HINTS AND TIPS
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.
•
Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and
poppers. Tie up belts.
•
Empty the pockets and unfold the items.
•
Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and items with
painted illustrations inside out.
•
Remove hard stains.
•
Wash heavy soil stains with a special detergent.
•
Be careful with the curtains. Remove the hooks
or 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, etc. ).
•
A very small load can cause balance problems
with the spin phase. If this occurs, adjust
manually the items in the tub and start the spin
phase again.

For some stains, water and detergent is not
sufficient.
We recommend that you pre-treat these stains
before you put the items in the appliance.
