How to Set up:
Notice:
Select items of interest such as Temperature, Wash, Rinse, Spin, and so on.
Your selection can be saved only if you set up all steps as like Wash+Rinse+Spin.
Turn the Select Course dial to select other courses.
Turn power off and turn on again to cancel Memory Course.
Type of fabric care label symbol : Sort laundry into cottons, mixed fibers, synthetics,
silks, wools and rayon.
Colour : Divide whites and colours. Wash new, coloured items separately.
Size: Placing items of different sizes in the same load will improve the washing action.
Sensitivity: Wash delicate items separately, using the Delicate wash program for pure
new wool, curtains and silk articles. Check the labels on the items you are washing or
refer to the fabric care chart in the appendix.
Emptying pockets : Coins, safety pins and similar items can damage linen, the
washing machine drum, and the water tank.
Securing fasteners : Close zippers and fasten buttons or hooks; loose belts or ribbons
should be tied together.
Prewashing cotton : Your new washing machine, combined with modern detergents,
will give perfect washing results, thus saving energy, time, water and detergent. However,
if your cotton is particularly dirty, use a prewash with a protein-based detergent.
Determining load capacity: Do not overload the washing machine or your laundry
may not wash properly. Use the chart below to determine the load capacity for the type of
laundry you are washing.
Fabric Type
Cotton /Coloured
Baby cotton /Towel /Bedding
Quick
Wools /Delicates
Load Capacity

Detergent tips: The type of detergent you should use is based on the type of fabric
(cotton, synthetic, delicate items, wool), colour, wash temperature, degree and type of
soiling. Always use "low suds" laundry soap, which is designed for automatic washing
machines.
Follow the detergent manufacturer's recommendations based upon the weight of the
laundry, the degree of soiling, and the hardness of the water in your area. If you do not
know how hard your water is, ask your water authority.
Note:
Keep detergents and additives in a safe, dry place out of the reach of children.

Clean the debris filter.
Make sure the drainage hose is installed correctly.
Laundry load is unbalanced; loosen any tangled laundry.
If only one item of clothing needs washing, such as a bathrobe
or jeans, the final spin result might be unsatisfactory and an
"UE" error message will be shown in the display window.
This is when the internal temperature does not go down
below a certain degree in washing or hydrating.

Electrical warnings
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, and other injuries, keep these safety precautions in
mind:
Operate the appliance only from the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied to your home, consult your
appliance dealer or local power company.
Use only a grounded or polarized outlet. For your safety, this appliance is equipped
with a polarized alternating current line plug having one blade wider than the other.
This plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. If you are unable to insert the
plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still doesn't fit, contact
your electrician to replace your outlet.
Protect the power cord. Power supply cords should be routed so that they are
unlikely to be walked on or pinched by items placed on or against them. Pay
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where
they exit from the unit.
Do not overload the wall outlet or extension cords. Overloading can result in fire or
electric shock.
Appendix
Protecting the environment
Do not exceed the detergent quantities recommended in the detergent manufacturers' instructions.
Use stain removal products and bleaches before the wash cycle only when strictly
necessary.
Save water and electricity by only washing full loads (the exact amount depends
upon the program used).
Declaration of conformity
This appliance complies with European safety standards, EC directive 93/68 and EN
Standard 60335.
