11. HINTS AND TIPS
11.1 The laundry load
• Divide the laundry in: white, coloured,
synthetics, delicates and wool.
• Obey the washing instructions that
are on the laundry care labels.
• Do not wash white and coloured items
together.
• Some coloured items can discolour
with the first wash. We recommend
that you wash them separately for the
first times.
• Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and
items with painted illustrations inside
out.
• Wash and pre-treat heavy soil stains
with a suitable detergent before
putting in drum.
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove
the hooks and put the curtains in a
washing bag or pillowcase.
• Do not wash laundry without hems or
with cuts. Use a washing bag to wash
small and/or delicate items (e.g.
underwired bras, belts, tights,
shoelaces, ribbons, etc. ).
• A very small load can cause balance
problems with the spin phase leading
to excessive vibration. If this occurs:
- interrupt the programme and open
the door (refer to "Daily Use" chapter);
-manually redistribute the load so that
the items are spaced evenly around
the tub;
-press the Start/Pause button. The
spin phase continues.
• Avoid washing garments full of long
animal hair or poor quality garments
releasing lots of fluff that could block
the drain circuit and therefore
requiring the Service assistance.
• Button up pillowcases, close zippers,
hooks and poppers. Tie up belts,
cords, shoelaces, ribbons and any
other loose elements.
• Empty the pockets and unfold the
items.
