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 contri-
bute 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 deter-
gent or washing additive, as
follows.
! Do not pour detergent into
the middle compartment (*).
Detergent should only be
poured into the compartment
1.
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 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 900-1,200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
Garments requiring special care
Anti-Stain: this programme 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.
If the drying function is selected, a drying cycle automati-
cally activates at the end of the wash cycle that resembles
open-air drying, with the added advantages of preserving
garments from yellowing due to sunlight exposure and pre-
venting loss of whiteness caused by the possible presence

of dust in the air. Drying cycles can only be selected on a
level basis. Dryness level “ ” recommended.
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.
If the drying function is selected, a drying cycle automati-
cally activates at the end of the wash cycle that resembles

Anti Allergy: use programme 7 to remove major aller-
gens such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair.
Wool - Woolmark Apparel Care - Green:
the wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved
by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool gar-
ments 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 (M1318)
In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade mark
is a Certification trade mark.
Delicates: use programme 9 to wash very delicate garments
with decorative features, such as diamantes and sequins.
We recommend turning the garments inside out before
washing and placing small items into the special bag for
washing delicates.
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.
Wash & Dry 45’: select programme 11 for washing and
drying lightly soiled garments (Cotton and Synthetics) 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.
To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent and pre-
treat cuffs, collars and stains.
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 balance, we
recommend small and large garments are mixed in the load.
