NOTICE

Models with a single water inlet

should not be connected to the hot

water tap. Laundry may be dam-

aged or the product may go into

protection mode and not work.

Do not use old or used water inlet

hoses on your new product. This

may cause water leakage in your

product and stains on your laundry.

EN / 14

1. Tighten all hose nuts by hand. Make

sure to tighten all hose connections

completely. Never use a tool when tight-

ening nuts.

2. After completing hose connection, open

the taps all the way and check if there is

any water leakage from the connection

points. In case of a leakage, turn off the

tap and unscrew the nut. Check the seal

and tighten the nut carefully again. To

prevent possible water leaks and dam-

ages that may occur, keep the taps

closed when the product is not in use.

4.6 Connecting the Drain Hose to the

Drain

1. Attach the end of the drain hose directly

to waste water drain, washbasin or

bathtub.

Your house will be flooded if the

water draining hose is dislocated

during water draining. There is also

a risk of burning due to the high

washing temperatures. In order to

prevent such situations and make

sure that the product performs wa-

ter intake and drain processes

without any problem, fix the drain

hose securely.

2. Connect the drain hose to a minimum

height of 40 cm and a maximum height

of 100 cm.

3. Installing the water draining hose at

ground level or close to the floor (40 cm

below) and then raising it makes water

discharge difficult and the laundry may

come out extremely wet. Thus, follow

the heights provided in the figure.

4. To prevent the waste water to go back

into the product 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.

5. 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 product. Otherwise, water

discharge issues may emerge.

6. If the length of the hose is too short, use

it by adding an original extension hose.

The overall length of the hose shall not

be longer than 3.2 m. To prevent water

leaks, always secure the connection

between the extension hose and the

draining hose of the product with a suit-

able clamp so that it does not come off

and cause leaks.

4.7 Adjusting the Feet

NOTICE

In order to ensure that the product

operates more silently and vibra-

tion-free, it must stand level and

balanced on its feet. Adjust the feet

to ensure balance. Otherwise, the

product may move from its place

The detergent drawer comprises of three

compartments:

(1) for prewash - if your model has prewash

function available,

(2) for main washing,

(3) for softener,

( ) a syphon piece in the softener com-

partment,

( ) there is a liquid detergent flap for li-

quid detergent use in the main washing

compartment.

Detergent, Softener and Other Cleaning

Agents

• Add detergent and softener before start-

ing the washing programme.

• Do not leave the detergent drawer open

when the washing programme is on.

• If you are using a programme without

prewashing, do not put detergent in the

prewash compartment (compartment 1).

• If your model has prewash function avail-

able - If you are using a program with pre-

wash, start the product after adding

powder detergent to the prewash and

main wash compartments (compart-

ments 1 and 2).

• If your model has prewash function avail-

able - Do not select a programme with

pre-washing if you are using a detergent

pod or dispensing ball. Place the deter-

gent pod or the dispensing ball directly

among the laundry in the product.

• If you are using a liquid detergent, follow

the directions under “Liquid detergent

use” and hinge down the liquid detergent

flap.

Choosing the Detergent type

Detergent type to be used depends on the

washing programme, fabric type and col-

our.

• Use different detergents for coloured and

white laundry.

• Wash your delicate clothes only with spe-

cial detergents (liquid detergent, wool

shampoo, etc.) intended solely for delic-

ate clothes and on suggested pro-

grammes.

• When washing dark coloured clothes and

quilts, it is recommended to use liquid

detergent.

• Wash woollens on suggested pro-

gramme with special detergent made

specifically for woollens.

• Please review the programme descrip-

tions part for suggested programme for

different textiles.

• All recommendations about detergents

are valid for selectable temperature

range of programmes.

Only detergents, softeners and ad-

ditives suitable for washing ma-

chines should be used.

Do not use soap powder.

Adjusting the Detergent Amount

The amount of detergent depends on the

amount of laundry, how soiled it is and the

water hardness.

• Do not exceed the recommended dosage

values on the detergent packaging in or-

der to eliminate excessive foam and poor

rinsing problems, to save money and pro-

tect the environment.

• Use less detergent for lightly soiled or

small amount of laundry.

Using Softeners

Put the softener in the softener compart-

ment of the detergent drawer.

• Do not exceed the (>max<) level sign in

the softener compartment.

• If the softener is thick, dilute with water

before placing in the softener compart-

ment.

WARNING

Do not use liquid detergents or

other materials with cleaning prop-

erties unless they are intended for

use in washing machines for

softening the laundry.

Using Liquid Detergents

If the Product Has a Liquid Detergent Flap

• Hinge down the liquid detergent flap

when you want to use liquid detergents.

The flap will serve as a barrier for liquid

detergent.

EN / 18

• Clean with water at its place or by remov-

ing from its place when it is necessary.

Do not forget to place the flap in the main

washing compartment (compartment 2)

after cleaning.

• The flap should be up if you will use a

powder detergent.

Use of Gel and Tablet Detergents

• If the detergent is fluid and there is no li-

quid detergent compartment in your

product, place the gel detergent in the

main washing detergent compartment in

first water intake. If your product has a li-

quid detergent compartment, fill the com-

partment with detergent before starting

the programme.

• If the gel detergent is not fluid or is in a

capsule liquid tablet, place directly inside

the drum before washing.

• Put the tablet detergent in the main

washing compartment (compartment 2)

or directly inside the drum before wash-

ing.

Using Starch

• Put in the liquid starch, powder starch or

fabric dye in the softener compartment.

• Do not use softener and starch in the

same washing programme simultan-

eously.

• Wipe the inside of the product with a

damp and clean cloth after using starch.

Using Anti-Limescale

• When necessary, only use anti-limescale

produced for washing machines.

Using Bleach and Decolourants

• Select a programme with pre-washing

and add bleach at the start of pre-wash-

ing. Do not put detergent in the pre-wash

compartment. As an alternative applica-

tion, select a programme with additional

rinsing and add the bleach while the

product is receiving water to the deter-

gent compartment in the first rinsing

step.

• Do not mix and use bleach and detergent

together.

• As bleach may cause skin irritation use

only small amounts (1/2 tea cups - ap-

proximately 50 ml and rinse the laundry

well.

• Do not pour bleach directly onto the laun-

dry.

• Do not use bleach for coloured clothes.

• Select a programme with low temperat-

ure washing while using oxygen-based

decolourants.

• Oxygen-based decolourants can be used

together with detergents. However, if it

does not have the same viscosity as the

detergent, first place the detergent in

compartment no. “2” in the detergent

drawer and wait for the product to rinse

away the detergent during water intake.

Add the decolourant to the same com-

partment while the product continues

taking in water.

temperature. For energy efficiency,

choose the lowest suitable temper-

ature. Longer, low-temperature

washes are often the most effi-

cient.

6.4 Programme Selection

1. According to the "Programme table", de-

termine the programme suitable for the

type, quantity and dirt level of the laun-

dry.

Programs are limited to the highest

spin speed suitable for the fabric

type.

will use, always take into considera-

tion the fabric type, color, degree of

soiling and allowed water temperat-

ure.

2. Select the desired program using the

Program Selection button.

6.5 Programmes

• EnergySpin

It uses your detergent more effectively with

high mechanical action during washing.

This way, it maintains your washing quality

without the need for prolonged heating of

your laundry, reducing your energy con-

sumption.

This technology is used in programs that

include symbols, bold serigraphy printing or

coloring displayed on the panel.

• Cottons Eco

Use to wash your normally soiled, durable

cotton and linen laundry. Although it

washes longer than all other programmes,

it provides high energy and water savings.

Actual water temperature may be different

from the stated wash temperature. When

you load the machine with less laundry

(e.g. ½ capacity or less), periods in pro-

gramme stages may automatically get

shorter. In this case, energy and water con-

sumption will decrease.

Normally soiled laundry may be washed

with reduced amount of detergent to save

energy and protect the environment.

• Cottons

You can wash your durable cotton laundry

(sheets, bedlinen, towels, bathrobes, under-

wear etc.) in this programme. When the

quick wash function button is pressed, pro-

gramme duration becomes notably shorter

but effective washing performance is en-

sured with intense washing movements. If

the quick wash function is not selected, ef-

fective washing and rinsing performance is

ensured for your heavily soiled laundry.

• Synthetics

Use this programme to wash your clothes

such as t-shirts, blouses, synthetic/cotton-

blend fabrics etc. The quick wash function

shortens the programme duration signific-

antly and ensures effective washing per-

formance for lightly-soiled laundry. The

quick wash function is not suitable for

heavily-soiled laundry.

If your product does not have a specific

curtains programme, you can use this pro-

gramme. Wash your curtains at 40 °C max-

imum and with a spin speed up to 800 rpm.

• Wool/Hand Wash

Use to wash your woollen/delicate laundry.

Select the appropriate temperature comply-

ing with the tag of your clothes. Your laun-

dry will be washed with a very gentle wash-

ing action in order not to damage the

clothes.

EN / 24

• Hygiene+

Applying a steam step at the beginning of

the programme allows to soften the dirt

easily.

Use this programme for your laundry (baby

clothes, bed sheets, bedlinen, underwear,

etc. cotton items) that requires an anti-al-

lergic and hygienic washing at high temper-

ature with intensive and long washing

cycle. The high level of hygiene is ensured

thanks to the steam application before the

programme, long heating duration and ad-

ditional rinsing step.

• Spin+Drain

You can use this program to remove the

water on the garment/inside the product.

• Rinse

Use when you want to rinse or starch sep-

arately.

• Steam Refresh

Use this programme to reduce the creases

and ironing times of a small amount of un-

spotted cotton, synthetic or mixed laundry.

This is not a washing programme.

Do not add chemicals such as de-

tergent, bleach, stain remover, etc.

to the detergent drawer during this

program.

• Shirts

This programme is used to wash the shirts

made from cotton, synthetic and synthetic

blended fabrics altogether. It reduces

wrinkles. Steam is applied at the end of the

programme to help the wrinkle reducing

function. The special spin profile and

steam applied at the end of the programme

reduce the wrinkles on your shirts. When

the quick wash function is selected, the

Pre-treatment algorithm is executed.

• Apply the pre-treatment chemical on your

garments directly or add it together with

the detergent in the powder detergent

compartment. Thus, you can obtain the

same performance as you obtain with

normal washing in a much shorter period

of time. Usage life of your shirts in-

creases. Do not use pre-wash detergent

if you are planning to use delay function

of your product. Prewash detergent may

pour out on your clothes and cause

stains.

** It is recommended to operate the cycle

with no more than 6 shirts to minimize

wrinkles in your shirts using this cycle.

When washing more than 6 shirts, there

may be differences on the wrinkle levels

and humidity on shirts at the end of cycle.

• Daily/Quick/Quick 14’

Use this programme to wash your lightly

soiled or unspotted cotton clothes in a

short time but not for towels or heavy cot-

tons. The programme duration can be re-

duced down to 14 minutes when the quick

wash function is selected. When the quick

wash function is selected, maximum 2

(two) kg of laundry must be washed.

• Dark Care/Jeans

Use this programme to protect the colour

of your dark-coloured garments or jeans. It

performs high performance washing with

special drum movement even if the temper-

ature is low. It is recommended to use li-

quid detergent or woollen shampoo for

dark coloured laundry. Do not wash your

delicate clothes containing wool or etc.

• Drum Clean

Regularly clean (once every 1 to 2 months)

the drum for ensuring the required hygiene.

Steam is applied before the programme to

soften the residues in the drum. Turn on

the programme when the product is com-

pletely empty. For better results, use

powder anti-limescale (drum cleaning ma-

terials) suitable for washing machines

when the powder detergent function is se-

lected. Leave the loading door half closed

after the programme ends for the inside of

the product to dry.

EN / 25

This is not a washing programme.

This is a maintenance programme.

ment tags should be checked (recommen-

ded for cotton shirts, trousers, shorts, t-

shirts, baby clothes, pyjamas, aprons, table

clothes, bed sheets, duvet covers, pillow-

cases, bath-beach towels, towels, socks,

cotton underwear that are suitable for

washing at high temperature and long

time).

In the automatic stain programme, you can

wash 24 types of stains divided into three

different groups according to quick func-

tion selection. Depending on the selected

stain group, a special washing programme

tion will be canceled and the last

selected auxiliary function will re-

main selected.

An auxiliary function that is not

compatible with the program can-

not be selected.

Some programs have auxiliary func-

tions that must work together.

These functions cannot be dis-

abled.

6.8.1 Auxiliary Functions

• Fast/Intensive

You can shorten or extend the programme

duration with this function. Depending on

the programme selection, there may be dif-

ferences in time increases and decreases.

In case the FAST or INTENSIVE LED is not

lit, the appropriate programme duration is

shown for your normally soiled clothes/

laundry.

Depending on the programme selection, the

Intensive feature can be selected automat-

ically. In this case, the Intensive LED on the

panel will be lit. You can use the Intensive

selection to achieve a better washing per-

formance when washing heavily soiled

laundry.

You can reduce the time for your lightly

soiled laundry by pressing the Fast/Intens-

ive button in the programmes which come

with intense being selected. When you

press the button once, the LED will turn off

and you will reach the appropriate pro-

gramme duration for your normally soiled

clothes/laundry. When you press the same

button a second time, the fast LED will light

up, the time will decrease a little and it will

show the minimum programme duration,

which is suitable for your less soiled laun-

dry. The duration of programmes may

shorten by 50% when this function is selec-

ted. Thanks to optimized washing steps,

high mechanical agility and optimal water

consumption, high washing performance is

achieved despite the shorter duration.

• Steam

This function helps to reduce the creases in

your cotton, synthetic and mixed clothes,

shorten the ironing time and remove the

dirt by softening.

* Under conditions where the steam func-

tion is applied at the end of the programme,

your laundry may be warmer at the end of

the washing. This is expected within the

programme working conditions.

When you activate the steam func-

tion, do not use liquid detergent if

there is no liquid container or liquid

detergent dosing feature. There is

the risk of staining of the clothes.

7 Maintenance and Cleaning

Please read the “Safety Instruc-

tions” section first!

Service life of your product extends and fre-

quently experienced problems will be re-

duced if it is cleaned at regular intervals.

7.1 Cleaning the Detergent Drawer

Clean the detergent drawer at regular inter-

vals (once every 4 to 5 wash) as mentioned

below to prevent accumulation of powder

detergent.

Clean the syphon if excess amounts of wa-

ter and fabric softener mixture remains in

the softener compartment.

1. Press the marked part of the syphon

within the softener compartment and

then pull the drawer towards yourself to

take it out.

2. Lift and remove the syphon from behind

as shown.

3. Rinse drawer and syphon in the sink

with plenty of warm water. Use gloves

or suitable brush to prevent contact of

residues in the drawer with your skin.

4. Firmly fit the syphon and the drawer

back after cleaning.

7.2 Cleaning the Loading Door and the

Drum

For products with drum cleaning pro-

gramme, please see the Operating the

product section.

Repeat Drum Cleaning process in

every 2 months.

NOTICE: Use an anti-limescale suit-

able for the washing machines.

EN / 32

After every washing make sure that no for-

eign substance is left in the product.

If the holes on the door gasket shown in the

figure is blocked, open the holes using a

toothpick.

Foreign metal substances will cause rust

stains in the drum. Clean the stains on the

drum surface by using cleaning agents for

stainless steel.

Never use steel wool or wire wool. These

will damage the painted, chrome coated

and plastic surfaces.

We recommend you to wipe the door gas-

ket with a dry and clean cloth at the end of

the programme. This will remove residues

on the door gasket in your product and pre-

vent formation of malodours.

7.3 Cleaning the Body and Control

Panel

Wipe the body of the product with soapy

water or non-corrosive mild gel detergents

as necessary, and dry with a soft cloth.

Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean the

control panel. Do not use cleaning products

that contain bleach

7.4 Cleaning the Water Intake Filters

There is a filter at the end of each water in-

take valve at the rear of the product and

also at the end of each water intake hose

where they are connected to the tap. These

filters prevent foreign substances and dirt

in the water to enter the product. Filters

should be cleaned if they are dirty.

1. Close the taps.

2. Remove the nuts of the water intake

hoses to access the filters on the water

intake valves and clean them with an ap-

propriate brush. If the filters are too

dirty, remove them from their places

with a pliers and clean in this way.

3. Take out the filters on the flat ends of

the water intake hoses together with the

gaskets and clean thoroughly under run-

ning water.

4. Replace the gaskets and filters carefully

and tighten their nuts by hand.

7.5 Draining Remaining Water and

Cleaning the Pump Filter

The filter system in your product prevents

solid items such as buttons, coins and fab-

ric fibres clogging the pump impeller during

draining of washing water. Thus, the water

will be drained without any problem and the

service life of the pump will extend.

If the product fails to drain water inside it,

the pump filter is clogged. Filter must be

cleaned whenever it is clogged or in every 3

months. Water must be drained off first to

clean the pump filter.

In addition, prior to transporting the product

(e.g., when moving to another house) water

should be drained completely.

EN / 33

NOTE:

Foreign substances left in the

pump filter may damage your

product or may cause noise prob-

lem.

If you live in areas prone to frost, re-

member to turn off the water tap,

disconnect the main hose, and

drain the water from the product

when it's not in use.

After each use, turn off the tap to

which the mains hose is connected.

In order to clean the dirty filter and drain

the water:

1. Unplug the product to cut off the supply

power.

Temperature of the water inside the

product may rise up to 90 ºC. To

avoid the risk of scalding, clean the

filter after the water inside the

product is cooled down.

2. Open the filter cover.

3. Follow the below procedures in order to

drain water.

If the product has an emergency water

draining hose, in order to drain the water:

• Pull the emergency draining hose out of

its seat.

• Place the end of the hose in a large con-

tainer. Drain the water into the container

by pulling out the plug at the end of the

hose. When the container is filled, close

the end of the hose with the plug. Drain

all water by repeating the procedure spe-

cified above after draining the container.

• When the water drain is finished, close

the end with the plug again and fix the

hose in its place.

• Unscrew the pump filter.

1. Clean any residues inside the filter as

well as fibres, if any, around the pump

impeller region.

2. Replace the filter.

3. If the filter cap is composed of two

pieces, close the filter cap by pressing

on the tab. If it is one piece, seat the

tabs in the lower part into their places

first, and then press the upper part to

close.
