ECOLOGICAL HINTS
• Set a programme without the prewash phase to

wash laundry with normal soil.

• Always start a washing programme with the

maximum load of laundry allowed.

• If necessary, use a stain remover when you set a

programme with a low temperature.

• To use the correct quantity of detergent, check

the water hardness of your domestic system.

Refer to "Water hardness".

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 know the water hardness in your area, contact

your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of the water softener.

Obey the instructions that you find on the

packaging of the product.

CARE AND CLEANING

EXTERNAL CLEANING
Clean the appliance with soap and warm water

only. Fully dry all the surfaces.

solvents or chemical products.

DESCALING
If the water hardness in your area is high or

moderate, we recommend that you use a water

descaling product for washing machines.
Regularly examine the drum to prevent limescale

and rust particles.
To remove rust particles use only special products

for washing machines. Do this separately from the

laundry wash.

find on the packaging of the product.

MAINTENANCE WASH
With the low temperature programmes it is possible

that some detergent stays in the drum. Perform a

maintenance wash regularly. To do this:
• Remove all laundry from the drum.

temperature with a small quantity of detergent.

using ammonia cream cleanser agent without

scratching the seal surface,

Always obey the instructions that you

find on the packaging of the product.
