[. . . ] Contents Thank you for choosing one of our high-quality products. To ensure optimal and regular performance of your appliance please read this instruction manual carefully. It will enable you to navigate all processes perfectly and most efficiently. To refer to this manual any time you need to, we recommend you to keep it in a safe place. [. . . ] After closing the lid again, press the START/PAUSE pushbutton. If you use a liquid detergent for a wash cycle with start delay, use a dosing ball that you place directly in the drum and select a programme without prewash. If you want to do a prewash at the same time as a start delay, please use a powder detergent. It is normal for the programme selector to remain stationary during the cycle. If a delayed start has been selected, the countdown appears on the display (hour by hour, then 90, and minute by minute from 60 min). The WASH (WASCHEN / LAVAGE) indicator lights up when the appliance is in progress. Adding washing during the first 10 minutes The lid can only be opened around 2 minutes after the washing machine has come to a stop. Before making any changes to the current programme, you need to pause the washing machine by pressing the START/PAUSE pushbutton. If the modification is not possible, "Err" flashes in the display window and the START/PAUSE button flashes in yellow for several seconds. If you still decide to change the programme, you must cancel the current programme (see below). If you want to cancel the programme, turn the programme selector to the STOP position. The washing machine stops automatically ; the START/PAUSE pushbutton goes out and "0" flashes on the display. The lid can only be opened around 2 minutes after the washing machine has come to a stop. Check that the drum is in fact empty: if any textiles remain inside, they could be damaged (shrunk) during the next wash or the colour could run onto other pieces of laundry. We recommend leaving the lid and drum open after use to ventilate the water tank. Stand by : once the programme has finished after a few minutes the energy saving system will be enabled. the brightness of the display is reduced. By pressing any button the appliance will come out of the energy saving status. Sort washing by type and care label (refer to International symbols section below) : normal wash for tough fabrics which can withstand intense washing and spinning cycles ; delicate wash for delicate fabrics which need to be treated with care. For mixed loads, loads with items of different types of material, choose a programme and a temperature suitable for the most fragile material. Wash whites and colours separately : Otherwise, whites will be coloured or will turn grey. New coloured clothes often contain excess dye. [. . . ] To install your washing machine at the same level as surrounding furniture, proceed as follows : Install the supplied water inlet hose at the rear of your washing machine by proceeding as follows (Do not reuse an old hose) : The connector at the end of the flexible hose can be attached to all common types of standpipe. Attach the connector to the standpipe with the hose clamp supplied with the appliance1). Place everything in a drainage point (or in a sink) at a height of between 70 and 100 cm. Air must be able to enter the end of the hose, to avoid any risk of siphoning. [. . . ]
