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 during 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 washed 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.
• To clean the drain filter.
• After the drying phase, thoroughly clean the empty drum, the gasket and the door with a
wet rag.
To remove the fluff inside the drum, run a special programme to clean it:
• Empty the drum and clean the drum, the gasket and the door with a wet rag.
• Turn the programme selector to the rinse programme.
• Activate the cleaning function by pressing at the same time button 10 and button 5
until the display shows CLE.
• Press button 7 to start the programme.
