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.
!
Do not use hand washing detergents because these
create too much foam.
!
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.

Special wash cycles

Jeans: turn the garments inside out before washing and
use liquid detergent. Use wash cycle 6.
Shirts: use special wash cycle 7 to wash shirts in various
fabrics and colours.
It guarantees maximum care is taken of the garments and
minimises the formation of creases.
Mix-Cool 30': this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly
soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 30 minutes and therefore
saves both energy and time. By selecting wash cycle 8, it is
possible to wash different fabrics (except for wool and silk
items) using a cold cycle, up to a maximum load of 3 kg.
Wool: wash cycle 9 can be used to wash all woollen
garments in the machine, even those carrying the "hand wash
only" label. To achieve the best results, use a special
detergent and do not exceed the maximum load of 2 kg.
Silk: use special wash cycle 10 to wash all silk garments.
We recommend the use of special detergent which has been
designed to wash delicate clothes.
Curtains: we recommend you fold the curtains and place
them in a pillow case or mesh bag. Use wash cycle 10.
Duvets: to wash double or single duvets (the weight of which
should not exceed 3 kg), cushions or clothes padded with
goose down such as puffa jackets, use the special wash cycle
number 11 "Duvets". 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.
Outwear (wash cycle 12): is studied for washing water-
repellent fabrics and winter jackets (e.g. Gore-Tex, polyester,
nylon); for best results, use a liquid detergent and dosage
suitable for a half-load; pre-treat necks, cuffs and stains if
necessary; do not use softeners or detergents containing
softeners. Stuffed duvets cannot be washed with this
programme.
Sport Shoes (wash cycle 13): is for washing sports
shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs
simultaneously.
