Successful washing results also depend on the correct dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance and contribute to environmental pollution.
!Do not use hand washing detergents; they create too much foam.

Baby: use the special wash cycle 8 to remove the remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while removing all traces of detergent from nappies in order to prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergic reactions. The cycle has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by using a greater quantity of water and optimising the effect of special disinfecting additives added to the detergent.

If powder detergent is used, place the partition into slot B. compartment 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.) The fabric softener should not overflow the grid.
Preparing the laundry
•Divide the laundry according to:
-the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
-the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
•Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
•Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry:
Durable fabrics: max. 7 kg
Synthetic fabrics: max. 3 kg
Delicate fabrics: max. 2 kg
Wool: max. 1,5 kg
Silk: max. 1 kg
How much does your laundry weigh? 1 sheet
1 pillow case
1 tablecloth
1 bathrobe
1 towel
Wool: is the only washing machine manufacturer to have been awarded the prestigious Woolmark Platinum Care endorsement (M.0508) by the Woolmark Company, which means that all woollen garments may be washed in the washing machine, even those which state “hand wash
only” 
on the label. Wash cycle 9 therefore offers complete peace of mind when washing woollen garments in the washing machine (max. load 1,5 kg) and guarantees optimal performance.
Delicates: use programme 10 to wash very delicate garments having strasses or sequins.
We recommend turning the garments inside out before washing and placing small items into the special bag for washing delicates.
Use liquid detergent on delicate garments for best results. To wash silk garments and curtains select the cycle 10 and set the “Delicate” level from option 
; the machine will end the cycle while the laundry is soaking and the START/PAUSE” indicator light will flash. To drain the water so that the laundry may be removed, press the START/ PAUSE button.
Eco cycles
The Eco Cycles assure energy saving by eliminating the need of heating water and it’s an advantage both to your energy bill and the environment! These innovative Eco programmes (Cottons, Synthetics and Fast 30’) are available for various fabrics and different quantity of garment; they have been designed to guarantee a high cleaning action even at low temperature and can be used for lightly to medium soiled loads.
Eco Cycles give the best results thanks to an intensified wash action, water optimization and are carried out in the same average time of a standard cycle.
For the best washing results with Eco Cycles we recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.
