Detergents and laundry

Detergent dispenser drawer

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.

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 because these create

too much foam.

! Do not put the detergent into compartment 1.

! The detergent must be put only in 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.

Note: If a "tablet detergent" is used, always follow the ma-

nufacturer'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

Special wash cycles

Wash&Dry 90': The cycle guarantees the washing and

drying performances for a 2 kg load in 90 minutes (level "

" Iron dry); for larger loads, the cycle's duration increases in

order to guarantee the cycle performances.

Wash&Dry 45' select programme 5 for washing and drying

lightly soiled garments (Cotton and Synthetic) in a short time.

This cycle may be used to wash and dry a laundry load of

up to 1 kg in just 45 minutes (level "

AirFresh 30' (programme 6) ideal cycle to refresh garments

and remove bad odours, in particular smoke, from cotton and

synthetic items in 30' (max 1.5kg) without the washing phase.

Wool: all wool garments can be washed using programme

best results, use special detergents and do not exceed 1,5

kg of laundry.

Delicate: use programme 8 to wash very delicate garments.

It is advisable to turn the garments inside out before washing

them. For best results, use liquid detergent on delicate

garments.

When selecting an exclusively time-based drying function, a

drying cycle is performed at the end of the wash cycle that is

particularly delicate, thanks to light handling and appropriate

temperature control of the water jet.

The recommended durations are:

1 kg of synthetic and cotton garments --> 180 min

1 kg of cotton garments --> 180 min

The degree of dryness depends on the load and fabric

composition.

Gym Kit: cycle suitable to wash all sports items together,

including gym towels, while respecting their fibres (follow the

instructions in the garment labels).

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 Washer-

dryer 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.
