Detergents and laundry
Detergent dispenser drawer
Successful washing results also depend on the correct
dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not
necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in
fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance and
contribute to environmental pollution.
! Do not use hand washing detergents; they create too
much foam.
Open the detergent
dispenser drawer and pour
in the detergent or washing
additive, as follows.
compartment 1: Pre-wash detergent (powder)
Before pouring in the detergent, make sure that extra
compartment 4 has been removed.
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle
(powder or liquid)
If liquid detergent is used, it is recommended that the
removable plastic partition
A
(supplied) be used for proper
dosage.
If powder detergent is used, place the partition into slot
B .
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
extra compartment 4: Bleach
Preparing the laundry

- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.

weight of the laundry when dry:
Durable fabrics: max. 9 kg
Synthetic fabrics: max. 4 kg
Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg

1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g

When running the programme, do not mix garments of
different colours. We recommend the use of powder
detergent. Pre-treatment with special additives is
recommended if there are obstinate stains.
Whites:
use this cycle
2
to wash white clothes. The
programme is designed to maintain the brightness of white
clothes over time. Use powder detergent for best results.
Anti allergy: use programme 7 to remove major allergens
such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair.
Steam Refresh: this programme refreshes garments
by removing bad odours and relaxing the fibres (1,5 kg,
roughly 3 items). Insert dry items only (that are not dirty)
and select programme
8 . The garments will be damp once
the cycle is completed, so we recommend hanging them
to dry. The
8 programme makes ironing easier.

Not recommended for wool or silk garments.
!
Do not add softeners or detergents.

The indicator light for the “ ” option will switch on when
this cycle is selected.

machine has been tested and approved by The
Woolmark Company for washing wool garments labelled
as hand washable provided that the garments are
washed according to the instructions on the garment
label and those issued by the manufacturer of this
washing machine. Hotpoint-Ariston is the first washing
machine brand to be approved by The Woolmark
Company for Apparel Care- Platinum for its washing
performance and consumption of energy and water.

Delicates: use programme 10 to wash very delicate
garments having strasses or sequins.
To wash
silk
garments and
curtains
select the cycle
10
and set the “
Delicate

We recommend turning the garments inside out before
washing and placing small items into the special bag
for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate
garments for best results.
