Helpful hints and tips
Sorting out the laundry
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.
Removing stains
Stubborn stains may not be removed by just
water and detergent. It is therefore advisable to treat them prior to washing.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For
dried stains, soak overnight in water with a
stain remover product 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.
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a
rust removing product used cold. 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
(white cottons and fast coloureds only).
Remove the laundry from the drum and
carefully check that the drum is empty. If
you do not intend to carry out another
wash, close the water tap. Leave the door
open to prevent the formation of mildew
and unpleasant smells.
Stand by : once the programme has finished after a few minutes the energy saving
system will be enabled. The brightness of
the display is reduced. By pressing any button the appliance will come out of the energy saving status.
Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach
(white cottons and fast coloureds only).
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with ace-

dab the stain.
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above,
then treat stains with methylated spirits.
Treat any residual marks with bleach.
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
tic 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.
Degrees of water hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called
“degrees” of hardness. Information on
hardness of the water in your area can be
obtained from the relevant water supply
company, or from your local authority.

A water softener must be added when water has a medium-high degree of hardness.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The quantity of detergent can then always be
adjusted (reduced) to degree of hardness soft.
