Useful tips Never use your washing

machine to wash... torn, fraying

or non-hemmed linen. If it is

absolutely neccessary, place it in

a bag for protection. Do not wash

coloured linen with whites.

Watch the weight!

For best results, do not exceed

the weight limits stated below(figures show weight of dry

garments):

- Resistant fabrics:5 kg maximum

- Synthetic fabrics:2.5 kg maximum

- Delicate fabrics:2 kg maximum

- Pure new wool:1 kg maximum

How to wash almost anythingCurtains.

Curtains tend to crease a great

deal. A useful tip to reduce

creasing: fold the curtains and

place them in a pillow case or

mesh bag. Do not load anythingelse inside the appliance, this

will ensure that the overall

weight does not exceed the half

load.

Trainers.

Once you have removed mud

and dirt from trainers, you can

even wash them with jeans or

any other tough garments. Do

not wash trainers with whites.

Quilted coats and anorak.

You can wash quilted coats and

wind-cheaters, too, if they are

padded with goose or duck

down. Do not load more than

2-3 kg and never load 5 kg.Repeat rinse once or twice

using the gentle spin.

How much does it weigh?

1 sheet 400-500 gr.

1 pillow case 150-200 gr.

1 tablecloth 400-500 gr.

1 bathrobe 900-1,200 gr.

1 towel 150-250 gr.

Coloured T-shirts, printed

ones and shirts last longer if turned

inside out before washing.Printed T-shirts and sweatshirts

should always be ironed inside out.

Dungaree alert.

Very popular salopette type

overalls have straps with hooks

that can damage the drum of your

washing machine or other

garments during the wash. Tominimise the risk, place hooks in

the pocket and fasten with safety

pins.

Holidays: unplug the

appliance.

It is recommended that you

should unplug the machine from

the socket and turn off the water

supply. Leave the door ajar toallow air circulation to the drawand the door gasket area. This will

prevent unpleasant odours.


For best results, werecommend you use a specificdetergent, taking care not towash more than 1 kg of

laundry.

You must follow the dosage

recommendations provided bythe manufacturers when addingdetergent or fabric conditioner.Doses will vary according to thewash load, the water hardnessand how soiled the washing is.Experience will help you selectthe right dosage almostautomatically: it will become yoursecret.Ensure no overfilling whenadding fabric conditioner incompartment 3.The washing machine automa-

tically adds the softener to thewash in each programme.Liquid detergent is poured intocompartment 2 just a fewseconds before starting thewash cycle.Remember that liquid detergentis only designed for washcycles of up to 60 degrees onnon pre-wash items.

In compartment 1:Detergent for pre-washing (powder)

In compartment 2:Detergent for washing

(powder or liquid)

In compartment 3:Additives (softeners, perfumes, etc.)

Useful tips about the detergent dispenserIts important for a good wash

The first secret is the easiest: the detergent dispenser is

opened by pull it outwards.

Special containers are sold with

liquid or powder detergents forplacing inside the washingmachine drum, these arepositioned according to theinstructions found in thedetergent boxNever use hand washdetergent, because it may formtoo much foam, which coulddamage the washing machine.Detergents that are specificallyformulated for both hand andmachine wash are anexception.

One last secret: when washingwith cold water, always reducethe amount of detergent you use:it dissolves less easily in coldwater than in hot water, so partof it would be wasted.

Cutting costs efficiently A guide to environmentallyfriendly and economic useof your appliance.

MAXIMISE THE LOAD SIZEAchieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the recommendedmaximum load size.SAVE up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.

DO YOU NEED TO PRE-WASH?For heavily soiled laundry only!SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by NOTselecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.

IS A HOT WASH REQUIRED?Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water before washing toreduce the necessity of a hot wash programme.SAVE up to 50% energy by using a 60C wash programme.

BEFORE USING A DRYING PROGRAMME ...SAVE energy and time by selecting the highest suitable spin speed to reduce the watercontent in laundry before using a drying programme.

The detergent dispenser can beremoved and cleaned: pull it outwards,as indicated in the figure. Then leave itunder running water for a few minutes.

Treat your machine well and it will providemany years of trouble free serviceYour washing machine is a reliable companion in life and on the job. It is just as important for you to keep itin shape.

Your washing machine isdesigned to provide reliable

service over many years. A few

simple steps will help to prolong

its life and avoid problems. It is

advisable, to turn off water taps

when the machine is not to be

used, this protects the hoses,

etc.

If the water in your area is too

hard, use a deliming product

(water is hard if it often leaveswhitish stains around taps or

drains, especially of bath tubs.For more accurate information asto the type of water in your

system, call the local water

works or a local plumber).

Pockets must always be

emptied removing even pins,

badges and any other hard

object.

The washing machine exterior

should be cleaned with a rag

dipped in lukewarm water and

soap.

Never exaggerate with doses.

Normal detergents already

contain deliming agents. Only ifthe water is particularly hard,

that is, rich in lime content, do

we recommend the use of a

specific product at every wash.

A periodical wash cycle with a

dose of a deliming product,

without detergents or washing,

may prove useful.

Never use too much detergent

or additives because this could

cause an excess amount of

foam, scaling and possible

damage to the component parts

of your washing machine.

It is important to washthe detergent dispenser

regularly.To prevent dried washing

powder fromaccumulating, place thedispenser under runningwater for a few minutes.

Do not forget to empty all pockets: small objects cancause damage to your washer.


When in need, check the pump and the rubber hose.

The washer comes equipped with a self-cleaning pump that does not require any cleaning or maintenance. Smallobjects may accidentally fall into the pump: coins, hair clips, loose buttons and other small items. To avoid possibledamage, they are withheld in an accessible pre-chamber, situated at the lower end of the pump.

Attention: Before attempting to examine this pre-chamber, firstensure that the machine has finished its programme and is empty.Unplug the machine, as with any maintenance.

To gain access gently ease down the top of the plinth panel situated atthe base of the machine, with a screwdriver etc, to release it. Thenease the top edge forward to allow it to be lifted clear (Fig. 1). Placea shallow dish or tray below the cover of the pre-chamber to catchthe small amount of water present. Release the cover by turning anti-clockwise (Fig. 2). Ensure that the cover is securely replaced.Re-fit the plinth cover by inserting the hooks on its lower edge into

the slots and ease the top edge back into position.The water inlet hoseCheck the rubber hose at least once a year. If you see any cracks, replace it immediately. When you use your washing machine,water pressure is very strong and a cracked tube could easily split open.
