Good 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 a
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.
! Do not pour detergent into
the middle compartment (*).
compartment 1: Deter-
gent for the wash cycle
(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 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.

Special wash cycles
Anti-Stain Power 20°C: this programme ensures ma-
ximum stain removal capacity with no need for pre-treat-
ment at low temperatures, preserving fabrics and colours.
Anti-Stain Turbo 45’: this cycle ensures excellent stain
removal capacity even at 20°C in just 45 minutes. The tem-
perature of this cycle can be increased up to 40°C.
Ultra Delicates: use programme 7 to wash very delicate
garments having strasses or sequins.
We recommend turning the garments inside out before
washing and placing small items into the special bag for
washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate gar-
ments for best results.
Wool - Woolmark Apparel Care - Green:
the wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved
by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool gar-
ments labelled as “hand wash” provided that the products
are washed according to the instructions on the garment
label and those issued by the manufacturer of this washing
machine (M1135)
Shirts: use the special 9 wash cycle to wash shirts in
different fabrics and colours to guarantee they receive the
best possible care.
Baby: use the special wash cycle 10 to remove the
remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while
removing all traces of detergent from nappies in order to
prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergic
reactions. The cycle has been designed to reduce the
amount of bacteria by using a greater quantity of water
and optimising the effect of special disinfecting additives
added to the detergent.
Anti-Allergy: use programme 11 to remove major aller-
gens such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair.
Bed & Bath 7 days: use programme 12 to wash bed
linen and towels in one single cycle: it optimises softener
performance and helps you save time and energy. We
recommend the use of powder detergent
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.
Duvets: to wash double or single duvets (the weight of
which should not exceed 3,5 kg), cushions or clothes
padded with goose down such as puffa jackets, use the
special 14 wash cycle. 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 recom-
mend that a liquid detergent is used and placed inside
the detergent dispenser drawer.
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.
