for all types of fabric, or special ones for woollens only. • Do not mix different types of detergents. • To help the environment, do not use more than the recommended quantity of detergent. • Follow the instructions that you find on packaging of the detergents or other treatments without exceeding the indicated maximum level ( ). • Use the recommended detergents for the type and colour of the fabric, the programme temperature and the level of soil. 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. CARE AND CLEANING • If you pre-treat the stains or use a stain remover, 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 find out the water hardness in your area, contact your local water authority. Use the correct quantity of water softener. Follow the instructions that you find on the packaging of the product. WARNING! Refer to Safety chapters. EXTERNAL CLEANING Clean the appliance with mild soap and warm water only. Fully dry all the surfaces. CAUTION! Do not use alcohol, solvents or chemical products. CAUTION! Do not clean the metal surfaces with chlorine-based detergent. 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 check for limescale. Regular detergents already contain water softening agents, but we recommend to run a cycle with an empty drum and a descaling product occasionally. Always follow the instructions that you find on the packaging of the product. MAINTENANCE WASH The repeated and prolonged use of low temperature programmes can cause detergent deposits, fluff residues, bacterial growth inside the drum and the tub. This could generate bad odours and mildew. To eliminate these deposits and clean the inner part of the appliance, run a maintenance wash regularly (at least once a month). Refer to Cleaning the drum chapter. DOOR SEAL WITH DOUBLE LIP TRAP This appliance is designed with a self cleaning draining system, allowing light fluff fibers that fall off the clothes to be drained out with the water, in such a way that there is no need by the customer to access this area for regular maintenance and cleaning. Regularly examine the seal and remove all objects from the inner part. Coins, buttons, other small items forgotten in the pockets of your clothes are deposited during the washing cycle in the special double lip trap in the porthole seal, where they can be conveniently recovered at the end of the cycle. 27
