Active Care
The detergent, premixed with water, creates an unique emulsion able
to better penetrate the fibers of the garments, cleaning stains at even
low temperatures, preserving both colors and fabrics. These results are
obtained also due to the multiple different specific movements of the
drum which best take care of the garments.
Powder and liquid detergents are recommended for this option.

After pushing the button for the 1st time, option Rapid is selected and the
cycle duration will be reduced.
Otherwise after pushing for the 2nd time, option Green is selected

hand-washed). Colour (separate coloured garments from whites, wash new
coloured garments separately). Delicates (small garments – such as nylon
stockings – and items with hooks – such as bras: insert them in a fabric bag).

Objects such as coins or lighters can damage the washing machine and
the drum. Check all buttons.
Follow the dosage recommendation / additives

button,
in your laundry and it saves money by avoiding waste of surplus detergent
Use low temperature and longer duration
The most efficient programmes in terms of energy consumption are
generally those that perform at lower temperatures and longer duration.
Observe the load sizes
Load your washing machine up to the capacity indicated in the
"PROGRAMME CHART" table to save water and energy.
Noise and remaining moisture content
They are influenced by the spinning speed: the higher the spinning speed in the
spinning phase, the higher the noise and the lower the remaining moisture content.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
For any cleaning and maintenance, switch off and unplug the washing machine.
Do not use flammable fluids to clean the washing machine.
Clean and maintain your washing machine periodically (at least 4 times per year).
Cutting off the water and electricity supplies
Close the water tap after every wash. This will limit wear on the hydraulic
system inside the washing machine and help to prevent leaks.
Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it and during all
maintenance work.
Cleaning the washing machine
The outer parts and rubber components of the appliance can be cleaned using
a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
Cleaning the detergent dispenser drawer
Remove the dispenser drawer by lifting and pulling it outwards. Wash it
under running water; this procedure should be effected regularly.
Caring for the door and drum
Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to prevent unpleasant odours
from forming.
Cleaning the pump
The washing machine is fitted with a self-cleaning pump that does not require
any maintenance. Small items (such as coins or buttons) may sometimes fall
into the protective pre-chamber situated at the base of the pump.
! Make sure that the wash cycle has ended and unplug the appliance.
To access the pre-chamber:
1. remove the covering panel on the front side of the machine by inserting
a screwdriver in the centre and sides of the panel and using it as a lever;
2. place a low and wide container under the water filter in order to collect
the residual water.
3. loosen the drainage pump cover by turning it anti-clockwise: it is
normal for some water to leak out;
4. clean the inside thoroughly;
5. screw the cover back on;
6. put the panel back in place, making sure the hooks slot in place before
pushing the panel onto the appliance.
Checking the water inlet hose
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If it is cracked or broken, it
must be replaced: during wash cycles, the high pressure of the water
could suddenly split the hose open.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.
