When contacting a OTSEIN or one of its Technical Assistance
Centre always refer to the model (see control panel) and the
registration and series numbers which are indicated at the bottom of
the machine under the lower panel or on the warranty certificate. That
is to say, everything that appears in the box.
Providing this information will ensure a faster and more efficient service.

DETERGENT DISPENSER
The detergent dispenser is divided into 4 compartments:
• Compartment I, is for prewash powder detergent. The recommended quantity is 60
gm of detergent (for 4,5 kg of laundry).
• Compartment II, is for wash powder detergent. The recommended quantity is 120
gm of detergent (for 4,5 kg of laundry).
• The compartment is for bleach. The recommended quantity is 70 c.c.
• The compartment is for fabric conditioners, scenting agents and special
additives. The recommended quantity is 50 c.c.
The detergent compartment has two guidance lines:
• RECOMMENDED (lower line). This indicates the recommended level for the prewash
and wash compartments.
• MAX. This indicates the maximum level which should never be exceeded.

RECOMMENDED
VARIABLE CAPACITY
This washing machine automatically adapts the water level to the type and quantity of clothes
to be washed. So it is possible to obtain a «customised» wash, even in terms of energy. This
system reduces water and energy consumption and provides an appreciable reduction in
wash time.
PROGRAMME SELECTION
WHEN SELECTING A PROGRAMME, ENSURE THAT THE START/STOP BUTTON IS NOT
ACTIVATED.
To select a programme:
• Programmes are selected by means of the corresponding control knob (A). See the
table of programmes.
• Select the wash temperature by means of the corresponding control knob.
• Select the spin speed by means of the corresponding control knob.
• Select the different options available by pressing the corresponding buttons.
SAFETY AQUABLOCK
(Mod. LTO 126 A)
This appliance is fitted with a safety system (aquablock), which ensures
maximum freedom from anxiety for users. A water leak detector sensor
located along the inlet pipe and the devoce fitted to the tap, automatically
block the flow of water in the case of accidental leaks. Even without
electricity supply.
