6. CONSUMPTION VALUES
At programme start the display shows the duration programme for the maxi-
mum load capacity.
During the washing phase the programme duration is automatically calculated
and can greatly be reduced if the laundry load is lower than the maximum load
capacity (e.g. Cotton 60°C, maximum load capacity 10 kg, the programme
duration exceeds 2 hours; real load 1 kg, the programme duration don’t reach
1 hour).
When the appliance is calculating the real programme duration a dot blinks in
the display.
The data of this table are approximate. Different causes can change the data:
the quantity and type of laundry, the water and ambient temperature.

Longest: Increasing the programme
duration gradually decreases the energy
consumption. The optimized heating
phase saves energy and the longer
duration maintains the same washing
results (specially for normal soil).
Eco Info
The Eco Info stripes (available only in cot-
ton and synthetics programmes) show the
efficiency of the washing programme in
terms of energy saving:
• 6 stripes: the most efficient setting to
optimize the washing programme per-
formance.
• 1 stripe: the less efficient setting.
The number of Eco Info stripes changes if
you modify the duration of the washing
programme (refer to Time Manager) and
the washing temperature. To optimize the
washing programme performance, the
stripe number must increase:
• If you increase the programme dura-
tion, the Eco Info stripes increases. The
increasing the washing programme du-
ration allows a costant performance
that reduces the energy consumption.
• If you decrease the washing tempera-
ture, the Eco Info stripes increases.
Some advices to have the most effi-
cient setting:
•
Set the Time Manager indicators
or
.
• Set the possible lower washing temper-
ature.
• Do not set the Prewash option.

10. HINTS AND TIPS
10.1 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 together white and col-
oured items.
• 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 inside out multilayered fabrics,
wool and items with painted illustra-
tions.
• Remove hard stains.
• Wash with a special detergent heavy
soil stains.
• Be careful with the curtains. Remove
the hooks or put the curtains in a wash-
ing bag or pillowcase.
• Do not wash in the appliance :
– Laundry without hems or with cuts
– Underwired bras.
– Use a washing bag to wash small
items.
• 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.
10.2 Stubborn stains
For some stains, water and detergent is
not sufficient.

We recommend that you remove these
stains before you put the items in the ap-
pliance.
Special stain removers are available. Use
the special stain remover that is applica-
ble to the type of stain and fabric.
10.3 Detergents and additives
• Only use detergents and additives spe-
cially made for washing machines.
• Do not mix different types of deter-
gents.
• To help the environment, do not use
more than the correct quantity of deter-
gent.
• Obey the instructions that you find on
the on packaging of these products.
• Use the correct products for the type
and colour of the fabric, the programme
temperature and the level of soil.
• If your appliance has not the detergent
dispenser with the flap device, add the
liquid detergents with a dosing ball.
10.4 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.
• If necessary, use a stain remover when
you set a programme with a low tem-
perature.
• To use the correct quantity of the deter-
gent, check the water hardness of your
domestic system
10.5 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 soft-
ener. Obey the instructions that you find
on the packaging of the product.
11. CARE AND CLEANING
