the cold inlet hose.

√ Connect and fully tighten the inlet hoses to the threaded inlet valve that is located at the rear of the washing machine. On the end of the water inlet hoses there are connectors that have a nut on it, you should use these to secure the hoses.

○ IMPORTANT: If you are using both inlet hoses, then you must ensure that you connect the inlet hoses to the correct taps. The cold water inlet valve must be connected to your cold water tap. The hot water inlet valve must be connected to your hot water tap.
√ IMPORTANT: There should be a filter sitting inside the end of the inlet hoses that connects to your mains water supply. The inlet hoses may leak if this filter is missing. This filter is supplied with the appliance, you should contact Baumatic to obtain one, if it is missing.
√ Tighten the inlet hoses to your mains supply fully, but do not over tighten as this may distort the filter that sits in the end of the inlet hoses.
√ Test for any leaks.
Water outlet

max. 100 cm min. 80 cm√ Secure the drain hose, so that it cannot move whilst the washing machine is in use.
√ Place the end of the drain hose on your drain pipe. Push it a short way down into your drain pipe.
√ IMPORTANT: Do not insert the drain hose too deeply into the water pipe, as this may cause siphoning.
√ NEVER EXTEND THE DRAINAGE HOSE FROM ITS ORIGINAL LENGTH.

√ Consult the rating plate, located on the back of the appliance BEFORE making the electrical connections. Ensure that the voltage reaching the plug, is the same as that on the rating plate.
√ DO NOT REMOVE THE RATING PLATE AS THE INFORMATION ON IT IS IMPORTANT.
√ The moulded plug that is supplied with the appliance must be placed into an earthed and insulated socket.
√ Broken or damaged power leads must only be replaced by a suitably qualified person. A power lead of a similar type must be used in replacement.

√ IMPORTANT: We do not recommend that this appliance is connected to an extension lead.
Before first use maintenance wash
- When your washing machine has been correctly installed, we recommend that you perform a maintenance wash cycle.
- This will check that all aspects of the installation are correct; it will also remove any deposits that may have been left on the drum by the manufacturing process.
- Select the intense 90°C wash program.
○ A small quantity of detergent should be used during this maintenance wash.
