Detergents and laundry

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.

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 Power 20°C: this programme ensures
maximum stain removal capacity with no need for pre-
treatment at low temperatures, preserving fabrics and
colours.
Anti-Stain Turbo 45': this cycle ensures excellent stain
removal capacity even at 20°C in just 45 minutes. The
temperature of this cycle can be increased up to 40°C.
Darks: use cycle 6 to wash dark-coloured garments.
This programme is designed to maintain dark colours over
time. We recommend using a liquid detergent for the best
results when washing dark-coloured garments.
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.

Open the detergent
A
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,
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. (M1127)
Shirts: use the special 10 wash cycle to wash shirts in
different fabrics and colours to guarantee they receive the
best possible care.
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.
Bed & Bath: use programme 13 to wash bed linen
and towels in one single cycle: it optimises softener
performance and helps you save time and energy. We
recommend the use of powder detergent
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.
