Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten the fabric first with acetone
acid; treat any residual marks on white fabrics with bleach and then rinse thoroughly.
Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with
detergent paste.
Detergents and additives
Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent and use of the correct quan-
tities to avoid waste and protect the environment.
Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which, in large quantities, can up-
set the delicate balance of nature.
The choice of detergent will depend on the type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc.),
the colour, washing temperature and degree of soiling.
All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance:
• powder detergents for all types of fabric
• powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C max) and woollens
• liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60°C max) for all
types of fabric, or special for woollens only.
The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the
dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected.
Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which allows an optimal use of the
concentrated detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer's recommendations on quantities to use and do not
exceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent dispenser drawer .
Degrees of water hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called "degrees" of hardness. Information on hardness of
the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from
your local authority.
A water softener must be added when water has a medium-high degree of hardness (from
degree of hardness II). Follow the manufacturer's instructions. The quantity of detergent
can then always be adjusted to degree of hardness I (= soft).
