use of the washing machine may result in damage to the
laundry or the appliance, or injury to the user. Keep the
instruction manual handy, near the washing machine.
Instructions for use are available through Hisense customer
service centers.
Your washing machine is intended solely for household
use. If the washing machine is used for professional,
for-profit purpose or purpose exceeding normal use in a
household, or if the washing machine is used by a person
who is not a consumer, the warranty period shall be equal to
the shortest warranty period required by relevant legislation.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
801514
5
Follow the instructions for correct installation of the Hisense
washing machine and connection to the water and power
mains (see chapter »INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION«).
Connection to water and power supply has to be executed
by an adequately trained technician or expert.
Any repair and maintenance pertaining to safety or
performance should be done by trained experts.
To avoid danger, a damaged power cord may only be
replaced by the manufacturer, a service technician, or an
authorized person.
Before connecting the washing machine to the power
mains, wait for at least 2 hours until it reaches room
temperature.
In case of a defect, only use approved spare parts by
authorized manufacturers.
In case of incorrect washing machine connection, incorrect
use, or servicing by an unauthorized person, the user shall
bear the cost of any damage as such damage shall not be
covered by warranty.
The washing machine may not be connected to the power
mains using an extension cord.
Do not connect the washing machine to power mains using
an external switching device such as a programme timer, or
connect it to power mains that is regularly switched on and
off by the power supply provider.
801514
6
Do not connect the washing machine to an electrical outlet
intended for an electric shaver or hair dryer.
Do not install the washing machine in a room where the
temperature can drop to below 5°C, as washing machine
parts may be damaged in case of water freezing.
Place the washing machine on a level and stable solid
(concrete) base.
If the washing machine is placed on an elevated stable base,
the washing machine has to be additionally secured against
tipping.
Before the first use of the washing machine, remove the
blocking rods, as switching on a blocked washing machine
can result in serious damage (see chapter »INSTALLATION
AND CONNECTION/Removing the blocking rods«). Warranty
shall be void in cases of such damage.
To connect the washing machine to water supply, make
sure to use the supplied water supply hose and gaskets.
Water pressure has to be between 0.05 and 0.8 MPa (0.5 – 8
bar).
Always use a new water supply hose to connect the washing
machine to water supply; do not reuse an old water supply
hose.
The end of the water discharge hose should reach into a
water drain line.
Before the start of the washing cycle, press the door on the
801514
7
indicated spot until it locks into place. The door cannot be
opened during washing machine operation.
We recommend removing any impurities from the
washing machine drum before the first wash using the
Cotton 90°C programme (see PROGRAMME TABLE).
After the washing cycle, close the water tap and pull out
the washing machine plug from the power socket.
Clean the pump filter whenever the symbol
appears on the
display unit.
Only use the washing machine for washing laundry, as
described in the instruction manual. The machine is not
intended for dry cleaning.
Only use agents for machine washing and care of
laundry. We shall not be responsible for any damages or
discolouration of gaskets and plastic parts resulting from
incorrect use of bleaching or colouring agents.
When descaling, only use descaling agents with added
anti-corrosion protection. (Only use non-corrosive descaling
agents.) Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Finish the
descaling process with several rinse cycles or by running the
Drum Clean (Self-cleaning programme) in order to remove
any residual acid (e.g. vinegar etc.).
Do not use detergents that contain solvents as this could
lead to release of poisonous gases, damage to the washing
machine, and risk of fire and explosion.
801514
8
No silver ions are released during the washing programme.
The washing machine is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with physical or mental impairments,
or persons with lacking experience and knowledge. These
persons should be instructed about the use of the washing
machine by a person responsible for their safety.
The warranty does not cover consumables, minor
deviations in colour, increased noise that results from
appliance age and which does not affect the functionality of
the appliance, and aesthetic defects on components, which
do not affect the functionality and safety of the appliance.
CHILD SAFETY
Before closing the washing machine door and running the
programme, make sure there is nothing except laundry in the
drum (e.g. if a child climbed into the washing machine drum
and closed the door from the inside).
Keep the detergent and conditioner out of reach of children.
Activate the child lock. See chapter »CHOOSING THE
SETTINGS/Child lock«.
Do not let children younger than three years come
near the appliance, unless they are under constant
supervision.
The washing machine is made in compliance with all
relevant safety standards.
This washing machine may be used by children aged 8
years and above and by persons with reduced physical,
801514
9
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and
knowledge, but only if they are supervised during the use of
the washing machine, if they have been provided relevant
instructions regarding safe use of the washing machine, and
if they understand the hazards of inappropriate use. Make
sure children do not play with the appliance. Children may
not clean the washing machine or perform any maintenance
tasks without supervision.
DANGER OF HOT SURFACE
At higher washing temperatures, the door glass will heat up.
Be careful to avoid burns. Make sure children do not play
near the door glass.
WATER OVERFLOW PROTECTION (WITH WASHING
MACHINE SWITCHED ON)
If the water level in the appliance rises above normal level,
then the excess water level protection will be activated. It will
shut off the water supply and start pumping out the water.
The program is interrupted and an error is reported (see
TROUBLESHOOTING TABLE).

MOVING AND TRANSPORT AFTER INSTALLATION
If you wish to move the washing machine after it has been installed, the angular pieces and at
least one blocking rods have to be re-installed to prevent vibration damage to the washing machine
during transport (see chapter »INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION/Removing the blocking rods«). If
you lost the angular pieces and the blocking rods, they can be ordered from the manufacturer.
After transport, the washing machine should be left to stand still for at least two hours
before it is connected to the power mains, so that it can reach room temperature. The
appliance should be installed and connected by a trained technician.
Carefully read the instructions for use before connecting the washing machine. Repair or
any warranty claim resulting from incorrect connection or use of the washing machine shall
not be covered by the warranty.
801514
16
Incorrect levelling of the washing machine with the adjustable legs may cause vibration,
appliance sliding across the room, and loud operation. Incorrect levelling of the washing machine is
not subject to warranty.
Sometimes, unusual or louder noise may appear during appliance operation; these are mostly
the result of improper installation.
1
Level the washing
machine in
longitudinal and
traverse direction by
rotating the adjustable
feet. The feet allow
levelling by +/- 1 cm.
2
After adjusting
the height of the
feet, firmly tighten the

DOS ASSIST
With the (5) DOS ASSIST function, the washing machine will recommend
the optimum amount of powder or liquid detergent according to the
selected settings. Recommended amount of powder or liquid detergent
depends on:
• Water hardness (the following settings are available: soft, medium,
hard. Default setting is the medium level, but the user may
adjust it. See chapter »INTERRUPTIONS AND CHANGING THE
PROGRAMME/Personal settings menu).« For correct functioning of
the (5) DOS ASSIST function, we recommend setting the correct
water hardness level.
• Selected washing programme and
• Amount of laundry (load) – the washing machine measures the
amount of laundry each time the (5) DOS ASSIST function is used.

Unevenly distributed laundry or lumps of laundry in the washing machine drum can cause problems
such as vibration and noisy operation. The washing machine detects such problems and the UKS*
(*stability control system) will be activated.
Smaller loads (e.g. one towel, one sweater, one bathrobe etc.) or clothes made of materials with
special geometrical properties are virtually impossible to distribute evenly across the washing
machine drum (slippers, large items etc.). This results in several attempts to redistribute the laundry,
which in turn leads to longer programme duration. In extreme cases of unfavourable conditions, the

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WASHING
AND ECONOMIC USE YOUR
WASHING MACHINE
Wash new coloured garments separately the first time.
Wash heavily soiled laundry in smaller amounts, with more powder detergent or with a pre-wash
cycle.
Apply a special stain remover on stubborn stains before the wash. We recommend referring to
STAIN REMOVAL TIPS.
With slightly soiled laundry, we recommend a programme without a pre-wash cycle, use of shorter
programmes (e.g. QUICKER) and a lower washing temperature.
If you often wash laundry at low temperatures and with liquid detergents, bacteria may spawn
which can cause odour in the washing machine. To prevent such odour, we recommend
occasionally running the Drum Clean (Self-cleaning programme) (see PROGRAMME TABLE).
We recommend avoiding washing very small amounts of laundry as this will lead to excessive use
of energy and poorer washing machine performance.
Loosen any folded laundry before putting it into the drum.
Only use detergents for machine washing.
Add powder or liquid detergents as instructed by the manufacturer, according to the washing
temperature and selected washing programme.
If water hardness exceeds 14 °dH, water softener should be used. Heater damage resulting from
incorrect use of water softeners shall not be covered by the warranty. Check the information on
water hardness with your local water supply company or authority.
Use of chlorine-based bleaches is not recommended as they can damage the heater.
Do not add hardened lumps of powder detergent into the detergent dispenser as this may clog the
piping in the washing machine.
When using thick liquid laundry care products, we recommend diluting them with water to prevent
clogging the dispenser tray drain.
Liquid detergents are intended for washing programmes without a prewash cycle.
At higher spinning rates, there will be less residual moisture in the laundry. As a result, drying in a
tumble dryer will be more economical and faster.

We recommend adding powder detergent immediately before the washing cycle. If you add it
sooner, make sure the detergent compartment in the dispenser tray is completely dry before adding
the powder detergent: otherwise, the powder detergent may cake before the start of the washing
process.
Pour the conditioner into the dispenser tray, into the compartment with the symbol . Observe
the recommendation on the conditioner packaging.
Do not fill the conditioner compartment over the max. indication (maximum indicated level).
Otherwise, the conditioner will be added to the laundry too soon, leading to poorer washing effect.

STAIN REMOVAL TIPS
Before using special-purpose stain removers, try using the natural methods that do not harm the
environment on less stubborn stains.
However, prompt action is required! Soak the stain with an absorbent sponge or a paper towel;
then, rinse with cold (lukewarm) water – but never with hot water!
Stains Stain removal
Mud When the stain is dry, first scrape it off the garment before washing
it in the washing machine. If the stain is stubborn, soak it with an
enzyme-based stain remover before the wash. If the stain is not
stubborn, wash the laundry with liquid detergent or powder detergent
and water before the wash.
Antiperspirant Before washing in the washing machine, apply liquid detergent
onto the laundry. Apply stain removers on any stubborn stains.
Alternatively, use oxygen-based bleach for the wash.
Tea Soak or rinse the laundry in cold water and add stain remover if
necessary.
Chocolate Soak or rinse the laundry with lukewarm soapy water. Then, apply
lemon juice and rinse.
Ink Before washing in the washing machine, apply stain removers on the
stain. You may also use denatured alcohol. Turn the garment inside
out and place a paper towel under the stain. Use the alcohol on the
back side of the stain. At the end of the pro-cess, thoroughly rinse
the garment.
Felt tip pens Dilute some starch in water and apply it to the stain. When it dries,
scrape it off with a brush; then, wash the garment in the washing
machine.
Baby food (urine, mud,
food stains)
Before washing in the washing machine, soak the stains in lukewarm
water for at least half an hour. For easier stain re-moval, add an
enzyme-based stain remover.
Grass Before washing in the washing machine, soak the laundry in an
enzyme-based stain remover. Grass stains can also be re-moved by
soaking (for approx. 1 hour) in diluted lemon juice or distilled vinegar.
Eggs Soak the garment in an enzyme-based stain remover. Soak in cold
water for at least 30 minutes or a few hours if the stains are stubborn.
Then, wash in the washing machine.
Coffee Soak the garment in salt water. If the stain is not fresh, soak it with a
mixture of glycerine, ammonia and alcohol.
Shoe polish Apply cooking oil to the stain and rinse.
Blood Fresh stain – rinse the garment with cool water and wash it in the
washing machine.
Dried stain – soak the garment in an enzyme-based stain remover.
Then, wash in the washing machine. If the stain does not vanish, try
to remove it with a bleach suitable for your garment.

Stains Stain removal
Glue, chewing gum Place the garment in a bag and put it in the freezer until the stain
hardens. Then, remove it with a blunt knife. Then, dilute the stain
with a prewash stain remover and rinse thoroughly. Then, wash the
laundry as usual.
Makeup Use a stain remover for the prewash; then, wash in the washing
machine.
Butter Before washing in the washing machine, apply stain remover to the
stain. Then, rinse with hot water (as hot as the fabric will al-low).
Milk Soak the garment in an enzyme-based stain remover. Soak for at
least 30 minutes or a few hours if the stains are stubborn. Then, wash
in the washing machine.
Fruit juice Apply a mixture of salt and water on the stain. Leave to take effect
for a while, then rinse. You can apply sodium bicarbonate, distilled
vinegar or lemon juice on the stain before washing in the washing
machine. For old stains, use glycerine. After 20 minutes, rinse with
cold water, then wash the laundry in the washing machine.
Wine Soak the laundry in cold water for at least 30 minutes. Also, use a
stain remover. Then, wash in the washing machine.
Wax Put the garment into the freezer until the wax hardens. Then, scrape
it off. Remove the remaining wax by placing a paper towel onto the
stain, and then heat it with an iron until the paper absorbs the wax.
Sweat Before washing in the washing machine, rub liquid detergent
thoroughly into the stain.
Chewing gum Put the garment into the freezer until the chewing gum hardens.
Then, scrape it off. Then, wash in the washing machine.
