and select a programme that washes  
at a lower temperature.  
Oxygen based bleaches can be used  
together with detergents; however,  
if its thickness is not the same with  
the detergent, put the detergent first  
into the compartment nr. II” in the  
detergent drawer and wait until the  
detergent flows while the machine  
is taking in water. Add the bleaching  
agent from the same compartment  
while the machine is still taking in water.  
If the gel detergent thickness is fluidal  
and your machine does not contain  
a special liquid detergent cup, put  
the gel detergent into the main wash  
detergent compartment during first  
water intake. If your machine contains  
a liquid detergent cup, fill the detergent  
into this cup before starting the  
programme.  
If the gel detergent thickness is not  
fluidal or in the shape of capsule liquid  
tablet, put it directly into the drum  
before washing.  
Using limescale remover  
Put tablet detergents into the main  
wash compartment (compartment  
nr. II) or directly into the drum before  
washing.  
When required, use limescale removers  
manufactured specifically for washing  
machines only.  
Always follow instructions on the  
package.  
Tablet detergents may leave residues  
in the detergent compartment. If you

3. Some of our products have emergency  
draining hose and some does not have.  
Follow the steps below to discharge  
the water.  
cleaning the pump filter  
The filter system in your machine prevents  
solid items such as buttons, coins and  
fabric fibers clogging the pump impeller  
during discharge of washing water. Thus,  
the water will be discharged without any  
problem and the service life of the pump  
will extend.  
If the machine fails to drain water, the  
pump filter is clogged. Filter must be  
cleaned whenever it is clogged or in every  
3 months. Water must be drained off first  
to clean the pump filter.  
Discharging the water when the product  
has an emergency draining hose:  
In addition, prior to transporting the  
machine (eg., when moving to another  
house) and in case of freezing of the water,  
water may have to be drained completely.  
Foreign substances left in the pump  
filter may damage your machine or may  
cause noise problem.  
A
a. Pull the emergency draining hose out  
from its seat  
In order to clean the dirty filter and  
discharge the water:  
1. Unplug the machine to cut off the  
supply power.  
b. Place a large container at the end  
of the hose. Drain the water into the  
container by pulling out the plug at the  
end of the hose. When the container  
is full, block the inlet of the hose by  
replacing the plug. After the container  
Temperature of the water inside the  
machine may rise up to 90 ºC. To avoid  
burning risk, filter must be cleaned after

is emptied, repeat the above procedure  
to drain the water in the machine  
completely.  
c. When draining of water is finished,  
close the end by the plug again and fix  
the hose in its place.  
d. Turn the pump filter to take it out.  
Discharging the water when the product  
does not have an emergency draining  
hose:  
a. Place a large container in front of the  
filter to catch water from the filter.  
b. Loosen pump filter (anticlockwise) until  
water starts to flow. Fill the flowing  
water into the container you have  
placed in front of the filter. Always keep  
a piece of cloth handy to absorb any  
spilled water.  
c. When the water inside the machine is  
finished, take out the filter completely  
by turning it.  
4. Clean any residues inside the filter as  
well as fibers, if any, around the pump  
impeller region.  
5. Install the filter.  
If your product has a water jet feature,  
A
be sure to fit the filter into its housing  
in the pump. Never force the filter  
while installing it into its housing. Seat  
the filter into its place completely.  
Otherwise, water may leak from the  
filter cap.  
6. If the filter cap is composed of two  
pieces, close the filter cap by pressing  
on the tab. If it is one piece, seat the  
tabs in the lower part into their places  
first, and then press the upper part to  
close.
