10. HINTS AND TIPS

10.1 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 white and coloured items

together.

• Some coloured items can discolour

with the first wash. We recommend

that you wash them separately for the

first times.

• Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and

items with painted illustrations inside

out.

• Remove hard stains with a special

detergent.

• Wash and pre-treat heavy soil stains

before putting items in drum

• Be careful with the curtains. Remove

the hooks and put the curtains in a

washing bag or pillowcase.

• Do not wash laundry without hems or

with cuts. Use a washing bag to wash

small and/or delicate items (e.g.

underwired bras, belts, tights,

shoelaces, ribbons, 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.

• Avoid washing garments full of long

animal hair or poor quality garments

releasing lots of fluff that could block

the drain circuit and therefore

requiring the Service assistance.

• Button up pillowcases, close zippers,

hooks and poppers. Tie up belts,

cords, shoelaces, ribbons and any

other loose elements.

• Empty the pockets and unfold the

items.

www.electrolux.com14

10.2 Stubborn stains

For some stains, water and detergent is

not sufficient.

We recommend that you pre-treat 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.

10.3 Detergents and additives

• Only use detergents and additives

specially made for washing machines:

– powder detergents for all types of

fabric,

– powder detergents for delicate

fabrics (40 °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.

• Do not mix different types of

detergents.

• To help the environment, do not use

more than the correct quantity of

detergent.

• Obey the instructions that you find on

the on packaging of these products.

• Use the correct products for the type

and colour of the fabric, the

programme temperature and the level

of soil.

• If your appliance does not have the

detergent dispenser with the flap

device, add the liquid detergents with

a dosing ball (supplied by the

detergent's manufacturer).

10.4 Ecological hints

• Set a programme without the prewash

phase to wash laundry with normal

soil.

• Always start a washing programme

with the maximum load of laundry

allowed.

• If necessary, use a stain remover

when you set a programme with a low

temperature.

• To use the correct quantity of

detergent, check the water hardness

of your domestic system. Refer to

"Water hardness".

10.5 Water hardness

If the water hardness in your area is high

or moderate, we recommend that you

use a water softener for washing

machines. In areas where the water

hardness is soft it is not necessary to use

a water softener.

To know the water hardness in your

area, contact your local water authority.

Use the correct quantity of the water

softener. Obey the instructions that you

find on the packaging of the product.

11. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

11.1 External cleaning

Clean the appliance with mild soap and

warm water only. Fully dry all the

surfaces.

CAUTION!

Do not use alcohol, solvents

or chemical products.

CAUTION!

Do not clean the metal

surfaces with chlorine-based

detergent.

ENGLISH 15

11.2 Descaling

If the water hardness in your

area is high or moderate, we

recommend that you use a

water descaling product for

washing machines.

Regularly examine the drum to check for

limescale.

Regular detergents already contain water

softening agents, but we recommend to

run a cycle with an empty drum and a

descaling product occasionally.

Always follow the

instructions that you find on

the packaging of the

product.

11.3 Maintenance wash

The repeated and prolonged use of low

temperature programmes can cause

detergent deposits, fluff residues,

bacterial growth inside the drum and the

tub. This could generate bad odours and

mildew. To eliminate these deposits and

clean the inner part of the appliance, run

a maintenance wash regularly (at least

once a month).

Refer to Cleaning the drum

chapter.

11.4 Cleaning the drum

Regularly examine the drum to prevent

unwanted deposits.

Rust deposits in the drum may occur due

to rusting foreign body in the washing or

tap water containing iron

Clean the drum with special products for

stainless steel.

Always follow the

instructions that you find on

the packaging of the

product.

Do not clean the drum with
