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.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and
poppers. Tie up belts.
• Empty pockets and unfold.
• Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and items with
printed illustrations inside out.
• Pre-treat tough stains.
• Wash heavy soil stains with a special detergent.
• Be careful with 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, etc. ).
• 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.
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.
DETERGENTS AND OTHER TREATMENTS
• Only use detergents and other treatments
specially made for washing machines:
– 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.
• Do not mix different types of detergents.
• To help the environment, do not use more than
the recommended quantity of detergent.
• Follow the instructions that you find on
packaging of the detergents or other treatments
without exceeding the indicated maximum level
(
).
• Use the recommended detergents for the type
and colour of the fabric, the programme
temperature and the level of soil.
ECOLOGICAL HINTS
• Set a programme without the prewash phase to
wash laundry with normal soil.
• Always start a washing programme with the
maximum load of laundry allowed.
• If you pre-treat the stains or use a stain remover,
set a programme with a low temperature.
• To use the correct quantity of detergent, check
the water hardness of your domestic system.
Refer to "Water hardness".
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.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
Clean the appliance with mild soap and warm water
only. Fully dry all the surfaces.
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 occasionally.
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
33
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 chapter.
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, in
such a way that there is no need by the customer to
access this area for regular maintenance and
cleaning.
Regularly examine the seal and remove all objects
from the inner part. Coins, buttons, other small
items forgotten in the pockets of your clothes are
deposited during the washing cycle in the special
double lip trap in the porthole seal, where they can
be conveniently recovered at the end of the 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.
Always follow the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
Do not clean the drum with acidic
descaling products, scouring products
containing chlorine or iron or steel
wool.
For a thorough clean:
1. Remove all laundry from the drum.
2. Run the Machine Clean programme. For more
details, refer to washing programme table.
3. Add a small quantity of powder detergent into
the empty drum, in order to rinse out any left
residues.
CLEANING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER

clotted fabric softener and/or formation of mould in
the detergent dispenser drawer, once in a while
carry out the following cleaning procedure:
1. Open the drawer. Press the catch downwards
as indicated in the picture and pull it out.
2. Remove the top part of the additive
compartment to aid cleaning and flush it out
under running warm water, to remove any
traces of accumulated detergent. After
cleaning, put the top part back into position.
3. Make sure that all detergent residue is removed
from the upper and lower part of the recess.
Use a small brush to clean the recess.
4. Insert the detergent drawer into the guide rails
and close it. Run the rinsing programme
34
without any clothes in the drum.
CLEANING THE DRAIN PUMP
