C Never move the product without the transportation safety bolts properly fixed in place! Connecting water supply C The water supply pressure required to run the product is between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 1 MPa). It is necessary to have 10 – 80 liters of water flowing from the fully open tap in one minute to have your machine run smoothly. Attach a pressure reducing valve if water pressure is higher. C If you are going to use the double water-inlet product as a single (cold) water-inlet unit, you must install the supplied stopper to the hot water valve before operating the product. (Applies for the products supplied with a blind stopper group.) C If you want to use both water inlets of the product, connect the hot water hose after removing the stopper and gasket group from the hot water valve. (Applies for the products supplied with a blind stopper group.) A Models with a single water inlet should not be connected to the hot water tap. In such a case the laundry will get damaged or the product will switch to protection mode and will not operate. A Do not use old or used water inlet hoses on the new product. It may cause stains on your laundry. 1. Connect the special hoses supplied with the product to the water inlets on the product. Red hose (left) (max. 90 ºC) is for hot water inlet, blue hose (right) (max. 25 ºC) is for cold water inlet. A Ensure that the cold and hot water connections are made correctly when installing the product. Otherwise, your laundry will come out hot at the end of the washing process and wear out.
4EN 2. Tighten all hose nuts by hand. Never use a wrench when tightening the nuts. 3. Open the taps completely after making the hose connection to check for water leaks at the connection points. If any leaks occur, turn off the tap and remove the nut. Retighten the nut carefully after checking the seal. To prevent water leakages and damages caused by them, keep the taps closed when the machine is not in use. Connecting to the drain • The end of the drain hose must be directly connected to the wastewater drain or to the washbasin. A Your house will be flooded if the hose comes out of its housing during water discharge. Moreover, there is risk of scalding due to high washing temperatures! To prevent such situations and to ensure smooth water intake and discharge of the machine, fix the end of the discharge hose tightly so that it cannot come out. • The hose should be attached to a height of at least 40 cm, and 100 cm at most. • In case the hose is elevated after laying it on the floor level or close to the ground (less than 40 cm above the ground), water discharge becomes more difficult and the laundry may come out excessively wet. Therefore, follow the heights described in the figure. • To prevent flowing of dirty water back into the machine and to allow for easy discharge, do not immerse the hose end into the dirty water or drive it in the drain more than 15 cm. If it is too long, cut it short. • The end of the hose should not be bent, it should not be stepped on and the hose must not be pinched between the drain and the machine. • If the length of the hose is too short, use it by adding an original extension hose. Length of the hose may not be longer than 3.2 m. To avoid water leak failures, the connection between the extension hose and the drain hose of the product must be fitted well with an appropriate clamp as not to come off and leak. Adjusting the feet A In order to ensure that the product operates more silent and vibration-free, it must stand level and balanced on its feet. Balance the machine by adjusting the feet. Otherwise, the product may move from its place and cause crushing and vibration problems. 1. Loosen the lock nuts on the feet by hand. 2. Adjust the feet until the product stands level and balanced. 3. Tighten all lock nuts again by hand. A Do not use any tools to loosen the lock nuts. Otherwise, they will get damaged. Electrical connection Connect the product to a grounded outlet protected by a fuse complying with the values in the "Technical specifications" table. Our company shall not be liable for any damages that will arise when the product is used without grounding in accordance with the local regulations. • Connection must comply with national regulations. • The voltage and allowed fuse or breaker protection are specified in the “Technical specifications” section. If the current value of the fuse or breaker in the house is less than 16 Amps, have a qualified electrician install a 16 Amp fuse. • The specified voltage must be equal to your mains voltage. • Do not make connections via extension cables or multi-plugs. B Damaged power cables must be replaced by the Authorized Service Agents.

C Never move the product without the transportation safety bolts properly fixed in place! 3 Preparation Things to be done for energy saving Following information will help you use the product in an ecological and energy-efficient manner. • Operate the product in the highest capacity allowed by the programme you have selected, but do not overload; see, "Programme and consumption table". • Always follow the instructions on the detergent packaging. • Wash slightly soiled laundry at low temperatures. • Use faster programmes for small quantities of lightly soiled laundry. • Do not use prewash and high temperatures for laundry that is not heavily soiled or stained. • Do not use detergent in excess of the amount recommended on the detergent package. Sorting the laundry • Sort laundry according to type of fabric, colour, and degree of soiling and allowable water temperature. • Always obey the instructions given on the garment tags. Preparing laundry for washing • Laundry items with metal attachments such as, underwired bras, belt buckles or metal buttons will damage the machine. Remove the metal pieces or wash the clothes by putting them in a laundry bag or pillow case. • Take out all substances in the pockets such as coins, pens and paper clips, and turn pockets inside out and brush. Such objects may damage the product or cause noise problem. • Put small size clothes such as infant's socks and nylon stockings in a laundry bag or pillow case. • Place curtains in without compressing them. Remove curtain attachment items. • Fasten zippers, sew loose buttons and mend rips and tears. • Wash “machine washable” or “hand washable” labeled products only with an appropriate programme. • Do not wash colours and whites together. New, dark coloured cottons release a lot of dye. Wash them separately. • Use only dyes/colour changers and limescale removers suitable for machine wash. Always follow the instructions on the package. • Laundry that are subjected to materials such as flour, lime dust, milk powder, etc. intensely
6EN must be shaken off before placing into the machine. Such dusts and powders on the laundry may build up on the inner parts of the machine in time and can cause damage. Correct load capacity The maximum load capacity depends on the type of laundry, the degree of soiling and the washing programme desired. The machine automatically adjusts the amount of water according to the weight of the loaded laundry. A Follow the information in the “Programme and consumption table”. When overloaded, machine's washing performance will drop. Moreover, noise and vibration problems may occur. Loading the laundry • Open the loading door. • Place laundry items loosely into the machine. • Push the loading door to close until you hear a locking sound. Ensure that no items are caught in the door. C The loading door is locked while a programme is running. The door can only be opened a while after the programme comes to an end. A In case of misplacing the laundry, noise and vibration problems may occur in the machine. Using detergent and softener Detergent Drawer The detergent drawer is composed of three compartments: - (I) for prewash - (II) for main wash – () for softener – (*) in addition, there is siphon piece in the softener compartment. C The detergent dispenser may be in two different types according to the model of your machine as seen above. Detergent, softener and other cleaning agents • Add detergent and softener before starting the washing programme. • Never open the detergent drawer while the washing programme is running! • When using a programme without prewash, do not put any detergent into the prewash compartment (compartment nr. I). • In a programme with prewash, do not put liquid detergent into the prewash compartment (compartment nr. I). • Do not select a programme with prewash if you are using a detergent bag or dispensing ball. Place the detergent bag or the dispensing ball directly among the laundry in the machine. • If you are using liquid detergent, do not forget to place the liquid detergent cup into the main wash compartment (compartment nr. II). Choosing the detergent type The type of detergent to be used depends on the type and colour of the fabric. • Use different detergents for coloured and white laundry. • Wash your delicate clothes only with special detergents (liquid detergent, wool shampoo, etc.) used solely for delicate clothes. • Wash woolens with special detergent made specifically for woolens. A Use only detergents manufactured specifically for washing machines. A Do not use soap powder. Adjusting detergent amount The amount of washing detergent to be used depends on the amount of laundry, the degree of soiling and water hardness. Read the manufacturer's instructions on the detergent package carefully and follow the dosage values. • Do not use amounts exceeding the dosage quantities recommended on the detergent package to avoid problems of excessive foam, poor rinsing, financial savings and finally, environmental protection. • Use lesser detergent for small amounts or lightly soiled clothes. • Use concentrated detergents in the recommended dosage. Using softeners Pour the softener into the softener compartment of the detergent drawer. • Use the dosages recommended on the package. • Do not exceed the (>max
7EN Using liquid detergents If the product contains a liquid detergent cup: • Make sure that you have placed the liquid detergent cup in compartment nr. "II". • Use the detergent manufacturer's measuring cup and follow the instructions on the package. • Use the dosages recommended on the package. • If the liquid detergent has lost its fluidity, dilute it with water before putting in the detergent cup. If the product does not contain a liquid detergent cup: • Do not use liquid detergent for the prewash in a programme with prewash. • Use the detergent manufacturer's measuring cup and follow the instructions on the package. • Liquid detergent stains your clothes when used with Delayed Start function. If you are going to use the Delayed Start function, do not use liquid detergent. Using gel and tablet detergent When using tablet, gel, etc. detergents, read the manufacturer's instructions on the detergent package carefully and follow the dosage values. If there is not any instruction on the package, apply the following. • If the gel detergent thickness is fluidal and your machine does not contain a special liquid detergent cup, put the gel detergent into the main wash detergent compartment during first water intake. If your machine contains a liquid detergent cup, fill the detergent into this cup before starting the programme. • If the gel detergent thickness is not fluidal or in the shape of capsule liquid tablet, put it directly into the drum before washing. • Put tablet detergents into the detergent compartment or directly into the drum before washing. C Tablet detergents may leave residues in the detergent compartment. If you encounter such a case, place the tablet detergent between the laundry, close to the lower part of the drum in future washings. C Use the tablet or gel detergent without selecting the prewash function. Using bleaches • Select a programme with prewash and add the bleaching agent at the beginning of the prewash. Do not put detergent in the prewash compartment. As an alternative application, select a programme with extra rinse and add the bleaching agent while the machine is taking water from the detergent compartment during first rinsing step. • Do not use bleaching agent and detergent by mixing them. • Use just a little amount (approx. 50 ml) of bleaching agent and rinse the clothes very well as it causes skin irritation. Do not pour the bleaching agent onto the clothes and do not use it for coloured clothes. • When using oxygen based bleaches, follow the instructions on the package and select a programme that washes at a lower temperature. • Oxygen based bleaches can be used together with detergents; however, if its thickness is not the same with the detergent, put the detergent first into the compartment nr. "II" in the detergent drawer and wait until the detergent flows while the machine is taking in water. Add the bleaching agent from the same compartment while the machine is still taking in water. Using limescale remover • When required, use limescale removers manufactured specifically for washing machines only. • Always follow instructions on the package.
