2. Switch the machine on by turning the se-
lector dial to the set washing programme/
fabric.
3. Select the required options by pressing the
relevant buttons.
If possible, do not select a spin
speed lower than that proposed by
the appliance to avoid too long a drying
time therefore saving energy.
In any case the reduction of the spin speed
is only possible after selecting drying.
The lowest values you can select are 900
r.p.m. for cottons and synthetics and 700
r.p.m. for delicate fabrics.
Fluff in the fabrics
During the WASHING AND/OR DRYING
PHASE, certain types of fabric, such as
sponge, wool, sweatshirt, could release fluff.
The released fluff could stick to the fabrics dur-
ing the next cycle.
This drawback increases with technical fabrics.
To prevent the fluff in your clothes, it is
recommended:
• To do not wash dark fabrics after you wash-
ed and dried light colored fabrics (new
sponge, wool, sweatshirt especially) and vice
versa.
• To air-dry this type of fabrics when they are
washed the first time.

Care and cleaning

Warning! You must DISCONNECT the
appliance from the electricity supply,
before you can carry out any cleaning or
maintenance work.
Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a
good idea to periodically use a water softening
powder in the machine. Do this separately from
any laundry washing, and according to the soft-
ening powder manufacturer's instructions. This
will help to prevent the formation of lime depos-
its.
