PREPARATION OF THE WASHING

Sort the laundry

1.

Sort the laundry according to…

• Type of fabric / care label symbol

Cottons, mixed fibres, easy care/synthetics, 

wool, handwashed items.

• Colour

Separate whites and coloured items. Wash new 

coloured articles separately.

• Size

Wash items of different sizes in the same load to 

improve washing efficiency and distribution in 

the drum.

• Fabric delicacy

Wash delicate articles separately: Use a special 

programme for Pure New Wool

, curtains and 

other delicates. Always remove curtain glides or 

wash curtains with the glides inside a cotton bag. 

Use the special programme for handwash fabrics. 

Wash small articles (e.g. nylon stockings, belts etc.) 

and articles with hooks (e.g. bras) in special cotton 

bags for washing machines or in zipped pillow cases.

2.Empty pockets 

Coins, safety pins and similar items can damage 

your laundry and the appliance drum and tub.

3.Fasteners

Close zips and fasten buttons or hooks; loose 

belts or ribbons should be tied together.

Stain removal

•

Blood, milk, egg and other organic substances 

are generally removed by the enzyme phase of 

the programme.

•

To remove red wine, coffee, tea, grass and fruit 

stains etc. add a stain removing agent in 

detergent dispenser

or chlorine bleach in 

compartment

(depending on model).

•

Particularly stubborn stains can be treated with 

stain remover before the wash.

Dyeing and Bleaching

Commercially available products usually consist of 

a dye colour, fixing agent and salt. Pour the dye 

colour, the fixing agent and then the salt directly 

into the empty drum. Fill in the laundry only 

afterwards.

•

Use exclusively dyes and bleaches recommended 

for washing machines.

•

Follow the Manufacturer’s instructions.

•

Plastic and rubber components of the machine 

can be stained by dyes.

Loading the laundry

1.

Open the door.

2.

Load the articles one at a time loosely into the 

drum, without overfilling. Follow loads 

recommended in the “programme chart”. 

Overloading will result in unsatisfactory washing 

results and creased laundry.

3.

Close the door.

DETERGENT AND ADDITIVES

Choice of detergent and additives

The type of detergent depends on:

•

type of fabric (cottons, easy care/synthetics, 

delicate items, wool).

Note: 

use only specific detergents for wool.

•

colour;

•

wash temperature;

•

degree and type of soiling.

Notes:

Whitish residues on dark fabrics are caused by 

insoluble detergent components used in modern 

phosphate-free powder detergents. 

If this occurs, shake or brush out the fabric or use 

liquid detergents.

Keep detergents and additives in a dry place and 

out of reach of children.

Use only detergents and additives specifically 

produced for domestic washing machines.

If you use descaling agents, dyes or bleaches, 

make sure they are suitable for washing machine 

use. Descaler could contain components that can 

attack parts of your washing machine.

Do not use solvents in the machine 

(e.g. turpentine, benzine, etc.). 

Do not machine wash fabrics that have been 

treated with solvents or flammable liquids.

Dosage

Follow the instructions on the detergent pack in 

relation to:

•

the degree and type of soiling;

•

the size of the load;

•

full load: follow the detergent manufacturer’s 

instructions;

•

half load: 3/4 of the normal amount;

•

minimum load (about 1 kg): 1/2 the amount 

used for full load;
