B! [. . . ] Detergents for curtains with optical brightening agents, resistant to light, to prevent yellowing from sunlight. Special detergents for programmed use of chemical substances, depending on fabric type, degree of soiling and water hardness. Here basic detergents, softeners, bleaches/stain removers can be added separately. Dosage for powder detergent For normal and low concentration detergents: for normally soiled laundry choose a programme without prewash. Put 1/4 of the detergent in compartment "I", 3/4 in compartment "II" of the drawer. When using water softeners, first put in the detergent, then add the softener to compartment "II". For highly concentrated detergents not in single dose format, follow what is shown on pack exactly as regards type and amount of dosage. To avoid the difficulty of checking if the detergent has been taken up, use the dosage aids provided in the detergent packaging. Additional laundry aids Water softener, means less detergent can be used where water hardness is classed as hard to very hard. Prewash substances, for the programmed treatment of stains prior to the main wash. Using them means the subsequent wash can be at a low temperature or with bleach-free detergents. Fabric softener, prevents static build-up in synthetic fabrics and softens fabrics. If you own a tumble dryer, clothes are softened even without the use of a fabric softener. Liquid detergent dosage Liquid detergents may be used in accordance with the instructions on the relevant packaging, for all programmes without prewash, by using the special container which is placed in the drum or, for those models that have it, in the special insert for liquid detergents. Do not put solvents in the washing machine!Keep detergents and other laundry products out of children's reach. Before pouring in the detergent check that there are no foreign bodies in the detergent drawer. Follow those instructions. 18 19 Cleaning and routine maintenance Do not use alcohol-based scourers and /or thinners on the outside of your washing machine, just a wipe with a damp cloth will suffice. The washing machine needs very little maintenance: - Cleaning the drawer compartments. - Cleaning the filter. Transporting the appliance or long periods when appliance is not in use If the appliance is being transported or is out of use for long periods in unheated places, all remaining water must be completely removed from the hoses. Ensure mains power is off, then unclip the hose and point it downwards into a basin until all the water has emptied out. When finished, repeat the operation in the reverse order. Cleaning the drawer compartments Even if it is not strictly necessary, it is good to clean the compartments for bleaching detergents and additives occasionally. A) To do this you just need to pull them out firmly, but without forcing them. C) Put everything back in its proper place. Cleaning the filter The washing machine is fitted with a special filter for handling large deposits which could block the discharge hose (coins, buttons etc. ) and which can, therefore, be easily retrieved. The cleaning operation is as follows: 1) Ease off the plinth cover as shown in picture. 2) Turn the filter anti-clockwise until it stops in the vertical position.
