• Use only detergents and other

treatments specially made for

washing machines. First, follow these

generic rules:

– powder detergents (also tablets

and single-dose detergents) for all

types of fabric, excluding delicate.

Prefer powder detergents

containing bleach for whites and

laundry sanitization,

– liquid detergents (also single-dose

detergents) , preferably for low

temperature wash programmes

(60 °C max) for all types of fabric,

or special ones for woollens only.

• The choice and quantity of detergent

will depend on: type of fabric

(delicates, woollens, cottons, etc), the

colour of clothes, size of the load,

degree of soiling, wash temperature

and hardness of the water used.

• Follow the instructions that you find

on packaging of the detergents or

other treatments without exceeding

the indicated maximum level ( ).

• Do not mix different types of

detergents.

• Use less detergent if:

– you are washing a small load,

– the laundry is lightly soiled,

– there is large amounts of foam

during washing.

• When using detergent tabs or pods,

always put them inside the drum, not

in the detergent dispenser and follow

the manufacturer's

recommendations .

Insufficient detergent may cause:

• unsatisfactory washing results,

• the wash load to turn grey,

• greasy clothes,

• mould in the appliance.

Excessive detergent may cause:

• sudsing,

• reduced washing effect,

• inadequate rinsing,

• a greater impact for the environment.

17.4 Ecological hints

To save water, energy and to help

protect the environment, we recommend

that you follow these tips:

•Normally soiled laundry may be

washed without prewash in order to

save detergent, water and time (the

environment is protected too!).

• Loading the appliance to the

maximum capacity indicated for

each programmes helps to reduce

energy and water consumption.

• With adequate pre-treatment, stains

and limited soiling can be removed;

the laundry can then be washed at a

lower temperature.

• To use the correct quantity of

detergent, refer to the quantity

suggested by the detergent producer

and check the water hardness of you

domestic system. Refer to 'Water

hardness'.

• Set the maximum possible spin

speed for the selected programme for

saving energy during drying phase!

17.5 Water hardness

If the water hardness in your area is high

or moderate, we recommend that you

use a water softener for washing

machines. In areas where the water

hardness is soft it is not necessary to use

a water softener.

To find out the water hardness in your

area, contact your local water authority.

Use the correct quantity of water

softener. Follow the instructions that you

find on the packaging of the product.

17.6 Prepare the drying cycle

• Open the water tap.

• Check if the drain hose is connected

properly. Refer to installation chapter

for more information.

• For the maximum laundry load of the

drying programmes, refer to the

drying programmes table.

drying

this laundry:
