Detergents and laundry
Detergent dispenser drawer
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
contribute to environmental pollution.
Do not use hand washing detergents; they create too
much foam.
Open the detergent
dispenser drawer and pour
in the detergent or washing
additive, as follows.
Compartment A: Washing detergent (powder or
liquid)
Liquid detergent should only be poured in immediately
prior to the start of the wash cycle.
Compartment B: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
extra compartment C: we recommend this
compartment is used for liquid detergent.
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 listed values, which refer to the
weight of the laundry when dry:
Durable fabrics: max. 8 kg
Synthetic fabrics: max. 3,5 kg
Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg
Wool: max. 2 kg
Silk: max. 2 kg
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1,200 g
1 towel 150-250 g
Special wash cycles
Jeans: turn the garments inside out before washing
and use liquid detergent. Use wash cycle 5.
Shirts: use special wash cycle 6 to wash shirts in
various fabrics and colours.
It guarantees maximum care is taken of the garments
and minimises the formation of creases.

Wool: wash cycle 7 can be used to wash all woollen
garments in the machine, even those carrying the hand
wash only
label. To achieve the best results, use a
special detergent and do not exceed the maximum load
of 2 kg.
Delicates: use special wash cycle 8 to wash all silk
garments. We recommend the use of special detergent
which has been designed to wash delicate clothes.
Curtains: we recommend you fold the curtains and
place them in a pillow case or mesh bag. Use wash
cycle 8.
Duvet: to wash double or single duvets (the weight of
which should not exceed 3 kg), cushions or clothes
padded with goose down such as puffa jackets, use the
special wash cycle number 9 Duvet. 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.
Sport Shoes (
wash cycle
10): is for washing sports
shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs
simultaneously.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations
before every spin and to distribute the load in a
uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously at a
speed which is slightly greater than the washing
rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load is
not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a
reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively
unbalanced, the washer-dryer performs the
distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage
improved load distribution and balance, we
recommend small and large garments are mixed in
the load.
