Detergents and laundry
Detergent dispenser drawer
Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of
detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessarily
result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause build
up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to envi-
ronmental pollution.
! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for
pre-washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.
! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.
! Do not use hand washing detergents because these
create too much foam.
Open the detergent di-
spenser drawer and pour
in the detergent or washing
additive, as follows.
! Do not put the detergent into compartment 1.
! The detergent must be put only in the compartment 2.
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle
(powder or liquid)
Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately
prior to the start of the wash cycle.
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
Note: If a “tablet detergent” is used, always follow the ma-
nufacturer’s instructions.
Preparing the laundry
• Divide the laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
• Do not exceed the values listed in the “Table of wash
cycles”, which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry.
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
Fast daily cycles
A complete set of fast programmes to wash the most
commonly used fabrics - even with a full load - and to
remove the most frequent daily dirt in less than 1 hour.
Mix Coloured 59’: to wash mixed and coloured items
together.
Synthetics 59’: specific for synthetic items. If the dirt is
difficult to remove, the temperature can be increased up to
60° and powder detergent can be used too.
Cotton 45’: short cycle designed to wash delicate cotton
items.

Special wash cycles
Wash&Dry 90’: The cycle guarantees the washing
and drying performances for a 2 kg load in 90 minutes
(level “A1” Iron dry); for larger loads, the cycle’s duration
increases in order to guarantee the cycle performances.
Wash&Dry 45’: select programme
5
for washing and
drying lightly soiled garments (Cotton and Synthetic) in a
short time. This cycle may be used to wash and dry a
laundry load of up to 1 kg in just 45 minutes (level “A1”
Iron dry). To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent
and pre-treat cuffs, collars and stains.
AirFresh 30’ (programme
6
) ideal cycle to refresh
garments and remove bad odours, in particular smoke,
from cotton and synthetic items in 30’ (max 1.5kg) without
the washing phase.
Wool: all wool garments can be washed using programme
7, even those carrying the “hand-wash only” label. For
best results, use special detergents and do not exceed 2
kg of laundry.
Delicates: use programme 8 to wash very delicate
garments. It is advisable to turn the garments inside out
before washing them. For best results, use liquid detergent
on delicate garments.
To wash Silk garments and Curtains select cycle 8 and then
option “EASY IRON”; the machine will end the cycle while the
laundry is soaking and the “EASY IRON” indicator light will
flash. To drain the water so that the laundry may be removed,
press the START/PAUSE button or the “EASY IRON” button.
When selecting an exclusively time-based drying function,
a drying cycle is performed at the end of the wash cycle
that is particularly delicate, thanks to light handling and
appropriate temperature control of the water jet.
The recommended durations are:
1 kg of synthetic garments --> 150 min
1 kg of synthetic and cotton garments --> 180 min
1 kg of cotton garments --> 180 min
The degree of dryness depends on the load and fabric
composition.
Gym Kit: cycle suitable to wash all sports items together,
including gym towels, while respecting their fibres (follow
the instructions in the garment labels).
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and
to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates
continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the
washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load
is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced
spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the
Washer-dryer performs the distribution process instead of
spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and bal-
ance, we recommend small and large garments are mixed
in the load.
