• Wash and pre-treat heavy soil stains with a
suitable detergent before putting in drum.
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove the hooks
and put the curtains in a washing bag or
pillowcase.
• 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. ).
• A very small load can cause balance problems
with the spin phase leading to excessive
vibration. If this occurs:
- interrupt the programme and open the door
(refer to "Daily Use" chapter);
-manually redistribute the load so that the items
are spaced evenly around the tub;
-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.
• Empty the 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.
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 for all types of fabric,
excluding delicate. Prefer powder
detergents containing bleach for whites and
laundry sanitization,
– liquid 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.
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.
