Before using for the first time
Before using the machine for the
first time ensure that it is correctly in-
stalled and connected. See the rele-
vant section under “Installation”.
Also check that the fluff filter is se-
curely tightened. Otherwise there is
a risk of water leakage during use.
For safety reasons spinning is not
possible until the machine has been
prepared for using for the first time.
To activate the spinning function you
must run a wash programme without
any laundry and
without detergent.
(Using detergent could result in an ex-
cessive build-up of foam).
This also activates the ball valve. The
ball valve prevents detergent escaping
from the suds container into the sump
during a wash programme, thus mak-
ing maximum use of the detergent.
1 Turn on the stopcock.
2 Press the I-ON/0-OFF button in.
3 Turn the programme selector to
COTTONS 40°C.
4 Press START.
5 At the end of the wash programme:
Turn the programme selector to Fin-
ish.
For the load size indicator to work
effectively, the sensor must also be
calibrated to zero as you would with
bathroom scales:
Calibrating to zero
6 Press the Door button and open the
drum door.
7 Turn the empty drum round once by
hand.
8 Turn the programme selector to one
of the temperatures for the COT-
TONS programme.
The Load % indicator light will come on.
9 Press the button above the START
button for least 5 seconds. The dis-
play will jump to Detergent % and 40
will appear in the display. The sen-
sor has been calibrated to zero
when the 40 in the display goes out.
The accuracy of the measuring de-
vice will improve over the first few
programmes. For this reason, please
re-calibrate the sensor to zero after
each of the first few wash cycles.
If the sensor is not calibrated to zero
then the values displayed by the
washing machine will be incorrect.
