Detergents and laundry
Detergent dispenser drawer
GB
Good 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 envi-
ronmental 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.

compartment 1: Pre-wash detergent (powder)
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle
(powder or liquid)
Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately
prior to the start of the wash cycle.
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
Note: If a "tablet detergent" is used, always follow the
manufacturer's instructions.
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 900-1200 g
1 towel 150-250 g

Mix 30': short cycle designed to wash a mixed load of cotton
and synthetic fabrics - white and coloured items together.
Express 20': this programme refreshes your items, making
them perfumed again in just 20 minutes.
Special wash cycles
Gym Kit: cycle suitable to wash all sports items together,
including gym towels, while respecting their fibres (follow the
instructions in the garment labels).
Sport Shoes: is for washing sports shoes; for best results,
do not wash more than 2 pairs simultaneously.
We recommend fastening any strings before introducing the
shoes into the drum.
Baby: cycle designed for dirt typical of children's garments
in that it effectively removes any traces of residual detergent.
Duvet: to wash single duvets (the weight of which should not
exceed 2.5 kg), cushions or clothes padded with goose down
such as puffa jackets, use the special wash cycle number 12.
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.
Wool: all wool garments can be washed using programme
13, even those carrying the "hand-wash only"
best results, use special detergents and do not exceed 1.5 kg
of laundry.
Silk: use special wash cycle 14 to wash all silk garments.
We recommend the use of special detergent which has been
designed to wash delicate clothes.
Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow case or
mesh bag. Use wash cycle 14.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and
to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates
continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the
washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load
is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced
spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the
washing machine performs the distribution process instead
of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and
balance, we recommend small and large garments are
mixed in the load.
