MIX POWER SYSTEM The washing machine is equipped with an innovative pre-mix of detergent and water. A jet of water under high pressure sprays the mixture directly in the load. In the initial phase of the wash cycle there are planned spin sequences that, in conjunction with the high pressure spray, facilitate the penetration of the wash solution through the fibers thoroughly removing dirt ensuring the best wash performance.
Detergent drawer P Detergents, washing aids and amounts to use The detergent drawer is split into 3 compartments: Choice of detergent General purpose detergents - the compartment labelled "1" is for prewash detergent; - - the compartment labelled " " is for special additives, fabric softeners, fragrances, starch, brighteners etc; - - the compartment labelled "2" is for main wash detergent. An over dosing of detergent can cause excessive foaming.
Dosages Only use detergents which are suitable for use in a washing machine. You will obtain the best results from your wash with the minimum use of chemical products and the best care for your laundry if you take into consideration the degree of soiling as well as the type of detergent to choose. The amount of detergent to use depends on: - water hardness: depending on the hardness of the water and the type of detergent used, it is possible to reduce the amount of detergent.
Main wash Sorting the laundry - It is recommended you wash only items which are machine washable with water and detergent and not dry-clean items. - If you need to wash rugs, bedspreads or other heavy items, it is best not to spin them.
Cleaning and routine maintenance Do not use alcohol-based scourers and / or thinners on the outside of your washing machine, just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing machine needs very little maintenance: - Cleaning the drawer compartments. - Cleaning the filter. - Cleaning the door glass. Cleaning the drawer compartments Even if it is not strictly necessary, it is good to clean the compartments for bleaching detergents and additives occasionally.
