Saving energy when using your washer dryer o To prevent any possible waste of energy, water or detergent, we recommend that you put a full load in your washer dryer but without exceeding the recommended maximum load size. Up to 50% of energy saving can be made with one full load compared to two half load washes.
Stain removal rules o Use warm water for soaking or pre-washing stained laundry. Hot water can set stains. o Most stains are easier to remove when they are fresh. o Before treating any stain try to establish; what kind of stain it is, how old the stain is, what the fabric type is and whether the fabric is colourfast (check the care label to find this out).

Maintenance and cleaning In daily use o Once a wash cycle has completed, you should pull out the detergent drawer slightly, so it can dry out. o Leave the porthole door ajar for a short while after a wash cycle has completed.
o Use warm water and a brush to thoroughly clean the three compartments of the detergent drawer. o Clean the area that the detergent drawer slides into with a brush. o Replace the detergent drawer by placing it back into the slot. Then push the drawer fully back into position.
Cleaning the filter o The washing machine is fitted with a special filter catching large deposits which could block discharge hose such as coins, buttons etc… so they can be easily retrieved. o Before removing filter, recommended that you place a towel below the filter cap to collect any small amounts of water which are likely to be inside the pump.
