Before using your machine for the first time

Transport protection

Has the transport protection been re-

moved? If not, see the “Transport protec-

tion” chapter.

Packing material

Sort waste in accordance with local guide-

lines.

Washer door

The washer door cannot be opened until

the machine is connected to the electricity

supply.

To open the door manually, see the sec-

tion entitled “The door will not open” in the

“Troubleshooting” chapter.

It is not possible to start the machine with

the door open.

To open the door during an ongoing pro-

gramme, see the section entitled “Close the

door and press Start”.

Checking water hardness

The quantity of detergent required depends

on water hardness, among other things.

Phone your local Water Board to check the

water hardness in your area.

Transport/ Winter storage

If the machine is to be transported or stored

in unheated premises where the tempera-

ture can fall below freezing, do as follows:

• Empty the filter and drainage pump (see

the “Care and cleaning” chapter).

• Shut off the water to the washing ma-

chine, loosen the supply hose to the intake

valve and let the water run out from the

valve and hose.

Disposal

When the machine has reached the end of

its service life and is to be disposed of, it

should immediately be made unusable.

Contact your local authority for information

about where your machine should be dis-

posed of and recycled in the proper way.

The machine is manufactured and labelled

for recycling.

General

• Read and keep the operating instructions!

• Installation of water and electricity, if re-

quired, should be carried out by a qualified

professional.

• The machine should only be used for

washing items as described in these in-

structions - it is not intended for dry clean-

ing!

• Use only detergent intended for machine

washing!

• Remove any transport protection devices

before using the machine (see the “Trans-

port protection” chapter).

• Repairs and maintenance relating to

safety or performance must be carried out

by a qualified professional.

Installation

See the “Installation” chapter.

Overflow guard function

If the machine’s water level rises above

the normal level, the overflow guard func-

tion begins to pump water out and shuts off

the water intake. If the water level has not

dropped within 60 seconds, the programme

is terminated.

Safety instructions

Child safety

Keep an eye on children!

Always close the door and start the pro-

gramme immediately once you have added

detergent.

Do not allow small children to use or play

with the washing machine.

Store detergent and fabric softener out of

the reach of children!

Automatic door opening

The machine comes with an automatic door

opening function, which means that the

door opens automatically once the pro-

gramme has finished.

If you wish to prevent small children or

pets from climbing into the machine, you

can deactivate the automatic door opening

function.

1. Turn off the machine using the main

power switch.

2. Press the Door Open button while simul-

taneously pressing the main power switch.

Release the buttons.

3. Press the Key button and the red fields

go out. Automatic door opening is now

deactivated.

4. Press the Start/Stop button to store the

setting.

If you want to reactivate the function, follow

the instructions above, but when you press

the Key button (point 3) the red fields light

up. Store the setting by pressing the Start/

Stop button.

Laundry labels

Look at the item’s laundry label. The table

below indicates suitable wash programmes

for various materials and wash loads.

Coloured cotton

Coloured cotton items labelled for hot

washing (60°C) should be washed at 60ºC

the first time in order to remove any excess

dye. If you do not do so, there is a risk that

the colour will run. Use detergent without

bleach in order to preserve the colour of the

fabric.

Delicates

Unbleached linen

Unbleached linen fabrics should be washed

at 60°C, using detergent containing no

bleach or optical whiteners. Heavily-soiled

linen can occasionally be washed at higher

temperatures, but not too often since the

heat can destroy the linen’s shine and

strength.

Advice and tips before washing

Here are some tips that may help you be-

fore washing.

Sorting your laundry

Sort items according to:

• how soiled they are

• colour

• material

Clothing

• Do up zips so that they don’t harm fabrics.

• New coloured items may contain excess

dye and should therefore be washed sepa-

rately the first few times.

• Turn delicate items inside out. This reduc-

es the risk of burling and fading.

• Empty pockets and wash them inside out

if possible!

Laundry label symbols

Wool and silk

These fabrics are sometimes labelled as

machine washable and sometimes as hand

wash. The machine’s Wool/Hand pro-

gramme is at least as gentle as washing by

hand.

Wool is especially sensitive to processes

such as washing. If you do not want to spin

it, you can squeeze out the water using

terry towels. In this case select No spin. To

find out how to select this setting, see the

“Washing” chapter. However, most items

can stand a short spin. Select short spin by

selecting spin speed 800 rpm.

Artificial fibres and synthetic

fibres

These materials require plenty of room if

they are not to become wrinkled. Only fill

the drum half way when washing artificial or

synthetic fibres. Select short spin by select-

ing a spin speed of 800 rpm.

Note!

Viscose and acetates are fragile when wet.

Economy and efficiency

You can save a lot of energy by not using

more intensive programmes than neces-

sary.

• Select Quick if you just need to freshen up

shirts or exercise clothes, for example. This

will save both water and energy.

• If you select a fast spin speed, this re-

duces energy consumption when drying in

a tumble dryer or airing cupboard.

Note!

When using agents for bleaching or stain

removal, there is a risk of rust (corrosion)

and discolouration of the machine.

Environmental concerns also lead us to

discourage the use of strong chemicals.

Washing

Sort your laundry

See the Advice and Tips section be-

fore washing.

Note!

Empty pockets. Coins, nails and the like

can cause damage to the machine and

fabrics.

Turn on the main power

switch

Open the washer door and

load the washing

If the door is closed, press the Key

button (door open). The red field

lights up and the door opens after a few

seconds. Load the laundry. The laundry

programme chart shows how much laundry

can be washed with each programme.

Add detergent and fabric

softener, as required

The detergent packaging will have

recommendations for how much de-

tergent you should use. The machine holds

6.0 kg of laundry. If you only have a small

amount of washing in the machine, you can

reduce the amount of detergent used.

Powder detergent

Pour the powder into the compartment for

the main wash, and pre-wash as well if

desired.

Liquid detergent

When using liquid detergent, follow the de-

tergent manufacturer’s recommendations.

Wash ball or net

If you use a wash ball or net, place it dir-

ectly in the drum and select a programme

without pre-wash.

Note!

Detergent overdosing does not give better

washing results, but merely causes a great-

er impact on the environment.

Try to use less detergent, and increase only

if you are not satisfied with the results.

Fabric softener

Pour the fabric softener into the compart-

ment with the symbol. Use the dosage

given in the recommendations on the fabric

softener package.

Note!

Do not fill above the compartment’s maxi-

mum fill level. Otherwise fabric softener will

run in too early, which impairs the washing

effect.
