SECTION 5: WASHING YOUR LAUNDRY 
•  Plug the machine. 
•  Open the tap water. 
First wash cycle 
There may be water left inside your machine after factory tests and trials.It is 
recommended that the first wash cycle should be made without any laundry 
so that carry out this water; pour half a measuring cup of normal allpurpose 
detergent into compartment 2 and select cotton program at 90°C.  
BEFORE WASHING  
Discrimination of your laundry 
•  Discriminate your clothes according to their types (cotton, synthetic, 
sensitive, woolen, etc.),washing temperatures and level of dirtiness. 
•  Never wash your white and coloured clothes together. 
•  Since your new coloured clothes may shed dye on the first wash, 
wash them separately. 
•  Be careful that no metal pieces are found on or in the pockets of your 
clothes, remove if there is any. 
•  Zip and button your clothes. 
•  Remove the plastic or metal hooks of the curtains and laces or place 
them inside a washing bag and tie.

•  Pull the textiles like trousers,knitted fabric,t-shirt and sweat shirt 
inside out. 
•  Wash your small clothes like socks and handkerchiefs in a washing 
bag. 
 
 
 
 
Wash up tol 90 ˚C   Wash up to 60 ˚C Wash up to 30 ˚C     Not washable in 
         washing machine 
Placement of the clothes into the machine 
•  Open the door of your machine. 
•  Fill your clothes in your machine in a well-spread manner. 
•  Place each cloth separately. 
•  When you shut the door of your machine, be careful that no cloth is 
jammed between the cover and the gasket. 
•  Shut the door of your machine tightly otherwise your machine will not 
start the washing process. 
 
Filling detergent in the machine  
The quantity of the detergent that you will fill in your machine depends on the 
following criteria: 
•  Your detergent consumption will change according to the dirtiness 
level of your clothes. For your slightly dirty clothes, do not pre-wash 
and put a small amount of detergent in the compartment no.2 of the 
detergent drawer. 
•  For your excessively dirty clothes, select a program with pre-
washing, fill ¼ portion of the detergent you will put in compartment  
1 in the detergent drawer and the remaining portion in compartment  
2. 
•  In your machine,use the detergents developed especially for 
automatic washing machines. The quantities that will be used for 
your clothes are written on the packing of the detergents. 
•  As the hardness of your water increases, the amount of the 
detergent to be consumed will also increase. 
•  As the amount of your clothes increases, the amount of the 
detergent to be consumed will also increase. 
•  Fill your softener in the softener compartment in your detergent 
drawer. Do not exceed the MAX level. Otherwise, the softener will 
diffuse in the washing water via the siphon. 
•  The softeners with high density should be diluted with some water 
before filling in the drawer. That is because the softener with high 
density obstructs the siphon and prevents the flow of the softener.

compartment of the detergent drawer and arrange the amount of 
fluid detergent according to the levels on this plate.

       with cold water, than should be wiped with glycerine and water 
       and be rinsed with water mixed with vinegar.
