Running a washing cycle

Opening the door/loading washing

1. To open the door: pull the door by the handle.

When the machine is switched on, the DOOR light and the START/

PAUSE light indicate whether the door can be opened:

During the programme the door is locked when the water level or the

temperature is high. The DOOR light is off.

2. Unfold washing and load it loosely

into the machine. Mix large and

small items.

Important! Do not get any washing

caught between the door and the

rubber seal.

3. Push the door shut firmly. Door

catch must audibly click shut.

Adding detergent/additives

Important: Use only detergents and additives that are suitable for use

in domestic washing machines.

Dose detergent and additives according to the instructions of the de-

tergent and additive manufacturers. Follow the instructions on the

packaging.

Dosing depends upon:

– the washing’s degree of soiling,

– the size of the load

– the degree of hardness of the water supply.

• If the manufacturer does not give instructions for small loads: for a

half load, use a third less, for a very small load, use only half of the

detergent that is recommended for a full load.

• From water hardness 2 (= medium) upwards, water softener should

be used. Detergent can then always be dosed for water hardness 1

(= soft). Your local water company will be able to give you informa-

tion about the water hardness in your area.
