HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

THE LAUNDRY LOAD
• Divide the laundry in: white, col-
oured, synthetics, delicates and wool.
• To wash correctly, obey the instruc-
tions that are on the laundry care la-
bels.
• Do not wash together white and col-
oured items.
• Some coloured items can discolour in
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.
• Remove hard stains.
• Wash with a special detergent areas
with heavy soil.
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove
the hooks or put the curtains in a
bag.
• Do not wash in the appliance :
– Laundry without hems or with cuts
– Underwired bras.
– Use a washing bag to wash small
items.
• 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.
DETERGENTS AND ADDITIVES
• Only use detergents and additives
specially made for washing machines.
• To help the environment, do not use
more than the correct quantity of de-
tergent.

• Use the correct products for the type
and colour of the fabric, the pro-
gramme temperature and the level of
soil.
• If you use liquid detergents, do not
set the prewash phase.
ECOLOGICAL HINTS
To help the environment, use less water
and energy, obey these instructions:
• Set a programme without prewash
phase to wash laundry with normal
soil.
• Always wash with the maximum load
of the laundry.
• To set a programme with lower tem-
perature, use a stain remover before
to wash.
• To use the correct quantity of the de-
tergent, 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.
To know the water hardness in your
area, contact your local water authority.
Obey the instructions that you find on
the packaging of the products.
Equivalent scales measure the water
hardness:
• German degrees (°dH).
• French degrees (°TH).
• mmol/l (millimol for each litre - inter-
national unit for the hardness of wa-
ter).
• Clarke degrees.
