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.
•
Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and items with
printed illustrations inside out.
•
Pre-treat stubborn stains.
•
Wash stubborn stains with a special detergent.
•
Be careful with curtains. Remove the hooks and
put the curtains in a washing bag or pillowcase.
•
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.
•
Avoid washing garments full of long animal hair
or poor quality garments releasing lots of fluff
that could block the drain circuit and therefore
requiring the Service assistance.
•
Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and
poppers. Tie up belts, cords, shoelaces, ribbons
and any other loose elements.
•
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,

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.
DETERGENT TYPE AND QUANTITY
The choice of detergent and use of correct
quantities not only affects your wash performance,
but also helps to avoid waste and protect the
environment:
•
Use only detergents and other treatments
specially made for washing machines. First,
follow these generic rules:
– powder detergents for all types of fabric,
excluding delicate. Prefer powder
flashes slowly
