Water inlet connection

• It is intended for cold-water connection only
• Screw the intake hose on to the tap.
• The washing machine is intended for a water pressure of 1 to 10 bar. If the pressure exceeds 10 bar, a pressure reducing valve must be installed in the water-line. If the pressure is less than 1 bar, the flowrate regulator behind the strainer (in the water inlet connection of the machine) must be removed.
• Check if all hose connections are leaktight.

Drain connection

• Do not kink the drain hose.
• Hang the drain hose over the edge of thge sink or wash basin. The bend in the hose must not be raised more than 1m above the surface on which your machine stands (so that drainage can function properly).
• Secure the drain hose with the hose holder supplied. Pull the hose holder to the centre of the hose bend onto the drain hose and secure against slipping. If required, use a weight or any other suitable means to ensure that the drain hose cannot slip.
• Tight connection to a non-ventilated drain requires special steps and should be carried out by a plumber only.

Using the correct amount of detergent, is determined by the following factors:

size and type of your washing machine
- your water supply (hard or soft water)
- degree of soiling of your laundry
- amount of fabric in your drum
- type and brand of detergent used

Before adding detergent please check if

• Your washing machine is loaded to its max capacity -> this saves energy and water
• Your laundry is badly soiled ie greasy, ground in dirt etc
• The amount of detergent to be used tallys with the type of water (ie hard / soft) according to detergent manufacturers instructions
• The detergent is suitable for the selected programme, temperature, and type of fabric to be washed.

Protection of the environment

Your washing machine protects the environment, by saving up to 30% of detergent because:

• Your machine is fitted with an ECO - Valve
  (This prevents any unused detergent from being discharged)
• The amount of powder needed as indicated by detergent manufacturers on their packaging is designed for 5kg machines
  --> Your machine however has a max capacity of 3 kg.
  -->Use less for smaller quantities.

Compartment I

pre-wash, bleach or spotting agents

Compartment II

main-wash

Compartment III

conditioner, softening agents

Advise

The manufacturer recommends for an additional water softening devise to be fitted to your machine, if you live in an area with "normal" water, since this significantly reduces the amount of detergent needed (see soft water).

• Flushing problems (e.g. residues in the detergent chamber) may be possible with highly concentrated powder products. In this case the measuring cups (if available) in the detergent packages should be used.
• With some detergents (liquid or powder) foam may develop even in the final spin cycle. This does not impair the rinsing result.
• White detergent residues may be visible, after completion of a wash cycle particularly on dark textiles. This is due to insufficient rinsing. Generally this is the insoluble water softeners in modern phosphate-free detergents.

Remedy: Shake or brush it off, try another detergent or use a liquid detergent.

• Before putting the laundry in the machine check whether there are any metal parts on or in the laundry that could work loose e.g. metal buttons, bra wiring etc. Such parts could work into the machine and cause a rattling noise.

Repairs of this kind cannot be undertaken free of charge, even during the guarantee period.
