Useful tips about the detergent dispenser
It’s important for a good wash
The first secret is the easiest: the detergent dispenser is opened by pulling it out.
The detergent dispenser can
be removed and cleaned: pull
it outwards, as indicated in the
figure. Then leave it under
warm running water for a few
minutes.

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 PROGRAM ...
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
removal button
If bleaching is necessary, the
extra 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 colored fabrics,
synthetics and for wool.
You cannot bleach with the
“Silk” program.(See page 11).
NOTE: BLEACH ONLY WORKS
WITH HOT WASH TEMP.

You must follow the quantity
recommendations provided by
the manufacturers when
adding detergent or fabric
softener. Quantities will vary
according to the wash load, the
water hardness and how soiled
the clothes are.
Experience will help you select
the right quantity almost
automatically.
Before adding detergent for
pre-washing in compartment
1, make sure that the extra
compartment for bleach 4 has
not been inserted.
Ensure no overfilling when
adding fabric conditioner in
compartment 3.
The washing machine automa-
tically adds the softener to the
wash in each program.
Liquid detergent is poured into
compartment 2 just a few
seconds before starting the
wash cycle.
Remember that liquid
detergent is only designed for
wash cycles of up to 60
degrees on non pre-wash
items.
Special containers are sold
with liquid or powder deter-
gents for placing inside the
washing machine drum, these
are positioned according to the
instructions found in the
detergent box
Never use hand wash deter-
gent, because it may form too
much foam, which could da-
mage the washing machine.
Detergents that are specifically
formulated for both hand and
machine wash are an excep-
tion.
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.
