Detergents and laundry

Detergent dispenser drawer

Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of

detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessa-

rily result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause

build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to

environmental pollution.

! 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.

! Do not use hand washing detergents because these

create too much foam.

Open the detergent di-

spenser drawer and pour

in the detergent or washing

additive, as follows.

compartment 1: Pre-wash detergent (powder)

Before pouring in the detergent, make sure that extra com-

partment 4 has been removed.

compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle

(powder or liquid)

Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately

prior to the start of the wash cycle.

compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)

The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.

extra compartment 4: Bleach

Bleach cycle

Bleaching may only be performed in conjunction with wash

cycle 8.

Pour the bleach into extra compartment 4; pour the deter-

gent and softener into the corresponding compartments,

then select one of the abovementioned wash cycles.

This option is recommended only for very soiled cotton

garments.

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 listed values, which refer to the

weight of the laundry when dry: see “Table of wash

cycles”.

How much does your laundry weigh?

1 sheet 400-500 g

1 pillow case 150-200 g

1 tablecloth 400-500 g

1 bathrobe 900-1200 g

1 towel 150-250 g

Garments requiring special care

Shirts: use special wash cycle 11 to wash shirts in various

fabrics and colours.

It guarantees maximum care is taken of the garments and

minimises the formation of creases.

Silk: use special wash cycle 12 to wash all silk garments.

We recommend the use of special detergent which has

been designed to wash delicate clothes.

Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow case or

mesh bag. Use wash cycle 12.

Wool: the wool wash cycle on this Hotpoint-Ariston

machine has been tested and approved by The Woolmark

Company for washing wool garments labelled as hand wa-

shable provided that the garments are washed according

to the instructions on the garment label and those issued

by the manufacturer of this washing machine. Hotpoint-

Ariston is the first washing machine brand to be approved

by The Woolmark Company for Apparel Care- Platinum for

its washing performance and consumption of energy and

water. (M1126)

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and

to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates

continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the

washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load

is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced

spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the

washing machine performs the distribution process instead

of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and

balance, we recommend small and large garments are

mixed in the load.
