Steam can be used for dried, washed or worn once laundry. These programmes can reduce creases and odours and make your laundry more smooth. Do not use any detergent. If necessary, remove stains by washing or using localized stain removal. Steam programmes do not perform any hygienic cycle.

If you set a Steam programme with dried laundry, at the end of the cycle the laundry feels humid. It is better to expose clothes to the fresh air for about 10 minutes to let the humidity dry. Laundry should be removed from the drum as quick as possible. After a steam cycle, clothes may to be ironed anyway, but with less effort!

HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

THE LAUNDRY LOAD

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

• Obey the washing instructions that are on the laundry care labels.

• Do not wash together white and coloured items.

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

• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and poppers. Tie up belts.

• Empty the pockets and unfold the items.

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

• Remove hard stains.

• Wash with a special detergent heavy soil stains.

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

• Do not wash in the appliance : – Laundry without hems or with cuts – Underwired bras. – Use a washing bag to wash small

items.

• A very small load can cause balance problems with the spin phase. If this occurs, adjust manually the items in the tub and start the spin phase again.

STUBBORN STAINS

For some stains, water and detergent is not sufficient. We recommend that you remove 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.

DETERGENTS AND ADDITIVES

• Only use detergents and additives specially made for washing machines.

• Do not mix different types of detergents.

• To help the environment, do not use more than the correct quantity of detergent.

• Obey the instructions that you find on the on packaging of these products.

• Use the correct products for the type and colour of the fabric, the programme temperature and the level of soil.

• If you use liquid detergents, do not set the prewash phase.

• If your appliance has not the detergent dispenser with the flap device, add the liquid detergents with a dosing ball.

ECOLOGICAL HINTS

To help the environment, use less water and energy, obey these instructions:

• Set a programme without the prewash phase to wash laundry with normal soil.

• Always start a washing programme with the maximum load of laundry.

• If necessary, use a stain remover when you set a programme with a low temperature.

• To use the correct quantity of the detergent, check the water hardness of your domestic system

WATER HARDNESS

If the water hardness in your area is high or moderate, we recommend that you use a water softener for washing machines. In areas where the water hardness is soft it is not necessary to use a water softener. To know the water hardness in your area, contact your local water authority. Obey the instructions that you find on the packaging of the products. Equivalent scales measure the water hardness:

• German degrees (°dH).

• French degrees (°TH).

• mmol/l (millimol for each litre - international unit for the hardness of water).

• Clarke degrees.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

DESCALING

The water we use contains limescale. If it becomes necessary, use a water softener to remove limescales. Use a special product made for washing machines. Obey the instructions that you find on the packaging of the manufacturer. Do this separately from the laundry wash.

EXTERNAL CLEANING

Clean the appliance only with soap and warm water. Fully dry all the surfaces.

DETERGENT DISPENSER

To clean the dispenser:

CAUTION!

MAINTENANCE WASH

With the low temperature programmes it is possible that some detergent stays in the drum. Make regularly a maintenance wash. To do this:

• Empty the laundry from the drum.

• Set the hottest cotton wash programme

• Use a correct quantity of powder detergent with biological properties.

After each wash, keep the door open for a while to prevent mould and to let unpleasant smells go out.

Remove the detergent dispenser and disconnect the two parts.

Clean all the parts with water.

Assemble the two parts of the detergent dispenser.

Put back the detergent dispenser.

DRAIN FILTER
