make sure that the machine performs water intake and discharge processes without any problem, fix the drain
hose securely.
40 cm
100 cm
• Connect the drain hose to a minimum height of 40
cm and a maximum height of 100 cm.
• In case the drain 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 the waste water to go back into the machine again and to ensure easy drainage, do not
immerse the end of the hose into the waste water or do not insert it into the drain for 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.

– (1) for prewash
– (2) for main wash
– (3) for softener
– ( ) in addition, there is a siphon piece in the
softener compartment.
Detergent, softener and other cleaning agents
• Add detergent and softener before starting the washing programme.
• While the washing cycle is in progress, do not leave the detergent dispenser open!
• When using a programme without prewash, do not put any detergent into the prewash
compartment (compartment nr. "1").
• In a programme with prewash, do not put liquid detergent into the prewash compartment
(compartment nr. "1").
• 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 container into the main
wash compartment (compartment number “2”).
Choosing the detergent type
Detergent type to be used depends on the fabric type and color.
• 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.
• When washing dark coloured clothes and quilts, it is recommended to use liquid detergent.
• Wash woolens with special detergent made specifically for woolens.
A
CAUTION: Use only detergents manufactured specifically for washing machines.
CAUTION: 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.
• 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.
Using softeners

• Put the liquid detergent container into the
compartment no “2”.
• If the liquid detergent lost its fluidity, dilute
it with water before putting it into the
detergent container.
If the product does not contain a liquid detergent cup:
• Do not use liquid detergent for the prewash in a programme with prewash.
• 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
• 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 main wash compartment (compartment nr. "2") or directly into the
drum before washing.
