The factory pre-set doses for a large load are 90 ml for detergent tank and 25 ml for fabric softener tank: the optimal conﬁguration to meet majority of use condition. Based on this setting, the appliance will calculate the precise dosage for each wash.

However, under extreme conditions (very soft or very hard water) and particular type of detergent (such as super compact), we recommend to adjust the pre-set dosage by following the indication given on detergent and fabric softener container: e.g when using super compact detergent you may need to reduce the pre-set dosage considerably.

If the washing results are not satisfying or there is too much foam during washing, you may need to change the factory setting. Read in the paragraph 'AutoDose conﬁguration mode' how to change the basic setting, but before:

1. Identify the water hardness level.

Check the water hardness level in your area. The levels are generally indicated as: soft, medium and hard. If necessary, please contact your local water authority to check the water hardness in your area.

2. Identify the customized detergent dosage.

Check the label in the detergent/ fabric softener container suggesting the quantity to use. This suggestion is measured combining three different factors:

• Water hardness level (see the

following table);

• Normal soil level;

• Rated capacity of the appliance

(e.g. maximum load capacity 9 kg). If the rated capacity on the product container refers to lower capacity appliances, the customized dosage should be increased.

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

13.1 The laundry load

• Divide the laundry into: white, coloured, synthetics, delicates and wool.

• Follow the washing instructions on the laundry care labels.

• Do not wash white and coloured items together.

• Some coloured items can discolour with the ﬁrst wash. We recommend that you wash them separately for the ﬁrst couple of times.

• Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and items with printed illustrations inside out.

• Pre-treat tough stains.

• Wash stubborn stains with a special detergent.

• Be careful with curtains. Remove the hooks and put the curtains in a washing bag or pillowcase.

• Do not wash laundry without hems or with cuts. Use a washing bag to wash small and/or delicate items (e.g. underwired bras, belts, tights, shoelaces, ribbons, etc. ).

• A very small load can cause balance problems with the spin phase leading to excessive vibration. If this occurs:

a. interrupt the programme and

open the door (refer to "Daily Use" chapter);

b. manually redistribute the load so

that the items are spaced evenly around the tub;

c. press the Start/Pause button. The

spin phase continues.

• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and poppers. Tie up belts, cords, shoelaces, ribbons and any other loose elements.

• Empty pockets and unfold the items.

13.2 Stubborn stains

For some stains, water and detergent is not sufﬁcient.

We recommend that you pre-treat these stains before you put the items in the appliance.

Special stain removers are available. Use the special stain remover that is applicable to the type of stain and fabric.

13.3 Detergent type and quantity

The choice of detergent and use of correct quantities not only affects your wash performance, but also helps to avoid waste and protect the environment:

• Use only detergents and other treatments specially made for washing machines. First, follow these generic rules:

– powder detergents for all types of

fabric, excluding delicate. Prefer powder detergents containing bleach for whites and laundry sanitization,

– 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 (

• Do not mix different types of detergents.

• Use less detergent if:

– you are washing a small load, – the laundry is lightly soiled, – 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.

Insufﬁcient detergent may cause:

• unsatisfactory washing results,

• the wash load to turn grey,

• greasy clothes,

• mould in the appliance.

Excessive detergent may cause:
