[. . . ] · The safety of Your appliance complies with the industry standards and with legal requirements on the safety of appliances. However, as manufacturers, we feel it is our duty to provide the following safety notes. · It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can get to know the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings.

Select the required options by pressing the relevant buttons. If possible, do not select a spin speed lower than that proposed by the appliance to avoid too long a drying time therefore saving energy. In any case the reduction of the spin speed is only possible after selecting drying. The lowest values you can select are the following: ­ 900 r. p. m. for cottons and synthetic with electronic drying; ­ 900 r. p. m.

Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, methylated spirits or benzine, then rub with detergent paste. Detergents and additives Good washing results also depend on the choice of detergent and use of the correct quantities to avoid waste and protect the environment. Although biodegradable, detergents contain substances which, in large quantities, can upset the delicate balance of nature. The choice of detergent will depend on the type of fabric (delicates, woollens, cottons, etc. ), the colour, washing temperature and degree of soiling. All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance: · powder detergents for all types of fabric · powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°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. The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme. If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected. Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which allows an optimal use of the concentrated detergent.
