Opening the door

the delay time) the door is locked, if you need
to open it, set first the machine to PAUSE by
pressing the button 8.
If the icon 7.10 disappears from the display,
the door can be opened.
If the icon 7.10 does not go off, this means

door!
If you cannot open the door but you need to
open it you have to switch the...

Maximum loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the
washing programme charts.
General rules:
•Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly
packed;
•Synthetics: drum no more than half full;
•Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no
more than one third full.
Washing a maximum load makes the most
efficient use of water and energy.
For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load
size.

Degrees of water hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called “de-
grees” of hardness. Information on hardness
of the water in your area can be obtained
from the relevant water supply company, or
from your local authority.
A water softener must be added when
water has a medium-high degree of
hardness (from degree of hardness II).
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
The quantity of detergent can then al-
ways be adjusted to degree of hardness
I (= soft).

Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It
is a good idea to periodically use a water
softening powder in the machine. Do this
separately from any laundry washing, and
according to the softening powder manufac-
turers instructions. This will help to prevent
the formation of lime deposits.
After each wash
Leave the door open for a while. This helps
to prevent mould and stagnant smells form-
ing inside the appliance. Keeping the door
open after a wash will also help to preserve
the door seal....

6. Insert the detergent dispenser drawer in
the guide rails and push it in.
Washing drum
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due to
rusting foreign bodies in the washing or tap
water containing iron.
Important! Do not clean the drum with
acidic descaling agents, scouring agents
containing chlorine or iron or steel wool.
1. Remove any rust deposits on the drum
with a cleaning agent for stainless steel.
2. Run a washing cycle without any washing
to clean off any cleaning agent residues.
