All commonly available washing machine detergents may be used in this appliance:

• powder detergents for all types of fabric

• powder detergents for delicate fabrics (60°C max) and woollens

• liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60°C max) for all

types of fabric, or special for woollens only.

The detergent and any additives must be placed in the appropriate compartments of the

dispenser drawer before starting the wash programme.

If using liquid detergents, a programme without prewash must be selected.

Your appliance incorporates a recirculation system which allows an optimal use of the con-

centrated detergent.

Follow the product manufacturer’s recommendations on quantities to use and do not ex-

ceed the «MAX» mark in the detergent dispenser drawer.

Degrees of water hardness

Water hardness is classified in so-called “degrees” of hardness. Information on hardness of

the water in your area can be obtained from the relevant water supply company, or from

your local authority.

A water softener must be added when water has a medium-high degree of hardness (from

degree of hardness II). Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The quantity of detergent

can then always be adjusted to degree of hardness I (= soft).

DRYING HINTS

Preparing the drying cycle

As a dryer, the appliance works on the condensation principle.

Therefore, the water tap must be open and the drain hose must drain water into a sink

or into the drain pipe, even during the drying cycle.

Attention!

Before starting the drying programme, reduce the loads of washed laundry, in order to ob-

tain good performances.

Laundry not suitable for drying

• Particularly delicate items such as synthetic curtains, woollen and silk, garments with

metal inserts, nylon stockings, bulky garments such as anoraks, bed covers, quilts, sleep-

ing bags and duvets must not be machine dried.
