Successful washing results also depend on the correct
dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not
necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in
fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance and
contribute to environmental pollution.
! Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for pre-
washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.
! Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.
! Do not use hand washing detergents; they create too
much foam.

Preparing the laundry

• Divide the laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
• Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to
the weight of the laundry when dry: see "Table of
programmes and wash cycles".
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 wash cycles

Anti Stain: the programme 1 is suitable to heavily-soiled
garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing class
that is higher than the standard class (A class).
When running the programme, do not mix garments of
different colours. We recommend the use of powder
detergent. Pre-treatment with special additives is
recommended if there are obstinate stains.
Anti Stain Quick: this programme is ideal for washing
the most difficult daily stains in 1 hour. It is ideal for mixed
fabrics and coloured garments, caring for your clothes as
it washes.

Open the detergent
A
dispenser drawer and pour
in the detergent or washing
additive, as follows.
compartment 1: Pre-
wash detergent (powder)
Before pouring in the
detergent, make sure that
extra compartment 4 has
been removed.
Whites: use this cycle 3 to wash white clothes. The
programme is designed to maintain the brightness of white
clothes over time. Use powder detergent for best results.
Anti allergy Plus: use programme 7 to remove major
allergens such as pollen, mites, cat's and dog's hair.
Anti allergy Delicate: cycle studied for cotton laundry and
other resistant fabrics to guarantee the removal of pollen and
cat and dog hair already at 40°.
Wool: the wool wash cycle of this machine has been
approved by The Woolmark Company for the washing of
wool garments labelled as "hand wash" provided that the
products are washed according to the instructions on the
garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this
washing machine (M1135)
Delicates: use programme 10 to wash very delicate
garments having strasses or sequins.
To wash silk garments and curtains select the cycle 10 and
set the "Delicate" level from option
We recommend turning the garments inside out before
washing and placing small items into the special bag
for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate
garments for best results.
Eco cycles
The Eco Cycles assure energy saving by eliminating the
need of heating water and it's an advantage both to
your energy bill and the environment! These innovative
Eco programmes (12 Eco Cottons, 13 Eco Synthetics
and 14 Eco Fast 30') are available for various fabrics
and different quantity of garment; they have been
designed to guarantee a high cleaning action even at
low temperature and can be used for lightly to medium
soiled loads. Eco Cycles give the best results thanks
to an intensified wash action, water optimization and
are carried out in the same average time of a standard
cycle. For the best washing results with Eco Cycles we
recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.
Cotton Standard 20°C ideal for lightly soiled cotton
loads. The effective performance levels achieved at cold
temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°,
are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at
varying speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations
before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform
manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which
is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If,
after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly,
the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is
excessively unbalanced, the washing machine performs
the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage
improved load distribution and balance, we recommend
small and large garments are mixed in the load.
