Hints and tips
- Sort the laundry as follows: white, coloured, synthetics, delicates and wool.
- Follow the washing instructions on the laundry care labels.
- Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and poppers. Tie up belts.
- Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and items with printed illustrations inside out
- Pre-treat tough stains. With adequate pretreatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature. Do not spray stain remover on garments near the appliance as it is corrosive to the plastic parts.
- Wash heavy soil stains with a special detergent.
- Be careful with curtains. Remove the hooks and put the curtains in a washing bag or pillowcase.
- Use a washing bag to wash small and/or delicate items (e.g. underwired bras, belts, tights, etc. ).
- Avoid washing garments full of long animal hair or poor quality garments releasing lots of fluff that could block the drain circuit and therefore requiring the Service assistance.
- Powder detergents for all types of fabric, excluding delicate. Prefer powder detergents containing bleach for whites and laundry sanitization. At temperature higher than 60 °C the use of powder detergent is recommended.
- Liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60 °C max) for all types of fabric, or special ones for woollens only.
- The choice and quantity of detergent will depend on: type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc), the colour of clothes, size of the load, degree of soiling, wash temperature and hardness of the water used.
- Follow the instructions that you find on packaging of the detergents or other treatments without exceeding the indicated maximum level ( max).
- Do not mix different types of detergents.
- Use less detergent if washing a small loads, the laundry is lightly soiled or there is large amounts of foam during washing.
- When using detergent tabs or pods, always put them inside the drum, not in the detergent dispenser.
- Normally soiled laundry may be washed without prewash in order to save detergent, water and time (the environment is protected too!).
- Loading the appliance to the maximum capacity indicated for each programmes helps to reduce energy and water consumption.
- To use the correct quantity of detergent, refer to the quantity suggested by the detergent producer and check the water hardness of you domestic system.
- When you dry the laundry, obey the indications on the labels of the manufacturers.
- The drying time can change depending on speed of the last spin, dryness level, type of laundry, weight of the load.
- If, at the end of the drying programme, the laundry is still damp, set a short drying cycle again.
- To avoid creasing and shrinkage do not over dry the laundry. Refer to the «Drying programmes» table to find the average drying times.
