Description of the washing machine

Here are some tips that may help you beforewashing.Sorting your laundrySort items according to:• how soiled they are• colour• materialClothing1. Do up zips and closeVelcro straps so that they

don’t harm fabrics.2. New coloured items may contain excess dye

and should therefore be washed separatelythe first few times.

3. Turn delicate items inside out. This reducesthe risk of burling and fading.

4. Empty pockets and wash them inside out ifpossible.

Laundry labelsLook at the item's laundry label. The table belowshows suitable wash programs for differentmaterials andwash loads. Usingmodernwashingmachines and detergents, for example compactdetergents, you can usually wash at lowertemperatures. It is a good idea to use trial anderror to find out what produces the best results.

Laundry label symbolsExamples of washing instructions and recommended programs. Always follow the washing instructionsfor each garment.

LoadProgramMaterialLaundry labels

1/1 drumColour/White 60 °C to 95 °CCotton, linen, white and light-coloured items.

1/1 drumQuick 60 °CCotton, linen, cotton/polyester. Light anddark-coloured garments.

1/3 drumSynthetics 30 °CSilk and very delicate items

1/3 drumWool/hand wash 30 °C to 40 °CWool and other very delicate garments

Coloured cottonColoured cotton itemswith thewashing instruction60 °C should be washed at 60 °C for the first timein order to remove any excess dye. If you do notdo so, there is a risk that the colour will run. Usedetergent without bleach in order to preserve thecolour of the fabric.

Unbleached linenUnbleached linen fabrics should bewashed at 60°C, using detergent containing nobleachor opticalwhiteners. Heavily-soiled linen can occasionallybe washed at higher temperatures, but not toooften because the heat can destroy the linen’sshine and strength.

Advice and tips before washing

WoolThese fabrics are labelled either machine washor hand wash. The Wool/hand wash program isat least as gentle as washing by hand.Wool is especially sensitive to processes such aswashing.If you do not wish to spin dry, you can squeezeout thewater using terry towels. In this case selectNo spin.To find out how to choose this setting, see the"Washing" chapter. However, most garments canwithstand a short spin. Choose a short spin byselecting a spin speed of 800 rpm or less.Rayon fibres and synthetic fibresMaterials made of rayon fibres, such as viscose,and some synthetic fibres are very delicate andrequiremuch space so as not to crease. Only halffill the drum when washing and choose a spinspeed of 800 rpm or lower.

NOTE!Viscose and acetates are fragile when wet.

Reducing allergic reactionsThe washing machine has a Super Rinse option.Use this for people with sensitive skin, such asthose with allergies and small children.Save time and energyUse the Colour/White program to save time andenergy. This program has a shorter main washthanNormal, but is often sufficient for lightly soiledwashing.

Economy and efficiencyYou can save energy by not using highertemperature programs than necessary.• Select Quick if you just need to freshen up

shirts or exercise clothes, for example. Thiswill save both water and energy.

• If you select a fast spin speed, this reducesenergy consumption when drying in a tumbledryer or drying cabinet.

• Always wash with a full load when using theHeavy, Colour/White and Normal programs.

• Avoid pre-washing. Modern machines anddetergents clean effectively withoutpre-washing. Pre-washing is only necessaryfor heavily soiled washing.

DetergentsEco-labelled detergents are less harmful to theenvironment.Detergent overdosing does not give betterwashing results; it merely causes a greater impacton the environment; can also hinder the washperformance.Try to use less detergent, and increase only if youare not satisfied with the results.Dyeing fabricsIf you want to dye fabrics in the machine, selectthe Colour/White program with the Super Rinseoption. Select temperature according to the dyemanufacturer’s recommendations.Choose a low spin speed if the fabric to be dyedis a blended material such aspolyester/cotton.

NOTE!Add the dye directly to the washing drum – notto the detergent compartment. After dyeing, youshould run the machine empty using the sameprogram. Use the normal amount of detergent.

Care and cleaning

Cleaning the inside of the machineto avoid unpleasant smellsModern detergents often allow clothes to bewashed at low temperatures. This means thatsmall deposits can build up in themachine. These,in turn,may lead to unpleasant smells developing;especially if constantly using cold wash.To avoid this, we recommend running a 95 °Cwash program once a month. When you do this,use a small quantity of detergent. It is notnecessary to put any washing in the machine.

19

Care and cleaning

Rinse holes under the agitatorIf you suspect that objects such as nails or paperclips may have fallen into the wash drum, youshould check the space under the agitator. Suchobjects can rust and cause spots on clothing.Nails and other sharp objects can cause holes infabrics.Do as follows:1. Insert a screwdriver or the like into the hole on

the agitator as illustrated and carefully pry tothe left.

2. Use your other hand to grasp the agitator andpull it towards you.

3. Lift the agitator.4. Remove any objects.5. Place the agitator in themounting hole with the

F-mark towards you. Ensure that all the agitatorfasteners are in their holes in the drum. Pushit in until it catches.

If you have hard waterIf you live in an area with hard water (highlimescale content), a greyish-white coating mayform on the wash drum. To remove this coating,pour approximately 20 gram of citric acid into thewash drum and run any 95 °C program. Repeatif necessary.
