4. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
4.1 Special features
Your new washing machine meets all
modern requirements for an effective
treatment of laundry with low water,
energy and detergent consumption and
respectful of fabric care.
•
The Oko-Mix technology has been
designed to protect the fabric fibres
thanks to different pre-mixing phases
that dissolves first the detergent and
then fabric softener in the water
before they are distributed in the
laundry. So every fibre is reached and
cared for.
10
www.electrolux.com
•
•
The ProSense technology detects
the laundry load size defining the
programme duration in 30 seconds.
The washing programme is tailored to
the laundry load and the type of fabric
without consuming more time, energy
and water than necessary.
The steam has a quick and easy way
to refresh the clothes. The gentle
steam programmes remove odours
and reduce creases in dry fabrics so
they need little ironing.
The Plus Steam option, finishes
every cycle with gentle steam that
•
•
relaxes the fibres and reduces fabric
creasing. Ironing will be easier!
The Stains option pre-treats
stubborn stains optimizing the
effectiveness of the stain remover.
Thanks to the Soft Plus option, the
fabric softener is uniformly spread out
in the laundry and deeply penetrates
the fabric fibres favouring a perfect
softness.

11. HINTS AND TIPS
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
11.1 The laundry load
•
•
•
•
Divide the laundry into: white,
coloured, synthetics, delicates and
wool.
Follow the washing instructions on the
laundry care labels.
Do not wash white and coloured items
together.
Some coloured items can discolour
with the first wash. We recommend
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
that you wash them separately for the
first couple of times.
Button up pillowcases, close zippers,
hooks and poppers. Tie up belts.
Empty pockets and unfold.
Turn multilayered fabrics, wool and
items with printed illustrations inside
out.
Pre-treat tough stains.
Wash heavy soil stains with a special
detergent.
Be careful with curtains. Remove the
hooks and put the curtains in a
washing bag or pillowcase.
Do not wash laundry without hems or
with cuts. Use a washing bag to wash
ENGLISH
•
small and/or delicate items (e.g.
underwired bras, belts, tights, etc. ).
A very small load can cause balance
problems with the spin phase leading
to excessive vibration. If this occurs:
a. interrupt the programme and
open the door (refer to "Opening
the door when a programme or
the delay start operates");
b. manually redistribute the load so
that the items are spaced evenly
around the tub;
c. press the Start/Pause button.
The spin phase continues.
11.2 Stubborn stains
•
•
•
•
•
We recommend that you pre-treat these
stains before you put the items in the
appliance.
•
11.3 Detergents and other
treatments
•
•
Only use detergents and other
treatments specially made for
washing machines:
– powder detergents for all types of
fabric,
– powder detergents for delicate
fabrics (40 °C max) and woollens,
– liquid detergents, preferably for
low temperature wash
programmes (60 °C max) for all
types of fabric, or special ones for
woollens only.
Do not mix different types of
detergents.
the indicated maximum level (
).
Use the recommended detergents for
the type and colour of the fabric, the
programme temperature and the level
of soil.
11.4 Ecological hints
For some stains, water and detergent is
not sufficient.
Special stain removers are available.
Use the special stain remover that is
applicable to the type of stain and fabric.
•
Set a programme without the prewash
phase to wash laundry with normal
soil.
Always start a washing programme
with the maximum load of laundry
allowed.
If you pre-treat the stains, you can
use a stain remover when you set a
programme with a low temperature.
To use the correct quantity of
detergent, check the water hardness
of your domestic system. Refer to
"Water hardness".
11.5 Water hardness
If the water hardness in your area is high
or moderate, we recommend that you
use a water softener for washing
machines. In areas where the water
hardness is soft it is not necessary to use
a water softener.
To find out the water hardness in your
area, contact your local water authority.
Use the correct quantity of water
softener. Follow the instructions that you
find on the packaging of the product.
12. CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Refer to Safety chapters.
12.1 External cleaning
Clean the appliance with mild soap and
warm water only. Fully dry all the
surfaces.
27
To help the environment, do not use
more than the recommended quantity
of detergent.
Follow the instructions that you find
on packaging of the detergents or
other treatments without exceeding
CAUTION!
Do not use alcohol, solvents
or chemical products.
CAUTION!
Do not clean the metal
surfaces with chlorine-based
detergent.
28
www.electrolux.com
12.2 Descaling
12.5 Cleaning the drum
If the water hardness in your
area is high or moderate, we
recommend that you use a
water descaling product for
washing machines.
Regularly examine the drum to prevent
rust particles.
Regularly examine the drum to check
any limescale.
Always follow the
instructions that you find on
the packaging of the
product.
2. Run a short cotton programme at
high temperature with empty drum
and with a small quantity of powder
detergent , in order to rinse out any
left residues.
The regular detergents already contain
water softening agents, but we
recommend to run a cycle with empty
drum and a descaling product
occasionally.
Always follow the
instructions that you find on
the packaging of the
product.
12.3 Maintenance wash
The repeated and prolonged use of low
temperature programmes can cause
detergent deposits, fluff residues,
bacterial growth inside the drum and the
tub. This could generate bad odours and
mildew.
To eliminate these deposits and
hygienize the inner part of the appliance,
run a maintenance wash regularly (at
least once a month):
1. Remove all laundry from the drum.
2. Run a cotton programme with the
highest temperature with a small
quantity of powder detergent.
For a complete cleaning:
1. Clean the drum with special products
for stainless steel.
12.6 Cleaning the detergent
dispenser
To prevent possible deposits of dried
detergent or clotted fabric softener
and/or formation of mould in the
detergent dispenser drawer, once in a
while carry out the following cleaning
procedure:
1. Open the drawer. Press the catch
downwards as indicated in the
picture and pull it out.

compartment to aid cleaning and
flush it out under running warm
water, to remove any traces of
accumulated detergent. After
cleaning, replace the top part in its
position.

• The appliance makes an unusual
noise because of the blockage of the
drain pump.
• The display shows the alarm code
.
WARNING!
