you wash less amount (e.g. ½ capacity
or less) of laundry. In this case energy
and water consumption will be further
decreased giving you the opportunity for
a more economical wash. This feature
is available for certain models having

EN
• Extra Rinse
The auxiliary functions in the table
may vary according to the model of
your machine.
C
This function enables the machine to
make another rinsing in addition to the
one already made after the main wash.
Thus, the risk for sensitive skins (babies,
allergic skins, etc.) to be effected by
the minimal detergent remnants on the
laundry can be reduced.
Auxiliary function selection
Select the desired auxiliary functions
before starting the programme.
Furthermore, you may also select or
cancel auxiliary functions that are suitable
to the running programme without
pressing the Start / Pause button when
the machine is operating. For this, the
machine must be in a step before the
auxiliary function you are going to select
or cancel.
• Anti-Creasing
This function creases the clothes lesser
when they are being washed. Drum
movement is reduced and spinning speed
is limited to prevent creasing. In addition,
washing is done with a higher water level.
• Rinse Hold
If the auxiliary function cannot be selected
or canceled, light of the relevant auxiliary
function will blink 3 times to warn the user.
If you are not going to unload your
clothes immediately after the programme
completes, you may use rinse hold
function to keep your laundry in the final
rinsing water in order to prevent them
from getting wrinkled when there is no
water in the machine. Press Start / Pause
button after this process if you want to
drain the water without spinning your
laundry. Programme will resume and
complete after draining the water.
If you want to spin the laundry held in
water, adjust the Spin Speed and press
Start / Pause button.
Some functions cannot be selected
C

conflicting with the first one is
selected before starting the machine,
the function selected first will be
canceled and the second auxiliary
function selection will remain active.
For example, if you want to select
Quick Wash after you have selected
the Prewash, Prewash will be
canceled and Quick Wash will remain
active.
The programme resumes. Water
is drained, laundry is spun and the
programme is completed.
An auxiliary function that is not
C
compatible with the programme
cannot be selected. (See "Programme
and consumption table")
• Soaking
The Soaking auxiliary function ensures
better removal of stains ingrained into the
clothes by holding them in the detergent
water prior to startup of the programme.
• Pet hair removal
Auxiliary Function buttons may
C
vary according to the model of the
machine.
• Prewash
A Prewash is only worthwhile for heavily
soiled laundry. Not using the Prewash will
save energy, water, detergent and time.
This function helps to remove pet hair that
remain on your garments more effectively.
When you select this function, Prewash
and Extra Rinse steps are added to the
normal programme. Thus, washing is
performed with more water (30%) and the
pet hair is removed more effectively.
Prewash without detergent is
recommended for tulle and curtains.

Clean the detergent drawer at regular
intervals (every 4-5 washing cycles)
as shown below in order to prevent
accumulation of powder detergent in
time.
(compartment nr. II). If the anti-limescale
is in tablet form, put only one tablet into
compartment nr. II. Dry the inside of the
bellow with a clean piece of cloth after the
programme has come to an end.
Repeat Drum Cleaning process in
C
every 2 months.
Use an anti-limescale suitable for the
washing machines.
C
After every washing make sure that no
foreign substance is left in the drum.
1. Press the dotted point on the siphon
in the softener compartment and pull
towards you until the compartment is
removed from the machine.
If the holes on the bellow shown in the
figure is blocked, open the holes using a
toothpick.
If more than normal amount of water
and softener mixture starts to gather
in the softener compartment, the
siphon must be cleaned.
C
Foreign metal substances in your
C
machine will cause rust stains. Clean
the stains on the drum surface by
using cleaning agents for stainless
steel. Never use steel wool or wire
wool.
2. Wash the detergent drawer and the
siphon with plenty of lukewarm water
in a washbasin. Wear protective
gloves or use an appropriate brush to
avoid touching of the residues in the
drawer with your skin when cleaning.
3. Insert the drawer back into its place
after cleaning and make sure that it is
seated well.
Cleaning the body
and control panel
Wipe the body of the machine with
soapy water or non-corrosive mild gel
detergents as necessary, and dry with a
soft cloth.
Cleaning the loading
door and the drum
Use only a soft and damp cloth to clean
the control panel.
Residues of softener, detergent and
dirt may accumulate in your machine in
time and may cause unpleasant odours
and washing complaints. To avoid this,
use the Drum Cleaning programme. If
your machine is not featured with Drum
Cleaning programme, use Cottons-90
programme and select Additional Water
or Extra Rinse auxiliary functions as well.
Before starting the programme, put
max. 100 g of powder anti-limescale into
the main wash detergent compartment
Never use sponge or scrub materials.
These will damage the painted and
plastic surfaces.
A
Cleaning the water intake filters
There is a filter at the end of each water
intake valve at the rear of the machine
and also at the end of each water
intake hose where they are connected
to the tap. These filters prevent foreign
substances and dirt in the water to enter
the washing machine. Filters should be
28
EN
cleaned as they do get dirty.
Temperature of the water inside the
machine may rise up to 90 ºC. To
avoid burning risk, filter must be
cleaned after the water in the machine
cools down.
A

too dirty, take them out by means of
pliers and clean them.
3. Take out the filters on the flat ends of
the water intake hoses together with
the gaskets and clean thoroughly
under running water.
If the filter cap is one piece, pull the cap
from both sides at the top to open.
4. Replace the gaskets and filters
carefully in their places and tighten the
hose nuts by hand.
Draining remaining water and
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.
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.
You can remove the filter cover by
