Hints and tips

The laundry load
• Divide the laundry in: white, coloured,
synthetics, delicates and wool.
• Obey the washing instructions that are 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 times.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks
and poppers. Tie up belts.
• Empty the pockets and unfold the items.
• Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and items
with painted illustrations inside out.
• Remove hard stains with a special detergent.
• Wash and pre-treat heavy soil stains before
putting items 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, etc. ).
• A very small load can cause balance
problems with the spin phase. If this occurs,
adjust manually the items in the tub and start
the spin phase again.
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 additives
• Only use detergents and additives specially
made for washing machines:
– powder detergents for all types of fabric,
– powder detergents for delicate fabrics
(40 °C max) and woollens,
– liquid detergents, preferably for low
temperature wash programmes (60 °C
max) for all types of fabric, or special for
woollens only.
• Do not mix different types of detergents.
• To help the environment, do not use more
than the correct quantity of detergent.
• Obey the instructions that you find on the on
packaging of these products.
• Use the correct products for the type and
colour of the fabric, the programme
temperature and the level of soil.
• If your appliance does not have the
detergent dispenser with the flap device,
add the liquid detergents with a dosing ball
(supplied by the detergent's manufacturer).

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.
• If necessary, use a stain remover when you
set a programme with a low temperature.
• To use the correct quantity of the detergent,
check the water hardness of your domestic
system
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.
