carry out.

• Read all instructions before using the

washer.

• Do not wash articles that have been

previously cleaned in, washed in,

soaked in, or spotted with gasoline,

dry-cleaning solvents, or other

flammable or explosive substances

(acetone, alcohol, kerosene, some

liquid household cleaners, some spot

removers, turpentine, waxes and wax

removers) as they give off vapors that

could ignite or explode.

• This appliance must only be used

for the purpose of washing, rinsing

and spinning machine-washable

items using laundry additives that

are suitable for use in washers . The

appliance manufacturer cannot be

held responsible for damage caused

Make sure power button is off before

loading the washer. To load the

washer,

• Pull the door handle.

• Place laundry items loosely in the

drum.

• Mix small and large items for an even

load distribution. Large items should

be loaded first. Large items should

not be more than half of the total

wash load.

• If you put a wash bag or net which

is filled with small items in the drum,

put an additional wash bag to

prevent load unbalance. Both wash

bags should have the same amount

of items to provide an even load

distribution.

• Before washing a single or a few

items such as a pillow, a teddy bear,

a single or a pair of shirts, sweat

shirts etc, put some additional items

in the drum for better load distribution

and spinning.

• Make sure that there is no clothing

obstructing the door or caught

between the door and rubber seal.

• Push the loading door firmly shut until

you hear it lock into space (especially

if you load the washer with full load or

big items).

Preparing the laundry

• Items of laundry with metal parts (e.g.

underwire bras, belt buckles, metal

buttons) will damage the washer.

Remove metal parts of place the

items in a cloth bag, pillow case, or

something similar.

• Remove any non-washable items

and accessories from laundry before

washing.

• Empty pockets, remove all foreign

objects (e.g. coins, pens, paper

clips). If possible: Turn pockets inside

out and brush.

• Place small items of laundry (e.g.

tights) in a cloth bag, pillow case or

something similar. This can also help

you to avoid searching for lost socks.

• Handle curtains special care. Remove

non-stainless curtain runners and

lead tape. Place runners that can’t be

removed in a cloth bag, pillow case

or something similar.

• Heavy stains should be pretreated

with soapy water appropriately before

washing (Do not rub or scratch the

stained area). If in doubt, check with

a chemist or dry-cleaner.

• In case the door is not locked,

“door” expression will appeare on the

screen. In that case, door should be

opened and closed again firmly.

• If the door is not closed completely,

the machine will not start. This is a

safety precaution. The front door

is locked until end of the washing

program and it can not be opened

untill the door icon on LCD is off

following the end of the program.

• Unload the washed items just after

the program cycle has finished. Delay

of unloading may cause wrinkling and

unwanted odor on laundry.

• Use only dyes/discoloring and anti-

scaling agents suitable for machine

wash. Make sure to follow the

instructions on the package.

AWARNING - Wash jeans, delicates,

pants and sweat-shirts inside-out.

Loading the washer

Maximum load capacity depends on the

fabric type of laundry, soiling amount of

C Your washer is designed to use only

HE (high efficiency) detergents. You

should always look for the following

symbol on the label of detergents:

If you use a non-HE detergent with this

Detergent Dispenser

Detergent dispenser of your washer

has three separate compartments for

main wash detergent, fabric softener

and liquid bleach. Each of these laundry

additives are automatically dispensed at

appropriate time during wash program.

C Do not put laundry additives directly

in the wash drum. Always use the

detergent dispenser.

C The detergents labeled as “HE

compatible” may also lead to high

sudsing and inefficient tumble action.

Don’t use such detergents.

C After adding laundry additives do not

close the drawer too quickly. This

may cause early dispensing of the

additives thus poor wash results and

fabric damage.

C Do not open the drawer during wash

program (except for addition of liquid

main wash detergent at the beginning

of main wash water intake).

Always follow the instructions and

information given by laundry detergent

manufacturers when using these

products.

AWARNING –Store laundry detergents

and additives in a cool, dry place out

of children’s reach due to danger of

chemical poisoning and skin irritation.

Dispenser compartments are as follows:

-left compartment numbered as “II”

(main wash compartment)

-middle compartment marked as “

(liquid fabric softener compartment)

-right compartment numbered as “I”

(liquid chlorine bleach compartment)

”

Detergent Quantity

The amount of washing detergent to use

depends on the amount of laundry, the

degree of soiling and water hardness.

For small amounts of laundry or only

slight soiling use accordingly less

detergent.

Too much detergent causes an

excessive amount of foaming, bad

washing and rinsing results and a strain

on water resources.

Too little washing detergent causes

laundry to turn grey and calcification of

the machine. Recommended amount of

1/3 cup (80 ml) of bleach and pour it

into the special container located in the

right compartment of the dispenser.

This container ensures dispensing and

dilution of bleach during the first rinse

of wash cycle. There is a maximum fill

line on the container. Do not exceed

the maximum fill line to prevent early

dispensing. Early dispensing may

damage your clothes.

C Be sure that bleach container is

present in the right compartment

of dispenser before you add liquid

bleaching agent. You may remove

bleach container if you would not

use bleach. However do not put any

other laundry additives to the empty

compartment.

If you use a liquid detergent, be sure

to use a HE (High efficiency) detergent

and add detergent directly to main

wash compartment before operating

your washer. If you observe liquid

detergent stains on washed items,

it is recommended for subsequent

wash cycles that you should add liquid

detergent during first water intake.

C Be sure to choose extra rinse option

if you are using bleach in wash

program. Bleach must be rinsed from

laundry properly otherwise it may

cause skin irritation.

Color-safe bleach in powder or liquid

form may be added into main wash

detergent compartment with main wash

detergent. Be sure to use main wash

detergent and color-safe bleach in same

form (either powder or liquid) when

adding into main wash compartment.

Bleach is automatically dispensed and

diluted during the first rinse of wash

program.

C WARNING – Bleach may only

be used in Regular/Cotton and

Permanent Press cycles. Don’t

use bleach with delicates, hand

washables or wools, it will lead to

clothes damage.

Liquid Fabric Softener Compartment

Add the recommended amount of

liquid fabric softener to the middle

compartment marked as “ ” and dilute

it with warm water to the maximum fill

line.

C Especially concentrated fabric

softeners must be diluted with warm

water otherwise siphon may be

clogged in time.

Water Consumption

Your clothes washer automatically

adjusts the water consumption

according to load amount. This feature

ensures high wash performance

results with efficient water and energy

consumption.

Do not fill the fabric softener above the

maximum fill line as any excess amount

will mix into the wash water and you will

have to re-fill the compartment. Do not

pour the softener directly onto laundry, it

may cause stains.

Liquid fabric softener is automatically

dispensed during the final rinse of wash

program.

AWARNING – Be sure to unplug

the power cable before attempting

maintenance or cleaning of your

appliance to minimize the risk of

electric shock.

Cleaning detergent dispenser

Remove any powder/liquid residue

buildup in the dispenser drawer. To do

this;

Cleaning the drum

Check the wash drum for any foreign

objects after unloading your washer.

Residual metal objects such as pins

and coins may form rust stains on drum

surface and your clothes. Do not use

abrasive materials while cleaning the

inner surface of the drum. Use soapy

water with a damp cloth to wipe the

inner surface, then dry it and leave the

door open to let inside dry properly.

1. Press the dotted point on the siphon

of the softener compartment and

pull towards yourself until the it is

removed from the dispenser.

3 If more than a normal amount of

water and softener/bleach mixture

starts to gather in the dispenser

compartments, dispenser must be

cleaned.

2. Wash the dispenser drawer, liquid

chlorine bleach container and siphon

of softener under running warm

water in a sink etc. Wear protective

gloves or use an appropriate brush

or sponge to avoid touching the

detergent residues in the drawer

when cleaning.

Sanitary cycle with extra rinse option

should be used for monthly cleaning of

drum. To carry out this procedure:

First be sure that the drum is empty.

Add 80ml of liquid chlorine bleach

to the bleach container in the right

compartment of the dispenser.

Select sanitary cycle, close the door

and press “start/pause” button. At the

completion of cycle, leave the door open

for drying of drum interior.

3. Replace the drawer into its housing

after cleaning. Check if the siphon

and container are in their original

locations.

necessary for removal of bacteria

and mold residues and prevention of

unwanted odor in wash drum.

Cleaning the door seal

Be sure to check the rubber door seal

after unloading your washer. Pull the seal

back to search for any foreign objects.

Residual metal objects such as pins and

coins may form rust stains on rubber

seal, and cause the seal to leak.

filter.

In addition, water may have to be

drained off completely in the following

cases:

Cleaning the water inlet

strainers

There is a strainer at the end of each

water inlet valve at the back side of

the washer and also at the end of

each water inlet hose where they

are connected to the faucets. These

strainers prevent the foreign substances

and dirt in the water to enter into the

washer. Strainers should be cleaned

from time to time.

• before transporting the appliance

(e.g. when moving )

• when there is a danger of frost

In order to clean the dirty filter and

discharge the water;

1- Disconnect or unplug the washer

from the power supply.

AWARNING - There may be water at

158F (70°C) in the drum. Therefore,

the filter must be cleaned only after

the inside water is cooled down to

avoid hazard of scalding.

• Close the water faucets.

• Remove the nuts of the water inlet

hoses to clean the surfaces of the

strainers on the water inlet valves with

an appropriate brush.

2- Open the filter cap. The filter cap

may be composed of one or two pieces

according to the model of your washer.

If it is composed of two pieces, press

the tab on the filter cap downwards and

pull the piece out towards yourself.

• If the strainers are very dirty, you can

pull them out by means of pliers and

clean them.

If it is composed of one piece, hold it

from both sides and open it by pulling

out.

• Take out the strainers on the flat ends

of the water inlet hoses together with

the rubber seals and clean thoroughly

under running water.

• Replace the rubber seals and

strainers carefully and tighten the

hose nuts by hand.

Cleaning the drain pump filter

Filter system in your washer prevents

solid items such as buttons, coins and

fabric fibers clogging the pump impeller

during discharging of the washing

water. Thus, a good water discharge is

achieved and the pump life is extended.

• If your washer fails to drain the water,

the pump filter may be clogged. You

may have to clean it occasionally to

prevent any clogging. Water must be

drained completely to clean the pump

3- An emergency drain hose is supplied

with your washer.

Do the following as shown in the figure

below:

• Pull out the emergency drain hose

from its housing.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

30 EN

Take the manufacturer’s instructions

into account if you are using a

descaling agent. Descaling agents

may contain materials that are

hazardous for washer components.

Use descaling agents compatible for

use in clothes washers.

When using a powder descaling

agent, add 1 cup to the main wash

compartment of the dispenser and

run a regular hot cycle (with extra

rinse) without any clothes and

detergents.

• Place a large container at the end of

the hose. Drain the water off into the

container by pulling out the plug at

the end of the hose. If the amount of

water to be drained off is greater than

the volume of the container, replace

the plug, pour the water out, then

resume the draining process.

• After draining process is completed,

replace the plug into the end of the

hose and fit the hose back into its

place.

• When there is no water left, turn the

pump filter until it is completely loose

and remove it.

• Clean any residues inside the filter

as well as fibers, if any, around the

impeller region.

• Never force the filter while replacing it

into its housing. Fit the filter fully into

its housing; otherwise, water may

leak from the filter cap.

4- Close the filter cap.

Close the two-piece filter cap of your

product by pushing the tab on it.

Close the one-piece filter cap of your

product by fitting the tabs on the bottom

into their positions and pushing the

upper part of it.

Descaling the washer

Hard water can cause scale build-

up inside the drum and other parts

of your washer in time. Scaling may

lead to some serious problems such

as clogging in hoses, heater or pump

failure eventually.

To prevent scaling, wash drum should

be cleaned frequently. Do not use

abrasive materials such as metal wool

while cleaning the drum.
