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 de-
tergents 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 tem-
perature wash programmes (60°C max)
for all types of fabric, or special for wool-
lens only.
The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments of
the dispenser drawer before starting the
wash programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme
without prewash must be selected.
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation
system which allows an optimal use of the
concentrated detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer's recom-
mendations on quantities to use and do
not exceed the «MAX» mark in the de-
tergent dispenser drawer .

DRYING HINTS

Preparing the drying cycle
As a dryer, the appliance works on the con-
densation principle.
Therefore, the water tap must be open
and the drain hose must drain water in-
to a sink or into the drain pipe, even dur-
ing the drying cycle.
Attention!
Before starting the drying programme, re-
duce the loads of washed laundry, in order
to obtain good performances.
Laundry not suitable for drying
• Particularly delicate items such as synthet-
ic curtains, woollen and silk, garments
with metal inserts, nylon stockings, bulky
garments such as anoraks, bed covers,
quilts, sleeping bags and duvets must
not be machine dried.
• Avoid drying dark clothes with light col-
oured fluffy items such as towels as
these can attract the fluff.
• Remove the laundry when the appliance
has finished drying.
Quantity of detergent to be used
The type and quantity of detergent will de-
pend on the type of fabric, load size, de-
gree of soiling and hardness of the water
used.
Follow the product manufacturers' instruc-
tions on quantities to use.
Use less detergent if:
• you are washing a small load
• the laundry is lightly soiled
• large amounts of foam form during wash-
ing.
Degrees of water hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called "de-
grees" of hardness. Information on hard-
ness of the water in your area can be ob-
tained from the relevant water supply com-
pany, or from your local authority. If the wa-
ter hardness degree is medium or high we
suggest you to add a water softener follow-
ing always the manufacturer's instructions.
When the degree of hardness is soft, read-
just the quantity of the detergent.
• To avoid a static charge when drying is
completed, use either a fabric softener
when you are washing the laundry or a
fabric conditioner specifically for tumble
dryers.
• Garments padded with foam-rubber or
materials similar to foam-rubber must not
be machine dried; they represent a fire
hazard.
• Also, fabrics containing residue of setting
lotions or hair sprays, nail solvents or sim-
ilar solutions must not be machine dried
in order to avoid the formation of harmful
vapours.
The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments of
the dispenser drawer before starting the
wash programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme
without prewash must be selected.
Your appliance incorporates a re-circulation
system which allows an optimal use of the
concentrated detergent.

mendations on quantities to use and do
