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.

!
Do not pour detergent into the compartment 1. Deter-
gent should only be poured into the compartment 2.
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.
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
Special wash cycles
Cotton Standard (programme 7) ideal for heavily soiled
cotton loads. The effective performance levels achieved
at cold temperatures, which are comparable to washing
at 40°, are guaranteed by a mechanical action which
operates at varying speed, with repeated and frequent
peaks.
Wool: all wool garments can be washed using programme 8,
even those carrying the "hand-wash only"
results, use special detergents and do not exceed
1,5 kg of laundry.
Jeans: Turn garments inside-out before washing and use
a liquid detergent. Use programme 9.

label. For best
Express 15': this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly
soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes and therefore
saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle
(10 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together
(except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of
1,5 kg.
Outwear (wash cycle 11): is studied for washing water-re-
pellent fabrics and winter jackets (e.g. Gore-Tex, polyester,
nylon); for best results, use a liquid detergent and dosage
suitable for a half-load; pre-treat necks, cuffs and stains if
necessary; do not use softeners or detergents containing
softeners. Stuffed duvets cannot be washed with this
programme.
Sport Intensive (programma 12): is for washing heavily
soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for
best results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum
load indicated in the "Programme table".
Sport Light (programma 13): is for washing lightly soiled
sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best
results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load
indicated in the "Programme table". We recommend using
a liquid detergent and dosage suitable for a half-load.
Special Shoes (programma 14): is for washing sports
shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs
simultaneously.
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.
