Helpful hints and tips  
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains,  
soak overnight in water with a special detergent then rub  
in the soap and water.  
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain remover, lay  
the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain; treat several  
times.  
Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the gar-  
ment on a soft surface and dab the stain with the fingertips  
and a cotton cloth.  
Sorting out the laundry  
Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and  
the manufacturer’s washing instructions. Sort the laundry  
as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, wool-  
lens.  
Before loading the laundry  
Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may  
lose their «whiteness» in the wash.  
New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should  
therefore be washed separately the first time.  
Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and  
poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.  
Remove persistent stains before washing.  
Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or  
detergent paste.  
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust removing  
product used cold. Be careful with rust stains which are  
not recent since the cellulose structure will already have  
been damaged and the fabric tends to hole.  
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast  
coloureds only).  
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and fast  
coloureds only).  
Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them  
up in a bag or net.  
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone1), lay the  
garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain.  
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above, then treat stains  
with methylated spirits. Treat any residual marks with  
bleach.  
Removing stains  
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and de-  
tergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them prior to  
washing.  
1) do not use acetone on artificial silk  
10  
 
Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and treat with  
acetic or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any residual marks  
with bleach.  
If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash  
must be selected.  
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which  
allows an optimal use of the concentrated detergent.  
Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on  
quantities to use and do not exceed the «MAX» mark in  
the detergent dispenser drawer.  
Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first  
with acetone1), then with acetic acid; treat any residual  
marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thor-  
oughly.  
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits  
or benzine, then rub with detergent paste.  
Quantity of detergent to be used  
The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type  
of fabric, load size, degree of soiling and hardness of the  
water used.  
Follow the product manufacturers’ instructions on quanti-  
ties to use.  
Use less detergent if:  
• you are washing a small load  
Detergents and additives  
Good washing results also depend on the choice of deter-  
gent and use of the correct quantities to avoid waste and  
protect the environment.  
Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances  
which, in large quantities, can upset the delicate balance  
of nature.  
The choice of detergent will depend on the type of fabric  
(delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.), the colour, washing  
temperature and degree of soiling.  
• the laundry is lightly soiled  
• large amounts of foam form during washing.  
Degrees of water hardness  
All commonly available washing machine detergents may  
be used in this appliance:  
• powder detergents for all types of fabric  
• powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C max) and  
woollens  
• liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash  
programmes (60°C max) for all types of fabric, or spe-  
cial for woollens only.  
Water hardness is classified in so-called “degrees” of  
hardness. Information on hardness of the water in your  
area can be obtained from the relevant water supply com-  
pany, or from your local authority. If the water hardness  
degree is medium or high we suggest you to add a water  
softener following always the manufacturer’s instructions.  
When the degree of hardness is soft, readjust the quantity  
of the detergent.  
The detergent and any additives must be placed in the ap-  
propriate compartments of the dispenser drawer before  
starting the wash programme.  
Drying Hints  
ers, quilts, sleeping bags and duvets must not be ma-  
chine dried.  
• Avoid drying dark clothes with light coloured fluffy  
items such as towels as these can attract the fluff.  
• Remove the laundry when the appliance has finished  
drying.  
• To avoid a static charge when drying is completed, use  
either a fabric softener when you are washing the laun-  
dry or a fabric conditioner specifically for tumble dry-  
ers.  
Preparing the drying cycle  
As a dryer, the appliance works on the condensation prin-  
ciple.  
Therefore, the water tap must be open and the drain hose  
must drain water into a sink or into the drain pipe, even  
during the drying cycle.  
Attention!  
Before starting the drying programme, reduce the loads of  
washed laundry, in order to obtain good performances.  
Laundry not suitable for drying  
• Garments padded with foam-rubber or materials simi-  
lar to foam-rubber must not be machine dried; they  
represent a fire hazard.  
• Particularly delicate items such as synthetic curtains,  
woollen and silk, garments with metal inserts, nylon  
stockings, bulky garments such as anoraks, bed cov-  
11  
 
• Also, fabrics containing residue of setting lotions or  
hair sprays, nail solvents or similar solutions must not  
be machine dried in order to avoid the formation of  
harmful vapours.  
The detergent and any additives must be placed in the ap-  
propriate compartments of the dispenser drawer before  
starting the wash programme.  
If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash  
must be selected.  
Your appliance incorporates a re-circulation system which  
allows an optimal use of the concentrated detergent.  
Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on  
quantities to use and do not exceed the «MAX» mark in  
the detergent dispenser drawer.  
= Do not tumble dry.  
Drying cycle duration  
The drying time may vary depending on:  
• speed of the final spin  
• dryness degree required (iron dry, store dry)  
• type of laundry  
• weight of the load size .  
The average drying time for a timed drying are indicated in  
the «Drying programmes» chapter. The experience will  
help you to dry your laundry in a more suitable way, ac-  
cording to the different fabrics. Take note of the duration  
drying time of the already performed cycles.  
Additional drying  
If the laundry is still damp at the end of the drying pro-  
gramme, select a short drying cycle again.  
Garment labels  
For drying, follow the indications given on the manufac-  
turer’s labels:  
Warning! Do not over dry the laundry in order to  
avoid creasing of fabrics or garment’s shrinking.

Fluff in the garments  
During the WASHING AND/OR DRYING PHASE, certain  
types of fabric, as sponge-cloth, sweatshirt, could release  
fluff.  
The released fluff could stick to the fabrics during the next  
cycle.  
This drawback increases with technical fabrics.  
To prevent the lint in your clothes, it is recommended:  
• To do not wash dark fabrics after you washed and dried  
light colored fabrics (new sponge, sweatshirt especial-  
ly) and vice versa.  
Care and cleaning

Problem  
Possible cause/Solution  
Too much detergent or unsuitable detergent (creates too much foam) has been  
used.  
• Reduce the detergent quantity or use another one.  
Check whether there are any leaks from one of the inlet hose fittings. It is not  
always easy to see this as the water runs down the hose; check to see if it is  
damp.  
There is water on the floor:  
• Check the water inlet hose connection.  
The drain or inlet hose is damaged.  
• Replace it with a new one.  
The filter has not been properly screwed in after cleaning action.  
• Screw the filter fully in.  
Too little detergent or unsuitable detergent has been used.  
• Increase the detergent quantity or use another one.  
Stubborn stains have not been treated prior to washing.

The machine vibrates is noisy:  
• Redistribute the laundry.  
Maybe there is very little laundry in the drum.  
• Load more laundry.  
21  
 
Problem  
Possible cause/Solution  
The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the laundry is  
not evenly distributed in the drum. The laundry is redistributed by reverse rota-  
tion of the drum. This may happen several times before the unbalance disap-  
pears and normal spinning can resume. If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is still  
not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case, re-  
distribute the load manually and select the spin programme.  
Spinning starts late or the machine  
does not spin:  
• Redistribute the laundry.  
The load is too small.  
• Add more items, redistribute the load manually and then select the spinning  
programme.  
The machine is fitted with a type of motor which makes an unusual noise com-  
pared with other traditional motors. This new motor ensures a softer start and  
more even distribution of the laundry in the drum when spinning, as well as  
increased stability of the machine.  
The machine makes an unusual  
noise:  
Machines based on modern technology operate very economically using very  
little water without affecting performance.  
No water is visible in the drum:  
The machine does not dry or does  
not dry properly:  
The drying time or the dryness degree has not been selected.  
• Select the drying time or the dryness degree.  
The water tap is not turned on.  
• Open the water tap.  
The drain filter is clogged.  
• Clean the drain filter.  
The machine is overloaded.  
• Reduce the laundry load in the drum.  
The selected drying programme, time or dryness degree was not suitable for  
the laundry.  
• Select the suitable drying programme, time or dryness degree for the laun-  
dry.  
The laundry is full of different col-  
ored fluff:  
The fabrics washed in the previous cycle released fluff of a different color (refer  
to “Fluff in the garments” in chapter “Use - Washing & Drying”).  
• The drying phase helps to eliminate some fluff.  
• Clean the clothes with a fluff remover.  
In case of an excessive amount of fluff in the drum repeat the following proce-  
dure twice:  
• Thoroughly clean the empty drum, the gasket and the door with a wet rag.  
• Perform a rinse cycle.  
• Put a wool or piled fabric rag inside the drum.  
• Perform a drying cycle of 10 minutes.  
• Remove the old wool cloth.  
Now you can wash other garments.

Ecological hints  
To save water, energy and to help protect the environment,  
we recommend that you follow these tips:  
• Normally soiled laundry may be washed without pre-  
washing in order to save detergent, water and time (the  
environment is protected too!).  
• The machine works more economically if it is fully loa-  
ded.  
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited soiling  
can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a  
lower temperature.  
Packaging materials  
• Measure out detergent according to the water hard-  
ness, the degree of soiling and the quantity of laundry  
being washed.  
The materials marked with the symbol  
>PE<=polyethylene  
>PS<=polystyrene  
are recyclable.
