Hints and Tips

Sort your laundry according to
Type of fabric/care label (cotton, mixed fibres, synthetics, wool,
handwash items).
Colour (separate coloured and white items, wash new coloured
items separately).
Delicates (wash small items – like nylon stockings – and items
with hooks – like bras – in a cloth bag or pillow case with zip).
Empty all pockets
Objects like coins or lighters can damage your laundry as well as
the drum.
Follow the dosage recommendation / additives
It optimizes the cleaning result, it avoids irritating residues
of surplus detergent 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.
WASH SYMBOLS ON GARMENT LABELS
The value given in the tub symbol is the maximum temperature
possible for washing the garment.
Normal mechanical action

SAVING ENERGY AND PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
• Keeping within the load limits indicated in the programme
chart will optimise energy, water and detergent
consumption and reduce washing times.
• Do not exceed the detergent quantities recommended by
the detergent manufacturer.
• Save energy by using a 60°C instead of a 90°C wash
programme, or by using a 40°C instead of a 60°C wash
programme. We recommend using the Eco 40-60
programme for cotton garments, which is longer but uses
less energy.
• To save energy and time when washing and drying, select
highest spin speed available for the programme to reduce
the residual water remaining in the garments at the end of
the wash cycle.
