Helpful hints and tips
Sorting out the laundry
Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and
the manufacturer's washing instructions. Sort the laundry
as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, wool-
lens.
Temperatures
for normally soiled white cottons
95° or 90°
and linen (e.g. tea cloths, towels, ta-
blecloths, sheets...)
for normally soiled, colour fast gar-
ments (e.g. shirts, night dresses,
60°/50°
pyjamas....) in linen, cotton or syn-
thetic fibres and for lightly soiled
white cotton (e.g. underwear)
for delicate items (e.g. net curtains),
mixed laundry including synthetic
40°-30°- Cold
fibres and woollens bearing the la-
bel «pure new wool, machine wash-
able, non-shrink»
Before loading the laundry
Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may
lose their «whiteness» in the wash.
New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should
therefore be washed separately the first time.
Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry
(e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins).
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and
poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.
Remove persistent stains before washing.
Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or
detergent paste.
Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them
up in a bag or net.
When the pilot light E goes out, the door can be opened
and the laundry can be removed.
At the end of the cycle, turn the programme selector dial
to
to switch the machine off.
Remove the laundry from the drum and carefully check
that the drum is empty. If you do not intend to carry out
another wash, close the water tap.
Leave the door open to prevent the formation of mildew
and unpleasant smells.
Maximum loads
Recommended loads are indicated in the washing pro-
gramme charts.
General rules:
• Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly packed;
• Synthetics: drum no more than half full;
• Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no more than one
third full.
Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient use of
water and energy.
For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size.

Removing stains
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and de-
tergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them prior to
washing.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains,
soak overnight in water with a special detergent then rub
in the soap and water.
