WARNING - To reduce the risk of
fire, electric shock or injury to
persons while using your appliance
follow basic safety precautions,
including the following:
Read all instructions before using
the appliance.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded.
In the event of malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the
risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric
current. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING - Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or serviceman if you are in
doubt as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance - if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
Do not allow children to play on or
in the appliance. Close supervision
is necessary when the appliance is
used near children.
Do not wash articles that have
been previously cleaned, washed,
soaked or spotted with gasoline,
dry-cleaning solvents or other
flammable substances. These articles
give off vapors that could ignite or
explode. Do not add these items to the
washload.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen
gas may be produced in a hot
water system that has not been used
for 2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS
IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system
has not been used for such a period,
turn on all hot water faucets and let the
water flow from each for several
minutes before using the washing
machine. This will release any built-up
hydrogen gas. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time, the gas is
flammable.
Before the appliance is removed
for service or discarded, remove
the door.
Do not reach into the appliance if
the drum is moving.
Do not install or store this
appliance where it will be exposed
to the weather.
Do not tamper with
the controls.
Do not repair or replace any part of
the appliance or attempt any
servicing unless specifically
recommended in these operating
instructions.

Guide to the washer
5
The appliance must be correctly
installed and connected before the
first use. Please see the "Installation
instructions".
For safety reasons, it is not possible to
run a spin cycle before the first use. A
program must be run without laundry
and without detergent to flush out any
residual water from the factory testing
process, as well as to activate the spin
cycle. Using detergent can cause
sudsing and ball valve activation,
resulting in the need to use the
maximum amount of detergent in the
future.
^ Turn on the water valve.
^ Press the "On/Off" button.
^ Select the "Extra White" program with
the program buttons.
^ Press the "Start/Stop T" button.
Once the program ends, the washer
can be used for laundry.
Before using for the first time
6
1. Prepare and sort the laundry
^
Empty all pockets.
,
Foreign objects left in pockets
(e.g. nails, coins, paper clips, etc.)
can cause damage to clothes and
the machine.
^
Sort the laundry.
Only wash items in the machine that are
labeled machine washable by the
manufacturer. Most garments have a
fabric care label in the collar or side
seam. Sort the laundry by care label
and color.
^
Pretreat stains.
Tough stains (e.g. blood, egg, coffee,
tea, etc.) or badly soiled areas (e.g.
collars and cuffs) should be penetrated
with a stain remover or a paste made
from powdered detergent and warm
water.
,
Do not use chemical solvents in
the machine.
General tips
–
Dark fabrics often bleed the first few
times they are washed. They should
be washed seperately several times
before being included in a mixed
load.
–
Remove any lead weights or strips
from curtains before washing.
–
Loose undergarment underwires
should be removed or sewn in place
before washing.
–
Woolens and knitted garments
should be turned inside out.
– Close zippers and hooks and eyes
before washing.
– Comforter covers and pillowcases
should be fastened in order to
prevent small items from rolling
inside of them.
Do not machine wash items if it is not
recommended on the fabric care label.

2. Load the laundry
^
Turn on the washer using the "On/Off"
button.
^
Open the drum door using the "Door"
button.
^
Load the laundry into the drum. For
best results, wash mixed loads of
small and large items. This will
improve washing effectiveness and
help distribute the load evenly.
Note: Overloading the washer will
cause poor wash results and wrinkling.
^ Close the drum door.
To prevent damage to the door seal
and clothing, make sure that there
are no clothes caught between the
drum door and the seal.
3. Select a program

6. Add detergent
For optimum wash results, it is
important to use the correct amount of
detergent.
Too little detergent may cause:
–
Ineffective cleaning of laundry;
fabrics may become gray and stiff
over time.
–
Grease stains on the laundry.
–
Hard water deposits on the heating
element.
Too much detergent may cause:
– Oversudsing with minimal drum
movement; poor wash, rinse and
spin results.
– Higher water consumption through
an automatic, additional rinse cycle.
– Higher environmental burden.
^
Pull out the detergent dispenser
drawer and add detergent to the
compartments.
j = Detergent for the main wash
i = Only add detergent (
1
/
4
of the
total recommended amount of
detergent) to this compartment
if the "Heavy Soil" wash option
is selected.
§ = Fabric softener or liquid starch.
^
Close the detergent dispenser
drawer.
,
Do not use detergents
containing chemical solvents.
Using the washer
14
Use only high-efficiency, low
sudsing laundry detergent
formulated for front loading washing
machines.
For wool and wool blend fabrics, use a
detergent specially formulated for
woolens.
Follow instructions on the detergent
packaging for the correct use and
amount of detergent. Adjust the amount
of detergent if the load is smaller or
more or less soiled than normal.
Add detergent to the main wash
compartment j at the beginning of
each wash program.
Only add detergent (
1
/
4
total
recommended amount) to compartment
i if the "Heavy Soil" option was
selected.
Liquid detergent insert
A liquid detergent dispenser is
supplied with the machine.
^
If you are washing with liquid
detergent, use the liquid detergent
insert in the main wash compartment
j.
The liquid detergent insert helps to
measure the correct detergent amount.
It will prevent the detergent for the main
wash from being used during the
prewash when the "Heavy soil" option is
used.
Remove the insert from the
compartment j when powder
detergent is used.
,
Do not use chlorine bleach!
Detergent
15
The amount of detergent used
depends on the level of soiling:
Light soiling
No soiling or stains are visible.
Normal soiling
Some visible soiling or a few light
stains.
Heavy soiling
Very visible soiling or stains.
The size of the load and the water
hardness level in your area have an
impact on the amount of detergent
necessary to obtain optimum wash
results. If you do not know the water
hardness level in your area, contact
your local water authority.

indicate the correct amount to use in
your machine. Add the detergent, then
add the water softener. You can then
use the recommended amount of
detergent for water hardness level I.

program will make fabrics feel softer
and will reduce static cling in the dryer.
^
Open the lid of the fabric softener
compartment §.
^ Pour the amount of liquid fabric
softener into the compartment
according to the manufacturer’s
instructions. Do not exceed the
maximum fill level marked inside the
compartment, as the excess will
prematurely activate the siphon and
be wasted.
^
Close the compartment lid and push
in the dispenser drawer.
The fabric softener will automatically be
dispensed during the final rinse cycle.
A small amount of water will remain in
the compartment at the end of the
program.
Never mix fabric softener and starch
together in the fabric softener
compartment §. This will clog the
dispenser.
Detergent
17
Starch
Mild liquid starch is a synthetic starch
wash used to give fabrics some
stiffness. Starching can be included in
any wash program as part of the final
rinse.
^
Open the fabric softener
compartment §.
^ Add the recommended amount of
starch to the compartment.
Do not exceed the maximum level
mark.
^
Close the compartment lid and push
in the dispenser drawer.

Quick Guide
Cleaning the water inlet filters
The washer has two water inlet filters to
protect each inlet valve. These filters
should be checked every 6 months and
cleaned, if necessary. (This may need
to be performed more frequently with
some water supplies).
Cleaning the inlet hose filter
^
Turn off the water valve.
^
Unscrew the inlet hose from the valve
by turning the connector
counterclockwise using a wrench, if
necessary.
^
Remove the rubber seal, 1, from the
connector.
^
Using needle nose pliers, grasp the
plastic filter, 2, and pull it out of the
hose connector.
^
Clean the filter under running water
and carefully remove any large
particles. Replace the filter, seal and
reconnect the hose.
^
Slowly turn on the valve and check
for leaks.
,
Inspect the hose regularly. The
hose must be in good condition to
withstand high water pressure. The
hose should be replaced if there are
cracks in the surface, or if it has
been otherwise damaged or cut.
Cleaning the filter in the inlet
valve
^
Using a wrench, carefully loosen and
remove the plastic hose connector on
the inlet valve.
^ Using needle nose pliers, remove the
plastic filter (see illustration). Rinse
under water and return parts.
Both filters must be put back in
place after cleaning.
