ARGHERITA
Margherita - Instructions for installation and use
You must follow the dosage
recommendations provided by
the manufacturers when adding
detergent or fabric conditioner.
Doses will vary according to the
wash load, the water hardness and
how soiled the washing is.
Experience will help you select
the right dosage almost
automatically: it will become
your secret.
Ensure no overfilling when adding
fabric conditioner in compart-
ment 3.
The washing machine automa-
tically adds the softener to the
wash in each programme.
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, so you will not have
to use button F.
In compartment 1:
Detergent for pre-washing (powder)
In compartment 2:
Detergent for washing
(powder or liquid)
In compartment 3:
Additives (softeners, perfumes, etc.)
Useful tips about the detergent dispenser
It’s important for a good wash
The first secret is the easiest: the detergent
dispenser is opened by rotating it outwards.
Special containers are sold with
liquid or powder detergents for
placing inside the washing
machine drum, these are
positioned according to the
instructions found in the
detergent box
Never use hand wash detergent,
because it may form too much
foam, which could damage the
washing machine.
Detergents that are specifically
formulated for both hand and
machine wash are an exception.
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.
Cutting costs efficiently
A guide to
environmentally
friendly and economic
use of your appliance.
MAXIMISE THE LOAD SIZE
Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the
recommended maximum load size.
SAVE up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.
DO YOU NEED TO PRE-WASH?
For heavily soiled laundry only!
SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by
NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.
IS A HOT WASH REQUIRED?
Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water before
washing to reduce the necessity of a hot wash programme.
SAVE up to 50% energy by using a 60°C wash programme.
BEFORE USING A DRYING PROGRAMME ...
SAVE energy and time by selecting the highest suitable spin speed to reduce
the water content in laundry before using a drying programme.
The detergent dispenser can be
removed and cleaned: just lift it up
and pull it outwards ,as indicated in
the figure. Then leave it under running
water for a few minutes.
