Hints and tips
The laundry load
• Divide the laundry in: white, coloured,
synthetics, delicates and wool.
• Obey the washing instructions that are on
the laundry care labels.
• Do not wash together white and coloured
items.
• Some coloured items can discolour with the
first wash. We recommend that you wash
them separately for the first times.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks
and poppers. Tie up belts.
• Empty the pockets and unfold the items.
• Turn inside out multilayered fabrics, wool
and items with painted illustrations.
• Remove hard stains.
• Wash with a special detergent heavy soil
stains.
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove the
hooks or put the curtains in a washing bag
or pillowcase.
• Do not wash in the appliance laundry without
hems or with cuts. Use a washing bag to
wash small and/or delicate items (e.g.
underwired bras, belts, tights, etc. ).
• A very small load can cause balance
problems with the spin phase. If this occurs,
adjust manually the items in the tub and start
the spin phase again.
Stubborn stains
For some stains, water and detergent is not
sufficient.
We recommend that you remove 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.
Detergents and additives
• Only use detergents and additives specially
made for washing machines:
– powder detergents for all types of fabric,
– powder detergents for delicate fabrics
(40 °C max) and woollens,
