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.

hear a locking sound. Ensure that no

items are caught in the door. The load-

ing door is locked while a programme is

running. The door lock will open once

the programme is completed. Then you

can open the loading door. If the door

does not open, apply the solutions

provided for “Loading door cannot be

opened” error in the Troubleshooting

section.

5.5 Correct Load Capacity

The maximum load capacity depends on

the type of laundry, the degree of soiling

and the desired washing programme.

The product automatically adjusts the wa-

ter amount according to the weight of the

laundry put inside it.

Follow the instructions in “Pro-

gramme and consumption table”.

When the appliances is overloaded

product’s washing performance will

drop. Moreover, noise and vibration

problems may occur.

5.6 Using Detergent and Softener

WARNING

Read the manufacturer instructions

on the package while using deter-

gents, softeners, starch, bleach and

decolourants, anti-limescale and

follow the dosage information

provided. Use a measuring cup, if

any.

Gel-like, non-fluid liquid detergents,

etc. cannot be used in the deter-

gent compartments or dosing

chambers.

Detergent, Softener and Other Cleaning

Agents

The detergent drawer comprises of three

compartments:

(1) Liquid detergent compartment

(2) Powder detergent compartment

(3) Softener compartment

• Add detergent and softener before start-

ing the washing programme.

• Do not leave the detergent drawer open

when the washing programme is on.

• Do not select a programme with pre-

washing if you are using a detergent pod

or dispensing ball. Place the detergent

pod or the dispensing ball directly among

the laundry in the product.

• Prewash compartment and prewash op-

tion is not available.

EN / 17

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 at suggested pro-

grammes.

• When washing dark coloured clothes and

quilts, it is recommended to use liquid

detergent.

• Wash woollens at suggested programme

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

liquid detergents or other cleaning

agents to soften the laundry.

Do not use soap powder.

5.6.1 Automatic Dosing

Initial Installation

Turn on the machine with On/Off button.

Dosage symbol (

) appears in programs

where detergent dosing is allowed. If the li-

quid detergent or softener compartments

are empty, the dosage symbol will flash in

programs where detergent dosing is al-

lowed.

Filling Liquid Detergent and Softener

1. Open the detergent compartment by

pulling it towards yourself.

2. To fill liquid detergent (left) and softener

(right), open the related tank’s lid by

pulling it upwards as shown in the pic-

ture.

3. Remember not to exceed the “Max” sign

when adding liquid detergent or

softener.

4. Close the lid of the compartment.

5. Close the detergent drawer by pushing

lightly.

6. After closing the detergent drawer, the

flashing dosage symbol (

) starts

lighting up continuously.

7. It indicates that the compartments are

filled successfully and the detergent

drawer is in its place.

EN / 18

We recommend filling the detergent com-

partment with liquid detergents that can be

used in common for coloured and white

laundry.

If the detergent symbol is flashing even

though the detergent compartments are

filled, the detergent drawer is not seated

properly. Push the drawer so that it is fully

seated.

WARNING

When the detergent drawer is filled

with detergent and/or softener; do

not pull or move the equipment,

and do not tilt it on either side or

back.

Before conducting these opera-

tions, the detergent drawer must al-

ways be removed from the ma-

chine.

If you wish to start the program

while there is no detergent in the

detergent drawer, liquid detergent

dosage must be cancelled and

washing with powder detergent is

required.

Only liquid detergent must be put

inside the liquid detergent dosing

tank and only softener must be put

in the softener dosing tank. Putting

all kinds of liquid and powder

chemicals together inside the tanks

may damage your laundry or your

machine.

5.6.2 Dosage Selections, Cancella-

tion or Use of Powder Deter-

gent

Liquid detergent cannot be selected in

some of the programs. Powder detergent

must be used in these cases. For more in-

formation, see Programme Table.

If powder detergent is to be used in pro-

grams where the detergent dosing system

is operating, desired amount of detergent is

put into the powder detergent compart-

ment. If the detergent compartment in the

middle is to be used, the automatic dosage

selection must be deactivated.

Machine measures the load and determ-

ines the right amount of detergent depend-

ing on the load amount and the selections

made previously. The detergent taken is

not visible while washing, it is taken directly

with water over the laundry.

If another liquid detergent with different

properties than the one in the liquid deter-

gent dosing tank is preferred to be used, li-

quid detergent with said different proper-

ties should be put in the powder detergent

compartment in the middle and the liquid

detergent dosage selection should be deac-

tivated.

Softener will be taken from the dosing sys-

tem.

Liquid detergent and softener dosing symbols become

active or inactive according to the program selected on

the screen.

First position on the display means liquid de-

tergent is active, softener is on. If the liquid de-

tergent and softener symbol is lit, it means

that liquid detergent and softener dosing is

active.

If the liquid detergent and softener symbols

are active on the screen; when you press the

Automatic Dosing key for the first time, the li-

quid detergent will turn on and the softener

EN / 19

will turn off. If the softener symbol is not lit, it

means that softener will not be used in the

rinsing step.

When you press the Automatic Dosing key for

the seconds time, the powder detergent and

the softener will turn on. If the liquid detergent

symbol is not lit, it means that it can be

washed with powder detergent.

When you press the Automatic Dosing key for

the third time, the powder detergent will turn

on and the softener will turn off. When you

press it for the fourth time, it will return to the

first position.

5.6.3 Detergent and/or Softener

Running Out

When the detergent or the softener put in-

side the detergent drawer finishes, the

dosage symbol in the display flashes.

When this symbol flashes, it is necessary to

add the decreasing detergent or softener to

the dosing tank. The product will be able to

dose enough for 2-3 more cycles from the

first moment the symbol flashes.

5.6.4 Filling Detergent or Softener

into the Wrong Compartment

In case you fill the detergent or the softener

in the wrong compartment, see "Cleaning

the Detergent Drawer".

5.8 Displayed Programme Duration

You can view the programme duration on

the display of your machine while selecting

a programme. Depending on the amount of

laundry you have loaded into your machine,

foaming, unbalanced load conditions, fluc-

tuations in power supply, water pressure

and programme settings, the programme

duration is automatically adjusted while the

programme is running.

SPECIAL CASE: At programme start of Cot-

tons and Cotton Eco programmes, display

shows the duration of half load. It is the

most common use case. After programme

starts, in 20-25 minutes actual load is de-

tected by the machine. And if the detected

load is higher than half load; washing pro-

gramme will be adjusted accordingly and

programme duration increased automatic-

ally. You can follow this change on the dis-

play.

EN / 24

Please read Installation section of

the manual before first use.

The auxiliary functions in the table

may vary according to the model of

your machine.

Water and energy consumption

may vary subject to the changes in

water pressure, water hardness and

temperature, ambient temperature,

type and amount of laundry, selec-

tion of auxiliary functions and spin

speed, and changes in electric

voltage.

Selection patterns for auxiliary

functions can be changed by the

manufacturer company. New selec-

tion patterns can be added or re-

moved.

The spin speed of your machine

may vary according to the pro-

gramme; this spin speed cannot ex-

ceed the max. spin speed of your

machine.

The amount of noise and humidity

varies according to the spin speed;

when the higher spin speed is se-

lected during the spinning phase,

the laundry contains less moisture

but higher noise occurs at the end

of the programme.

You can see the washing duration

on the display of your machine

while selecting a programme. De-

pending on the amount of laundry

you have loaded into your machine,

there may be a difference of 1-1.5

hours between the duration shown

on the display and the actual dura-

tion of the wash cycle. Duration will

be automatically updated soon

after the washing starts.

Always select the lowest appropri-

ate temperature. The most efficient

programmes in terms of energy

consumption are generally those

that wash at low temperatures for a

long time.

The spin speed information given

at the program table indicates spin

speed option shown on the control

panel.

6.4 Programme Selection

1. Determine the programme suitable for

the type, quantity and soiling level of the

laundry in accordance with "Programme

and consumption table".

Programmes are limited to the

highest spin speed appropriate for

that particular type of fabric.

When selecting a programme, al-

ways consider the type of fabric,

colour, soiling level and permissible

water temperature.

2. Select the desired programme with the

Programme Selection knob.

6.5 Programmes

• Automatic Extra Rinsing Feature

Your machine checks the water turbidity in

some rinsing steps and adds up to 2 extra

rinsing steps as needed to purify your

clothes from detergent.

• 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.

• Cotton

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.

• Synthetic

You can wash your laundry (such as shirts,

blouses, synthetic/cotton blended fabrics

etc.) in this programme. When the quick

wash function button is pressed, the pro-

gramme duration will be shortened signific-

antly and effective washing performance is

provided for your laundry that is not very

dirty. If the quick wash function is not se-

lected, effective washing and rinsing per-

formance is ensured for your heavily soiled

laundry.

• Wool

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

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.

• Bedding

Use this programme to wash your fibre

duvets that bear "machine washable" tag.

Check that you have loaded the duvet cor-

rectly in order not to damage the machine

and the duvet. Remove the duvet cover be-

fore loading the duvet into the machine.

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

6.8 Auxiliary Function Selection

Select the desired auxiliary functions be-

fore starting the programme. Whenever a

programme is selected, icons of the auxili-

ary function symbol that is selected to-

gether with it illuminates.

Also the frames of the auxiliary functions

selected for the current programme after

the washing has started remain illumin-

ated.

When an auxiliary function button

that cannot be selected with the

current programme is pressed, the

washing machine will make a warn-

ing sound.

Some functions cannot be selected

together. If a second auxiliary func-

tion conflicting with the first one is

selected before starting the ma-

chine, the function selected first

will be cancelled and the second

auxiliary function selection will re-

main active. For example, if you

want to select Quick Wash after

you have selected the Additional

Water, Additional Water will be can-

celled and Quick Wash will remain

active.

An auxiliary function that is not

compatible with the programme

cannot be selected. (See "Pro-

gramme and consumption table")

Some programmes have auxiliary

functions that must be operated

simultaneously. Those functions

cannot be cancelled. The frame of

the auxiliary function will not be illu-

minated, only inner area will be illu-

minated.

6.8.1 Auxiliary Functions

• Speedy/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,

EN / 30

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.

• Extra Rinse

This function enables the product to make

additional rinsing in addition to the one

already made after the main wash. Thus,

the risk for sensitive skins (babies, allergic

skins, etc.) to be effected by the minimal

detergent remnants on the laundry can be

reduced.

• Steam

This function helps to reduce the creases

of 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.

• Auto Dosing

You can change your dosage and detergent

preferences with this auxiliary function but-

ton. For detailed information, see “Dosage

Selections, Cancellation or Use of Powder

Detergent”

• Auto Dosing Setting

You can use this function to change the

dosing amounts of the Liquid Detergent

and Softener. Press the Automatic Dosage

button to activate the function.

Take into account the amount of laundry,

the amount of soiling of the laundry and the

water hardness for the use of sufficient

amount of detergent in washing. For auto-

matic dosing, in order for your machine to

dose the appropriate amount of detergent,

you must define the recommended

amounts given on the package of the deter-

gent you use to the machine. For this, see

“Changing liquid detergent and softener

dosage settings” below.

You can find out the water hardness from

the water administration responsible for

your location, or you can determine it by ap-

plying the water hardness test. Detergent

manufacturers recommend using more de-

tergent when the water hardness is high.

Considering the water hardness, you can

define a reference value between 15 – 200

mL for 4-5 kg of medium soiled laundry.

The dosage amount will be adjusted auto-

matically based on the sensed laundry

characteristics.

For Soft / Medium water hardness:

Lightly Soiled: a mL.

Medium Soiled: b mL.

Heavily Soiled: c mL.

For hard water hardness:

Lightly Soiled: d mL.

Medium Soiled: e mL.

Heavily Soiled: f mL.

EN / 31

Detergent manufacturers provide usage re-

commendations similar to the table above.

The value you must define to the machine

is the medium soiled value. Based on the

water hardness, define b or e value to the

machine.

If the amount of laundry you will wash is

different from 4-5 kg, you do not need to

change the dosage setting. Your machine

automatically adjusts the dosage amount

based on the load amount.

If you change the detergent model

you use, we recommend that you

adjust the dosage again to achieve

the best results.

Programme Recommendation by Laun-

dry Soiling Level

You can use the "Fast" feature for your

lightly soiled laundry. When you select the

"Fast" feature, your machine will adjust the

detergent dosing for lightly soiled laundry.

You can use the "Intense" feature for your

heavily soiled laundry. When you select the

"Intense" feature, your machine will adjust

the detergent dosing for heavily soiled laun-

dry.

Soiling Level in Automatic Programme

In products that have the Automatic Addi-

tional Rinsing feature, soil detection is per-

formed as part of the Automatic Pro-

gramme. Programme duration and dosed

detergent amount will change based on the

sensed soiling.

Changing Liquid Detergent and Softener

Dosage Settings:

1. Press the Auto Dosage key. When the li-

quid detergent is on and the fabric

softener is off, the liquid detergent set-

ting screen becomes active. When the li-

quid detergent is off and the fabric

softener is on, the liquid detergent set-

ting screen becomes active. The LED of

the active setting screen lights up.

2. Press the "+" and "-" keys to change the

dosage reference values.

3. When dosage amount setting process is

completed, you can return to the main

menu by pressing any key. For all pro-

grammes, dosing will be performed

based on the latest settings you have

selected until you select a new setting.

• Remote Control

You can use this auxiliary function button

to connect your product to smart devices.

For detailed information, see HomeWhiz

Feature and Remote Control Function.

• Customized Program

This auxiliary function can only be used for

Cotton and Synthetic programmes together

tion is activated under the HomeWhiz “Per-

sonalize” menu, you can add up to five ad-

ditional rinsing steps to the program. You

can select and use some auxiliary func-

tions even though they are not found on

your product. You can increase and de-

crease the time of the Cotton and Synthetic

programmes within a safe range.

When the Specialised Programme

auxiliary function is selected, the

washing performance and energy

consumption will be different than

the declared value.

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

When to clean

• When you open the dosing tank cover

and see a thickened non-fluid detergent

or softener,

• If you are not satisfied with the washing

results, it may be that the detergent or

softener has become stiff and therefore

cannot be taken into the washing area,

EN / 40

• If the liquid in the tank does not decrease

although dosing is selected and you do

not load detergents or softeners for a

long time,

• If you want to change the washing in-

gredients you have filled in the chamber

(for example, if you are not satisfied with

the detergent and do not want to use it)

or if you have done incorrect loading (for

example, if you have placed detergent or

softener in the detergent tank),

• If a different brand of detergent or

softener will be added,

• If a washing agent with different specific-

ations (e.g. if detergent is added for col-

oured ones when there is detergent in the

tank for whites) is added,

• If a different-concentration washing

agent is added (to avoid wasting the pre-

viously filled detergent, you can put them

in the powder detergent compartment in

the next washing and consume it by se-

lecting the «powder detergent active» po-

sition on the screen.)

• If the new softener has the same spe-

cifications but only a different scent, (it

should be noted that the scent of the

mixture will be different if it is added

without cleaning the remaining softener),

• If it is not going to be used for a long

time (e.g. at the time of moving to the

summer house and at the time of return,

for 3 months or more), the liquid washing

agent may become denser and may be-

come stiffer at the end, and may not

make dosing although the system indic-

ates full.

Cleaning:

Before starting cleaning, unplug your appli-

ance by pressing the On/Off button.

It is recommended to wear a suit-

able glove so that you do not come

into direct contact with the deter-

gent and other washing materials

that you will empty from the deter-

gent drawer.

1. Press the blue part in the middle of the

detergent drawer to pull it towards you

and remove it.

2. Remove the drain stick located at the

back of the drawer from its slot.

drawer to be emptied towards the inside

of the compartment to be emptied.

4. Gently push the drain stick into the slot

behind the detergent compartment.

5. The detergent will start to pour into the

container.

6. The same is carried out for the softener

compartment.

7. The guides holding the top cover of the

detergent drawer are removed with a

flathead screwdriver (there are total of 6

guides, two each on the right, left and

back of the drawer) and the inside of the

drawer is washed.

8. After the completion of the washing pro-

cess, the cover is inserted to the drawer.

Make sure that all guides are in place. If

the guides do not fit, liquid may spill

from the drawer, or the detergent box

EN / 41

may get trapped in the drawer rail or

move in difficulty. Therefore, make sure

that the guides are firmly seated.

9. Insert the drain stick back into its slot in

the back of the drawer.

10.Refit the drawer by paying attention to

its slot and slides and push the drawer

to close. Once detergents and softeners

are added, they will be ready for use in

dosed programs.

7.2 Cleaning the Loading Door and

the Drum

Repeat Drum Cleaning process in

every 2 months.

NOTICE: Use an anti-limescale suit-

able for the washing machines.

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 machine and

prevent 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 Fil-

ters

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

EN / 42

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.

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.
