HINTS AND TIPS
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.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and
poppers. Tie up belts.
• 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, 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.
• Empty the pockets and unfold the items.
