13. HINTS AND TIPS

WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
13.1 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
illuminates. The door is
4. Close the water tap.
12.4 Fluff in the fabrics
During the washing and/or drying phase,
some types of fabric, (sponge, wool,
sweatshirt) could release fluff.
The released fluff could stick to the
fabrics during the next cycle.
To prevent the fluff in your laundry, we
recommend that you:
• Do not wash dark fabrics after you
have washed and dried light coloured
fabrics (new sponge, wool,
sweatshirt ) and the contrary.
• Line dry this type of fabrics at open air
when they are washed the first time.
• Clean the drain filter.
• After the drying phase, clean the
empty drum, the gasket and the door
with a wet cloth.
• 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.
13.2 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.
13.3 Detergents and additives
• Only use detergents and additives
specially made for washing machines:
