At the end of the programme, the appliance stops automatically on a position off "I" or on the position rinse hold " ". Never turn the programme selector anticlockwise. 4 Temperature selector It enables to choose the most adapted temperature between cold ("I") and 90°C. Choose the temperature which corresponds to the chosen programme, with the help of the indications or the programme table, according to the fibers and the fastness of the colours. -3- PROGRAMMES CHART Programmes for cotton/linen and for synthetics/delicates/wool Maximum loads : 5 kg (cotton), 2, 5 kg (synthetics), 1 kg (wool).

When the selected programme is over, the washing machine stops automatically. The timer knob stops on the position "I" by a spinning phase (for the cotton and linen programmes) or by a rinse hold (for the synthetics and wool programmes). You can end these programmes with a spinning (by setting the timer on the programme 6) or with a draining (by setting the timer on the programme 12).

Place the laundry in the drum lift up the lid of the machine open the drum with your two hands by pressing the button A and the two flapdoors till they disengage. Study carefully the chart in this booklet explaining the symbols used on clothes labels (see page 6). The following points are particularly important : a line under the bowl means that the garment cannot be washed using programmes for resistant fabrics such as cotton and linen; do not mix coloured garments with whites; anticrease materials like polyester/cotton should be treated as synthetics; non-resistant fabrics like acrylic and most curtain materials should be treated as delicate fabrics; the wool programme is designed specifically for pure new wool. Other types of wool and wool mixtures may shrink or felt if machine-washed. Woollen garments should be spun briefly immediately after washing. Temperatures We suggest that white cotton and linen, if it is not excessively soiled, can be washed at 60° instead of 90°C. There should be no reduction in performance, but there will be an energy saving of approximately 30%. The same applies to a lesser extent to fast coloured garments. They usually require a temperature of 60°C but if they are not excessively dirty, you will have satisfactory results at 40°C. Garments with non-fast colours should not be washed at temperatures above 40°C. If fast and non-fast colours are washed together, they should be treated as non-fast colours and therefore the temperature should not exceed 40°C. Resistant white and coloured synthetics can normally be washed at 60°C but also in this case 40°C is sufficient if the laundry is not excessively dirty. [. . . ] Important : do not use methylated spirit, diluents or similar products. It is advisable, from time to time, to carry out a complete cycle without a washing load, adding a decalcifying product. fig. 1 fig. 2 The detergent dispenser The detergent dispenser is very easy to remove. Just turn the two screws 1/4 of a turn and slide the box towards the top (fig. 1 and fig. 2). Clean the detergent dispenser under running water with a brush or a piece of rag (fig. 3). [. . . ]
