13.2 Stubborn stains

For some stains, water and detergent is

not sufficient.
We recommend that you pre-treat these

stains before you put the items in the

appliance.
Special stain removers are available.

Use the special stain remover that is

applicable to the type of stain and fabric.

13.3 Detergent type and

quantity

The choice of detergent and use of

correct quantities not only affects your

wash performance, but also helps to

avoid waste and protect the environment:
• Use only detergents and other

treatments specially made for

washing machines. First, follow these

generic rules:

– powder detergents for all types of

fabric, excluding delicate. Prefer

powder detergents containing

bleach for whites and laundry

sanitization,

– liquid detergents, preferably for

low temperature wash

programmes (60 °C max) for all

types of fabric, or special ones for

woollens only.

• The choice and quantity of detergent

will depend on: type of fabric

(delicates, woollens, cottons, etc), the

colour of clothes, size of the load,

degree of soiling, wash temperature

and hardness of the water used.

• Follow the instructions that you find

on packaging of the detergents or

other treatments without exceeding
the indicated maximum level (

).

• Do not mix different types of

detergents.

• Use less detergent if:

– you are washing a small load,

– the laundry is lightly soiled,

– there is large amounts of foam

during washing.

• When using detergent tabs or pods,

always put them inside the drum, not

in the detergent dispenser.

Insufficient detergent may cause:

• unsatisfactory washing results,

• the wash load to turn grey,

• greasy clothes,

• mould in the appliance.
Excessive detergent may cause:

• sudsing,

• reduced washing effect,

• inadequate rinsing,

• a greater impact for the environment.

13.4 Ecological hints

To save water, energy and to help

protect the environment, we recommend

that you follow these tips:
• Normally soiled laundry may be

washed without prewash in order to

save detergent, water and time (the

environment is protected too!).

• Loading the appliance to the 

maximum capacity indicated for

each programmes helps to reduce

energy and water consumption.

• With adequate pre-treatment, stains

and limited soiling can be removed;

the laundry can then be washed at a

lower temperature.

• To use the correct quantity of

detergent, refer to the quantity

suggested by the detergent producer

and check the water hardness of you

domestic system. Refer to 'Water

hardness'.

• Set the maximum possible spin

speed for the selected washing

programme before drying your

laundry in a tumble dryer. This will

save energy during drying!

13.5 Water hardness

If the water hardness in your area is high

or moderate, we recommend that you

additive for water softening. In areas

where the water hardness is soft it is not

necessary to use him.
To find out the water hardness in your

area, contact your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of additive for

water softening. Follow the instructions

that you find on the packaging of the

product.
