Successful 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
cause build up on the inside of your appliance and contri-
bute to environmental pollution.
! Do not use hand washing detergents because these
create too much foam.
! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for pre-
washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.
! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.
Compartment 1: Do not pour detergent into the middle
compartment 1.
Compartment 2: Washing detergent (powder or liquid)
If liquid detergent is used, it is recommended that the remo-
vable plastic partition A (supplied) be used for proper dosage.
If powder detergent is used, place the partition into slot B.
Compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener must not exceed the "max" level indicated
on the central pin.

Preparing the laundry

• Divide the laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
• Do not exceed the values listed in the "Table of wash
cycles", which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry.

1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1.200 g
1 towel 150-250 g

recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the
"Programme table". We recommend using liquid detergent,
and adding the amount suitable for a half-load.
Duvet: to wash double or single duvets (the weight of which
should not exceed 3.5 kg), cushions or clothes padded with
goose down such as puffa jackets, use the special wash
programme number 12. We recommend that duvets are
placed in the drum with their edges folded inwards (see
figure) and that no more than ¾ of the total volume of the
drum is used. To achieve the best results, we recommend
that a liquid detergent is used and placed inside the detergent
dispenser drawer.
