[. . . ] 13 As the Jetsystem is flexible and adjusts water intake according to wash load size it is not possible to give you exact recommandations as to the amount of detergent that should be used for any one wash. Therefore we recommend that you use approximately 1/3 less than the detergent manufacturer recommends on the packet or bottle, making the appropriate allowances for soft or hard water, and light or heavy soilage of clothes. If you have judged the amount correctly you should expect to see a soft sudsy liquid during the wash. It is not necessary to have a head of lather on the water. Which detergent?. . . . To ensure you obtain the best wash results from your appliance, it is important to use the right detergent in your everyday wash, and only detergents recommended for use in automatic machines. To maintain the appearance of your clothes and household textiles and to make them last longer you should use different types of detergent for different washes, whether for whites, colours or delicates. And in which form? Not only are there different types of detergent, but they are also available in different forms. Whether you chose a powder or liquid in traditional or compact form is your own personal choice. TRADITIONAL POWDERS Pour the powder directly into the dispenser drawer. Do not sprinkle powder onto clothes in the machine drum. WHITES We recommend the Ariel product range which is biological and designed to provide excellent cleaning and stain removal even at low temperatures. TRADITIONAL LIQUIDS Liquid can be placed in the main wash compartment of the detergent drawer marked with the symbol , start the machine immediately upon placing the detergent in the dispenser drawer. Alternatively the detergent is measured into the specially designed dosing device* which should be placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the machine drum. NON BIOLOGICAL If you prefer to use a non biological detergent, which does not contain enzymes we recommend Fairy. Fairy provides good cleaning and stain removal. COMPACT POWDERS AND LIQUIDS Compact detergents (or concentrates as they are also known) are available in liquid or powder form, and generally require a smaller dosage. Follow the manufacturer's instructions to ensure the most economical usage. Pour the detergent directly into the dispenser drawer, or alternatively measure the detergent into the specially designed dosing device* which should be placed on top of the laundry, and at the back of the machine drum. sheets, tablecloths, household linen 60 40 30 SPIN SPEED RINSE HOLD PREWASH SUPER RINSE QUICK SPIN SPEED RINSE HOLD PREWASH SUPER RINSE QUICK 6 kg Coloured cotton: e. g. shirts, blouses, underwear, towels, household linen 60 50 40 Main wash at Cottons 60°-40°-30°C 60°-40°-30°C 3 rinses Long spin 0. 95 44 2. 10 30 2. 5 kg Synthetic fabrics and blends: e. g. shirts, blouses, underwear 40 Synthetics 60°-50°-40°30°C Main wash at 60°-50°-40°30°C 3 rinses Short spin Main wash at 40°-30°C 3 rinses Short spin SPIN SPEED RINSE HOLD PREWASH SUPER RINSE QUICK SPIN SPEED RINSE HOLD PREWASH SUPER RINSE QUICK 0. 85 60 1. 27 30 2. 5 kg Delicate fabrics: e. g. acrylic fabrics, viscose, polyester, synthetic blends 40 30 Delicates 40°-30°C 0. 55 53 1. 04 2 kg Wool Wool 40°-30°C Main wash at 40°-30°C 3 rinses Short spin Main wash at 40°-30°C 3 rinses Short spin SPIN SPEED RINSE HOLD 0. 35 52 53 2 kg Hand wash 40°-30°C SPIN SPEED RINSE HOLD 0. 2 60 55 The "coloured cotton programme" at 60°C with a wash load of 5 kg is the reference programme for the data entered in the energy label, in compliance with EEC 92/75 standards. * This data is given purely as an indication: the consumption values may vary in relation to the quantity and type of laundry, the temperature of the water supply and the ambient temperature. The data refers to the highest temperature provided for each programme. For cotton it refers to a wash load of 5 kg. 16 Maintenance and Cleaning Before any maintenance or cleaning is carried out you must DISCONNECT the appliance from the electricity supply. Cleaning the drawer recess Having removed the drawer, use a small brush to clean the recess, ensuring that all washing powder residue is removed from the upper and lower part of the recess. Replace the drawer and run the rinse programme without any clothes in the drum. Descaling The water we use normally contains lime. It is a good idea to periodically use a water softening powder in the machine. Do this separately from any laundry washing, and according to the softening powder manufacturer's instructions. This will help to prevent the formation of lime deposits. After each wash Leave the door open for a while. [. . . ] 90 cm.
