shoelaces, ribbons, etc. ).
A very small load can cause balance
problems with the spin phase leading to
excessive vibration. If this occurs:
a. interrupt the programme and open
the door (refer to "Daily Use"
chapter);
b. manually redistribute the load so
that the items are spaced evenly
around the tub;
c. press the Départ/Pause button.
The spin phase continues.
Button up pillowcases, close zippers,
hooks and poppers. Tie up belts, cords,
shoelaces, ribbons and any other loose
elements.
Empty pockets and unfold the items.
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.
Detergents and other treatments
Only use detergents and other
treatments specially made for washing
machines:
powder detergents for all types of
fabric, excluding delicate. Prefer
powder detergents containing
bleach for whites and laundry
sanitization
liquid detergents, preferably for low
temperature wash programmes (60
°C max) for all types of fabric, or
special ones for woollens only.
Do not mix different types of
detergents.
To help the environment, do not use
more than the recommended quantity
of detergent.
Follow the instructions that you find on
packaging of the detergents or other
treatments without exceeding the
indicated maximum level ( ).
Use the recommended detergents for
the type and colour of the fabric, the
programme temperature and the level
of soil.

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 you pre-treat the stains or use a stain
remover, 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".
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 find out the water hardness in your
area, contact your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of water softener.
Follow the instructions that you find on the
packaging of the product.
CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING! Refer to Safety
chapters.
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.
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.
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"
paragraph.
Door seal with double lip trap
This appliance is designed with a self
cleaning draining system, allowing light
fluff fibers that fall off the clothes to be
drained out with the water, in such a way
that there is no need by the customer to
access this area for regular maintenance
and cleaning.
