Sort your laundry according to
Type of fabric/care label (cotton, mixed bres, synthetics, wool, handwash
items). Colour (separate coloured and white items, wash new coloured
items separately). Delicates (wash small items – like nylon stockings – and
items with hooks – like bras – in a cloth bag or pillow case with zip).
Empty all pockets
Objects like coins or lighters can damage your laundry as well as the drum.
Follow the dosage recommendation / additives
It optimizes the cleaning result, it avoids irritating residues of surplus
detergent in your laundry and it saves money by avoiding waste of
surplus detergent
Use low temperature and longer duration
The most ecient programmes in terms of energy consumption are
generally those that perform at lower temperatures and longer duration.
Observe the load sizes
Load your washing machine up to the capacity indicated in the
“PROGRAMME CHART table to save water and energy.
Noise and remaining moisture content
They are inuenced by the spinning speed: the higher the spinning
speed in the spinning phase, the higher the noise and the lower the
remaining moisture content.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
For any cleaning and maintenance, switch o and unplug the washing
machine. Do not use ammable uids to clean the washing machine.
Clean and maintain your washing machine periodically (at least 4 times
per year).
Cleaning the outside of the washing machine
Use a soft damp cloth to clean the outer parts of the washing machine.
Do not use glass or general purpose cleaners, scouring powder or similar
to clean the control panel – these substances might damage the printing.
Checking the water supply hose
Check the inlet hose regularly for brittleness and cracks. If damaged,
replace it by a new hose available through our After-Sales Service or your
specialist dealer.
Cleaning the water lter / draining residual water
Switch o and unplug the washing machine, take out the kitchen plinth
before cleaning the water lter or draining residual water.
The kitchen plinth must be mounted back all the time once the cleaning
operation is over.
If you used a hot wash programme, wait until the water has cooled down
before draining any water. Clean the water lter regularly, to avoid that the
water cannot drain after the wash due to obstruction of the lter. If the water
cannot drain, the display indicates that the water lter may be clogged.
1 . Place a container close to the pump to collect any spillage.
2 . Remove, pulling it out, the emergency drain hose from the base
of the washing machine .
Remove the stopper of the emergency drain hose at the end of the hose
and let the water ow into the container.
3 . Turn the exhaust lter handle and pull it out of the housing .
When the container of plinth is full with water, plug the stopper to the
hose end, and reinsert the small hose in the washing machine’s base .
After, empty the container .
Afterwards rmly close the emergency drain hose with the stopper .
4. Remove lter: Lay a cotton cloth beneath the water lter, which can
absorb a small amount of rest water . Then remove the water lter by
turning it out anticlockwise .
5 . Clean the water lter: remove residues in the lter and clean it under
running water .
6 . Insert the water lter: Reinsert the water lter again by turning it in
clockwise direction . Make sure to turn it in as far as it goes; the lter
handle must be in vertical position . To test water tightness of the water
lter, you can pour about 1 liter of water into the detergent dispenser .
