1) According to UK Ecodesign for Energy-Related Products and Energy Information Regulations and to
the EU Ecodesign Regulation 2019/2023 and the EU Energy Label Regulation 2019/2014, this pro-
gramme at 40 °C is able to clean normally soiled cotton laundry declared to be washable at 40 °C or 60
°C, together in the same cycle.
For the reached temperature in the laundry, the programme duration and other data, please
refer to 'Consumption Values' chapter.
The most efficient programmes in terms of energy consumption are generally those that per-
form at lower temperatures and longer duration.
2) To reduce creasing, this cycle regulates the water temperature and performs a soft wash and spin
phase. The appliance adds some rinses.
3) During this cycle the drum rotates slowly to ensure a gentle wash. It can seem that the drum doesn't
rotate or doesn't rotate properly, but this is normal for this programme.

HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
THE LAUNDRY LOAD
• Divide the laundry into: white, coloured,
synthetics, delicates and wool.
• Follow the washing instructions on the laundry
care labels.
• Do not wash white and coloured items together.
• Some coloured items can discolour with the first
wash. We recommend that you wash them
separately for the first couple of times.
• Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and items with
printed illustrations inside out.
• Pre-treat stubborn stains.
• Wash stubborn stains with a special detergent.
• Be careful with curtains. Remove the hooks and
put the curtains in a washing bag or pillowcase.
• A very small load can cause balance problems
with the spin phase leading to excessive
vibration. If this occurs:
a. interrupt the programme and open the
door (refer to "Daily Use" chapter);
b. manually redistribute the load so that the
items are spaced evenly around the tub;
c. press the Start/Pause button. The spin
phase continues.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and
poppers. Tie up belts, cords, shoelaces, ribbons
and any other loose elements.
• Do not wash laundry without hems or with cuts.
Use a washing bag to wash small and/or
delicate items (e.g. underwired bras, belts,
tights, shoelaces, ribbons, etc. ).
• Empty pockets and unfold the items.
STUBBORN STAINS
For some stains, water and detergent is not
sufficient.
We recommend that you pre-treat these stains
before you put the items in the appliance.
Special stain removers are available. Use the
special stain remover that is applicable to the type
of stain and fabric.
28
Do not spray stain remover on garments near the
appliance as it is corrosive to the plastic parts.
DETERGENT TYPE AND QUANTITY
The choice of detergent and use of correct
quantities not only affects your wash performance,
but also helps to avoid waste and protect the
environment:
• Use only detergents and other treatments
specially made for washing machines. First,
follow these generic rules:
– powder detergents (also tablets and single-
dose detergents) for all types of fabric,
excluding delicate. Prefer powder
detergents containing bleach for whites and
laundry sanitization,
– liquid detergents (also single-dose
detergents) , preferably for low temperature
wash programmes (60 °C max) for all types
of fabric, or special ones for woollens only.
• The choice and quantity of detergent will
depend on: type of fabric (delicates, woollens,
cottons, etc), the colour of clothes, size of the
load, degree of soiling, wash temperature and
hardness of the water used.
• Follow the instructions that you find on
packaging of the detergents or other treatments
without exceeding the indicated maximum level
( ).
• Do not mix different types of detergents.
• Use less detergent if:
– you are washing a small load,
– the laundry is lightly soiled,
– there is large amounts of foam during
washing.
• When using detergent tabs or pods, always put
them inside the drum, not in the detergent
dispenser and follow the manufacturer's
recommendations .
Insufficient detergent may cause:
• unsatisfactory washing results,
• the wash load to turn grey,
• greasy clothes,
• mould in the appliance.
Excessive detergent may cause:
• sudsing,
• reduced washing effect,
• inadequate rinsing,
• a greater impact for the environment.
ECOLOGICAL HINTS
To save water, energy and to help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow these
tips:
• Normally soiled laundry may be washed
without prewash in order to save detergent,
water and time (the environment is protected
too!).
• Loading the appliance to the maximum
capacity indicated for each programmes
helps to reduce energy and water
consumption.
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited
soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be
washed at a lower temperature.
• To use the correct quantity of detergent, refer to
the quantity suggested by the detergent
producer and check the water hardness of you
domestic system. Refer to 'Water hardness'.
• Set the maximum possible spin speed for
the selected washing programme before
drying your laundry in a tumble dryer. This
will save energy during drying!
WATER HARDNESS
If the water hardness in your area is high or
moderate, we recommend that you use a water
softener for washing machines. In areas where the
water hardness is soft it is not necessary to use a
water softener.
To find out the water hardness in your area, contact
your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of water softener. Follow
the instructions that you find on the packaging of
the product.
CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
PERIODIC CLEANING SCHEDULE
Periodic cleaning helps to extend the life of
your appliance.
29
After each cycle, keep the door and the detergent
dispenser slightly ajar to get air circulation and dry
the humidity inside the appliance: this will prevent
mildew and odours.
If the appliance is not used for a long time: close
the water tap and unplug the appliance.
Indicative periodic cleaning schedule:
Descaling Twice a year
Maintenance wash Once a month
Clean door seal Every two months
Clean drum Every two months
Clean detergent dis-
penser

Clean drain pump fil-
ter
Twice a year
Clean the inlet hose
and the valve filter
Twice a year
The following paragraphs explain how you should
clean each part.
REMOVING FOREIGN OBJECTS
Make sure that pockets are empty and
all loose elements are tied up before
running your cycle. Refer to "The
laundry load" in "Hints and tips".
Remove any foreign objects (such as metal clip,
buttons, coins, etc) that you may find in the door
seal, the filters and the drum. Refer to "Door seal
with double lip trap", "Cleaning the drum",
"Cleaning the drain pump" and "Cleaning the inlet
hose and the valve filter" paragraphs. If necessary,
please contact the Authorised Service Centre.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
Clean the appliance with mild soap and warm water
only. Fully dry all the surfaces. Do not use a
scouring pads or any scratching material.
CAUTION! Do not use alcohol,
solvents or chemical products.
CAUTION! Do not clean the metal
surfaces with chlorine-based
detergent.
DESCALING
If the water hardness in your area is
high or moderate, we recommend that
you use a water descaling product for
washing machines.
Regularly examine the drum to check for limescale.
Regular detergents already contain water softening
agents, but we recommend to run a cycle with an
empty drum and a descaling product.
Always follow the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
MAINTENANCE WASH
The repeated and prolonged use of low
temperature programmes can cause detergent
deposits, fluff residues, bacterial growth inside the
drum and the tub. This could generate bad odours
and mildew. To eliminate these deposits and clean
the inner part of the appliance, run a maintenance
wash regularly (at least once a month).
Refer to "Cleaning the drum"
paragraph.
DOOR SEAL WITH DOUBLE LIP TRAP
This appliance is designed with a self cleaning
draining system, allowing light fluff fibers that fall
off the clothes to be drained out with the water.
Regularly examine the seal. Coins, buttons, other
small items can be recovered at the end of the
cycle.
Clean it when needed, using ammonia cream
cleanser agent without scratching the seal surface.
Always obey the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
Check and remove objects (if there are any) that
could be trapped in the fold.
Make sure that no laundry remains between the
seal and the door.
30
Use a moist cloth to wipe off any dirt or water
residue left behind in the door seal after completion
of program cycle.
CLEANING THE DRUM
Regularly examine the drum to prevent unwanted
deposits.
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due to rusting
foreign body in the washing or tap water containing
iron
Clean the drum with special products for stainless
steel.
