Before the first wash

1. Open the detergent drawer.
2. Pour approx. 1 litre of water through the detergent drawer into the

washing machine.
This closes the water container when the next programme is started
and the economy valve can function properly.

3. In order to remove any residues from the drum and water container

which may have been left during manufacturing, perform the first
wash cycle without any washing in the machine. Programme:

(COTTONS/LINEN) 60, press

(QUICK WASH), add approx. 1/4

measuring cup of washing powder.

Preparing and sorting washing

Preparing washing
• Empty pockets. Remove foreign bodies (e. g. coins, paper clips, nails,

etc.).

• Do up zips, button up covers to prevent damage to washing.
• Remove the runners from net curtains or cover them with a net or a

bag.

• Wash sensitive and small items in a net or a pillow case, e.g. net cur-

tains, tights, socks, handkerchiefs, bras.

Important! Bras and other items containing wires should only be
washed in a net bag. The wires can work loose and damage the appli-
ance.

Sorting washing
• By colour: Wash white and coloured washing separately. Washing can

run.

• By temperature, type of washing and care symbol.
Important! Do not wash fabrics with care symbol

G (= do not wash!)

in the washing machine.
