Damp laundry produces moult and unpleasant smells. Moult stains cannot be removed. As you already know, your washing machine can also wash with cold water. However, it must be remembered that the detergents currently on the market have not been designed for cold washes and that in winter, when the water is very cold, they may not dissolve adequately. We suggest the use of liquid detergents. How much laundry can be washed in one load?Strictly speaking you should always weigh your laundry. The drum will take a maximum of 4, 5 kg of cotton and linen. For synthetics and delicate fabrics, the maximum load is 2, 0 kg and for wool, 1 kg. As weighing can be complicated, we suggest you estimate the weight according to how full the drum is: cotton and linen : drum full not too tighty packed resistant synthetics : no more than 2/3 of the drum delicate fabrics and wool : no more than 1/2 of the drum. Before placing the laundry in the machine: mend all tears, holes and ladders; secure loose buttons and close poppers and zips; do not wash frayed garments - mend hems before washing; remove all small objects from pockets. Nails, pins, clips and similar objects can seriously damage your washing machine and laundry; remove curtain hooks; wash coloured garments and in particular those with non-fast colours separately when washing for the first time. They usually require a temperature of 60C but if they are not excessively dirty, you will have satisfactory results at 40C. [. . . ] Clean the dispenser compartment from time to time to remove remaining detergent. Cleaning the pump filter The machine has got another mecanic filter located on the front part to collect lint and small objects (toothpins, coins, pins, etc. ) inadvertently left in the clothes. It is essential that this filter is cleaned regularly. Frequency of cleaning depends on the type of articles washed (cleaning should be more frequent if the articles have no hem and tend to fray). To clean the filter proceed as follows : Place the water discharge hose in a flat container placed on the ground, to completely empty the machine. fig. [. . . ]
