In order to realize water and energy savings and
to act in an environmentally conscious manner,
we advice to follow the below instructions :
Washing motor : in case of mechanic
overloading, overvoltage, a thermic safety
protects automatically the motor.
Use if possible the appliance with full loads
instead of partial loads. Take care to do not
overload the drum.
Heating : the heating can only begin when
the water quantity necessary for the washing
is in the tub. This safety is useful when there is
a water break-up or if you forget to open the
water inlet hose.
Useonlytheprogrammeswithprewashforvery

HINTS AND TIPS
Resistant white and coloured synthetics can
Washing hints
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.
Youareadvisednottoleaveyourlaundrytoolong,
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 14).
The following points are particularly important :
- a line under the bowl means that the garment
cannotbewashedusingprogrammesforresistant
fabrics such as cotton and linen;
We suggest the use of liquid detergents.
- 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.
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.
As weighing can be complicated, we suggest you
estimatetheweightaccordingtohowfullthedrum
is:
Prewash
Prewash is not normally necessary. Your new
washing machine combined with modern
detergentswillgiveperfectwashingresultswithout
prewash, thus saving energy, time, water and
detergent.
cotton and linen : drum full not too tighty packed
resistant synthetics : no more than 2/3 of the
drum
delicate fabrics and wool : no more than 1/2 of
the drum.
However, whenthelaundryisparticularlydirty(for
example if you have to wash mechanics' overalls
or butchers' aprons), you are advised to use
prewash with a biological detergent.
Before placing the laundry in the
machine:
- mend all tears, holes and ladders;
- secure loose buttons and close poppers and
zips;
- do not wash frayed garments - mend hems
before washing;
- remove all small objects from pockets. Nails,
pins,clipsandsimilarobjectscanseriouslydamage
your washing machine and laundry;
- remove curtain hooks;
- wash coloured garments and in particular those
withnon-fastcoloursseparatelywhenwashingfor
the first time. They are likely to lose colour the first
time they are washed.
- treat obstinate stains such as grass, rust, tar,
paint,inketc.withastainremoverbeforewashing.
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 perfor-
mance, but there will be an energy saving of
approximately 30%.
Thesameappliestoalesserextenttofastcoloured
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-fastcoloursarewashedtogether,theyshould
be treated as non-fast colours and therefore the
temperature should not exceed 40°C.

To remove paint stains, for example, use a volatile
substance such as turpentine: in this case, you
shouldwaitforittodrycompletelybeforewashing.
The manufacturer of your washing machine is not
responsible for any damage deriving from the use
of volatile, inflammable or toxic substances.
Liquid detergents
Using the new automatic dispenser for liquid
detergents, it is possible to use a liquid detergent
for main wash phases if you start the washing
machine immediately.
Liquid detergents can be used instead of powder
detergents particularly for lightly soiled laundry
and for medium or low temperature washing pro-
grammes, while it is better to use a powder
detergent for high temperature washing
programmes.
At the end of the washing
Damplaundryshouldbedriedassoonaspossible
after finishing the wash.
Knitwear and woollens should be dried flat away
from direct sunlight.
Liquid additives
Any liquid additives for softening the laundry must
bepouredintothecompartment ofthedetergent
dispenser drawer before starting the programme.
Theadditionofwatersoftenerisparticularlyuseful
when drying the clothes in a tumble dryer after
washing to avoid a static charge.
Detergents and additives
Good washing results also depend on the choice
of detergent and use of the correct quantities to
avoidwasteandprotecttheenvironment.Although
biodegradable, detergents contain substances
which in large quantities can damage the delicate
ecological balance of nature.
Makesurethattheleveloftheliquidneverexceeds
the MAX level.
Always use good quality detergents suitable
for use in washing machines.
Bleach
You may use a bleach agent in cotton program-
mes. However, make sure that the fabric
withstands the treatment. Bleach is automatically
washed down into the drum. Pour 1/4 to 1 glass of
12° chl bleach into compartment " " before
switching the machine on.
Follow the indications given by the detergent
manufacturer according to the weight of laundry,
the degree of soil and the hardness of the water in
your area; if you do not know how hard it is, ask
your local Water Authority.
Makesurethattheleveloftheliquidneverexceeds

Powder detergents.
The washing powder should be placed in the
appropriatecompartmentsofthedispenserdrawer
beforestartingtheprogramme.Specialdetergents
are availaible for coloured and delicate fabrics
and for wool.

The water should drain freely and, consequently,
the drain hose should not be choked or placed in
such a way as to obstruct the normal water flow. If
an extension hose is required, remember that it
might cause a malfunction in the drain pump,
particularly if the extension has a length in excess
of 1 meter or if the diameter of the extension is
smaller than the diameter of the original drain
hose.
