Hints and tips

The laundry load
• Divide the laundry in: white, coloured, syn-
thetics, delicates and wool.
• Obey the washing instructions that are on
the laundry care labels.
• Do not wash together white and coloured
items.
• 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 inside out multilayered fabrics, wool and
items with painted illustrations.
• Remove hard stains.
• Wash with a special detergent heavy soil
stains.
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove the
hooks or put the curtains in a washing bag or
pillowcase.
• 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 prob-
lems with the spin phase. If this occurs, ad-
just manually the items in the tub and start
the spin phase again.

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.

tact your local water authority.
