spins at 1,200 or 800 rpm depending on how you set it,
During Permanent Press the drum spins at 850 rpm, During
delicates, the drum spins at 500 rpm, The faster spinning
will extract more water from highly absorbent fabrics and
reduce the degree of dampness,
Using Liquid Fabric Softener, Fiii the softener
compartment up to the level marked, Using fabric softener
fluffs out clothes immediately after the wash cycle, This
helps speed drying time and reduce wrinkles.
Use Low sudsing Detergent. This is recommended for all
front loading washers, it ensures there is no over sudsing,
which may reduce the performance and damages to your
machine.
When sorting Jaundry always take into consideration the
quantity and type of fabric contained in the load, Highly
absorbent fabrics such as those used in towels or jeans
will absorb more water and become very heavy when
saturated, If you notice that your clothes are taking longer
than usual to dry you may be overloading the machine, or
washing too many highly absorbent articles for a single load,

Before washing, you can do agreat deal to ensure better results. Divide your
garments according to _hbric and color. Read the labels, _bllow their guidelines.
LAUNDRY PREPARATmON
Sorting
Clothes should be sorted from separate items which could
damage other garments, Sort items into loads according to
similar colors, fabrics, garment construction and degrees of
soil,
- Color. Separate clothes intothree groups: whites and pastels,
medium and bright colors and dark colors, Items which bleed
color should be washed alone,
- Type of fabrics. Delicate items should be separated from
sturdier items, Fabrics that shed lintshould be separated from
those which shed none or attract lint,
- Garment constructions. Garments that may fray easily or
that have unusual trim require gentle care, These garments
may be washed in the loader using the knit cycle, if garments
are fragile and delicate, hand washing may be desirable,
- Degree of soit. Heavily soiled items should be separated
from the rest ofthe wash to prevent transfer of soil inthe wash
water,
hspection
While sorting clothes into wash-loads, also inspect each
garment to see if it requires special care,
- Remove stains, while they are fresh and easy toget out, Try
cold water firstto remove unknown stains, Hot water sets stains
containing proteinsuch as blood, egg, meatand milk.Toremove
difficult stains, refer to the removal Chart at the end of the
manual,
- Pretreat heavily soibd areas such as collars, cuffs and
centers of pillowcases, Refer to the "Pretreating" section for
specific instructions,
- Mend rips and tears, before washing, so further damage is
- Empty pockets. Objects left in pockets such as crayon,
pens or markers, or tobacco crumbs may stain an entire wash
load, Paper tissues will shred leaving bits on each item in the
washer, Remove coins and other foreign objects to prevent
damage to the machine.
- Fasten aHhooks, zippers and buttons.
- Turn knit garments inside out to reduce the tendency of
knits to "pill', Fabric "pills" are balls offibers on the surface the
garments caused by wear or friction,
- Remove Joose dirt and sand. Brush dirt from trouser cuffs;
shake or vacuum rugs to remove loose surface soil,
- If bucMe is washable, place a scrap of material securely
around the ornament before washing and drying to prevent
scratching and damage to the machine, Remove non-washable
trims, buckles, buttons and belts,
- Tie strings, belts and apron sashes into bows to avoid
tangling during washing.
Pretreating
Pretreat heavily soiled areas such as collars, cuffs and center
of pillowcases by using a prewash spray, or brushing liquid
detergent or a laundry detergent or a laundry detergent and
water paste over the areas before washing,

Prewashing
Prewash excessively soiled clothes, such as work or children's
clothes. Prewashing with detergent will help loosen the soil.
detergent until the detergent remaining in the clothes is
removed, Olddetergent trapped inthe garments will be released
during the tumble action wash cycle,
For quantities of detergent to be used, refer to the detergent
manufacturer's instructions on the box.
Detergent will be flushed automatically into the machine from
the detergent dispenser_The suds levelshould never risemore
than halfway up the porthole. Too much foam will not impede
the wash action of your machine but will rise through the
detergent dispenser and make a mess on the floor !
Laundry aids
Detergents are the most popular cleaning agents for home
laundry.
Using too little detergent results in poor wash quality, while
using too much causes excessive suds and poor rinsing.
Detergents not only remove soil, but abe hold itin suspension
in the wash water to prevent redepositing it on the wash load.
The amount to use depends on wash load size, amount of soil,
water hardness and detergent type.
ALWAYS measure the amount of detergent. The amount
of suds formed is not necessarily an indication of how much to
use. Some detergents form a great amount of suds, others
only a few. Use only detergents suitable for front loading
washers.
UNDRY AIDS
1, Use only low sudsing detergent,
2,The degree of soilwiiichange detergent amounts, Forheavier
soiled loads, increase the amount of detergent used,
3, if water is extremely hard, detergent should be increased,
Less detergent should be used in soft water,
4, if garments have been pretreated, decrease the amount of
detergent, if garments have been heavily pretreated, it may not
be necessary to add detergent,
5, ifthe previous machine owned was a top loader, the initial
washloads in a front loader may require a reduced quantity of
B_eaches
Bleach functions to whiten clothes, remove certain problem
stains, to deodorize and in some cases to sanitize; however
bleaching isnot asubstitute forgood laundry techniques. Bleach
should never be added tothe rinsewater. Always dilute bleach
before using.
To add bleach, open detergent dispenser door and pour in
compartment 4 (see page 15 and 13ol 4).
Fabric Softener
All fabrics, particularly towels, benefit from the use of fabric
conditioners in the final rinse, items of laundry feel softer, and
are more easily ironed and making these clinging affect of
synthetics is considerably reduced.
Pour thesoftener into "Additives" compartment of thedetergent
dispenser to the level indicated on the syphon. Under no
circumstances overfill, as the softener will immediately syphon
into the machine and in so doing, impair the wash results.

It's important for a good wash
The first secret is the easiest: the detergent dispenser
You must follow the quantity
recommendations provided by
the manufacturers when
adding detergent or fabric
softener. Quantities wH[ vary
according to the wash load, the
water hardness and how soiled
the clothes are.
Experience wi[[ help you select
the right quantity almost
automatically.
Before adding detergent for
pre-washing in compartment
1, make sure that the extra
compartment for bleach 4 has
not been inserted.
Ensure no overfilling when
adding fabric conditioner in
compartment 3.
The washing machine automa-
ticalIy adds the softener to the
wash in each program.
Liquid detergent is poured into
compartment 2 just a few
seconds before starting the
wash cycle.
Remember that liquid
detergent is only designed for
wash cycles of up to 60
degrees on non pre-wash
items.
Special containers are sold
with liquid or powder deter-
gents for placing inside the
washing machine drum, these
are positioned according to the
instructions found in the
detergent box

is opened by pulling it out.
Never use hand wash deter-
gent, because it may form too
much foam, which could da-
mage the washing machine.
Detergents that are specifically
formulated for both hand and
machine wash are an excep-
tion.
One last secret: when
washing with cold water,
always reduce the amount of
detergent you use: it dissolves
less easily in cold water than
in hot water, so part of it would
be wasted.
Detergent dispenser

The detergent dispenser can
be removed and c/eaned: puff

When pouring in the bleach,
be careful not to exceed the
"max" level indicated on the
central pivot (see illustration).
TraditionN bleach can oNy be

Easy Care and Maintenance
machine
Your washing machine is a reliable companion in life. It is just as important [i>r you to keep it in shape.
Your washing machine is
designed to provide reliable
service over many years. A few
simple steps will help to extend
its life and avoid problems. It is
advisable to turn off water
faucets when the machine is
not in use. This protects the
hoses, etc.
tf the water in your area is
bard, use a water softener
(hard water often leaves white
stains around taps or drains,
especially in bath tubs. For
more accurate information
about the type of water in the
system, call your local water
utility).
Pockets must Mways be
emptied, removing pins,
badges, coins, or any other
hard obiects.
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
The washing machine exterior
should be cleaned with a rag
dipped in lukewarm water and
soap. Do not use polish of any
kind on the plastic trim. Some
polishes contain agents which
can damage plastics.
Cleaning the interior
If you live an area where
phosphate detergents are
banned, it may be necessary
to recondition the washer
periodically+ Because a non-
phosphate detergent must be
used, body oils and detergent
may accumulate in the washer
tub. This is particularly evident
in hard water areas or in
homes where heavily soiled
garments are regularly
laundered. To remove this
buiW+up, run the washer
through a complete cycle
using hot water and 2 cups of
water softener. Do not add any
clothes, detergent, or other
laundry aids.
Once the accumulation has
been removed, your laundry
should be satisfactory if you
follow the preventive
suggestions in this owner's
manual.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
After washing is complete the
water faucets should be turned
off to relieve water pressure on
the hoses.
Wipe the inside of the door with
a soft cloth to remove any
remaining moisture.
Periodically, a thin coat of pa-
ste wax should be applied to
the inner door of the washer;
especially to the area which
is immediately next to the
door window. This will protect
the door finish from laundry
aid spills and any
discoloration which may
results of these spills.
Clear the Coin Trap
Clear the coin trap in case of
blockage. For instructions,
please read the section
below.
Never add too much
detergent.
Detergents already contain
deliming agents. Only if the
water is particularly hard, that
is, rich in lime content, do we
recommend the use of a
specific product at every
wash.
A periodical wash cycle with
a dose of a deliming product,
without detergents or
washing, may prove useful+
Never use too much
detergent or additives
because this coumd cause
excessive sudsing, scaBing,
and possible damage to
components in your
washing machine.
Use onmy mow+sudsing deter+
gents.
Do not forget to empty all
pockets:
smafl objects can cause
serious damage to your
washing machine /
When in need, check the pump and the rubber hose.
The wasbing machine comes equipped with a seff+cmeaning pump that does not require any cleaning or maintenance.
Small objects may accidentally fall into the pump: coins, hair clips, loose buttons, etc.To avoid possiMe damage, they
are witbbe_d in an accessiNe coin trap, located at the bottom right end of the machine.
Fig° 1
The water inlet hose
Attention: Before attempting to examine this coin trap, first ensure
that the machine has finished its program and is empty. Unplug the
machine, as with any maintenance.
To gain access, gently ease down the top of the kick plate panel at the
base of the machine with a screwdriver etc, to release it. Then ease
the top edge forward to al!ow it to be lifted clear (Fig. 1). Place a
shallow dish or tray below the cover of the pre-chamber to catch any
water that might be present. Open the cover by turning it counter-
clockwise (Fig. 2). When finished cleaning, ensure that the cover is
securely tightened.
Re-fit the kick plate cover by inserting the hooks on its lower edge
into the slots and ease the top edge back into position.
Check the rubber hoses at least once a year. If you see any cracks, replace the hose immediately. When you use your washinc
machine, water pressure is very strong and a cracked tube could easily split open. Superior quality Stainless Steel hoses are
recommended.
