A combined Washing and Drying Program

How to dry

Combined (Wash&Dry)

Look at table A to the side and follow the instructions provided for MAX load to have an automatic washing and drying cycle.

Follow the instructions for wash only (see page 9, the section "Starting the Washer- Dryer")

Set the dryer time on Dryer knob.

Press the Power button.

If the laundry load to be washed and dried exceeds the maximum load (see table A), then:

-follow the instructions provided for wash only (page 9, in section "Starting the Washer-Dryer" and follow these instructions.

-when the wash cycle has finished, remove your washing, divide it up and replace part of it inside the drum.

Now follow the instructions provided for a dry only cycle. Repeat this procedure for the remainder of the load.

Dry only

Load the clothes no more than 2/3 full (10 lbs/4.5 kg) for cottons, (see table for other fabrics), make sure that:

- the door is shut correctly;

- the plug is inserted in the socket; - the water tap is turned on;

- Power button has not been pressed (O position).

Set the Washer knob to the appropriate “Reset” setting depending on the type of fabric

Set dryer time on the Dryer knob

Press Power button to start.

When Drying is Complete...

Mode+ Lock light flashes slowly. Turn the washer-dryer off by pressing the Power button (O position). Now you can open the appliance door. Once you have removed the dry clothes from the appliance, leave the door open or ajar to avoid the formation of bad odors and turn off the water (if attached with a faucet adapter kit.)

The drying time depends largely on the type of material (some fibers absorb more water than others), on the dampness of the articles when the drying is started and on the amount of the laundry. Table napkins, towels and similar (rather thick) articles will take a long time to dry.

been washed with flammable or chemical solvents

(e.g. trichlorethylene).

Denim Alert.

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:

12 lbs (5.5 kg) maximum

- Synthetic fabrics:

6 lbs 10 oz (3 kg) maximum

- Delicate fabrics:

5 lbs 8 oz (2.5 kg) maximum

- Pure new wool:

2 lbs (1 kg) maximum

-Bathrobe: 5 lbs 8 oz (2.5 kg) maximum

How much does it weigh? 1 sheet 11/4 lb (400-550 gr.) 1 pillow case 4 oz.(120 gr.) 1 tablecloth 1 lb (450 gr.)

1 bathrobe 2-3 lbs

(900-1,300 gr.)

1 towel 5oz/1 lb (150-500 gr.)

Colored T-shirts, printed ones and shirts last longer if turned inside out before washing.

Printed T-shirts and sweatshirts should always be ironed inside out.

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.

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.

For more delicate

garments:

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

WOOLCYCLE

For best results, we recommend you use very little detergent, taking care not to wash more than 2 lbs (1kg) of laundry.
