In case of doubt, ask Customer Service or a dealer.

Observe before start-up:

Read the enclosed documents carefully before using your washer-extractor. They contain important information on the installation, use and safety of the machine. Keep the documents safe for other users or subsequent owners.
⚠️ Remove the transport-securing device and store it in a safe place.
Have the machine installed according to the mounting instructions by qualified and trained personnel. If the machine is to be placed on a plinth, it must be mounted according to the installation instructions, otherwise this involves danger of tipping or falling.
Do not connect an appliance which displays visible damage.
You must use a new hose kit to connect the device to the water supply. Old hose kits should not be reused. Check the hose kit at regular intervals to ensure it can be changed in time to prevent water damage.

Check that the pump cover is inserted and fastened securely. Otherwise water can leak from the machine and cause a slipping or scalding hazard.
When operating the washing machine at 2000 m above sea level, it is absolutely imperative to activate the temperature limiter to prevent the water from boiling (see service instructions or ask the customer service and/or retailer).

Observe when washing:

The machine is exclusively intended for washing or wet cleaning and spinning of all fabrics bearing a care label indicating their suitability for these methods.
Do not leave children unattended near the machine and do not let them play with it, especially during the waiting phase of start time preselection. If required activate child lock (see chapter «Extended basic settings»).
⚠️ Keep pets away from the machine.
If there is a puddle on the floor near the machine (hose rupture, leakage or similar), wipe it dry and eliminate the cause (see chapter «Problems»), otherwise slipping hazard.
Do no place any objects on the top cover of the machine: They might slip off and fall to the floor during the spinning process.
Only use detergents, washing agents and other additives, which are intended for use in household washing machines: softeners, colouring and bleaching agents, starch, etc. Only add laundry starch in the final rinse (conditioner), because there is a risk of explosion at other stages of the wash.
Under no circumstances use any solvent-based detergents in the washing machine. Textiles which contain inflammable chemicals, solvent-based detergents, must be rinsed well in clear water by hand before washing. There is a risk that parts of the machine could be damaged and poisonous vapour released. There is also a risk of fire and explosion.
Before starting a wash programme make sure that there is no foreign body in the drum and the detergent drawer (coins, nails, paper clips, etc.).
When closing the door, make sure not to pinch your fingers.
When washing at high temperatures, do not touch the hot loading window (danger of burns).
Never loosen the pump cover or open the door during an active wash programme, as this might cause a scalding hazard and/or a hazard of personal injury due to the rotating drum.
⚠️ Please observe that after interrupting a wash programme, the laundry may still be very hot: Burn hazard. Only remove cooled laundry from the drum.

Observe at the end of the programme:

Do not reach into the spinning drum.
⚠️ Turn off the tap and switch off the power.
If the main switch (on the building side) is turned off without closing the water tap, the overflow protection installed in the machine is ineffective.

When transporting your machine:

⚠️ Fit the transport securing device.
⚠️ Take care when transporting the machine! (risk of injury!) Do not lift the machine by the fittings on the front!

General safety information:

Do not stand on the machine.
Do not sit, lean or support yourself on the loading door. (danger of tipping!)
Under no circumstances spray the machine with water or clean it with a steam cleaner.
Do not immerse the aqua-stop valve in water: Electric shock hazard.
If the machine is not needed for a longer period of time, turn off the tap and disconnect it from the power supply.
⚠️ Touch the power plug with dry hands only. Only pull the plug, do not pull the cable.
⚠️ Repair work may only be executed by qualified and trained personnel and defective components may only be replaced with original spare parts by Schulthess. Inexpert repairs can cause considerable damage and risk to the user. Modifications to the appliance are only admissible after consultation with the manufacturer.

How to wash correctly and environmentally friendly

Water hardness

Water hardness plays an essential role in washing and it is divided in the following groups:

French hardness	German hardness
^	^

soft 0 - 15 0 - 8

medium 15 - 25 8 - 14

hard > 25 > 14

If you do not know it, ask your local government.

Detergents

You can use all powder, compact (concentrated), tablet and liquid detergents commonly available for use in automatic washing machines.

Use the right detergent for the type and colour of your fabrics:

● Strong detergent for whites
- Coloured detergent for coloureds
● Gentle detergent for synthetics, viscose and microfibre
- Wool detergent for wool, silk and outerwear

Detergent dosing

Good washing results can only be obtained with correct dosing. Follow the dosing recommendations on the laundry packaging. Bear in mind that the dosing quantities given on the packaging refer to full drum loads. For smaller wash loads reduce the dosing quantity (with automatic load metering follow display recommendations).

Rule of thumb: If during the washing a foam layer of the approximate thickness of 2cm above the washing liquid and/or laundry surface is detected, the dosing quantity has not been selected properly.

The correct detergent quantity is dependent on

● the water hardness:

If this is unknown, check with your local water supplier. Adjust the detergent dose according to the hardness (see above).

● the degree of soiling:

lightly soiled

No visible soiling or stains, the clothing has only absorbed body odour for example.
Reduce the quantity of detergent in accordance with the recommended dose.
Wash these fabrics in the express programme.

normal soiling

Visible soiling and a few faint stains.
Normal dosing as per the dosing recommendation.
Wash these fabrics in the standard programme.

heavily soiled

Clearly visible soiling and stains. Increased dosing as per the dosing recommendation. Pre-treat or soak stains if necessary, pre-wash fabrics or wash in the «sanaPlus» programme.

● the quantity of laundry:

With a half-full drum, reduce the quantity of detergent by one third.

Please note:

● Insufficient detergent

• only becomes apparent after repeated underdosing
• causes the laundry to become grey or not properly clean
• causes the laundry to become hard (board-like)
• may cause grey-brown greasy spots to form on the laundry
• may lead to calcified heating elements

- Excess detergent results in

• poorer washing results
• foaming over of the detergent and breakdowns
• higher water consumption and costs
• increased washing programme length
• unnecessary environmental pollution

Liquid detergent and start time preselection

Use the divider for liquid detergent in the detergent drawer or use dosing aids such as dosing balls or bags supplied with the detergent.

When using start time preselection, use a dosing ball for liquid detergent

If poured directly into the detergent drawer, liquid detergent slowly runs out and thickens.

If this happens several times, it can lead to blockages due to detergent deposits.

Remove the dosing ball at the end of the programme!

Soap-based detergents

Your washing machine has a special programme for washing with soap-based detergents, which you can select in the basic programme settings (see chapter «Extended basic settings»).

Because soap does not contain anything to prevent lime-scale, you should only use it with soft or medium-hard water, together with a separate water softener.

Otherwise, limescale and soap residue can build up in the machine, which will be deposited on laundry in the form of grease spots or as limescale on the heating element.

Water softeners

Special water softening aids can be used in the water hardness ranges «medium» and «hard». Follow the instructions on the packaging! In this case add the detergent according to hardness range «soft». First add the detergent, then softener in the same chamber. In this way the agents will be washed in better.

Soaking agents

Add to chamber I of the detergent drawer.

Choose soaking programme (see chapter «Extended basic settings»).

Fabric softener, fabric conditioner

Add to chamber Do not exceed the max. volume of 200 ml otherwise the fabric conditioner will flow out through the overflow. Before adding thick fabric softener add water and stir to ensure that it is free of lumps so that the siphon does not get blocked.

Bleach, stain removal salt

Powder bleaches and stain removal safts can be also used for fabrics with bleachable spots. First fill the detergent and then the bleach powder or stain removal salt in chamber II. In this way the agents will be washed in better.

Impregnating agent

The clothes are impregnated evenly and durably by adding impregnating agent to the washing machine.

Breathable all-weather clothing such as GoreTex or SympaTex must only be treated with the specifically designated impregnating agent. Otherwise you risk blocking the breathing membranes.

Stain removal

If possible, stains should be removed or at least pretreated immediately, as long as they are fresh, before washing the laundry in the washing machine.

Stains which have already dried, in particular in sun light, are much more difficult to remove, if this is possible at all. Try water, soap (curd soap) and prewashing agents. Dab it on, slightly rub it in and let it soak, then rinse the textile. In this way it is possible to completely or almost completely remove many typical household stains like gravy, coffee, chocolate, wine, fat, oil, fruit juices, blood, etc. Attention: Stains which have not been pretreated may be fix in the textiles during the wash process. Then it will be almost impossible to remove them or only by means of a strong bleaching agent.

It may sometimes be necessary to pretreat, wash or soak textiles several times in order to remove tenacious and dried stains.

Washing tips

Sorting the laundry

Follow the care symbols in the fabrics.

Laundry marked with the following care symbol may not be washed in the machine:

- do not wash

Sort the laundry by fabric type and degree of soiling.

Sort the laundry by colour. Wash whites and coloureds separately, otherwise white laundry will become grey. Do not wash new coloureds with other laundry due to the risk of discoloration!

Knitwear made wholly or partly from wool must also be labelled «non-felting» or «machine washable», otherwise there is a risk of felting during the washing process.

▶ Remove foreign bodies such as safety pins, paper clips, coins etc from the laundry.
▶ Brush out sand from the pockets and turn-ups.
▶ Close zips, hooks, eyelets and Velcro closures.
▶ Button up duvet covers and pillowcases and tie fabric belts and apron strings together.

Washing tips

▶ Do not exceed the maximum loading
quantities. This is because overfilling detracts from the washing result and may lead to fabric damage.
▶ Wash particularly delicate laundry, such as pantyhose or net curtains, or small items of laundry such as socks or handkerchiefs in a net laundry bag or pillowcase.
▶ Turn trousers, knitwear or knitted fabrics, e.g. jerseys, T-shirts, sweatshirts inside out.
▶ Check that brassieres are machine washable.

Wash brassieres with stiffeners in a fine-mesh laundry bag because of the risk of the wires becoming detached in the wash and falling through the drum perforations with resultant damage.

Textiles with metal reinforcements can damage the components of the machine and must not be washed in the washing machine.

● Dispense with a pre-wash for normally soiled laundry and save water, energy, detergent and time.

▶ You also have the opportunity to tailor your machine to your needs by changing the basic settings (see chapter «Basic settings»).

Express programme

Express programme for lightly soiled fabrics. Reduces the washing time.

For small loads of washing or light soiling, reduce the amount of detergent used according to the recommended dosage.

Gentle programme for easy care fabrics

For easy care and particularly sensitive fabrics made of cotton, mixed fibres, synthetics.

Prewash

For particularly heavily soiled laundry, bad stains or occupational laundry (e.g. blood or oil stains, nappies). The wash temperature is 30^ C. Add 14 of the detergent to section I.

Caution: There is no prewash on wool programmes to protect the fibres.

Disinfection

This programme is for heavily soiled fabrics, especially those with bleachable stains (e.g. fruit, coffee, tea, red wine).

The Disinfection programme can be activated for boil wash and coloureds, but also for easy care fabrics. This will increase wash time. See «Disinfection» in the chapter «profiClean programmes».

● This will increase wash time.

Hint

• The programmes «Express», «Prewash» and «Disinfection» exclude each other, this means that only one of these additional programmes can be selected.
• Switch off the main switch (on the building side).

Additional functions

▶ Selecting additional functions: see chapter «Washing/Selecting additional functions».

Start time preselect

By pressing the «Pre-set starting time» button one or more times, the programme start time can be delayed by up to 100 hours.

This makes it possible to take advantage of cheaper nighttime electricity, for example. The start time and consequently also the end time of a programme can be tailored to your individual lifestyle.

The start time and the anticipated programme end time are shown on the display.

The preselected time starts when the start button is pressed.

When the start time is reached, the selected programme starts automatically. The current programme duration will be displayed.

Note

• The start time preselect only works if no soaking programme has been selected (see also chapter «Extended basic settings/ Soaking programme»).
• In the event of a power cut, the current time is saved. The duration of the power cut is not taken into account.

Reducing the temperature

▶ Pressing the «Washing Temperature» button several times reduces the wash temperature in 10°C stages (15°C stages above 80°C).

The new temperature will be displayed. It can also be changed during the first two minutes of the programme. The lower temperature is compensated by an extension of the post-wash time, which achieves the same result for less energy.

Spin speed

This function is used to select a lower spin speed or a rinse stop for a more gentle treatment of the laundry, for example with delicate laundry (see next section). Without spin speed reduction the laundry will be spun at normal spin speed. This is always dependent on the programme chosen.

A single press on this button causes the pre-selected spin speed to be shown in the digital display.

Repeatedly pressing the button causes the spin speed to be reduced. The slowest possible spin speed is 200 rpm. The spin speed can also be changed while a programme is operating but not during the spin cycle however.

Money-saving tip

If the laundry is to be dried in a tumble dryer, select a high spin speed since well-drained laundry needs much less energy and time for machine drying.

Rinsing stop

The «Rinsing stop» function is used to avoid creasing of sensitive fabrics. The laundry is held in the last rinse water.

Select rinsing stop by reducing the spin speed until you see «Rinsing stop» on the display.

You can end the programme by draining the laundry without spinning or by spinning (see chapter «Washing/Ending the programme with rinsing stop»).

Quick wash

The programme can be shortened or aborted by pressing the Quick wash button.

▶ See chapter «Washing/ Cancelling the programme»).

This button can also be used to select special programmes.

▶ See «Particular programmes» in the chapter «Washing».

Special programmes

Adding laundry / Closing the door

This functions are the same as the standard programme (see chapter «Washing»).

Wool 30°C

▶ Machine washable fabrics made of wool or wool mix, with wool mark label «non felting» or «Mashine washable».

Hand wash 20°C

▶ Fabrics made of hand washable wool or wool mixtures.

Delicates 40°C

▶ Especially sensitive fabrics made of cotton or mixed fibres, synthetics
▶ Curtains, dresses, blouses, skirts
For light soiled delicate fabrics use the programme «Delicates Express».

Silk 30°C

▶ Hand-washable fabrics which do not contain wool.
Fine stockings and bras should be washed in a laundry bag.

Shirts/ Blouses 60°C

▶ Depending on the level of soiling pre-treat collar and cuffs. Hang up non-iron shirts after washing and let them dry in the air. In this way there will generally be no need for ironing.

Curtains 40°C

▶ Mixed fibre fabrics and Synthetics.
Wash programme with high water level for wash and rinse and low speed spin.
▶ When washing curtains, place metal rings or plastic hooks in a laundry net or bag (cushion cover).

Older curtains are often very bleached by the sun and no longer very resistant. Machine washing can therefore cause slight damage.

To prevent creasing at the end of the programme, it is advisable to use the rinse stop function.

Nappies 95°C

▶ White and colourfast cotton.
- In this programme the laundry will first be pre-rinsed with cold water. Subsequently fill the detergent into sections I and II, then prewash will be started at 60°C and main wash at 95°C.

Impregnation 40°C °C

This programme is suitable for the simple and efficient impregnation of sports and leisure clothing, e.g. tracksuits, down jackets and winter clothing.

The special process ensures even and lasting impregnation.

Microfibre fabrics, GoreTex and SympaTex

should only be treated with special impregnation products designed for them. If ordinary impregnation products are used, there is a risk that the breathable membranes will be blocked.

Pre-treatment: the clothing to be impregnated must be washed thoroughly first.

▶ Pull out the detergent drawer until it reaches the stop. Place the additional liquid containers in section I and II of the detergent drawer.

3,2 dl 1,6 dl

▶ Add liquid detergent to section I with 160 ml spirit vinegar - the vinegar is used to prepare the laundry for impregnation.
▶ Fill the liquid container in section II of the drawer with 320 ml of the impregnation product, or according to the product manufacturer's instructions.
▶ Close the detergent drawer carefully. If the drawer is closed too quickly it is possible that the impregnation product and the spirit vinegar will enter the washing machine together. In this case, impregnation will be impossible.

Autoclean 70°C

▶ without laundry and detergent

The drum and detergent tank are cleaned at 70^ C and subsequently rinsed.

Spin

▶ For spinning fabrics (without rinsing).
▶ The spin speed settings can be altered using the additional function 📐.

If the correct amounts of detergent are used, descaling is no longer necessary in general.

Descalers contain acids, can attack parts of the machine and cause discolouration of laundry. If you do, however, wish to descale the machine, follow the manufacturer's instructions on the packet. Limescale formation depends largely on the hardness of the water. To avoid water damage, we recommend having this checked by a specialist after around 5 years of fault-free operation.

Cleaning the drum

Rust marks caused by metal parts standing still for lengthy periods can be removed with a chlorine-free cleaning product (look at the description of the ingredients on the pack).

⚠️ Never use steel wool!

Water supply hose

Only for machines without Aquastop. To avoid water damage, we recommend having this checked by a specialist after around 5 years of fault-free operation.

Frost protection

If the machine is in a room susceptible to frost, all residual water must be removed from the detergent pump and water supply and drain hoses immediately after use.

Washing and washing result

Detergent residue in the detergent drawer:

▶ Damp or clumpy detergent: Dry the detergent drawer before adding detergent. Use dosing aids for compact or liquid detergents. Add the detergent to the dosing aid and put it in the drum with the laundry.

● The divider for liquid detergent has been pressed down: Move the divider to the position for powder detergent

- Viscous conditioner will remain in the ✕ compartment. Remedy: Dilute the viscous conditioner with approx.

100ml water and fill it in the compartment. Attention: Do not exceed the mark «max». If required, clean the conditioner compartment cover and the siphon (see chapter «Cleaning and Maintenance»).

Water not visible during wash:

- No error! The water is below the visible level in the machine.

Laundry does not get clean:

▶ Laundry was soiled more heavily than expected.
▶ Stain removal before washing.
▶ Select the maximum permitted temperature for the fabric.
▶ Select a stronger wash programme.
▶ Dose detergent sufficiently according to the manufacturer's data.

Detergent residue on the washing:

This is not due to poor rinse performance of your washing machine, but insoluble residues found in a few phosphate-free detergents, which tend to be deposited as pale specks on laundry.
▶ Remedy: dry and brush off or repeat the whole rinse process immediately. Use liquid detergent and wash programmes with a higher water level (Easy care).

Activate the extra rinse function.

Grey residue (soap scum) on the washing:

▶ The normal amount of detergent is not always sufficient for soiling from ointments, fats or oils, increase the amount for the next wash.

Remedy: select the maximum permitted temperature for the fabrics.

Grey stains on the washing:

These stains may be caused by cosmetics or fabric softener and may have appeared on the laundry outside the machine before washing.

Remedy: some stains can be washed out after soaking in liquid detergent.

The laundry is hard and/or like a board:

▶ If the laundry is dried in the air after washing, use a conditioner for the next wash. Or dry the laundry in a tumble drier.

Drum and tank are dirty (e.g. scraps of paper, oil):

▶ Tissues or similar objects have not been removed from the laundry before washing. Clean drum and tank with the wash programme «autoClean» (without laundry and detergent).

Laundry smells unpleasant (e.g. of sweat or rottenness):

▶ Laundry has been washed too long at only a low temperature and contains too many odour-producing germs. Wash laundry from time to time at 60^ C and/or the maximum admissible temperature, best with a general-purpose detergent (with bleaching agent). For washing at 20/30^ C use a special detergent which is active at low temperatures.

Odour accumulation in the machine:

▶ Odour-producing germs have accumulated in the washing machine or in the drain. Remedy: Clean the machine and drain from time to time by means of the wash programme «autoClean» (without laundry and detergent!).

Laundry mats (pilling):

▶ Delicates such as wool can mat due to the high mechanical load. Use a gentle special programme in the future suited for delicates.

Tear and hole formation, fibre wear of the laundry:

▶ Before washing remove foreign bodies from the laundry.
▶ Close zip fasteners and hooks before washing.
▶ Wash delicate laundry in a laundry net.
▶ Normal wear and/or mechanical damage of the textiles, which had already existed before washing.

Foam and leakage

Foam is visible after the last rinse:

- Some detergents tend to produce more foam, which does not affect the rinse results.

Too much foam is visible in the door glass during washing, foam fills the entire drum:

▶ Detergent dose too high. Too much foam deteriorates the washing effect. Remedy: Mix approx. 20ml conditioner with 12 liter water and add it into section II of the detergent drawer. If required, repeat the process. Reduce detergent dose in the future.

Foam leaks from the detergent drawer during washing or rinsing:

▶ Detergent dose too high. Remedy: Mix approx. 20ml conditioner with 12 liter water and add it into section II of the detergent drawer. If required, repeat the process. Reduce detergent dose in the future.

Foam leaks from the detergent drawer during spinning:

▶ Foam leaks from the detergent drawer during spinning. Interrupt programme by means of the «Quick Wash» button. To eliminate this problem proceed as for the error message «Water level too high».
▶ In future, please reduce the detergent quantity (if

required use washing powder instead of liquid detergent).

Machine leaks, puddles and/or water stains form on the floor:

▶ Detergent dose too high. Reduce detergent dose in the future.
▶ Check whether the supply and drain hose connections are watertight and have been effected properly.

Spinning and noise

Pump noise:

- No malfunction! Intake noise and «Emptying» noise (i.e. when the tank is sucked empty) by the detergent solution pump is normal.

Repeated spinning:

● The imbalance control system detected an imbalance and is rectifying the imbalance by spinning repeatedly.

Poor spin result:

- The imbalance control system has detected an imbalance that it was unable to rectify. With underloads or critical laundry pieces such as bath mats, the laundry is insufficiently distributed. The spin speed is reduced depending on the load and imbalance, safeguarding the appliance against being overstressed.

Loud noise and «machine movements» during spinning:

▶ The transport securing devices have not been removed. See the information in the Setting-up Instructions!
▶ Machine feet were not locked when setting-up the machine. Relevel the machine with a spirit level and securely lock the feet as described in the Installation Instructions.

Programme duration extended:

● The machine has recognised foam and implemented remedy. No error.
● The machine has recognised imbalance and implemented remedy. No error
- The machine has recognised excessive soiling and/or too turbid rinse water and has extended the programme. No error.
