Degrees of water hardness
Water hardness is classified in so-called
“degrees” of hardness. Information on
hardness of the water in your area can be
obtained from the relevant water supply
company, or from your local authority.

Soft 0-7 0-15
Medium 8-14 16-25
Hard 15-21 26-37
Very hard > 21 > 37
A water softener must be added
when water has a medium-high
degree of hardness. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions. The
quantity of detergent can then
always be adjusted (reduced) to
degree of hardness soft.
Drying hints
Preparing the drying cycle
As a dryer, the appliance works on the
condensation principle.
Therefore, the water tap must be open and
the drain hose must drain water into a sink
or into the drain pipe, even during the
drying cycle.
Before starting the drying
programme, reduce the loads of
washed laundry, in order to
obtain good performances.
Laundry not suitable for drying
Particularly delicate items such as syn-
thetic curtains, woollen and silk,
garments with metal inserts, nylon
stockings, bulky garments such as
anoraks, bed covers, quilts, sleeping
bags and duvets must not be machine
dried.
Avoid drying dark clothes with light
coloured fluffy items such as towels as
these can attract the fluff.
Remove the laundry when the appliance
has finished drying.
To avoid a static charge when drying is
completed, use either a fabric softener
when you are washing the laundry or a
fabric conditioner specifically for tumble
dryers.
Garments padded with foam-rubber or
materials similar to foam-rubber must
not be machine dried; they represent a
fire hazard.
Also, fabrics containing residue of setting
lotions or hair sprays, nail solvents or
similar solutions must not be machine
dried in order to avoid the formation of
harmful vapours.
The detergent and any additives must be
placed in the appropriate compartments of
the dispenser drawer before starting the
wash programme.
If using liquid detergents, a programme
without prewash must be selected. Your
appliance incorporates a re-circulation
system which allows an optimal use of the
concentrated detergent.
Follow the product manufacturer’s
recommendations on quantities to use and
do not exceed the «MAX» mark in the
detergent dispenser drawer.
