14. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
14.1 The laundry load
Divide the laundry into: white,
coloured, synthetics, delicates and
wool.
Follow the washing instructions on the
laundry care labels.
Do not wash white and coloured items
together.
Some coloured items can discolour
with the first wash. We recommend
that you wash them separately for the
first couple of times.
Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and
items with printed illustrations inside
out.
Pre-treat stubborn stains.
Wash stubborn stains with a special
detergent.
Be careful with curtains. Remove the
hooks and put the curtains in a
washing bag or pillowcase.
A very small load can cause balance
problems with the spin phase leading
to excessive vibration. If this occurs:
a. interrupt the programme and
open the door (refer to "Daily
Use" chapter);
b. manually redistribute the load so
that the items are spaced evenly
around the tub;
c. press the Start/Pause button.
The spin phase continues.
Button up pillowcases, close zippers,
hooks and poppers. Tie up belts,
cords, shoelaces, ribbons and any
other loose elements.
Do not wash laundry without hems or
with cuts. Use a washing bag to wash
small and/or delicate items (e.g.
underwired bras, belts, tights,
shoelaces, ribbons, etc. ).
Empty pockets and unfold the items.
14.2 Stubborn stains
For some stains, water and detergent is
not sufficient.
We recommend that you pre-treat these
stains before you put the items in the
appliance.
Special stain removers are available.
Use the special stain remover that is
applicable to the type of stain and fabric.
Do not spray stain remover on garments
near the appliance as it is corrosive to
the plastic parts.
14.3 Detergent type and
quantity
The choice of detergent and use of
correct quantities not only affects your
wash performance, but also helps to
avoid waste and protect the environment:
ENGLISH 29
Use only detergents and other
treatments specially made for
washing machines. First, follow these
generic rules:
powder detergents (also tablets
and single-dose detergents) for all
types of fabric, excluding delicate.
Prefer powder detergents
containing bleach for whites and
laundry sanitization,
liquid detergents (also single-dose
detergents) , preferably for low
temperature wash programmes
(60 °C max) for all types of fabric,
or special ones for woollens only.
The choice and quantity of detergent
will depend on: type of fabric
(delicates, woollens, cottons, etc), the
colour of clothes, size of the load,
degree of soiling, wash temperature
and hardness of the water used.
Follow the instructions that you find
on packaging of the detergents or
other treatments without exceeding
the indicated maximum level ( ).
Do not mix different types of
detergents.
Use less detergent if:
you are washing a small load,
the laundry is lightly soiled,
there is large amounts of foam
during washing.
When using detergent tabs or pods,
always put them inside the drum, not
in the detergent dispenser and follow
the manufacturer's
recommendations .
Insufficient detergent may cause:
unsatisfactory washing results,
the wash load to turn grey,
greasy clothes,
mould in the appliance.
Excessive detergent may cause:
sudsing,
reduced washing effect,
inadequate rinsing,
a greater impact for the environment.
14.4 Ecological hints
To save water, energy and to help
protect the environment, we recommend
that you follow these tips:
Normally soiled laundry may be
washed without prewash in order to
save detergent, water and time (the
environment is protected too!).
Loading the appliance to the
maximum capacity indicated for
each programmes helps to reduce
energy and water consumption.
With adequate pre-treatment, stains
and limited soiling can be removed;
the laundry can then be washed at a
lower temperature.
To use the correct quantity of
detergent, refer to the quantity
suggested by the detergent producer
and check the water hardness of you
domestic system. Refer to 'Water
hardness'.
Set the maximum possible spin
speed for the selected programme for
saving energy during drying phase!
14.5 Water hardness
If the water hardness in your area is high
or moderate, we recommend that you
use a water softener for washing
machines. In areas where the water
hardness is soft it is not necessary to use
a water softener.
To find out the water hardness in your
area, contact your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of water
softener. Follow the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
14.6 Prepare the drying cycle
Open the water tap.
Check if the drain hose is connected
properly. Refer to installation chapter
for more information.
For the maximum laundry load of the
drying programmes, refer to the
drying programmes table.

14.9 Drying cycle duration
The drying time can change depending
on:
speed of the last spin
dryness level
type of laundry
weight of the load
14.10 Additional drying
If, at the end of the drying programme,
the laundry is still damp, set a short
drying cycle again.
WARNING!
To avoid creasing and
shrinkage do not overdry
the laundry.
14.11 General Tips
Refer to the «Drying programmes» table
to find the average drying times.
Experience will help you to dry the
laundry better. Take note of the duration
of the cycles done before.
To avoid the static charge at the end of
the drying cycle:
1. Use fabric conditioner in the washing
cycle.
2. Use special fabric conditioner for
tumble dryers.
