4.1.4 Connecting water supply
The water supply pressure required to run the product is between 1 to 10 bars (0.1 – 1 MPa). It is necessary to have
10 – 80 liters of water flowing from the fully open tap in one minute to have your machine run smoothly. Attach a
pressure reducing valve if water pressure is higher.
C
If you are going to use the double water-inlet product as a single (cold) water-inlet unit, you must install the
supplied stopper to the hot water valve before operating the product. (Applies for the products supplied with a
blind stopper group.)
CAUTION: Models with a single water inlet should not be connected to the hot water tap. In such a case the
laundry will get damaged or the product will switch to protection mode and will not operate.
A
CAUTION: Do not use old or used water inlet hoses on the new product. It may cause stains on your laundry.
Connect the special water supply hoses supplied with the product to the water
inlets on the product. Red hose (left) (max. 90 ºC) is for hot water inlet, blue hose
(right) (max. 25 ºC) is for cold water inlet.
Make sure that the hot and cold water taps are connected correctly when the
product is being installed. Otherwise, your laundry will come out hot at the end of
the washing process and wear out.

Moreover, there is risk of scalding due to high washing temperatures! In order to prevent such situations and
A
make sure that the machine performs water intake and discharge processes without any problem, fix the drain
hose securely.
• Connect the drain hose to a minimum height of 40
cm and a maximum height of 100 cm.
• In case the drain 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 excessively
wet. Therefore, follow the heights described in the
figure.
• To prevent the waste water to go back into the machine again and to ensure easy drainage, do not
immerse the end of the hose into the waste water or do not insert it into the drain for more than
15 cm. If it is too long, cut it short.
• The end of the hose should not be bent, it should not be stepped on and the hose must not be
pinched between the drain and the machine.
• If the length of the hose is too short, use it by adding an original extension hose. Length of the
hose may not be longer than 3.2 m. To avoid water leak 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.

C
Furthermore, you may also select or cancel auxiliary functions that are suitable to the running
programme after the washing cycle starts. If the wash cycle has reached a point where no auxiliary
function can be selected, an audio warning will be given and the related auxiliary function's light will
flash.
Some functions cannot be selected together. If a second auxiliary function 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
C
Additional Water, Additional Water will be canceled and Quick Wash will remain active.
An auxiliary function that is not compatible with the programme cannot be selected. (See, “Programme and
consumption table")
Some programmes have auxiliary functions that must be operated simultaneously. Those functions cannot be
cancelled. The frame of the auxiliary function will not be illuminated, only inner area will be illuminated.
• Prewash
A Prewash is only worthwhile for heavily soiled laundry. Not using the Prewash will save energy,
water, detergent and time.
• Quick Wash
This function can be used in Cottons and Synthetics programmes. It decreases the washing times
and also the number of rinsing steps for lightly soiled laundry.
When you select this function, load your machine with half of the maximum laundry specified in the programme
table.
C
• Rinse Plus
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.
• Rinse Hold
If you are not going to unload your clothes immediately after the programme completes, you can
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.
The programme resumes. Water is drained, laundry is spun and the programme is completed.
• Pet Hair Removal
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.
WARNING: Never wash your pets in the washing machine.

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 (e.g., when moving to another house) and in case of
freezing of the water, water may have to be drained completely.
