Removing stains
Stubborn stains may not be removed
by just water and detergent. It is
therefore advisable to treat them prior
to washing.
Blood: treat fresh stains with cold
water. For dried stains, soak overnight
in water with a special detergent then
rub in the soap and water.
Oil based paint: moisten with benzine
stain remover, lay the garment on a
soft cloth and dab the stain; treat
several times.
Dried grease stains: moisten with
turpentine, lay the garment on a soft
surface and dab the stain with the
fingertips and a cotton cloth.
Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water
or a rust removing product used cold.
Be careful with rust stains which are
not recent since the cellulose structure
will already have been damaged and
the fabric tends to hole.
Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse
well (whites and fast coloureds only).
Grass: soap lightly and treat with
bleach (whites and fast coloureds only).
Ball point pen and glue: moisten with
acetone (*), lay the garment on a soft
cloth and dab the stain.
Lipstick: moisten with acetone as
above, then treat stains with
methylated spirits. Remove any
residual marks from white fabrics with
bleach.
Red wine: soak in water and detergent,
rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid,
then rinse. Treat any residual marks
with bleach.
Ink: depending on the type of ink,
moisten the fabric first with acetone (*),
then with acetic acid; treat any residual
marks on white fabrics with bleach and
then rinse thoroughly.
Tar stains: first treat with stain
remover, methylated spirits or benzine,
then rub with detergent paste.
(*) do not use acetone on artificial silk.
Detergents and additives
Good washing results also depend on
the choice of detergent and use of the
correct quantities to avoid waste and
protect the environment. Although
biodegradable, detergents contain
substances which, in large quantities,
can upset the delicate balance of
nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on
the type of fabric (delicates, woollens,
cottons, etc.), the colour, washing
temperature and degree of soiling.
All commonly available washing
machine detergents may be used in
this appliance:
• powder detergents for all types of
fabric,
• powder detergents for delicate
fabrics (60°C max) and woollens,
• liquid detergents, preferably for low
temperature wash programmes
(60°C max) for all types of fabric, or
special for woollens only.
The detergent and any additives must
be placed in the appropriate
compartments of the dispenser drawer
before starting the wash programme.
If using concentrated powder or liquid
detergents, a programme
without
prewash must be selected.
