drying time therefore saving ener-

FLUFF IN THE GARMENTS
During the WASHING AND/OR DRYING
PHASE, certain types of fabric, as sponge-
cloth, wool, sweatshirt, could release fluff.
The released fluff could stick to the fabrics
during the next cycle.
This drawback increases with technical fab-
rics.
To prevent the lint in your clothes, it is rec-
ommended:
• To do not wash dark fabrics after you
washed and dried light colored fabrics
(new sponge, wool, sweatshirt especially)
and vice versa.
• To air-dry this type of fabrics when they
are washed the first time.
• To clean the filter.
• Perform one or more rinse cycles to
wash the drum between the washing and
drying of fabrics with different colors.
• After the drying phase, thoroughly clean
the empty drum, the gasket and the door
with a wet rag.
CARE AND CLEANING
Warning! You must disconnect the
appliance from the electricity supply,
before you can carry out any cleaning
or maintenance work.
DESCALING
The water we use normally contains lime. It
is a good idea to periodically use a water
softening powder in the machine. Do this
separately from any laundry washing, and
according to the softening powder manu-
facturer's instructions. This will help to pre-
vent the formation of lime deposits.
AFTER EACH WASH
Leave the door open for a while. This helps
to prevent mould and stagnant smells form-
ing inside the appliance. Keeping the door
open after a wash will also help to preserve
the door seal.
MAINTENANCE WASH
With the use of low temperature washes it
is possible to get a build up of residues in-
side the drum.
We recommend that a maintenance wash
be performed on a regular basis.
To run a maintenance wash:
• The drum should be empty of laundry.
• Select the hottest cotton wash pro-
gramme.
• Use a normal measure of detergent,
must be a powder with biological proper-
ties.
EXTERNAL CLEANING
Clean the exterior cabinet of the appliance
with soap and water only, and then dry
thoroughly.
Important! Do not use methylated spirits,
solvents or similar products to clean the
cabinet.
