PREPARATION OF THE WASHING

1.Sort the laundry according to...
• Type of fabric / care label symbol
Cottons, mixed fibres, easy care/synthetics, wool,
handwash items.
• Colour
Separate coloured and white items. Wash new
coloured articles separately.
• Loading
Wash items of different sizes in the same load to
improve washing efficiency and distribution in the drum.
• Delicates
Wash small items (e.g. nylon stockings, belts etc.)
and items with hooks (e.g. bras) in a cloth bag or
pillow case with zip. Always remove curtain rings or
wash curtains with the rings inside a cotton bag.
2.Empty all pockets
Coins, safety pins etc. can damage your laundry as
well as the appliance drum and tub.
3.Fasteners
Close zips and fasten buttons or hooks; loose belts
or ribbons should be tied together.

DETERGENTS AND ADDITIVES

The choice of detergent depends on:
• type of fabric (cottons, easy care/synthetics, delicate
items, wool).
Note: Use only specific detergents for washing wool
• colour
• the wash temperature
• degree and type of soiling
Remarks:
Any whitish residues on dark fabrics are caused by
insoluble compounds used in modern phosphate-free
powder detergents. If this occurs, shake or brush out
the fabric or use liquid detergents.
Use only detergents and additives specifically
produced for domestic washing machines.
When using descaling agents, dyes or bleaches for the
pre-wash, make sure that they are suitable for use in
domestic washing machines. Descalers could contain
products which could damage your washing machine.
Do not use any solvents (e.g. turpentine, benzine). Do
not machine wash fabrics that have been treated with
solvents or flammable liquids.

Stain removal
• Blood, milk, eggs etc. are generally removed by the
automatic enzyme phase of the programme.
• To remove red wine, coffee, tea, grass and fruit
stains etc. add a stain remover to the main wash
chamber
of the detergent dispenser.
• Pre-treat heavily-soiled areas with stain remover if
necessary.
Dyeing
• Only use dyes that are suitable for washing machines.
• Follow the Manufacturer's instructions.
• Plastic and rubber parts of the washing machine can
be stained by dyes.
Loading the laundry
1. Open the door.
2. Load the articles one at a time loosely into the
drum, without overfilling. Observe the load sizes
given in the quick reference guide.
Note: overloading the machine will result in
unsatisfactory washing results and creased laundry
3. Close the door.
Dosage
Follow the dosage recommendations on the detergent
pack. They depend on:
• degree and type of soiling
• size of wash
follow the detergent manufacturer's instructions for
a full load;
half load: 3/4 the amount used for a full load;
Minimum load (about 1 kg):
1/2 the amount used for a full load
• water hardness in your area (ask for information
from your water company). Soft water requires less
detergent than hard water (refer to the water
hardness table in the operating instructions).
Notes:
Too much detergent can result in excess foam
formation, which reduces washing efficiency.
If the washing machine detects too much foam, it may
prevent spinning.
Insufficient detergent may result in grey laundry in time
and also calcifies the heating system, drum and hoses.
