We recommend that the first wash cycle be made without laundry.
This will remove any residual water used by the manufacturer in testing your washing machine.

Add a small amount of detergent (maximum 1/3 of the quantity the detergent manufacturer
recommends for lightly soiled laundry) to the main wash chamber of the detergent dispenser.

Select and start programme “Synthetics” at 60°C (see separate programme chart).

Press the
“Start (Pause)”
button.
