into the main wash compartment. 
Do not put detergent in the prewash 
compartment.
• Extra Rinse
This function enables the machine to 
make another rinsing in addition to the one 
already made after the main wash. Thus, 
the risk for sensitive skins (babies, allergic 
skins, etc.) to be effected by the minimal 
detergent remnants on the laundry can be 
reduced.
• Rinse Hold
If you are not going to unload your 
clothes immediately after the programme

6 Maintenance and cleaning
Service life of the product extends and 
frequently faced problems decrease if 
cleaned at regular intervals.
Cleaning the detergent drawer
Clean the detergent drawer at regular 
intervals (every 4-5 washing cycles) 
as shown below in order to prevent 
accumulation of powder detergent in time.
1.  Press the dotted point on the siphon 
in the softener compartment and pull 
towards you until the compartment is 
removed from the machine.
C If more than normal amount of water 
and softener mixture starts to gather in 
the softener compartment, the siphon 
must be cleaned.
2.  Wash the detergent drawer and the 
siphon with plenty of lukewarm water 
in a washbasin. Wear protective gloves 
or use an appropriate brush to avoid 
touching of the residues in the drawer 
with your skin when cleaning.
3.  Insert the drawer back into its place 
after cleaning and make sure that it is 
seated well.
Cleaning the loading 
door and the drum
Residues of softener, detergent and dirt 
may accumulate in your machine in time 
and may cause unpleasant odours and 
washing complaints. To avoid this, use 
the Drum Cleaning programme. If your 
machine is not featured with Drum Cleaning 
programme, use Cottons-90 programme 
and select Additional Water or Extra Rinse 
auxiliary functions as well. Before starting 
the programme, put max. 100 g of powder 
anti-limescale into the main wash detergent 
compartment (compartment nr. II). If the 
anti-limescale is in tablet form, put only 
one tablet into compartment nr. II. Dry the  inside of the bellow with a clean piece of 
cloth after the programme has come to an 
end. 
C 
Repeat Drum Cleaning process in every 
2 months.
C Use an anti-limescale suitable for the 
washing machines. 
After every washing make sure that no 
foreign substance is left in the drum.
If the holes on the bellow shown in the 
figure is blocked, open the holes using a 
toothpick.
C  Foreign metal substances in your 
machine will cause rust stains. Clean 
the stains on the drum surface by using 
cleaning agents for stainless steel. 
Never use steel wool or wire wool.
Cleaning the body and 
control panel
Wipe the body of the machine with soapy 
water or non-corrosive mild gel detergents 
as necessary, and dry with a soft cloth.
Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean 
the control panel.
A Never use sponge or scrub materials. 
These will damage the painted and 
plastic surfaces.
Cleaning the water intake filters
There is a filter at the end of each water 
intake valve at the rear of the machine 
and also at the end of each water intake 
hose where they are connected to the tap. 
These filters prevent foreign substances 
and dirt in the water to enter the washing 
machine. Filters should be cleaned as they 
do get dirty.  
						

							26EN
1. Close the taps.
2.  Remove the nuts of the water intake 
hoses to access the filters on the water 
intake valves. Clean them with an 
appropriate brush. If the filters are too 
dirty, take them out by means of pliers 
and clean them.
3.  Take out the filters on the flat ends of 
the water intake hoses together with 
the gaskets and clean thoroughly under 
running water.
4.  Replace the gaskets and filters carefully 
in their places and tighten the hose 
nuts by hand.
Draining remaining water and 
cleaning the pump filter
The filter system in your machine prevents 
solid items such as buttons, coins and 
fabric fibers clogging the pump impeller 
during discharge of washing water. Thus, 
the water will be discharged without any 
problem and the service life of the pump 
will extend.
If the machine fails to drain water, the 
pump filter is clogged. Filter must be 
cleaned whenever it is clogged or in every 
3 months. Water must be drained off first 
to clean the pump filter.
In addition, prior to transporting the 
machine (eg., when moving to another 
house) and in case of freezing of the water, 
water may have to be drained completely.
A Foreign substances left in the pump 
filter may damage your machine or may 
cause noise problem.
In order to clean the dirty filter and 
discharge the water:
1.  Unplug the machine to cut off the 
supply power.
A Temperature of the water inside the 
machine may rise up to 90 ºC. To avoid 
burning risk, filter must be cleaned after  the water in the machine cools down.
2.  Open the filter cap.
  If the filter cap is composed of two 
pieces, press the tab on the filter cap 
downwards and pull the piece out 
towards yourself.
If the filter cap is one piece, pull the cap 
from both sides at the top to open.
C You can remove the filter cover by 
slightly pushing downwards with a thin 
plastic tipped tool, through the gap 
above the filter cover. Do not use metal 
tipped tools to remove the cover.
3.  Some of our products have emergency 
draining hose and some does not have. 
Follow the steps below to discharge 
the water.
Discharging the water when the product 
has an emergency draining hose:
a.  Pull the emergency draining hose out 
from its seat
b.  Place a large container at the end 
of the hose. Drain the water into the 
container by pulling out the plug at the 
end of the hose. When the container 
is full, block the inlet of the hose by 
replacing the plug. After the container   
						

							27EN
is emptied, repeat the above procedure 
to drain the water in the machine 
completely.
c.  When draining of water is finished, 
close the end by the plug again and fix 
the hose in its place.
d.  Turn the pump filter to take it out.
Discharging the water when the product 
does not have an emergency draining 
hose:
a.  Place a large container in front of the 
filter to catch water from the filter.
b.  Loosen pump filter (anticlockwise) until 
water starts to flow. Fill the flowing 
water into the container you have 
placed in front of the filter. Always keep 
a piece of cloth handy to absorb any 
spilled water.
c.  When the water inside the machine is 
finished, take out the filter completely 
by turning it.
4.  Clean any residues inside the filter as 
well as fibers, if any, around the pump 
impeller region.
5.  Install the filter.
A If your product has a water jet feature, 
be sure to fit the filter into its housing 
in the pump. Never force the filter 
while installing it into its housing. Seat 
the filter into its place completely. 
Otherwise, water may leak from the 
filter cap.
6.  If the filter cap is composed of two 
pieces, close the filter cap by pressing 
on the tab. If it is one piece, seat the 
tabs in the lower part into their places 
first, and then press the upper part to 
close.
