Preparing the wash cycle Preparing the wash cycle Sorting out the laundry Follow the wash code symbols on each garment label and the manufacturer’s washing instructions. Sort the laundry as follows: whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates, woollens. Temperatures 95° or 90° for normally soiled white cottons and linen (e.g. tea cloths, towels, tablecloths, sheets...). 60°/50° for normally soiled, colour fast garments (e.g. shirts, night dresses, pyjamas....
Preparing the wash cycle 27 Maximum loads Recommended loads are indicated in the washing programme charts. General rules: Cotton, linen: drum full but not too tightly packed; Synthetics: drum no more than half full; Delicate fabrics and woollens: drum no more than one third full. Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient use of water and energy. For heavily soiled laundry, reduce the load size. Washing a maximum load makes the most efficient use of water and energy.
Preparing the wash cycle Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a rust removing product used cold. Be careful with rust stains which are not recent since the cellulose structure will already have been damaged and the fabric tends to hole. Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well (whites and fast coloureds only). Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach (whites and fast coloureds only). Ball point pen and glue: moisten with acetone (*), lay the garment on a soft cloth and dab the stain.
Preparing the wash cycle 29 Pour liquid detergent into the dispenser drawer compartment marked just before starting the programme. Any fabric softener or starching additives must be poured into the compartment marked before starting the wash programme. Follow the product manufacturers’ recommendations on quantities to use and do not exceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent dispenser drawer.
Care and cleaning Care and cleaning 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 manufacturer's instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of lime deposits.

Care and cleaning Drain pump The pump should be inspected regularly and particularly if • the machine does not empty and/or spin • the machine makes an unusual noise during draining due to objects such as safety pins, coins etc. blocking the pump. Proceed as follows: 1. Disconnect the appliance. 2. If necessary wait until the water has cooled down. 3. Open the pump door. 4. Place a container close to the pump to collect any spillage. 5.
Care and cleaning 8. Put the cap back on the emergency emptying hose and place the latter back in its seat. 9. Screw the pump fully in. 10. Close the pump door. Warning! When the appliance is in use and depending on the programme selected there can be hot water in the pump. Never remove the pump cover during a wash cycle, always wait until the appliance has finished the cycle, and is empty.
Care and cleaning Frost precautions If the machine is installed in a place where the temperature could drop below 0°C, proceed as follows: 1. Close the water tap and unscrew the water inlet hose from the tap. 2. Place the end of the emergency emptying hose and that of the inlet hose in a bowl placed on the floor and let water drain out. 3. Screw the water inlet hose back on and reposition the emergency emptying hose after having put the cap on again.
