Refer to Safety chapters.11.1  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 coloured items.
• Some coloured items can discolour with the first wash. We recommendthat you wash them separately for the

illustrations.
• 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
washing bag or pillowcase.
• Do not wash in the appliance 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.
11.2  Stubborn stains

not sufficient.
We recommend that you remove these
stains before you put the items in the

applicable to the type of stain and fabric.
