Good washing results also depend on the correct
dose of detergent: adding too much detergent won't
necessarily make for a more efficient wash, and may
in fact cause build up on the interior of your
appliance and even pollute the environment.

compartment 1: Detergent for pre-wash
(powder)
Before pouring in the detergent, make sure that
extra compartment 4 has been removed.
compartment 2: Detergent for the wash cycle
(powder or liquid)
Liquid detergent should only be poured in
immediately prior to the wash cycle start.
compartment 3: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener should not overflow from the grid.
extra compartment 4: Bleach

Do not use hand wash detergent because it may
form too much foam.

Bleach cycle


Traditional bleach should be used on sturdy
white fabrics, and delicate bleach for coloured
fabrics, synthetics and for wool.
To run the bleach cycle alone, pour the bleach into
extra compartment 4 and set the Rinse programme
(for Cotton fabrics) or delicate Rinse
Synthetic fabrics). To bleach during a wash cycle,
pour in the detergent and fabric softener, set the
desired programme and enable the Bleaching option
(see page 43).

Open up the detergent
dispenser and pour in
the detergent and fabric
softener, as follows.
Place extra
compartment 4,
provided, into
compartment 1.
When pouring in the
bleach, be careful not to
exceed the "max" level
indicated on the central
pivot (see figure).
(for
The use of extra compartment 4 excludes the
possibility of using the pre-wash cycle. In addition,
the bleach cycle cannot be run with programmes 11
(Silk) and Daily 30' (see page 42).

Preparing your laundry

• Divide your laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label.
- the colours: separate coloured garments from
whites.
• Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.
• Do not exceed the weight limits stated below,
which refer to the weight when dry:
Sturdy fabrics: max 5 kg
Synthetic fabrics: max 2.5 kg
Delicate fabrics: max 2 kg
Wool: max 1 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 items

Curtains: fold curtains and place them in a pillow
case or mesh bag. Wash them separately without
exceeding half the appliance load. Use programme
11 which excludes the spin cycle automatically.
Quilted coats and windbreakers: if they are
padded with goose or duck down, they can be
machine-washed. Turn the garments inside out and
load a maximum of 2-3 kg, repeating the rinse cycle
once or twice and using the delicate spin cycle.
Trainers: remove any mud. They can be washed
together with jeans and other tough garments, but
not with whites.
Wool: for best results, use a specific detergent,
taking care not to exceed a load of 1 kg.
