Detergents and laundry

Detergent dispenser drawer

Successful washing results also depend on the correct 

dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not 

necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in 

fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance and 

contribute to environmental pollution.

Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for pre-

washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.

Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.

! Do not use hand washing detergents; they create too 

much foam. 

Open the detergent 

dispenser drawer and pour 

in the detergent or washing 

additive, as follows.
! Do not pour detergent into 

the middle compartment (*).

compartment 1: 

Detergent for the wash 

cycle (powder or liquid)

If liquid detergent is used, 

it is recommended that the 

removable plastic partition A (supplied) be used for proper 

dosage. If powder detergent is used, place the partition 

into slot B.

compartment 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)

The fabric softener should not overflow the grid. 

extra compartment 3: Bleach
Preparing the laundry

• Dividethelaundryaccordingto:

  - the type of fabric/the symbol on the label

  - the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.

• Emptyallgarmentpocketsandcheckthebuttons.

• Donotexceedthelistedvalues,whichreferto

the weight of the laundry when dry: see “Table of 

programmes and wash cycles”.

How much does your laundry weigh?

  1 sheet 400-500 g

  1 pillow case 150-200 g

  1 tablecloth 400-500 g

  1 bathrobe 900-1,200 g

  1 towel 150-250 g
Special wash cycles

Daily Wash & Dry: use programme 1 to wash and dry 

mixed garments (cotton and synthetics). This cycle may be 

used to wash and dry loads of up to 3 kg; we recommend 

the use of liquid detergent. 

The use of the steam in this programme is optimised to 

reduce the formation of creases on garments, making 

them easier to iron.

Shirts Wash & Dry: use programme 2 to wash and dry 

shirts and T-shirts in dif erent fabrics and colours to ensure 

maximum care. This cycle may be used to wash and dry loads 

of up to 2 kg. To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent 

and pre-treat cuf s, col ars and stains. The use of the steam 

in this programme is optimised to reduce the formation of 

creases on garments, making them easier to iron.

Pre Iron: use this programme immediately before ironing; 

max. 1.5 kg load. The use of the steam in this programme is 

optimised to reduce the formation of creases on garments, 

making them easier to iron.

Steam Refresh: for refreshing garments, neutralised 

unpleasant odours and relaxing the fibres by delivering 

steam into the drum. The garments will be damp at the 

end of the cycle. 

Anti-Stain Quick: this programme is ideal for washing the 

most dif icult daily stains in 1 hour. It is ideal for mixed fabrics 

and coloured garments, caring for your clothes as it washes.

If the drying function is selected, a drying cycle 

automatically activates at the end of the wash cycle that 

resembles open-air drying, with the added advantages 

of preserving garments from yellowing due to sunlight 

exposure and preventing loss of whiteness caused by the 

possible presence of dust in the air. Dryness level “A2” 

recommended.

Anti-Stain: the programme is suitable to heavily-soiled 

garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing class 

that is higher than the standard class (A class).  

When running the programme, do not mix garments of 

different colours. We recommend the use of powder 

detergent. Pre-treatment with special additives is 

recommended if there are obstinate stains.

If the drying function is selected, a drying cycle 

automatically activates at the end of the wash cycle that 

resembles open-air drying, with the added advantages 

of preserving garments from yellowing due to sunlight 

exposure and preventing loss of whiteness caused by the 

possible presence of dust in the air. Dryness level “A2” 

recommended.

Multicolor: for washing coloured cotton garments. This 

programme is optimised to keep colours bright even after 

repeated washing. 

Ultradelicates: use programme 11 to wash very delicate 

garments having strasses or sequins. 

We recommend turning the garments inside out before 

washing and placing small items into the special bag 

for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate 

garments for best results. 

When selecting an exclusively time-based drying function, 

a drying cycle is performed at the end of the wash cycle 

that is particularly delicate, thanks to light handling and 

appropriate temperature control of the water jet.

The recommended durations are:

1 kg of synthetic garments --> 150 min

1 kg of synthetic and cotton garments --> 180 min

1 kg of cotton garments --> 180 min

The degree of dryness depends on the load and fabric 

composition.
To wash silk garments and curtains select the cycle 11 

and set the “Delicate” level from option 

.

Wool - Woolmark Apparel Care - Green:

the wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved 

by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool 

garments labelled as “hand wash” provided that the 

products are washed according to the instructions on the 

garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this 

washer-dryer. (M1135) 

Sport: for washing lightly soiled sports clothing (tracksuits, 

shorts, towels, etc.); for best results, we recommend not 

exceeding the maximum load indicated in the “Table of 

programmes and wash cycles”. We recommend using 

liquid detergent, and adding the amount suitable for a half-

load.
Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations 

before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform 

manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which 

is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If, 

after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, 

the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is 

excessively unbalanced, the washer-dryer performs the 

distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage 

improved load distribution and balance, we recommend 

small and large garments are mixed in the load.
