Washcare tips and Starting

Useful tips

Never use your washing machine to wash... torn, fraying or non-hemmed linen. If it is absolutely neccessary, place it in a bag for protection. Do not wash colored linen with whites.

Watch the weights!

For best results, do not exceed the weight limits stated below (figures show weight of dry garments):

-Resistant fabrics (heavy - regular-light cotton): 15 lbs (7 kg) maximum

-Synthetic fabrics (heavy-regular-light):

7.5lbs (3.4 kg) maximum

-Delicate fabrics

6.5lbs (3 kg) maximum

Denim Alert.

Some overalls have straps with hooks that can damage the drum of your washing machine or other garments during the wash. To minimize the risk, place hooks in the pocket and fasten with safety pins.

-Pure new wool

3.5lbs (1,8 kg) maximum

-Bathrobe 6.5 lbs (3 kg) maximum

For more delicate garments:

protect underwear, tights and stockings and delicate items by placing them in a linen bag

Understanding Fabric Care Labels

How much does it weigh?

1 sheet 11/4 lb	(400-550 gr.)	NA

1 tablecloth 1 lb	(450 gr.)
1 bathrobe 2-3 lbs	(900-1,300 gr.)

Wool cycle

Cashmere Platinum

As gentle as a hand wash.

Ariston is the only washing machine to have obtained the prestigious Woolmark Platinum Care

mark of recognition (M.0303) from The Woolmark Company, which certifies the machine washing of all woollen garments, even those whose label states "hand

wash only" .

The "Wool" program therefore offers you complete peace of mind when washing all woollen

garments, with great performance guaranteed every time.

For best results, we recommend you use very little detergent, taking care not to wash more than 3.5 lbs (1,8 Kg) of laundry.

Vacations: unplug the appliance.

It is recommended that you should unplug the machine from the socket and turn off the water supply. Leave the door ajar to allow air circulation to the draw and the door gasket area. This will prevent unpleasant odours.

The symbols on labels of your garments will help you in choicing suitable wash program, the right temperature, wash cycles and ironing methods. Don’t forget to give a glance to these useful indications !
