If a programme or an option that ends with

water left in the tub has been selected, the

light 3.3 illuminates but the door remains

locked to indicate that the water must be

emptied out before opening the door.

During this time the drum continues to turn

at regular intervals until water draining.

Follow the below instructions to empty out

the water:

1. Turn the programme selector dial to O.

2. Select the draining or spinning pro-

gramme.

3. Reduce the spin speed if needed, by

pressing the button 3.

4. Press button 4.

At the end of the programme, the door can

be now opened. Turn the programme selec-

tor dial to O to switch the appliance off.

Remove the laundry from the drum and

carefully check that the drum is empty. If

you do not intend to carry out another

wash, close the water tap. Leave the door

open to prevent any mildew and unpleas-

ant smells.

Stand by: once the programme has

finished the energy saving system is

enabled with the pilot lights switched on. By

pressing any button the appliance will come

out of the energy saving status.

Helpful hints and tips

Sorting out the laundry

Follow the wash code symbols on each gar-

ment label and the manufacturer’s washing

instructions. Sort the laundry as follows:

whites, coloureds, synthetics, delicates,

woollens.

Removing stains

Stubborn stains may not be removed by just

water and detergent. It is therefore advisa-

ble to treat them prior to washing.

Blood: treat fresh stains with cold water. For

dried stains, soak overnight in water with a

stain remover product then rub in the soap

and water.

Oil based paint: moisten with benzine stain

remover, lay the garment on a soft cloth

and dab the stain; treat several times.

Dried grease stains: moisten with turpen-

tine, lay the garment on a soft surface and

dab the stain with the fingertips and a cot-

ton cloth.

Rust: oxalic acid dissolved in hot water or a

rust removing product used cold. Be careful

with rust stains which are not recent since

the cellulose structure will already have

been damaged and the fabric tends to

hole.

Mould stains: treat with bleach, rinse well

(white cottons and fast coloureds only).

Grass: soap lightly and treat with bleach

(white cottons and fast coloureds only).

Ball point pen and glue: moisten with ace-

tone

1)

, lay the garment on a soft cloth and

dab the stain.

Lipstick: moisten with acetone as above,

then treat stains with methylated spirits.

Treat any residual marks with bleach.

Red wine: soak in water and detergent,

rinse and treat with acetic or citric acid,

then rinse. Treat any residual marks with

bleach.

Ink: depending on the type of ink, moisten

the fabric first with acetone

1)

, then with ace-

tic acid; treat any residual marks on white

fabrics with bleach and then rinse thor-

oughly.

Tar stains: first treat with stain remover, me-

thylated spirits or benzine, then rub with

detergent paste.

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.
