Fabric conditioner, starch, detergent compartment:

You can use softener for your laundry (recommended amount and type by the producer is recommended). Sometimes the fabric conditioners you use for your laundry mar remain in this compartment. The reason for this is that the conditioner is not viscous. To prevent this situation, more viscous liquid softeners are recommended to be used or the softener could be thinned and then used.

This compartment must only be used when the pre-wash feature is selected. Pre-wash feature is recommended for very dirty laundry.

PRELIMINARY PREPARATION FOR LAUNDERING

SEPARATING LAUNDRIES

• Your laundry has product labels on them that specifiy their specifications. Wash or dry your laundry according to the specifciations on the product label.
• Separate your laundries according to their types (cotton, synthetic, sensitive, wool etc.), their temperatures (cold, 30°, 40°, 60°, 90°) and degree of contamination (slightly stained, stained, highly stained).

• Never wash your coloured and white laundry together.
• Wash your coloured laundries separately in the first washing as they may bleed.
• Ensure that there are no metallic materials on your laundries or in the pockets; if so, take them up.

• Zip up and button up your laundries.
• Remove the metallic or plastic hooks of tulle curtains or curtains or place them in a washing net or bag and then muzzle them.

• Reverse textiles such as pants, knitwear, t-shirt and sweat suit.

• Wash socks, handkerchief and suchlike small laundries in a washing net.

PUTTING LAUNDRIES IN THE MACHINE

Open the door of your machine.

Spread your laundries in your machine.

Note: Maximum loading capacity may vary based on the laundry type you will wash, degree of contamination and the programme you have chosen. Do not exceed maximum dry loading capacity indicated in the programme table for washing programmes.

You can take the following table of weights as an example.

• Put each item of laundry separately.
• Ensure that no laundry is stuck between the cover and bellow seal when closing the door of your machine.
• Push the door of your machine until hearing the locking sound to close it.
• Close the door of your machine properly, otherwise your machine will not start the washing operation.

ADDING DETERGENT INTO MACHINE

The amount of detergent you will put in your machine will depend on the following criteria:

• Your detergent utilization will be based on the degree of contamination of your laundries. Do not prewash your less stained laundries and put your slight amount of detergent in the 2nd compartment of the detergent drawer.
• For your much stained laundries, select a programme including prewashing, and put % of the detergent you will put in the detergent drawer in the 1st compartment of the detergent drawer while putting the remaining % of it into 2nd compartment.
• Use detergents produced for automatic washing machine in your machine. The amount of detergent you will use for your laundries is printed on the detergent package.
• The higher the degree of hardness of the water the more detergent you will use.
• The amount of the detergent you will use will increase as the amount of your laundries increase.
• Put the softener in the softener compartment in the detergent drawer. Do not exceed the MAX level. Otherwise, softener will flow into washing water through flushing.
• Softeners with high density are required to be thinned to a degree before being put in the drawer. Because high-density softener will clog the flush and avoid the flow of the softener.
• You can use your liquid detergents in all programs without prewashing. For this, fit liquid detergent level plate in the accessories bag or the liquid detergent apparatus (*) into 2nd compartment of the detergent drawer and set the amount of liquid detergent according to the levels on this plate. Remember to detach the liquid detergent plate. (*)
