Before washing for the first time, put the appliance through one high temperature
cycle without a load, according to the following procedure:
1). connect the washing machine to the power supply,
2). open the water valve,
3). set the programme selector dial to washing at high temperature, add a suitable
detergent and press Start/Pause.

Heavy soil
in order to achieve a better result, wash less laundry,
add more detergent. Rinse the washing machine after washing heavily soiled
garments (e.g. work clothes) or clothing that loses fibres. To do this, run the wash
cycle at 60°C, for example Cotton or Synthetics without any load.
Reduce energy and water consumption
Wash small amounts of lightly soiled laundry using a suitable washing programme, for example
15’ Refresh.
For most programmes, the washing machine detects load.
For partial load, when using the Cotton programme, the appliance will reduce water and energy
consumption and shorten the wash cycle.
The most efficient programmes in terms of energy and water consumption are generally those
that are run at lower temperatures and for longer time.
You will save energy and water by loading the household washing machine to the full capacity
indicated by the manufacturer for the appropriate programmes.
