• Button up pillowcases, close zippers, hooks and poppers. Tie up belts.
• Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and items with printed illustrations inside out
• Pre-treat tough stains. With adequate pretreatment, stains and limited soiling can be removed; the laundry can then be washed at a lower temperature. Do not spray stain remover on garments near the appliance as it is corrosive to the plastic parts.
• Wash heavy soil stains with a special detergent.
• Be careful with curtains. Remove the hooks and put the curtains in a washing bag or pillowcase.
• Use a washing bag to wash small and/or delicate items (e.g. underwired bras, belts, tights, etc. ).
• Avoid washing garments full of long animal hair or poor quality garments releasing lots of fluff that could block the drain circuit and therefore requiring the Service assistance.
• Powder detergents for all types of fabric, excluding delicate. Prefer powder detergents containing bleach for whites and laundry sanitization. At temperature higher than 60 °C the use of powder detergent is recommended.
• Liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60 °C max) for all types of fabric, or special ones for woollens only.
