3.3 Electrical Connection

- Your Washing Machine requires a 220-240V, 50Hz mains supply.

• The mains cord of your washing machine is equipped with an earthed plug. This plug should always be inserted to an earthed socket of 10 amps.
• If you do not have a suitable socket and fuse conforming with this, please ensure the work is carried out by a qualified electrician.
  • We do not take responsibility for damage that occurs due to the use of ungrounded equipment.

NOTE: Operating your machine

with low voltage will cause the life cycle of your machine to be reduced and its performance to be restricted.

3.4 Water Inlet Hose Connection

1. Your machine may have either a single water inlet connection (cold) or double water inlet connection (hot and cold) depending on the machine specifications. The white capped hose

should be connected to cold water inlet and red capped hose to the hot water inlet (if applicable).

• To prevent water leaks at the joints, either 1 or 2 nuts (depending on your machine's specifications) are supplied in the packaging with the hose. Fit these nuts to the end(s) of the water inlet hose that connect to the water supply.
• Connect new water inlet hoses to a 34 ", threaded tap.

- Connect the white capped end of the water inlet hose to the white water inlet valve on the rear side of the machine and the red capped end of the hose to the red water inlet valve (if applicable).

• Hand tighten the connections. If in any doubt, consult a qualified plumber.

• Water flow with pressure of 0.1-1 Mpa will allow your machine to operate at optimum efficiency (pressure of 0.1 Mpa means that more than 8 litres of water per minute will flow through a fully opened tap).

• Once you have made all of the connections, carefully turn the water supply on and check for leaks.

• Ensure that the new water inlet hoses are not trapped, kinked, twisted, folded or crushed.
• If your machine has a hot water inlet connection, the temperature of the hot water supply should not be higher than 70^ C.

• Load each item of laundry separately.
• Check that no items of laundry are trapped between the rubber seal and the door.
  • Gently push the door until it clicks shut.

• Make sure the door is fully closed, otherwise the programme will not start.

5.3 Adding Detergent to the Machine

The amount of detergent you will need to put in your machine will depend on the following criteria:

• If your clothes are only slightly soiled, do not pre-wash. Put a small amount of detergent (as specified by the manufacturer) into compartment II of the detergent drawer.
• If your clothes are excessively soiled, select a programme with pre-wash and put 14 of the detergent to be used into compartment I of the detergent drawer and the rest in compartment II.
• Use detergents produced for automatic washing machines. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the

amount of detergent to use.

• In areas of hard water, more detergent will be required.
• The amount of the detergent required will increase with higher washing loads.
• Put softener in the middle compartment of the detergent drawer. Do not exceed the MAX level.

- Thick softeners may cause clogging of the drawer and should be diluted.

- It is possible to use fluid detergents in all programmes without a pre-wash. To do this, slide the fluid detergent level plate (*) into the guides in compartment II of the detergent drawer. Use the lines on the plate as a guide to fill the drawer to the required level.

NOTE: PROGRAMME DURATION MAY CHANGE ACCORDING TO THE COUNT OF LAUNDRY, TAP WATER, AMBIENT TEMPERATURE AND SELECTED OPTIONAL FUNCTIONS.

(*) Due to the short washing time of this programme, we recommend that less detergent is used. The programme may last longer than 15 minutes if your machine detects an uneven load. You can open the door of your machine 2 minutes after the completion of a washing operation. (The 2 minute period is not included in the programme duration).

According to regulation 1015/2010 and 1061/2010, the programme 3 and the programme 4 are respectively the ‘Standard 60°C cotton programme’ and the ‘Standard 40°C cotton programme’.

The Eco 40-60 programme is able to clean normally soiled cotton laundry declared to be washable at 40^ C or 60^ C, together in the same cycle, and that this programme is used to assess the compliance with the EU ecodesign legislation.

• The most efficient programmes in terms of energy consumption are generally those that perform at lower temperatures and longer duration.
• Loading the household washing machine up to the capacity indicated by the manufacturer for the respective programmes will contribute to energy and water savings.
• Program duration, energy consumption and water consumption values may vary according to wash load weight and type, selected extra functions, tap water and ambient temperature.
• It's recommended to use liquid detergent for the washing programmes at low temperature. The amount of detergent to be used may vary depending on the amount of laundry and the level of dirtiness of the laundry. Please follow the detergent manufacturers' recommendations for the amount of the detergent to be used.
• The noise and remaining moisture content are influenced by the spinning speed. The higher spinning speed in the spinning phase, the higher noise and the lower remaining moisture content.
• You can access the product database where the model information is stored by reading the QR code on the energy label.
