As weighing can be complicated, we suggest you estimate the

weight according to how full the drum is:

cotton and linen : drum full not too tighty packed

resistant synthetics : no more than 2/3 of the drum

delicate fabrics and wool : no more than 1/2 of the drum.

Before placing the laundry in the machine:

mend all tears, holes and ladders;

secure loose buttons and close poppers and zips;

do not wash frayed garments - mend hems before washing;

remove all small objects from pockets. Nails, pins, clips and

similar objects can seriously damage your washing machine

and laundry;

remove curtain hooks;

wash coloured garments and in particular those with non-fast

colours separately when washing for the first time. They are

likely to lose colour the first time they are washed.

treat obstinate stains such as grass, rust, tar, paint, ink etc.

with a stain remover before washing.

To remove paint stains, for example, use a volatile substance

such as turpentine: in this case, you should wait for it to dry

completely before washing.

The manufacturer of your washing machine is not responsible

for any damage deriving from the use of volatile, inflammable

or toxic substances.

At the end of the washing

Damp laundry should be dried as soon as possible after

finishing the wash.

Knitwear and woollens should be dried flat away from direct

sunlight.

Detergents and additives

Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent

and use of the correct quantities to avoid waste and protect the

environment. Although biodegradable, detergents contain subs-

tances which in large quantities can damage the delicate

ecological balance of nature.

Always use good quality detergents suitable for use in

washing machines.

Follow the indications given by the detergent manufacturer

according to the weight of laundry, the degree of soil and the

hardness of the water in your area; if you do not know how hard

it is, ask your local Water Authority.

Powder detergents.

The washing powder should be placed in the appropriate

compartments of the dispenser drawer before starting the

programme. Special detergents are availaible for coloured and

delicate fabrics and for wool.

"Concentrated" powder detergents

Pour the concentrated powder detergent into the main wash

( ) compartment.

Avoid selecting programmes including prewash when

concentrated detergents are used.

Liquid detergents

Using the new automatic dispenser for liquid detergents, it is

possible to use a liquid detergent for main wash phases.

Liquid detergents can be used instead of powder detergents

particularly for lightly soiled laundry and for medium or low

temperature washing programmes, while it is better to use a

powder detergent for high temperature washing

programmes.

Liquid additives

Any liquid additives for softening the laundry must be poured

into the compartment of the detergent dispenser drawer

before starting the programme.

The addition of water softener is particularly useful when

drying the clothes in a tumble dryer after washing to avoid a

static charge.

Bleach

You may use a bleach agent in all the washing programmes.

However, make sure that the fabric withstands the treatment.

Bleach is automatically washed down into the drum. Pour

1/4 to 1 glass of 12° chl bleach into compartment " " before

switching the machine on.

Make sure that the level of the liquid never exceeds the grid.
