Connecting to the water supply.
Important:
•
The water supply pressure required to
run the machine must be 1-10 bar (0,1
– 1 MPa). (Practically, it is necessary
to have 10 – 80 liters of water flowing
from the tap in one minute to have
your machine run smoothly.) Attach a
pressure-reducing valve if the water
pressure is higher.
•
Models with a single water inlet should
not be connected to the hot water
tap. Laundry may be damaged or the
appliance may switch to protection
mode and not work.
•
Connect the special hose supplied with
the machine to the water intake valves
on the machine.
When returning the appliance to its place
after maintenance or cleaning, care should
be taken not to fold, squeeze or block the
hoses.
Connecting to the drain
The water discharge hose can be attached
to the edge of a washbasin or waste water
system. The drain hose should be firmly
fitted into the drain as to not loosen in its
housing.
•
In order to prevent water leakage that
may occur at the connection points,
there are rubber seals (4 seals for the
models with double water inlet and 2
seals for other models) attached to the
hoses. These seals should be used at
the tap and machine connection ends
of the hoses. The plain end of the hose
fitted with a filter must be attached to
the tap and the elbowed end must be
attached to the machine. Tighten the
nuts of the hose well by hand; never
use wrenches to tighten the nuts.
Open the taps completely after making
the hose connection to check if there
is any water leakage at the connection
points. Turn off the tap and remove the
nut in case of any leakage. Retighten
the nut carefully after checking the seal.
To prevent any water leakage and any
other damage to be caused by it, keep
the taps closed when the machine is
not in use.
Important:
•
The end of the drain hose can be
directly connected to the wastewater
drain or to the washbasin. The
fitting must be secured in all types
of connections. Your house may be
flooded if the hose falls out of its
housing during water discharging.
The hose should be attached to a
height of at least 40 cm, and 100 cm at
most.
•
•
•
In case the hose is elevated after
laying it on the floor level or close to
the ground (less than 40 cm above the
10 - EN
ground), water discharge becomes
more difficult and the laundry may
come out wet. Therefore, the heights
described in the figure should be
followed.
To prevent dirty water refilling the
machine, and to allow for easy

Packaging material can be dangerous to
children. Keep the packaging materials out

discharge, the end of the hose must not
be submerged in the drain water. The
end of the hose must be able to take in
air. The hose should be pushed into the
drainage for more than 15 cm. If it is too
long you may have it shortened.
The end of the hose should not be bent,
it should not be stepped on and it must
not be folded between the drain and the
machine.
The length of the hose is too short,
you may add an extension hose to the
original section. The length of the hose
must not be longer than 3.2 m after
coming out of the machine. To avoid
water leakage failures, the connection
between the extension hose and the
drain hose of the product must be fitted
well with an appropriate clamp as not to
come off and leak.
Packaging materials of your machine are
manufactured from recyclable materials.
Disposing of the old machine
Dispose of your old appliance in an
environmental friendly manner.
•
•
•
You may refer to your local agent or
solid waste collection center in your
municipality to learn how to dispose of
your machine.
Before disposing of your old washing
machine, cut off the mains plug and make
the door lock unusable.
Electrical connection
Connect the machine to an earthed outlet
protected by a fuse of suitable capacity.
Important:
•
•
•
Connection should comply with national
regulations.
Power cord plug must be within easy
reach after installation.
The voltage and the allowed fuse
protection are specified in the section
“Technical Specifications”.
•
•
The specified voltage must be equal to
your mains voltage.
Connection via extension cords or multi-
plugs should not be made.
A damaged power cable must be
replaced by a qualified electrician.
A faulty appliance must not be operated
whilst faulty until it has been repaired!

Inlet water filters
There is a filter at the end of each water
intake valve at the back side of the machine
and also at the end of each water intake
hose where they are connected to the tap.
These filters prevent the foreign substances
and dirt in the water to enter into the
machine. Filters should be cleaned as they
get dirty.
If more than a normal amount of water
C
and softener mixture starts to gather in
the softener compartment, the siphon
must be cleaned.
2. Wash the dispenser drawer and the
siphon with plenty of lukewarm water
in a washbasin. Wear protective gloves
or use an appropriate brush to avoid
touching the residues in the drawer
when cleaning.
3. Replace the drawer into its housing
after cleaning. Check if the siphon is in
its original location.

After each wash:
•
Check if there are any foreign
substances in the drum.
Open the hole in the bellow with the aid
of a toothpick if it is clogged.
•
•
•
Close the taps.
Remove the nuts of the water intake
hoses to clean the surfaces of the
filters on the water intake valves with an
appropriate brush.
•
•
If the filters are very dirty, you can pull
them out by means of pliers and clean
them.
Take out the filters on the flat ends of
the water intake hoses together with
the gaskets and clean thoroughly under

and tighten the hose nuts by hand.
Draining any remaining water
and cleaning the pump filter
Filter system in your machine prevents solid
items such as buttons, coins and fabric
fibers clogging the pump propeller during
discharging of the washing water. Thus, a
good water discharge is achieved and the
pump life is extended.
3- An emergency drain hose is supplied
with some of our models. Others are not
supplied with this item.
•
If your machine fails to drain the water,
the pump filter may be clogged. You
may have to clean it every 2 years or
whenever it is blocked plugged. Water
must be drained off to clean the pump
filter.
If your product is supplied with an
emergency drain hose, do the following as
shown in the figure below:
In addition, water may have to be drained
off completely in the following cases:
•
•
before transporting the machine (e.g.
when moving house)
when there is the danger of frost
In order to clean the dirty filter and
discharge the water;
1- Disconnect or unplug the machine from
the power supply.
•
•
Pull out the pump outlet hose from its
housing.
There may be water at 90°C in the
A
machine. Therefore, the filter must be
cleaned only after the inside water
is cooled down to avoid hazard of
scalding.
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.
2- Open the filter cap. The filter cap may be
composed of one or two pieces according
to the model of your machine.
If it is composed of two pieces, press the
tab on the filter cap downwards and pull the
piece out towards yourself.
•
If your product is not supplied with an
emergency drain hose, do the following as
shown in the figure below:
If it is composed of one piece, hold it from
both sides and open it by pulling out.
You can remove the filter cover
C
by slightly pushing the kick plate
downwards with a screwdriver, through
the gap above the filter cover.
•
Place a large container in front of the
27 - EN
filter to receive water flowing from the
filter.
•
Loosen pump filter (anticlockwise) until
water starts to flow out of it. Direct the
flowing water into the container you
have placed in front of the filter. You
can use a piece of cloth to absorb any
spilled water.
•
•
•
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
propeller region.
If your product has a water jet feature,
be sure to fit the filter into its housing
in the pump. 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.
