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 hoses supplied
with the machine to the water intake
valves on the machine. The hose
bearing the “red” sign (90°C max)
is the hot water inlet and the hose
bearing the “blue” sign (25°C max) is
for the cold water inlet.
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
bathtub. The drain hose should be firmly
fitted into the drain as to not loosen in its
housing.
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.
•
If you are going to use your double
water-inlet machine as a single (cold)
water-inlet unit, you must install the
stopper*, supplied with your machine
to the hot water valve.
If you want to use both water inlets of
the product, you can connect the hot
water hose after removing the stopper
and gasket group from the hot water
valve.
•
* Applies for the products supplied
with a blind stopper group.
•
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.
•
•
In case the hose is elevated after
laying it on the floor level or close to
the ground (less than 40 cm above the
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
EN

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.

Cleaning and care
Clean the drum with a stainless steel
cleaning agent. Never use steel wool
or wire wool.
Detergent drawer
Remove any powder residue buildup in
the drawer. To do this;
1. Press the dotted point on the siphon
in the softener compartment and pull
towards you until the compartment is
removed from the machine.
Outer cabinet and control panel
When necessary:
•
Wipe the exterior panels of your
machine with soapy water or mild
detergent. Dry it with a soft cloth.
Use only a soft and damp cloth to
clean the control panel.
•
Never use a sponge or scrubbing
material. These will damage the
painted and plastic parts.
C
Inlet water filters
If more than a normal amount of water
and softener mixture starts to gather
in the softener compartment, the
siphon must be cleaned.
C
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.
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.
The door and the drum
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
Foreign metal substances in your
machine can cause rust stains. In

carefully and tighten the hose nuts by
hand.
You can remove the filter cover
by slightly pushing the kick plate
downwards with a screwdriver,
through the gap above the filter cover.
C
•
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.
There may be water at 90°C in the
machine. Therefore, the filter must be
cleaned only after the inside water
is cooled down to avoid hazard of
scalding.
A
•
•
Pull out the pump outlet hose from its
housing.
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.
EN
25
•
•
Place a large container in front of the
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.
