Washing & Timed Drying
To have a good drying the appliance does not
let you set a too low spin speed for the items to
be washed and dried.
1. Press the button Tiempo/Tempo de sec. to
set the drying time value.
After some seconds the display shows the final
time value, that is the total duration of the
washing and drying cycles (washing + drying +
anti-crease + cooling phases).
If you set only 10 minutes of drying
after washing, the appliance
calculates also the duration of the
anti-crease and the cooling phases.
2. Press Inicio/Pausa button to start the
programme.
The indicator
comes on. The door is
locked. The display shows regularly a new time
value.
End of the programme
The appliance stops automatically. The acoustic
signals operate (if they are active).
For more information see 'At the end of the
drying programme " of the previous chapter.
1. Turn the selector dial to the position
switch the machine off.
Hints and tips
The laundry load
• Divide the laundry in: white, coloured,
synthetics, delicates and wool.
• Obey the washing instructions that are on
the laundry care labels.
• Do not wash together white and coloured
items.
• Some coloured items can discolour with the
first wash. We recommend that you wash
them separately for the first times.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks
and poppers. Tie up belts.
• Empty the pockets and unfold the items.
• Turn inside out multilayered fabrics, wool
and items with painted illustrations.
• Remove hard stains.
• Wash with a special detergent heavy soil
stains.
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove the
hooks or put the curtains in a washing bag
or pillowcase.

2. Remove the laundry from the appliance.
Make sure that the drum is empty.
3. Keep the door ajar, to prevent mildew and
odours.
4. Close the water tap.
Fluff in the fabrics
During the washing and/or drying phase, some
types of fabric, (sponge, sweatshirt) could
release fluff.
The released fluff could stick to the fabrics
during the next cycle.
This inconvenient increases with technical
fabrics.
To prevent the fluff in your laundry, we
recommend that you:
• To do not wash dark fabrics after you
washed and dried light coloured fabrics
(new sponge, sweatshirt ) and the contrary.
• To dry this type of fabrics at open air when
they are washed the first time.
• To clean the drain filter.
• After the drying phase, clean the empty
drum, the gasket and the door with a wet
cloth.
to
• Do not wash in the appliance laundry without
hems or with cuts. Use a washing bag to
wash small and/or delicate items (e.g.
underwired bras, belts, tights, etc. ).
• A very small load can cause balance
problems with the spin phase. If this occurs,
adjust manually the items in the tub and start
the spin phase again.
Stubborn stains
For some stains, water and detergent is not
sufficient.
We recommend that you remove these stains
before you put the items in the appliance.
Special stain removers are available. Use the
special stain remover that is applicable to the
type of stain and fabric.
