HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Sorting out the laundry
Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer’s washing in-
structions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.
Before loading the laundry
Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may lose their «whiteness» in the wash.
New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should therefore be washed separately
the first time.
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.
Remove persistent stains before washing.
Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or detergent paste.
Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag or net.
Removing stains
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and detergent. It is therefore advisable
to treat them prior to washing.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains, soak overnight in water with a
special detergent then rub in the soap and water.
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and
dab the stain; treat several times.
Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the garment on a soft surface and dab
the stain with the fingertips and a cotton cloth.

Helpful hints and tips
21
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust removing product used cold. Be careful
with rust stains which are not recent since the cellulose structure will already have been
damaged and the fabric tends to hole.
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast coloureds only).
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and fast coloureds only).
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone1), lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab
the stain.
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above, then treat stains with methylated spirits. Treat any
residual marks with bleach.
Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid, then rinse.
Treat any residual marks with bleach.
Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first with acetone1), then with acetic
acid; treat any residual marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thoroughly.
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with deter-
gent paste.
Detergents and additives
Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent and use of the correct quan-
tities to avoid waste and protect the environment.
Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which, in large quantities, can up-
set the delicate balance of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on the type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.),
the colour, washing temperature and degree of soiling.
All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance:
• powder detergents for all types of fabric
• powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C max) and woollens
• liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60°C max) for all
types of fabric, or special for woollens only.
The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the
dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected.
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which allows an optimal use of the con-
centrated detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on quantities to use and do not ex-
ceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent dispenser drawer.
Quantity of detergent to be used
The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree of
soiling and hardness of the water used.
Follow the product manufacturers’ instructions on quantities to use.
Use less detergent if:
• you are washing a small load
• the laundry is lightly soiled
• large amounts of foam form during washing.
1) do not use acetone on artificial silk

Care and cleaning
Degrees of water hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called “degrees” of hardness. Information on hardness of
the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from
your local authority. If the water hardness degree is medium or high we suggest you to add
a water softener following always the manufacturer’s instructions. When the degree of
hardness is soft, readjust the quantity of the detergent.
CARE AND CLEANING
You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out
any cleaning or maintenance work.
Descaling
The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use a water soft-
ening powder in the machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing, and according
to the softening powder manufacturer's instructions. This will help to prevent the forma-
tion of lime deposits.
After each wash
Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent mould and stagnant smells forming
inside the appliance. Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to preserve the door
seal.
Maintenance wash
With the use of low temperature washes it is possible to get a build up of residues inside
the drum.
We recommend that a maintenance wash be performed on a regular basis.
To run a maintenance wash:
• The drum should be empty of laundry.
• Select the hottest cotton wash programme.
• Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a powder with biological properties.
External cleaning
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap and water only, and then dry thor-
oughly.
Do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products to clean the cabinet.
Detergent dispenser drawer
The detergent dispenser drawer should be cleaned regularly.

Care and cleaning
23
1. To aid cleaning, the top part of the addi-
tive compartment should be removed. Re-
move the detergent dispenser drawer by
pressing the catch downwards and by
pulling it out.
2. Flush it out under a tap, to remove any
traces of accumulated powder.
3. Having removed the drawer, use a small
brush to clean the recess, ensuring that all
washing powder residue is removed from
the upper and lower part of the recess.
4. Replace the drawer and run the rinse pro-
gramme without any clothes in the drum.
Washing drum
Rust deposits in the drum may occur due to rusting foreign bodies in the washing or tap
water containing iron.
Do not clean the drum with acidic descaling agents, scouring agents containing chlorine or
iron or steel wool.
1. Remove any rust deposits on the drum with a cleaning agent for stainless steel.
2. Run a washing cycle without any washing to clean off any cleaning agent residues.
Programme: Short Cotton Programme at maximum temperature and add approx. 1/4
measuring cup of detergent.

What to do if…
Problem
Possible cause/Solution
The transit bolts and packing have not been re-
moved.
• Check the correct installation of the appli-
ance.
The support feet have not been adjusted
The machine vibrates or is noisy:
• Check the correct levelling of the appliance.
The laundry is not evenly distributed in the
drum.
• Redistribute the laundry.
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.
• Load more laundry.
The electronic unbalance detection device has
cut in because the laundry is not evenly distrib-
uted in the drum. The laundry is redistributed
by reverse rotation of the drum. This may hap-
pen several times before the unbalance disap-
pears and normal spinning can resume. If, after
some minutes, the laundry is still not evenly
distributed in the drum, the machine will not
spin.
Spinning starts late or the machine does not
spin:
• The laundry load is perhaps to little, add
more items, redistribute the load manually
and then select the spinning programme.
The machine is fitted with a type of motor
which makes an unusual noise compared with
other traditional motors. This new motor en-
sures a softer start and more even distribution
of the laundry in the drum when spinning, as
well as increased stability of the machine.
The machine makes an unusual noise:
No water is visible in the drum:
Machines based on modern technology operate
very economically using very little water with-
out affecting performance.
