12. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
12.1 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 Inicio/Pausa button. The
spin phase continues.
• 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

etc. ).
• Empty pockets and unfold the items.
12.2 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.
12.3 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:
