• Do not wash 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

For some stains, water and detergent is not sufficient.

We recommend that you pre-treat these stains before you put the items in the appliance.

Special stain removers are available. Use the special stain remover that is applicable to the type of stain and fabric.

11.3 Detergents and additives

• Only use detergents and additives specially made for washing machines:
• powder detergents for all types of fabric,
• powder detergents for delicate fabrics (40 °C max) and woollens,
  – liquid detergents, preferably for low temperature wash programmes (60 °C max) for all types of fabric, or special for woollens only.
• Do not mix different types of detergents.
• To help the environment, do not use more than the correct quantity of detergent.
• Obey the instructions that you find on the on packaging of these products.

12. CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Refer to Safety chapters.

12.1 External cleaning

Clean the appliance with soap and warm water only. Fully dry all the surfaces.

CAUTION!

Do not use alcohol, solvents or chemical products.

• Use the correct products for the type and colour of the fabric, the programme temperature and the level of soil.
• If your appliance does not have the detergent dispenser with the flap device, add the liquid detergents with a dosing ball (supplied by the detergent's manufacturer).

11.4 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 allowed.
• If necessary, use a stain remover when you set a programme with a low temperature.
• To use the correct quantity of detergent, check the water hardness of your domestic system. Refer to "Water hardness".

11.5 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 softener. Obey the instructions that you find on the packaging of the product.

12.2 Descaling

If the water hardness in your area is high or moderate, we recommend that you use a water descaling product for washing machines.

Regularly examine the drum to prevent limescale and rust particles.

To remove rust particles use only special products for washing machines. Do this separately from the laundry wash.

Always obey the instructions that you find on the packaging of the product.

12.3 Maintenance wash

With the low temperature programmes it is possible that some detergent stays in

the drum. Perform a maintenance wash regularly. To do this:

• Remove all laundry from the drum.
• Select the cotton programme with the highest temperature with a small quantity of detergent.

12.7 Emergency drain

Because of a malfunction, the appliance cannot drain the water.

If this occurs, do steps (1) through (5) of 'Cleaning the drain filter'. If necessary, clean the pump.

12.8 Frost precautions

If the appliance is installed in an area where the temperature can be less than 0^ C, remove the remaining water from the inlet hose and the drain pump.

1. Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.

2. Close the water tap.

3. Put the two ends of the inlet hose in a container and let the water flow out of the hose.

4. Empty the drain pump. Refer to the emergency drain procedure.

5. When the drain pump is empty, install the inlet hose again.

WARNING!

Make sure that the temperature is higher than 0 °C before you use the appliance again. The manufacturer is not responsible for damages caused by low temperatures.

13. TROUBLESHOOTING
