Detergents and laundry
Detergent dispenser drawer
Successful 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 environmental 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; they create too
much foam.
Open the detergent
dispenser drawer and pour
in the detergent or washing
additive, as follows.
! Do not pour detergent into
the middle compartment (*).
compartment 1:
Detergent for the wash
cycle (powder or liquid)
If liquid detergent is used,
it is recommended that the removable plastic partition A
(supplied) be used for proper dosage. If powder detergent
is used, place the partition into slot B.
compartment 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
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listedvalues,whichreferto
the weight of the laundry when dry: see “Table of
programmes and wash cycles”.
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1,200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
Special wash cycles
Anti-Stain: the programme 1 is suitable to heavily-soiled
garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing class
that is higher than the standard class (A class). When running
the programme, do not mix garments of different colours. We
recommend the use of powder detergent. Pre-treatment with
special additives is recommended if there are obstinate stains.
Anti Stain Quick: this programme is ideal for washing the
most difficult daily stains in 1 hour. It is ideal for mixed fabrics
and coloured garments, caring for your clothes as it washes.
Steam Refresh: this programme refreshes garments by
removing bad odours and relaxing the fibres (1,5 kg, roughly
3 items). Insert dry items only (that are not dirty) and select
programme 6. The garments will be damp once the cycle is
completed, so we recommend hanging them to dry. The 6
programme makes ironing easier.
! Not recommended for wool or silk garments.
! Do not add softeners or detergents.
Ultradelicates: use programme 7 to wash very delicate
garments having strasses or sequins.
We recommend turning the garments inside out before
washing and placing small items into the special bag
for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate
garments for best results.
Wool - Woolmark Apparel Care - Green:
the wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved
by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool
garments labelled as “hand wash” provided that the
products are washed according to the instructions on the
garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this
washing machine (M1135)
Cotton 20°C: the programme 10 ideal for lightly soiled
cotton loads. The effective performance levels achieved at
cold temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°,
are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at
varying speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.
Baby: use the special wash cycle 11 to remove the remove
the soiling typically caused by babies, while removing all
traces of detergent from nappies in order to prevent the
delicate skin of babies from suffering allergic reactions. The
cycle has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by
using a greater quantity of water and optimising the effect of
special disinfecting additives added to the detergent.
Anti-Allergy: use programme 12 to remove major
allergens such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair.
Silk: use special wash cycle 13 to wash all silk garments.
We recommend the use of special detergent which has
been designed to wash delicate clothes.
Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow case
or mesh bag. Use wash cycle 13.
Duvets: to wash double or single duvets (the weight of
which should not exceed 3,5 kg), cushions or clothes
padded with goose down such as puffa jackets, use
the special 14 wash cycle. We recommend that duvets
are placed in the drum with their edges folded inwards
(see figure) and that no more than ¾ of the total volume
of the drum is used. To achieve the best results, we
recommend that a liquid detergent is used and placed
inside the detergent dispenser drawer.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations
before every spin 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 washing machine performs
the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage
improved load distribution and balance, we recommend
small and large garments are mixed in the load.
