[. . . ] Remove the bottom protection by tilting and turning the washing machine on one rear bottom corner. Make sure that the plastic part of the bottom protection (if available on the model) remains in the packing and not in the machine bottom. This is important, as otherwise the plastic part could damage the washing machine during operation. d. Open the lid by pressing it slightly down while raising the handle. [. . . ] Fit the replacement 13 A fuse into the fuse cover. For all other types of plug, the supply socket should be protected by a 16 A fuse or circuit breaker at the distribution board. GB 5 BEFORE THE FIRST WASH CYCLE To remove any residual water used in testing by the manufacturer, we recommend that you carry out a short wash cycle without laundry. - by holding the rear drum flap, sliding back the slider into arrow direction and pushing the front flap towards the inside of the drum until the closing mechanism releases (for “1c”). Place the items of laundry into the drum one by one. Do not exceed the maximum load of the programmes indicated in the separate programme chart. - Overloading the machine will result in unsatisfactory washing results and creased laundry. - Take care that the laundry does not overhang the drum; if this is the case, push the laundry down into the drum so that there is enough free space to close the drum flaps properly. - Do not use the flaps to push the laundry into the drum. To close the drum, hold both flaps in the middle again (picture “2”), the rear flap over the front flap. ATTENTION: make sure that the drum flaps are properly locked - depending on the model: - the metal hook must be completely hooked into the rear door flap - see picture “2a”, or - all metal hooks must be properly hooked inside the rear door flap, and the button must overlap the edge of the rear door flap - see picture “2b”. - the slider of the front flap must slightly overlap the rear flap - see picture “2c”. • Never put both chlorine bleach and softener into the softener chamber at the same time. Using starch powder If you want to use starch powder, proceed as follows: • Wash your laundry in the desired wash programme. • Prepare the starch solution according to the starch manufacturer’s instructions. • Fill the prepared starch solution (maximum 100 ml) into the softener chamber of the detergent dispenser. • Close the lid and start programme “Rinse and Spin”. CLEANING THE FILTER/ DRAINING RESIDUAL WATER The washing machine is provided with a self-cleaning pump. The filter keeps objects like buttons, coins, safetypins etc. We recommend to check and clean the filter regularly, at least two or three times a year. Especially: • if the appliance is not draining properly or if it fails to perform spin cycles. • if the “Clean pump” indication lights up. IMPORTANT: make sure the water has cooled before draining the appliance. Residual water must be drained also before transporting the machine. Turn the filter slowly anti-clockwise until the grip is vertical; do not remove it as yet. [. . . ] Open lid and close drum flaps, then select and start desired programme again. If fault persists, notify our After-Sales Service. “Electrical module fault” Select and start “Drain” programme or push “Reset” button for at least 3 seconds. “Water level too high” (after programme cancellation or false operating).
