HINTS AND TIPS

You are advised not to leave your laundry too long, especially
when damp. Damp laundry produces moult and unpleasant
smells.
Moult stains cannot be removed.
Sort your laundry.
Study carefully the chart in this booklet explaining the symbols
used on clothes labels (see page 6).
The following points are particularly important :
a line under the bowl means that the garment cannot be washed
using programmes for resistant fabrics such as cotton and
linen;
do not mix coloured garments with whites;
anticrease materials like polyester/cotton should be treated as
synthetics;
non-resistant fabrics like acrylic and most curtain materials
should be treated as delicate fabrics;
the wool programme is designed specifically for pure new wool.
Other types of wool and wool mixtures may shrink or felt if
machine-washed.
Woollen garments should be spun briefly immediately after
washing.
Prewash
Prewash is not normally necessary. Your new washing ma-
chine combined with modern detergents will give perfect
washing results without prewash, thus saving energy, time,
water and detergent.
However, when the laundry is particularly dirty (for instance if
you have to wash mechanics' overalls or butchers' aprons),
you are advised to use prewash with a biological detergent.
lift up the lid of the machine
open the drum with your two
hands by pressing the button A
and the two flapdoors till they

drum ; close the drum and the lid

5. Press the half load pushbutton " " or/and

6. Select the temperature
Choose the temperature which corresponds to the nature of
your laundry and to the degree of humidity wished at the end
of the wash.
7. Select the programme
Choose the programme according to the nature and the degree
of soil of the laundry.
Turn the programme selector clockwise to select the chosen
programme.
8. Starting of the programme
The ON/OFF pushbutton " " enables to switch on your
machine.
9. At the end of the programme
When the selected programme is over, the machine stops
automatically. The timer knob stops on the position "I" for all
the programmes.
If the rinse hold pushbutton " " is selected, the washing
programmes (cotton and synthetics) end by a rinse hold in
order to avoid the formation of creases. You can finish these
programmes by a spin (by releasing the rinse hold pushbutton
" ") or by a drain (by depressing the ON/OFF pushbutton " "
and by choosing the programme15)
After each wash, depress the on/off pushbutton.
Press off the pushbuttons if necessary ; unplug the machine
from the wall socket ; turn off the water tap.
Temperatures
We suggest that white cotton and linen, if it is not excessively
soiled, can be washed at 60° instead of 90°C. There should be
no reduction in performance, but there will be an energy saving
of approximately 30%.
The same applies to a lesser extent to fast coloured garments.
They usually require a temperature of 60°C but if they are not
excessively dirty, you will have satisfactory results at 40°C.
Garments with non-fast colours should not be washed at
temperatures above 40°C. If fast and non-fast colours are
washed together, they should be treated as non-fast colours
and therefore the temperature should not exceed 40°C.
Resistant white and coloured synthetics can normally be
washed at 60°C but also in this case 40°C is sufficient if the
laundry is not excessively dirty.
Delicate synthetics, synthetics with non-fast colours and
woollen garments must never be washed above 40°C.
As you already know, your washing machine can also wash
with cold water. However, it must be remembered that the
detergents currently on the market have not been designed for
cold washes and that in winter, when the water is very cold,
they may not dissolve adequately.
We suggest the use of liquid detergents.
How much laundry can be washed in one load?
Strictly speaking you should always weigh your laundry.
The drum will take a maximum of 5 kg of cotton and linen. For
synthetics and delicate fabrics, the maximum load is 2,5 kg
and for wool, 1 kg.
- 5 -
if required.
