Installation

Note:

The washing machine is equipped with power cord and plug and needs sewage and tap water connection. Make sure before installation that the wall outlet is at the desired place of installation. Consider the dimension (chapter Technical data) of the product for placing and installation.

Caution

Before initial operation the transport restraints must be removed from the backside of the unit. Operating the washing machine with mounted transport restraints leads to serious damages.
- Keep the transport restraints for later use. Never transport the device without correctly mounted transport restraints!

Fig. 1 Loosen the four transport restraints with a wrench (13 mm) and unscrew them completely. Insert the 4 supplied blind plugs in the holes.

Fig. 2 Place the washing machine on an even, horizontal and steady surface. For levelling the feet are adjustable and can be screwed in or out.

• Unscrew the lock nuts with a open-end wrench (17 mm).
• Turn the feet to the right to screw them in and to the left to unscrew them.
  Use a spirit level to check whether the appliance is leveled. If the appliance is not standing horizontally or is tilting the feet must be adjusted again.
  If the unit is leveled and does not tilt, tighten the nuts with the open-end wrench.

Fig.3 The washing machine must be connected to a drain.

• The drain hose is already fixed to the sewage connection. Pull the hose out of the clamps and unwind it.
• Connect the other end to the drain pipe (option A or B). Observe the max. height of the hose end.

Note:

Suitable hose holders are available as optional accessories.

Fig.4 Connect the water inlet to the water system (3 / 4^ ) using the supplied hose and make sure that everything is connected correctly and firmly. The water pressure must be between 0.05MPa and 1MPa . A pressure reducing valve must be used if the water pressure is exceeds 1MPa .

Note:

If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, allow a certain amount of water to drain until you are sure that the water is clear and free of foreign objects.
If this point is not observed, there is a risk that the water inlet will become clogged and the unit will be damaged.

Fig.5 Plug the mains plug into a suitable socket.

Preparation

Before first use

Make sure the transport restraints on the back of the unit have been removed.
- Remove all accessories and other materials from the washing drum.
Before washing cloth for the first time, run the appliance without any cloth but some detergent in the "Cotton 60^ program, see Start washing.

Operation

Fig. 6 Preparation of the garments

Caution

• Do not wash fabrics that are not suitable for machine wash. Observe the instructions on the care label of the laundry.
• Hard or pointed foreign objects (eg. nails, coins) can damage laundry and components.

• Never wash laundry soaked with gasoline, thinner, alcohol or solvents.

• Check the pockets of all laundry and empty them.
  Before washing, remove dirt, stains and hair from the laundry, eg. by pre-soaking and pre-washing by hand.

• Sort the laundry according to colors and the washing procedures and washing temperatures indicated on the care labels. Do not wash white laundry together with coloured laundry but separate. Newly bought coloured laundry must be washed separately.
• Turn applications such as buttons and embroideries inwards. If necessary, close zippers, buttons or hooks before washing, and tie loose straps or loops together.
• Wash brassiere in a laundry bag to prevent the steel hangers from loosening. In particular, fine textiles such as curtains, crochet work or small articles (socks, handkerchiefs, neckties, etc.) should be washed in a closed laundry bag.
  Always remove removable parts such as hooks, eyelets, e.g. from curtains.

English

During the washing of large and heavy single items such as bedclothes, covers, bath towels, jeans, lined winter jackets, etc., the drum can become unbalanced especially during spinning. To minimize imbalances always wash several clothes together as one load.
- Linting clothes should be washed separately, otherwise you will have visible lint on all clothes, especially on black clothes.

Fig.7 Fill the laundry

• Untangle the garments and place them neatly into the washing drum.
  If possible use the max. loading capacity. Do not overload the washing machine. Do not cram the laundry in the washing drum but load it in a way that the laundry is still being circulated during the washing process. Different sizes and thicknesses of the laundry influence the loading capacity.
• Close the door, making sure that no laundry is trapped between the door and the seal.

Select and filling in detergent

Caution

• Keep detergents out of the reach of children!

• Observe the instructions of the detergent regarding dosage and storage.

• Only use detergents suitable for washing machines and make the right selection, taking into account the kinds of laundry to be washed (cotton, colored, white etc.).

• Do not use bleach, as it can damage the washing machine and laundry.

Fig. 8 1. Open the detergent drawer.

Note the different compartments:
A: Detergent for main wash, option 1 for washing powder, option 2 for liquid detergent
B: Fabric softener for rinsing
C: Detergent for pre-wash
2. Fill in laundry detergent and fabric softener according to manufacturer's instructions.
Note on foam detection: If too much detergent is used, excessive foam is formed. The foam formation is checked and excessive foam is removed.
3. Close the detergent drawer by pushing it in completely.

English

Start washing

1. Turn on the washing machine with the Aan/ Uit switch.
2. Use the program selector to select a suitable program and, if necessary, a suitable additional function. Please refer to the following Program table.
3. Use the Temp. button to change the temperature if the preset temperature does not meet your requirements. The higher the temperature the more energy is consumed.
4. If necessary use the Centrifugeren button to select a different spin speed if the preset speed does not meet your requirements. The higher the spin speed, the drier but also more creased the laundry is. High speeds also reduce the life of the washing machine.

Note:

Only use low spin speeds for delicate garments.

1. By pressing the Functie button, select one of the additional functions, Voorwas (pre-wash) or Extra Spoelen(Extra rinse), if necessary.
2. Start the washing process by pressing the Start/Pauze button.

3. Press the timer button Uit gestelde Start to set a later time for the machine to start. By pressing the button several times a start time of 1 to 24 hours can be set in 1-hour increments. To do so, follow the steps 1 to 5, then use the Uit gestelde Start button to set the start time, wait until the display shows the wash time and then press the Start/Pauze button. If the preset time has elapsed, the washing machine will automatically turn on and the washing time will be shown on the display.

4. You can also create your own program and save it under program point Mijn Programma (My cycle). Turn the program selector to your desired program. Set the required temperature, spin speed and special functions. Then press the Centrifugeren button for 3 seconds to save the settings. The program remains stored and can be changed at any time as described above.

Caution

The door may only be opened if the appliance is not running, e.g. after washing program is finished. Do not try to open the door while the appliance is running.
