[. . . ] Controlled consumption The machine automatically adjusts the amount of water used in the wash to the size of the load, giving optimum use of water, energy and detergent. Double-action wash Clothes are soaked in water and detergent, water then “rains” steadily through the clothes. Safety, a good habit to get into CAUTION Please read the instructions in this handbook carefully, as they contain important information about safe installation, operating and servicing. This washer is manufactured in compliance with international safety regulations designed to safeguard the consumer. [. . . ] Fill the container and place in the drum with the laundry, following the instructions shown on the detergent packet. Do not use hand washing detergents since these produce very heavy suds. When using cold wash cycles, remember to reduce the detergent dosage. 3 1 2 Starting up your washer Run the first wash without laundry using programme 2 at 90°C. Load your laundry in the washer, add the detergent and fabric softener and remember to: - shut the door properly - plug the washer in at the mains - turn on the water supply - check that button D is not pressed in (position O) Selecting the programme The table on pages 5 will help you choose the right programme. Turn dial A to the programme number you have chosen. Set the temperature on dial B and, if necessary, press functions buttons E, F; set ON/OFF button D to position I (ON). To turn off the washer press the ON-OFF button D and wait approximately 3 minutes before opening the door. Once you have removed your clean laundry from the washer, remember to leave the door open or at least ajar (this will prevent the formation of an unpleasant odour) and shut off the water supply.

The prewash cycle should in fact be used only for heavily soiled, cotton fabrics. - Set the right temperature: use temperatures above 60°C only for very stubborn dirt but remember that modern detergents are very efficient even at low temperatures. - Use the correct quantities of detergent: do not use too much detergent; remember that not only will this make rinsing more difficult but also pollutes the enviroment. - Use the economy buttons: when washing small laundry loads use the Economy button if available on your washer and reduce the detergent quantity. - Your washer features automatic consumption control, this means that you can wash laundry loads from 1 - 5 kg with considerable savings. Your washer will use just the right amount of water and electricity. All you need to do is dose the detergent. - Fabric softeners: always use a softener; not only do these perfume and soften your laundry, they also make it easy to iron, saving you time. General maintenance After every wash Leave the door open and wipe the door gasket dry after each wash so that damp or odours do not form.
