[. . . ] The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme. If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected. Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which allows an optimal use of the concentrated detergent. Follow the product manufacturer's recommendations on quantities to use and do not exceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent dispenser drawer . Quantity of detergent to be used The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree of soiling and hardness of the water used. Follow the product manufacturers' instructions on quantities to use. Use less detergent if: · you are washing a small load · the laundry is lightly soiled · large amounts of foam form during washing. Degrees of water hardness Water hardness is classified in so-called "degrees" of hardness. Information on hardness of the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from your local authority. If the water hardness degree is medium or high we suggest you to add a water softener following always the manufacturer's instructions. When the degree of hardness is soft, readjust the quantity of the detergent. 16 Washing programmes Washing programmes Programme Maximum and Minimum Temperature Cycle Description Maximum Fabrics Load Type of Laundry COTTONS/LINEN 95° - Cold Main wash - Rinses - Long spin at the maximum speed Max. load 6 kg - Reduced load 3 kg White and coloured cotton (normally soiled items).

There should be a minimum vertical distance of 5. 02 m (16. 5 ft) between the appliance's inlet and the bottom of the water storage tank. 32 Installation Water drainage This appliance is designed to be permanently plumbed into your home's drainage system using one of the following methods. Into a drainage standpipe Firstly form a hook in the end of the drain hose using the "U" piece" supplied. Place the drain hose into your standpipe, which should have an internal diameter of approximately 38 mm thus ensuring there is an air break between the drain hose and standpipe. When discharging into a standpipe ensure that the top of the standpipe is no more than 90 cm (35. 4'') and no less than 60 cm (23. 6'') above floor level. [. . . ]
