Detergents and laundry

Detergent

The type and quantity of detergent used depends on

the type of fabric (cotton, wool, silk...), its colour, the

temperature of the wash, the level of soiling and the

hardness  of  the  water  in  the  area.
Measuring out the detergent carefully will avoid

accidental spills and help to protect the environment:

although  they  may  be  biodegradable,  detergents

contain  elements  that  alter  the  balance  of  nature.
We  recommend:

• the use of powder detergents for white cotton

garments  and  for  pre-wash  phases;

• the use of liquid detergents for delicate cotton

garments and for all programmes which run at a

low  temperature;

• the use of liquid detergents for wool and silk.

 

Do  not  use  detergents  when  washing  garments  by

hand,  because  they  create  too  much  foam.
The  detergent  must  be  measured  out  into  the

relevant  compartment,  or  into  the  detergent  dosing

ball which will be placed directly into the drum of the

machine.  In  this  case  the  Cotton  cycle  with  pre-wash

phase  may  not  be  selected.

Preparing the laundry

 Unfold all items of laundry before placing them in the

machine.

• Divide the laundry according to type of material (the

symbol on the garment label) and colour, making

sure  that  whites  are  separated  from  coloured

garments.

• Empty all pockets and check for loose buttons.

• Do not exceed the values indicated in the “

Table of

Programmes

”,  which  refer  to  the  weight  of  the

laundry  items  when  they  are  dry.

How much does your laundry weigh?

1  sheet

400 - 500 g

1 pillowcase

150 - 200 g

1  tablecloth

400 - 500 g

1 bathrobe

900 - 1200 g

1 towel

150 - 250 g

1 pair of jeans

400 - 500 g

1 shirt

150 - 200 g

Washing advice

Shirts:

 use a suitable programme to wash shirts

made from different fabrics and in different colours.

This  will  guarantee  that  these  garments  are  looked

after  properly.

Silk:

 use the relevant programme designed for all silk

garments.  We  recommend  the  use  of  a  special

detergent  for  delicate  garments.

Curtains:

 

fold curtains and place them in a pillow

case  or  mesh  bag.  Use  the  "Silk"  programme.

Wool:

 Hotpoint/Ariston is the only washer-dryer  to

have  obtained  the  prestigious  Woolmark  Platinum

Care mark of recognition (M.0508) from The

Woolmark  Company,  which  certifies  the  machine

washing of all woollen garments, even those whose

label states “hand wash only” 

. The “Wool”

programme  therefore  offers  you  complete  peace  of

mind  when  washing  all  woollen  garments,  with  great

performance  guaranteed  every  time.

Bathroom  laundry  and  bedlinen:

  this  washer-

dryer can be used to wash any domestic laundry in a

single  cycle  called  “BED&BATH  7  DAYS”  that

optimises the use of fabric softener while saving both

time  and  electricity.  We  recommend  that  you  use  a

powder  detergent.

Stubborn stains:

 stubborn stains should be treated

with solid soap before the garment is washed (use the

Cotton  programme  with  pre-wash  phase).

Load-balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations

and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the

drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly

faster  than  the  normal  washing  speed.  If,  after  several

attempts, the load is still not evenly distributed, the

machine spins at a lower speed than the set

frequency.

If  the  load  is  excessively  unbalanced,  the  washer-

dryer continues at distribution speed only instead of

the full spin speed.

In order to achieve better load distribution and

balance,  we  recommend  that  large  and  small

garments are mixed when placing the laundry in the

machine.
