WASHING HINTS6.

Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer’s washing instructions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens.

6.1 Sorting The Laundry

6.2 Temperatures

90°C

60°C 50°C 40°C

30°C Cold

For normally soiled, colourfast garments (e.g. shirts, night dresses,

pyjamas....) in linen, cotton

or synthetic fibres and for lightly soiled white cotton (e.g.underwear).

For delicate items (e.g. net curtains), mixed laundry including synthetic fibres and woollens bearing the label pure new wool, machine washable, non-shrink.

For normally soiled white cottons and linen (e.g. teacloths, towels, tablecloths, sheets...).

Never wash whites and coloureds together. Whites may lose their “whiteness” in the wash.

New coloured items may run in the first wash; they should therefore be washed separately the first time.

Button up pillowcases, close zip fasteners, hooks and poppers. Tie any belts or long tapes.

Remove persistent stains before washing.

Rub particularly soiled areas with a special detergent or detergent paste. Treat curtains with special care. Remove hooks or tie them up in a bag or a net.

Make sure that no metal objects are left in the laundry (e.g. hair clips, safety pins, pins).

6.3 Before Loading The Laundry

Recommended loads are indicated in the program charts. General rules:

Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient use of water and energy. For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size.

Cotton, linen:

drum full but not too tightly packed;

Synthetics:

drum no more than half full;

Delicate fabrics and woollens:

drum no more than one third full.

6.4 Maximum Loads

Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For dried stains, soak overnight in water with a special detergent then rub in the soap and water.

Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain; treat several times.

Dried grease stains: moisten with turpentine, lay the garment on a soft surface and dab the stain with the fingertips and a cotton cloth.

Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and detergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them prior to washing.

6.5 Removing Stains

ENGLISH 19

Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot

water or a rust removing product used in cold water. Be careful with rust stains which are not recent since the cellulose structure will already have been damaged and the fabric tends to hole.

Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast coloureds only).

Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and fast coloureds only).

Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone (*), lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain.

Lipstick: moisten with acetone (*) as above, then treat stains with methylated spirits. Remove any residual marks from white fabrics with bleach.

The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the dispenser drawer before starting the wash program.

Red wine: soak in water and detergent, rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid, then rinse. Treat any residual marks with bleach.

Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first with acetone (*), then with acetic acid; treat any residual marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thoroughly.

Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with detergent paste.

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.

Only low suds Front load washer detergents should be used in this appliance:

(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk.

6.6 Detergents and Additives

powder detergents for all types of fabric,

powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60 °C max) and woollens,

liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash program (60 °C max) for all types of fabric, or special for woollens only.

If using concentrated powder or liquid detergents, a program without PREWASH must be selected.

Pour liquid detergent into the dispenser drawer compartment marked ‘ ’ just before starting the program.

reduced washing effect,

Any fabric softener or starching additives must be poured into the compartment marked ‘ ’ before starting the wash program.

Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on quantities to use and do not exceed the MAX mark in the detergent dispenser drawer.

The type and quantity of detergent will depend on the type of fabric, load size, degree of soiling and hardness of the water used.

Do not spray stain pre-treatment products (e.g. Preen) on or near the machine, as it can attack plastic materials reducing its life.

Information on hardness of the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from your local authority.

Follow the product manufacturers’ instructions on quantities to use.

Water hardness is classified in so-called “degrees” of hardness.

CARE AND CLEANING8.

You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out any cleaning or maintenance work.

The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the machine.

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

Do not use alcohol, solvents or chemical products.

Do this separately from any laundry washing, and according to the softening powder manufacturer's instructions.

This will help to prevent the formation of lime deposits.

8.2 Descaling

8.1 External Cleaning

The washing powder and additive dispenser drawer should be cleaned regularly.

Remove the drawer by pressing the catch downwards and by pulling it out. Flush it out under a tap, to remove any traces of accumulated powder.

8.5 Cleaning The Dispenser Drawer

Leave the door open for a while. This helps to prevent mould and stagnant smells forming inside the appliance. Keeping the door open after a wash will also help to preserve the door seal.

8.3 After Each Wash

With the use of low temperature washes it is possible to get a build up of residues inside the drum.

We recommend that a maintenance wash be performed on a regular basis.

8.4 Maintenance Wash

The drum should be empty of laundry.

Select the hottest “Regular” wash program.

Use a normal measure of detergent, must be a powder with biological properties.

To run a maintenance wash:

1. Turn the drum and align the filter cover (FILTER) with the arrow on the door seal.

WARNING!

Drain filter collects lint and other items left in the dirty laundry to prevent pump blockage

The pump must be cleaned regularly. To clean the filter, proceed as follows:

To aid cleaning, the top part of the additive compartment should be removed.

Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is removed from the upper and lower part of the recess. Replace the drawer and run the rinse program without any clothes in the drum.

8.6 Cleaning The Drawer Recess

Malfunction Possible cause Solution

The electronic unbalance detection device has cut in because the laundry is not evenly distributed in the drum.

The laundry is redistributed by reverse rotation of the drum.

This may happen several times before the unbalance disappears and normal spinning can resume. If, after 10 minutes, the laundry is still not evenly distributed in the drum, the machine will not spin. In this case, redistribute the load manually and select the spin program.

Machine not installed properly. Make sure the levelling of

the appliance is correct. Refer to ‘Installation’.

Transit bolts or packaging not removed.

The load may be too small.

Make sure that the packaging and/or the transit bolts are removed. Refer to ‘Installation’.
