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.

Helpful hints and tips

Temperatures

95° or 90°

for normally soiled white cottons and linen (e.g. tea cloths, towels,

tablecloths, sheets...)

60°/50°

for normally soiled, colour fast garments (e.g. shirts, night dresses,

pyjamas....) in linen, cotton or synthetic fibres and for lightly soiled

white cotton (e.g. underwear)

40°30° Cold

for delicate items (e.g. net curtains), mixed laundry including syn

thetic fibres and woollens bearing the label «pure new wool, ma

chine washable, non-shrink»

Before loading the laundry

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.

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

pins).

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 net.

Maximum loads

Recommended loads are indicated in the washing programme charts.

General rules:

•

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.

Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient use of water and energy.

For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size.

Laundry weights

The following weights are indicative:

bathrobe 1200 g

quilt cover 700 g

man’s work shirt 600 g

sheet, man’s pyjamas 500 g

tablecloth 250 g

pillow case, towelling towel, night dress, man’s shirt 200 g

tea cloth, ladies’ briefs, napkin, blouse, men’s underpants 100 g

Removing stains

Stubborn stains may not be removed by just water and detergent. It is therefore advisable

to treat them prior to washing.

Helpful hints and tips

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.

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 (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. 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

, 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.

Detergents and additives

Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent and use of the correct quan

tities to avoid waste and protect the environment.

Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which, in large quantities, can up

set 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.

All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance:

• powder detergents for all types of fabric

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

• liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60°C max) for all

types of fabric, or special for woollens only.

The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the

dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme.

If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected.

Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which allows an optimal use of the

concentrated detergent.

Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on quantities to use and do not

exceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent dispenser drawer .

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.

1) do not use acetone on artificial silk

Helpful hints and tips

A water softener must be added when water has a medium-high degree of hardness (from

degree of hardness II). Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The quantity of detergent

can then always be adjusted to degree of hardness I (= soft).

Level Characteristic

Degrees of water hardness

German °dH French °T.H.

1 soft 0-7 0-15

2 medium 8-14 16-25

3 hard 15-21 26-37

4 very hard > 21 > 37

Care and cleaning

You must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply, before you can carry out

any cleaning or maintenance work.

Descaling

The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use a water

softening powder in the machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing, and ac

cording to the softening powder manufacturer's instructions. This will help to prevent the

formation of lime deposits.

After each wash

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.

Maintenance 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.

To run a maintenance wash:

• The drum should be empty of laundry.

• Select the hottest cotton wash programme.

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

External cleaning

Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance with soap and water only, and then dry thor

oughly.

Do not use methylated spirits, solvents or similar products to clean the cabinet.

Detergent dispenser drawer

The detergent dispenser drawer should be cleaned regularly.

1. Remove the detergent dispenser drawer by pulling it firmly.

Care and cleaning

2. Remove the conditioner insert from the

middle compartment.

3. Clean all parts with water.

4. Put the conditioner insert in as far as it

will go, so that it is firmly in place.

5. Clean all parts of the washing machine,

especially the nozzles in the top of the

washing-in chamber, with a brush.

6. Insert the detergent dispenser drawer in

the guide rails and push it in.

Washing drum

Rust deposits in the drum may occur due to rusting foreign bodies in the washing or tap

water containing iron.

Do not clean the drum with acidic descaling agents, scouring agents containing chlorine

or iron or steel wool.

1. Remove any rust deposits on the drum with a cleaning agent for stainless steel.

2. Run a washing cycle without any washing to clean off any cleaning agent residues.

Programme: Short Cotton Programme at maximum temperature and add approx. 1/4

measuring cup of detergent.

Door seal

Check from time to time the door seal and elimi

nate eventual possible objects that could be trap

ped in the fold.

Drain pump

The pump should be inspected regularly and particularly if:

• the machine does not empty and/or spin

Care and cleaning

• the machine makes an unusual noise during draining due to objects such as safety pins,

coins etc. blocking the pump.

Proceed as follows:

1. Disconnect the appliance.

2. If necessary wait until the water has cooled down.

3. Open the pump door.

4. Place a container close to the pump to collect any spillage.

5. Release the emergency emptying hose, place it in the container and remove its cap

cover.

6. When no more water comes out, un

screw the pump and remove it. Always

keep a rag nearby to dry up spillage of

water when removing the pump.

7. Remove any objects from the pump impeller by rotating it.

Care and cleaning

8. Put the cap back on the emergency emp

tying hose and place the latter back in

its seat.

9. Screw the pump fully in.

10. Close the pump door.

WARNING!

When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme selected there can be hot

water in the pump. Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle, always wait until

the appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty. When replacing the cover, ensure it is

securely retightened so as to stop leaks and young children being able to remove it.

Cleaning the water inlet filters

If the appliance doesn't fill, takes long to fill water, the starting button blinks yellow or the

display (if available) shows the relevant alarm (see chapter "What to do if..." for more details),

check if the water inlet filters are blocked .

To clean the water inlet filters:

1. Turn off the water tap.

2. Unscrew the hose from the tap.

3. Clean the filter in the hose with a stiff

brush.

4. Screw the hose back onto the tap. Make

sure the connection is tight.
