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 A: Washing detergent (powder or
liquid)
Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately
prior to the start of the wash cycle.
Compartment B: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
extra compartment C:
we recommend this
compartment is used for liquid detergent.
Preparing the laundry
• Divide the laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
• Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the
weight of the laundry when dry:
Durable fabrics: max. 8 kg
Synthetic fabrics: max. 3,5 kg
Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg
Wool: max. 2 kg
Silk: max. 2 kg
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1,200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
Special wash cycles
Jeans:
turn the garments inside out before washing and
use liquid detergent. Use wash cycle
5
.
Shirts:
use special wash cycle
6
to wash shirts in various
fabrics and colours.
It guarantees maximum care is taken of the garments and
minimises the formation of creases.

C
Wool:
wash cycle
7
can be used to wash all woollen
garments in the machine, even those carrying the “hand
wash only”
label. To achieve the best results, use a
special detergent and do not exceed the maximum load of
2 kg.
Delicates:
use special wash cycle
8
to wash all silk
garments. We recommend the use of special detergent
which has been designed to wash delicate clothes.
Curtains:
we recommend you fold the curtains and place
them in a pillow case or mesh bag. Use wash cycle
8
.
Duvet:
to wash double or single duvets (the weight
of which should not exceed 3 kg), cushions or clothes
padded with goose down such as puffa jackets, use the
special wash cycle number
9
“Duvet”. We recommend
that duvets are placed in the drum with their edges folded
inwards
(see figure)
and that no more than
¾
of the total
volume of the drum is used.
To achieve the best results, we recommend that a
liquid detergent is used and placed inside the detergent
dispenser drawer.
Sport Shoes
(wash cycle
10
): is for washing sports
shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs
simultaneously.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations
before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform
manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which
is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If,
after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly,
the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is
excessively unbalanced, the washer-dryer performs the
distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage
improved load distribution and balance, we recommend
small and large garments are mixed in the load.
