DETERGENTS AND ADDITIVES

Good washing results also depend on the

choice of detergent 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.

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 tem-

perature wash programmes (60°C max)

for all types of fabric, or special for wool-

lens only.

The detergent and any additives must be

placed in the appropriate 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 recirculation

system which allows an optimal use of the

concentrated detergent.

Follow the product manufacturer’s recom-

mendations on quantities to use and do

not exceed the «MAX» mark in the de-

tergent dispenser drawer.

DEGREES OF WATER HARDNESS

Water hardness is classified in so-called

“degrees” of hardness. Information on hard-

ness of the water in your area can be ob-

tained from the relevant water supply com-

pany, or from your local authority.

A water softener must be added when

water has a medium-high degree of

hardness (from degree of hardness II).

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

The quantity of detergent can then al-

ways be adjusted to degree of hard-

ness I (= soft).

DRYING HINTS

PREPARING THE DRYING CYCLE

As a dryer, the appliance works on the con-

densation principle.

Therefore, the water tap must be open

and the drain hose must drain water in-

to a sink or into the drain pipe, even

during the drying cycle.

Attention!

Before starting the drying programme, re-

duce the loads of washed laundry, in order

to obtain good performances.

LAUNDRY NOT SUITABLE FOR

DRYING

• Particularly delicate items such as syn-

thetic curtains, woollen and silk, gar-

ments with metal inserts, nylon stock-

ings, bulky garments such as anoraks,

bed covers, quilts, sleeping bags and du-

vets must not be machine dried.

• Avoid drying dark clothes with light col-

oured fluffy items such as towels as

these can attract the fluff.

• Remove the laundry when the appliance

has finished drying.
