[. . . ] are difficult to remove and should be treated before washing with specific products, which can be found in most household shops. In some cases it may help to soak the stain before washing with a special pre-soak product or biological detergent. Only wool marked «Pure New Wool - washable, preshrunk» can be washed in the machine using the wool programme; other types of wool should be washed by hand or dry cleaned. If you have used the machine to wash, rinse or spin only non-colour fast garments, there may be dye left in the sump. To ensure any subsequent wash is not contaminated with the dye, select and carry out a rinse and spin programme, without any garments, to ensure that any dye is removed from the sump. Once you have finished using the machine, you are advised to unplug it and turn off the water taps.

Load the laundry loosely alternating large items with small ones. Sort the laundry according to the type of fabric, colour-fastness and how dirty it is. Before washing, empty all pockets of small objects which may have been left inside (coins, keys, screws etc). It is essential to wash new coloured items separately when washing for the first time. When washing fabrics requiring different wash temperatures together, always select the lowest temperature. Very small items (handkerchiefs, ribbons, socks etc) should be washed in a washing bag or a pillow case. Bleach is very corrosive; it should be used with care and kept out of reach of children.

For best results, always use the dispenser drawer for dispensing detergents and liquid additives. This is particularly important if you are using fabric conditioner to avoid the conditioner entering the machine prematurely.
When using liquid detergent and a prewash programme, place the detergent into the correct compartment in the dispenser drawer, after the prewash has finished.
