the relevant buttons.
If possible, do not select a spin
speed lower than that proposed by
the appliance to avoid too long a
drying time therefore saving ener-
gy.
In any case the reduction of the spin

drying.
The lowest values you can select are
the following:
– 900 r.p.m. for cottons and synthetics
and 700 r.p.m. for delicate fabrics
– 900 r.p.m. ( or 1000 r.p.m. depend-
ing on the model) for wool.

rolling and the cooling phase.

FLUFF IN THE FABRICS
During the WASHING AND/OR DRYING
PHASE, certain types of fabric, such as
sponge, wool, sweatshirt, could release
fluff.
The released fluff could stick to the fabrics
during the next cycle.
This drawback increases with technical fab-
rics.
To prevent the fluff in your clothes, it is
recommended:
• To do not wash dark fabrics after you
washed and dried light colored fabrics
(new sponge, wool, sweatshirt especially)
and vice versa.
• To air-dry this type of fabrics when they
are washed the first time.
• To clean the drain filter.
• After the drying phase, thoroughly clean
the empty drum, the gasket and the door
with a wet rag.
To remove the fluff inside the drum, run
a special programme to clean it:
• Empty the drum and clean the drum, the
gasket and the door with a wet rag.
• Turn the programme selector to the rinse
programme.
• Activate the cleaning function by pressing
at the same time button
(9) and but-
ton 6 until the display shows CLE.
•Press button 8 to start the programme.
