WASHING AND ECONOMIC USE
YOUR WASHING MACHINE

Wash new coloured garments separately
the first time.
Wash heavily soiled laundry in smaller
amounts, with more detergent or a prewash
cycle.
Treat stubborn stains with a special stain
removal agent before the wash. We
recommend using the "Grandma's advice
for natural stain removal".
With slightly soiled laundry, we recommend
a program without prewash, use of shorter
programs (e.g. Time Care) and a lower
washing temperature.
Frequent, or predominant, washing at low
temperatures, using liquid detergents, may
result in development of bacteria which
causes odour in the washing machine. To
prevent this, we recommend running the
auto-clean (SterilTub) program occasionally
(see section WASHING/ selecting additional
functions).
We recommend avoiding washing very
small amounts of laundry as this will lead
to excessive use of energy and poorer
performance.
Loosen the stacked laundry prior inserting it
into the drum.
Use only detergents for machine wash.
Add the powder or liquid detergents as
instructed by the manufacturer, according
to the washing temperature and selected
washing program.
If water hardness level exceeds 14°dH
degrees, the use of water conditioner is
required. Any damage to the heater due to
failure to use a water conditioning agent
shall not be covered by this warranty.
Check the information on water hardness
with your local water supply company or
authority.
Chlorine-based whitening agents are not
recommended, as it can damage the heater.
Do not add hardened balls of detergent into
the detergent dispenser as this may clog
the piping in the washing machine.
If you use thick liquid softener it is
recommended to dilute it with water, to
prevent clogging of dispenser compartment
ducts.
Liquid detergents are intended for main
wash only, without pre-wash.
High spin RPM leave less moisture in
laundry which dries out much quicker in the
tumble dryer, thereby saving energy.
