Notes - To ensure the machine operates correctly and is able to achieve the best possible washing performance, we recommend that the maximum load indicated is not exceeded. Special programme Daily 30' (programme 7 for Synthetics) is designed to wash lightly soiled garments in a short amount of time: it only lasts 30 minutes and allows you to save on both time and energy. By setting this programme (7 at 30°C), you can wash different fabrics together (except for woollen and silk items), with a maximum load of 4 kg (see page 8). Press on a programme with a spin cycle, a fixed button and the maximum spin speed allowed for the programme set will be displayed, and the icon flashes.

You should, however, check that the description "machine washable" is present on the label of any items made using pile before washing them in the machine. This option is recommended only for very soiled cotton garments. Unfold all garments completely before placing them inside the washing machine. Divide your laundry according to: - the type of fabric/the symbol on the label. - the colours: separate coloured garments from whites. Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons. [. . . ] Environmentally-friendly technology If you only see a little water through your appliance door, this is because thanks to the latest Hotpoint/ Ariston technology, your washing machine only needs less than half the amount of water to get the best results: an objective reached to respect the environment. Saving on detergent, water, energy and time To avoid wasting resources, the washing machine should be used with a full load. A full load instead of two half loads allows you to save up to 50% on energy. the pre-wash cycle is only necessary on extremely soiled garments. [. . . ]
