You must add detergent and any
additives following the dosage
recommended by the
manufacturers: generally, all the
indications you need are on the
box. Doses vary according to
wash load, the water hardness
and how soiled the washing is.
Experience will help you select
the right dosage almost
automatically: it will become
your secret.
Before pouring in the detergent
for pre-washing in compartment
1, make sure that the extra
compartment for bleach 4 has
not been inserted.
When pouring in the softener in
compartment 3, avoid making it
overflow from the grate.
The washer-dryer automatically
adds the softener to the wash in
each programme.
In compartment 1:
Detergent for pre-washing (powder)
In compartment 2:
Detergent for washing
(powder or liquid)
In compartment 3:
Additives (softeners, perfumes, etc.)
In compartment 4:
Bleach and delicate bleach.
The secrets of the detergent dispenser
Its important for a good wash
The first secret is the easiest: the detergent
dispenser is opened by rotating it outwards.
Liquid detergent is to be poured
into compartment 2 only a few
seconds before starting the wash
cycle.
Remember that liquid detergent
is particularly indicated for wash
cycles of up to 60 degrees on non
pre-wash items, so you will not
have to use button I.
Liquid or powder detergents are
sold together with special
containers that are to be placed
directly inside the washer-dryer
drum, according to the
instructions found on the
detergent box.
Never use hand wash detergent,
because it may form too much
foam, which could damage the
washer-dryer.
Detergents that are specifically
indicated for both hand and
machine wash are an exception.
One last secret: when washing
with cold water, always reduce
the amount of detergent you use:
it dissolves less easily in cold
water than in hot water, so part
of it would be wasted.
Cutting costs efficiently
A guide to
environmentally
friendly and economic
use of your appliance.
MAXIMISE THE LOAD SIZE
Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the
recommended maximum load size.
SAVE up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.
DO YOU NEED TO PRE-WASH?
For heavily soiled laundry only!
SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by
NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.
IS A HOT WASH REQUIRED?
Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water before
washing to reduce the necessity of a hot wash programme.
SAVE up to 50% energy by using a 60°C wash programme.
BEFORE USING A DRYING PROGRAMME ...
SAVE energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to reduce the water
content in laundry before using a drying programme.
Bleach cycle and stain remover
button
If bleaching is necessary, the ex-
tra case 4 (provided) must be
inserted into compartment 1 of
the detergent dispenser.
When pouring in the bleach, be
careful not to exceed the "max"
level indicated on the central
pivot (see illustration).
The use of the additional bleach
container excludes the
possibility of using the pre-wash
cycle. Traditional bleach can
only be used on sturdy white
fabrics, whereas delicate
bleach can be used for
coloured fabrics, synthetics
and for wool.
You cannot bleach with the Silk
programme and with the special
programmes (see page 4).
Use the stain removal button
every time you want to bleach.
Should you want to do it
separately you must pour the
bleach into the additional
container 4, press button H
(stain removal), start the washer-
dryer, then select one of the
symbols according to the
type of fabric.
When you bleach during a
normal wash cycle, pour the
detergent and any additives in
the special compartments, press
button H (stain removal), set the
programme you desire and turn
the washer-dryer on.
The detergent dispenser can be
removed and cleaned: just lift it up
and pull it outwards ,as indicated in
the figure. Then leave it under running
water for a few minutes.
