Useful advice for users

Tips on using your domestic appliance in the most environmentally-friendly and economical way

Do a full load in your washing machine

To prevent any possible waste of energy, water or detergent we recommend that you put a full load in your washing machine, not exceed the maximum loads shown below: Cotton and linen 5 kg Mixed 2 kg Very delicate 1,5 kg Wool 1 kg Up to 50% energy saving can be made with one full load compared to two half load washes

When is prewashing really needed?

Only with particularly dirty loads! Energy savings of 5 to 15% are made by not selecting the prewash option for normal soiled laundry.

Which wash temperature should you choose?

Using stain removers before machine washing reduces the need to wash at temperatures over 60°C. Energy savings of up to 50% can be made by using a 60°C wash temperature rather than 90°C

WASH TEMPERATURE selector

Can be turned in either direction

This washing machine is equipped with this device for setting the wash temperature you want. We recommend that the temperature shown on the label inside garments should never be exceeded. The most suitable temperature and cycle for each type of fabric is shown in the programme guide. To protect fabrics, if the variable temperature dial has accidentally been set too high than stated in the programme guide, the machine will lower the temperature automatically .

PROGRAMME Selector

Note: never turn the dial anti-clockwise (Turn it clockwise and do not press the on/off button before selecting the programme.)

The tables in the washing section describe the various programmes and give the number or symbol to select for them.

SUPER RINSE button

Pressing this button causes more water to be added at the rinse stage. This is particularly important for avoiding skin irritation from detergent residues for people with particularly sensitive skin. The super rinse button is also recommended when washing heavily soiled fabrics, requiring the use of a lot of detergent, or when washing items made of towelling, whose fibres have a greater tendency to retain detergent.

NO SPIN BUTTON

By pressing this button it is possible to eliminate the spin-drying on all programmes. This operation is suitable for programmes at 90°C and at 60°C in case of special treated fabrics (cottonova or permanent press) or for mixed delicate fabrics.

HALF LOAD BUTTON

When washing a small load select the half load button to save on water, electricity and detergent. When this option is selected less water is introduced during the wash and rinse cycles.

WARNING: NEVER press the half load button when washing PURE NEW WOOL, since wool absorbs water and therefore needs all the water the machine will hold. DO NOT use it for delicate fabrics either, since they need the extra water to float them and protect them.

Detergent drawer

The detergent draw is split into 4 compartments:

- the first, labelled "I", is for prewash detergent or for 32 minute rapid programme detergent

- the second, labelled "II", is for main wash detergent

If liquid detergents are used, please insert the special container supplied into the compartment marked “II” in the detergent drawer. This ensures that the liquid detergent enters the drum at the right stage of the wash cycle.

Note: some detergents are difficult to remove. For these, we recommend you use the special dispenser which is placed in the drum.

- the third, labelled " ", is for bleaching agents. The machine is programmed to automatically take up the bleach during the first rinse in cotton cycles.

Note: only put liquid products in the third and fourth compartments.

- the fourth, labelled " " is for special additives, fabric softeners, fragrances, starch, brighteners etc.

The machine is programmed to automatically take up additives during the final rinse stage for all wash cycles.

Programme selector

For the various types of fabrics and various degrees of dirt the washing machine has 2 different programme bands according to: wash cycle, temperature and lenght of cycle (see table of washing cycle programmes).

1 Resistants Fabrics

The programmes have been designed for a maximum wash and the rinses, with spin intervals, ensure perfect rinsing. The final spin gives more efficient removal of water.

2 Mixed and Delicates Fabrics

The main wash and the rinse gives best results thanks to the rotation rhythms of the drum and to the water levels. A gentle spin will mean that the fabrics become less creased.

The machine will stop with the water still in the drum after rinsing.

The programme for mixed and very delicate fabrics can be concluded by selecting:

- discharge only or

- delicate spin The delicate spin programme is particularly suitable for knitwear.
