Detergents and laundry

Detergent dispenser drawer

Successful washing results also depend on the correct dose
of detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessarily
result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause
build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to
environmental pollution.
! Do not use hand washing detergents because these create
too much foam.
! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for pre-
washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.
! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.
Compartment 1: Do not pour detergent into the middle
compartment 1.
Compartment 2: Washing detergent (powder or liquid)
If liquid detergent is used, it is recommended that the
removable plastic partition A (supplied) be used for proper
dosage. If powder detergent is used, place the partition into
slot B.
Compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener must not exceed the "max" level indicated
on the central pin.

Preparing the laundry

• Divide the laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
• Do not exceed the values listed in the "Table of wash
cycles", which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry.
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1.200 g
1 towel 150-250 g

Special wash cycles

Daily cotton: a 30°C cycle for cotton garments. It allows
for reducing consumption of energy for heating the water,
while guaranteeing excellent results. Suitable for lightly soiled
garments.
Daily synthetics: a 30°C cycle for synthetic garments. It
allows for reducing consumption of energy for heating the
water, while guaranteeing excellent results. Suitable for lightly
soiled garments.
Open the detergent dispenser
d r a w e r a n d p o u r i n t h e
detergent or washing additive,
as follows.
Coloureds: a 30°C cycle that helps to preserve the colours;
suitable for coloured cotton and synthetic garments. It allows
for reducing consumption of energy for heating the water,
while guaranteeing excellent results. Suitable for lightly soiled
garments.
Delicates: use programme 4 to wash very delicate
garments. It is advisable to turn the garments inside out
before washing them. For best results, use liquid detergent
on delicate garments.
Mixed: a 40°C cycle for washing cotton and synthetic
garments together. Suitable for lightly soiled underwear.
Sport --- (programme 11) is designed for washing lightly
soiled sports clothing (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best results,
we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated
in the "Programme table". We recommend using liquid
detergent, and adding the amount suitable for a half-load.
Duvet: to wash single duvets (the weight of which should not
exceed 2 kg), cushions or clothes padded with goose down
such as puffa jackets, use the special wash cycle number 12.
We recommend that duvets are placed in the drum with their
edges folded inwards (see figure) and that no more than ¾
of the total volume of the drum is used. To achieve the best
results, we recommend that a liquid detergent is used and
placed inside the detergent dispenser drawer.
