Detergents and laundry
Detergent dispenser
Good washing results also depend on the correct dose of
detergent: adding too much detergent won’t necessarily
make for a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause
build up on the interior of your appliance and even pollute
the environment.
! 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.
Open up the detergent
dispenser and pour in
the detergent and fabric
softener, as follows.
compartment 1: Pre-wash detergent (powder)
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.
Note: If a “tablet detergent” is used, always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
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 items
Gym Kit: cycle suitable to wash all sports items together,
including gym towels, while respecting their fibres (follow
the instructions in the garment labels).
Baby: cycle designed for dirt typical of children’s garments
in that it effectively removes any traces of residual detergent.
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 11. 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.
Wool: all wool garments can be washed using programme
12, even those carrying the “hand-wash only” label. For
best results, use special detergents and do not exceed 1,5
kg of laundry.
Silk: use special wash cycle 13 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 13.
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 at-
tempts, 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 distribu-
tion process instead of spinning. To encourage improved
load distribution and balance, we recommend small and
large garments are mixed in the load.
