DETERGENTS & LAUNDRY
Detergent Dispenser Drawer
Good 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 a build up on the inside of your
appliance and contribute to environmental pollution.
•
Do not use hand washing detergents because these create too much foam.
Open the detergent dispenser drawer and pour in the detergent
or washing additive, as follows.
•
Do not pour detergent into the middle compartment (*).
Detergent should only be poured into the compartment 1.
Compartment 1: 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 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
Garments Requiring Special Care
Anti Stain:
The cycle
1
is suitable to heavily-soiled garments with resistant colours. It ensures a
washing class that is higher than the standard class (A class). 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 60°:
Use the cycle
7
to remove major allergens such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s
hair.
Anti Allergy 40°:
(cycle
8
) cycle suitable for cotton laundry and other resistant fabrics to guarantee
the removal of pollen and cat and dog hair already at 40°.
Lingerie:
For undergarments of any colour, in any fabric. Use special wash cycle
9
.
Baby:
Use the special wash cycle
10
to remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while removing
all traces of detergent from nappies in order to prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering
allergic reactions. The cycle has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by using a greater
quantity of water and optimising the effect of special disinfecting additives added to the detergent.
Bed & Bath:
Use the cycle
11
to wash bed linen and towels in one single cycle: it optimises softener
performance and helps you save time and energy. We recommend the use of powder detergent.
Cotton Standard 20°:
(cycle
5
) Ideal for lightly soiled cotton loads. The effective performance levels
achieved at cold temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°, are guaranteed by a
mechanical action which operates at varying speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.
