3. PRACTICAL TIPS

Load tips

WARNING: when sorting laundry, make sure:

-have eliminated metallic objects such as hair clips, pins, coins, from laundry;

-to have buttoned pillow cases, closed zips, tied loose belts and long robe ribbons;

-to have removed rollers, hooks or clips from curtains;

-to have carefully read clothing washing labels;

-to have removed any persistent stains using specific detergents.

!When washing rugs, bedcovers or other heavy clothing, we recommend you avoid the spinning cycle.

!To wash wool, make sure the item can be machine washed and marked by the “Pure virgin wool” symbol with the “Does not mat” or “Machine washable” label.

reduce the necessity of a hot wash programme.

Save up to 50% energy by using a 60°C wash programme.

Before using… a drying programme

!SAVE energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to reduce the water content in laundry before using a drying programme.

Following is a quick guide with tips and recommendations on detergent use at the various temperatures. In any case, always read the instructions on the detergent for correct use and doses.

When washing heavily soiled whites, we recommend using cotton programs of 60°C or above and a normal washing powder (heavy duty) that contains bleaching agents that at medium/high temperatures provide excellent results.

Helpful suggestions for the user

A guide environmentally friendly and economic use of your appliance.

Maximise The Load Size

!Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the recommended maximum load size.

Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.

Do you need to pre-wash?

!For heavily soiled laundry only!

SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.

For washes between 40°C and 60°C the type of detergent used needs to be appropriate for the type of fabric and level of soiling.

Normal powders are suitable for “white” or colour fast fabrics with high soiling, while liquid detergents or “colour protecting” powders are suitable for coloured fabrics with light levels of soiling.

For washing at temperatures below 40°C we recommend the use of liquid detergents or detergents specifically labeled as suitable for low temperature washing.

Is a hot wash required?

!Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water before washing to

10

For washing wool or silk, only use detergents specifically formulated for these fabrics.

4.MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

To clean the washing machine exterior, use a damp cloth, avoiding abrasives, alcohol and/or solvents. To maintain a good wash performance we recommend that the soap drawer and pump filters are regularly cleaned. A monthly service wash, using a proprietary cleaner is also recommended.

!Remove and clean the filter; when finished, replace it turning it clockwise. The filter handle will be locked when it is not possible to turn any further and the handle is horizontal. Smearing a small amount of liquid soap on the filter seal will help refitting.

!Repeat the previous steps in reverse order to reassemble all parts.

EN

Drawer cleaning

!We recommend you clean the drawer to avoid accumulating detergent and additive residue.

!To do this, extract the drawer using slight force, clean it with running water and reinsert it in its housing.

!Ensure the siphon cap is correctly refitted.

Filter cleaning

!The washing machine comes with a special filter able to trap large residue, such as buttons or coins, which could clog the drain.

!Only available on certain models: pull out the corrugated hose, remove the stopper and drain the water into a container.

!Ensure all the water has been emptied from the drum.

!Before unscrewing the filter, we recommend you place an absorbent cloth under it to keep the floor dry. A small amount of water will come out of the filter as you remove it - this is normal.

!Turn the filter counter-clockwise to the limit stop.

Suggestions for moves or prolonged disuse

!Should the washing machine be stored in an unheated room for a long period of time, drain all water from tubes.

!Unplug the washing machine.

!Detach the tube from the drainage system and clip on the rear of the machine and lower it, fully draining water into a bowl.

!Secure the drain tube with the drainage system and clip on the rear of the machine when finished.

!Keep the door glass and gasket clean.

The manufacturers warranty only covers faults within the product of a mechanical or electrical nature. Faults caused by handling, installation or miss use are not covered and may incur a charge for any repair visit to resolve.

Rinse

This program performs 3 rinses with an intermediate spin (which can be reduced or excluded by using the appropriate button) . It is used for rinsing any type of fabric, for example after a wash carried out by hand.

Drain + Spin

The program completes the drain and a maximum spin. It is possible to delete or reduce the spin with the SPIN SPEED button.

Delicates

This program has reduced periods of drum rotation during the cycle and is particularly suitable or washing delicate fabrics. The wash cycle and rinses are carried out with a high level of water to ensure the best performance.

Wool/Silk

This programme allows a delicate washing cycle, particularly suited to garments specified as "Machine-Washable" Wool fabrics and laundry items made from Silk or specified as "Wash as Silk" on the fabric label.

The wool drying cycle of this machine has been approved by "The Woolmark Company" for the drying of machine washable wool products provided that the products are washed and dried according to the instructions on the garment label and those issues by the manufacturer of this machine.

In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade mark is a Certification trade mark.

Mixed (Low Heat)

Low temperature drying programme recommended for synthetics and mixed fibres (always refer to the laundry care label).

DRYING

WARNING:

Dispensers used for concentrated powders and liquid detergents must be removed from the drum before commencing the tumble drying programmes.

Cottons (High Heat)

High temperature drying programme recommended for cottons and linen items (always refer to the laundry care label).

SMART TOUCH

The drum changes direction during the drying cycle to prevent the laundry from tangling and producing even more drying. Cool air is used during the last 10/20 minutes of the drying cycle to minimize creasing.

Dry Wool

Low temperature drying programme, ideal to dry woollen clothes with maximum care and softness, reducing rubbing of fabrics and avoid possible felting. It’s suggested to reverse clothing before drying. Timing is related to the amount of the washing and the spin speed selected for the wash. The cycle is suitable for small loads up to 1 kg (3 sweaters).

Customizable setting of the knob that you have to select when you would like to transfer a command from the App to the machine and to download/start a cycle (see the dedicated section and the user manual of the App for more info). In the Smart Touch option the factory sets as a default the "Auto-Clean" cycle, made to clean the drum, remove bad smells and extend the life of the washing machine. Make sure there is no load in the drum before starting the "Auto-Clean" cycle, use a proprietary washing machine cleaning agent or powder detergent. Leave the door of the machine open at the end of the cycle to allow the drum to dry. Recommended every 50 washes.

7. DRYING CYCLE

The correct way to dry

!Drying guidance advice is general, but practical experience of using the product will help you to achieve the best drying results.

!We recommend setting a lower drying time than indicated, when first using the appliance in order to establish the degree of dryness required.

!We recommend not drying fabrics that fray easily, such as rugs or garments with a deep pile, in order to avoid air duct clogging.

!We recommend that you sort the laundry by the following methods:

-By drying care symbols, which are displayed on the clothing labels

!Open the door.

!Fill with the laundry, not exceeding the maximum drying load indicated in the programme table. For large items (e.g. sheets) or very absorbent items (e.g. towels or jeans), it is a good idea to reduce the load.

!Close the door.

!Turn the programme dial to the more suitable drying programme for your laundry.

!The washer dryer can perform the following types of drying:

-Low temperature drying programme

recommended for wool fabrics

Suitable for tumble drying.

Tumble dry at high temperature.

Tumble dry at low temperature only.

DO NOT tumble dry.

If the fabric does not have a care label, you should assume that it is not suitable for drying.

- By size and thickness

Whenever the wash load is bigger than the drying capacity, separate the clothes according to thickness (e.g. towels from thin underwear).

-By fabric type

Cottons/linen: towels, cotton jersey, bed and table linen.

Synthetics: blouses, shirts, overalls, etc. made of polyester or polyamide, as well as for cotton/synthetic mixes.

!Only dry pre-spun laundry.

The standard manufacturer warranty covers faults caused by electrical or mechanical faults in the product due to an act or omission of the manufacturer. If a fault is found to be caused by factors outside the product supplied, miss-use or as a result of the instructions on use not being followed, a charge may be applied.

28

The use of ecological detergents without phosphates may cause the following effects:

-cloudier rinse drain water: This effect is tied to the suspended zeolites which do not have negative effects on rinse efficiency.

-white powder (zeolites) on laundry at the end of the wash: this is normal, the powder is not absorbed by fabric and does not change its colour.

To remove the zeolites, select a rinse programme. In the future consider using slightly less detergent.

-foam in the water at last rinse: this does not necessary indicate poor rinsing. Consider using less detergent in future washes.

-abundant foam: This is often due to the anionic surfactants found in the detergents which are hard to eliminate from laundry.

In this case, do not re-rinse to eliminate these effects: it will not help at all.

We suggest conducting a maintenance wash using a proprietary cleaner.

If the problem persists or if you suspect a malfunction, immediately contact an Authorised Customer Service Centre.

It is always recommended to use original spare parts, that are available at our Authorised Customer Service Centres.
