ECOLOGICAL HINTS
To save water, energy and to help protect the
environment, we recommend that you follow these
tips:
• Normally soiled laundry may be washed
without prewash in order to save detergent,
water and time (the environment is protected
too!).
• Loading the appliance to the maximum
capacity indicated for each programmes
helps to reduce energy and water
consumption.
• With adequate pre-treatment, stains and limited
soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be
washed at a lower temperature.
• To use the correct quantity of detergent, refer to
the quantity suggested by the detergent
producer and check the water hardness of your
domestic system. Refer to "Water hardness".
• Set the maximum possible spin speed for
the selected washing programme before
drying your laundry in a tumble dryer. This
will save energy during drying!
WATER HARDNESS
If the water hardness in your area is high or
moderate, we recommend that you use a water
softener for washing machines. In areas where the
water hardness is soft it is not necessary to use a
water softener.
To know the water hardness in your area, contact
your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of the water softener.
Obey the instructions that you find on the
packaging of the product.
CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters.
PERIODIC CLEANING SCHEDULE
Periodic cleaning helps to extend the life of
your appliance.
After each cycle, keep the door and the detergent
dispenser slightly ajar to get air circulation and dry
the humidity inside the appliance: this will prevent
mildew and odours.
If the appliance is not used for a long time: close
the water tap and unplug the appliance.
Indicative periodic cleaning schedule:
Descaling Twice a year
Maintenance wash Once a month
Clean door seal Every two months
Clean drum Every two months
Clean detergent dis-
penser

Clean drain pump fil-
ter
Twice a year
Clean the inlet hose
and the valve filter

The following paragraphs explain how you should
clean each part.
REMOVING FOREIGN OBJECTS
Make sure that pockets are empty and
all loose elements are tied up before
running your cycle. Refer to 'The
laundry load' in 'Hints and tips'.
Remove any foreign objects (such as metal clip,
buttons, coins, etc) that you may find in the door
seal, the filters and the drum. Refer to 'Door seal
with double lip trap', 'Cleaning the drum', 'Cleaning
the drain pump' and 'Cleaning the inlet hose and
the valve filter' paragraphs. If necessary, please
contact the Authorised Service Centre.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
Clean the appliance with mild soap and warm water
only. Fully dry all the surfaces. Do not use a
scouring pads or any scratching material.
CAUTION! Do not use alcohol,
solvents or chemical products.
CAUTION! Do not clean the metal
surfaces with chlorine-based
detergent.
DESCALING
If the water hardness in your area is high or
moderate, we recommend that you use a water
descaling product for washing machines.
Regularly examine the drum to prevent limescale
and rust particles.
