Detergents and laundry
Detergent dispenser drawer
GB
Successful 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 environmental pollution.
! 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 use hand washing detergents; they create too
much foam.

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 listed values, which refer to the
weight of the laundry when dry:
see "Table of programmes and wash cycles".
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1,200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
Special wash cycles
Anti Stain: the programme 1 is suitable to heavily-soiled
garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing
class that is higher than the standard class (A class). When
running the programme, do not mix garments of different
colours. We recommend the use of powder detergent.
Pre-treatment with special additives is recommended if
there are obstinate stains.
Whites: use this cycle 2 to wash white clothes. The
programme is designed to maintain the brightness of white
clothes over time. Use powder detergent for best results.

Open the detergent
A
dispenser drawer and pour
in the detergent or washing
additive, as follows.
compartment 1: Pre-
wash detergent (powder)
Before pouring in the
detergent, make sure that
extra compartment 4 has
been removed.
Anti allergy: use programme 6 to remove major allergens
such as pollen, mites, cat's and dog's hair.
Baby: use the special wash cycle 7 to remove the remove
the soiling typically caused by babies, while removing all
traces of detergent from nappies in order to prevent the
delicate skin of babies from suffering allergic reactions. The
cycle has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by
using a greater quantity of water and optimising the effect of
special disinfecting additives added to the detergent.
Wool: the wool wash cycle on this Hotpoint-Ariston
machine has been tested and approved by The Woolmark
Company for washing wool garments labelled as hand
washable provided that the garments are washed
according to the instructions on the garment label and
those issued by the manufacturer of this washing machine.
Hotpoint-Ariston is the first washing machine brand to be
approved by The Woolmark Company for Apparel Care-
Platinum for its washing performance and consumption of
energy and water. (M1127)
Delicates: use programme 9 to wash very delicate
garments having strasses or sequins.
To wash silk garments and curtains select the cycle 9 and
set the "Delicate" level from option
We recommend turning the garments inside out before
washing and placing small items into the special bag
for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate
garments for best results.
Eco cycles
The Eco Cycles assure energy saving by eliminating the
need of heating water and it's an advantage both to your
energy bill and the environment! These innovative Eco
programmes (Eco Cottons 12, Eco Synthetics 13 and Eco
Fast 30' 14) are available for various fabrics and different
quantity of garment; they have been designed to guarantee
a high cleaning action even at low temperature and can be
used for lightly to medium soiled loads. Eco Cycles give
the best results thanks to an intensified wash action, water
optimization and are carried out in the same average time
of a standard cycle. For the best washing results with Eco
Cycles we recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.
Cotton Standard 20° 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.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations
before every spin 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.
