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.

Open the detergent

dispenser 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

compartment 4 has been removed.

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

Extra compartment 4: Bleach

Bleach cycle

Insert the additional compartment 4 (provided) into

compartment 1. In pouring the bleach do not exceed the

“max” level indicated on the central pin.

Perform bleaching by pouring the bleach into additional

compartment 4 and set the programme

! Traditional bleach should be used on resistant white

fabrics, and delicate bleach for coloured and synthetics

fabrics and for wool.

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

Sport (programme 1) is designed for washing lightly soiled

sports clothing (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best results, we

recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated

in the “Table of wash cycles” We recommend using liquid

detergent, and adding the amount suitable for a half-load.

Dark: use programme 2 to wash dark-coloured garments.

This programme is designed to maintain dark colours over

time. We recommend using a liquid detergent for the best

results when washing dark-coloured garments.

Anti-odour: use programme 3 for washing garments

with bad odours (e.g. smoke, sweat, fried food). The

programme is designed to remove bad odours while

preserving the fabric fibres. Synthetics fabrics or mixed

loads should be washed at 40°, and resistant cotton

fabrics at 60°.

Delicate: 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.

Wool: the wool wash cycle of this machine has been

approved by The Woolmark Company for the washing of

wool garments 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. (M1126)

In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade mark

is a Certification trade mark.

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

programme number 6. 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.

Coloured: use this programme 11 to wash bright

coloured clothes. The programme is designed to maintain

bright colours over time.
