Successful washing results also depend on the correct
dose of detergent: adding too much detergent will not
necessarily result in a more efficient wash, and may in
fact cause build up on the inside of your appliance and
contribute to environmental pollution.
! Do not use hand washing detergents; they create too
much foam.

Preparing the laundry

• Divide the laundry according to:
- the type of fabric/the symbol on the label
- the colours: separate coloured garments from whites.
• Empty all garment pockets and check the buttons.
• Do not exceed the values listed in the "Table of wash
cycles", which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry.
How much does your laundry weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 g
1 pillow case 150-200 g
1 tablecloth 400-500 g
1 bathrobe 900-1,200 g
1 towel 150-250 g

Special wash cycles

Anti Stain: the programme 1 is suitable to heavily-soiled
garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing class
that is higher than the standard class (A class).
When running the programme, do not mix garments of
different colours. We recommend the use of powder
detergent. Pre-treatment with special additives is
recommended if there are obstinate stains.
Whites: use this cycle 2 to wash white clothes. The
programme is designed to maintain the brightness of white
clothes over time. Use powder detergent for best results.
If the drying function is selected, a drying cycle automatically
activates at the end of the wash cycle that resembles open-

air drying, with the added advantages of preserving garments
from yellowing due to sunlight exposure and preventing loss
of whiteness caused by the possible presence of dust in the
air. Drying cycles can only be selected on a level basis.
Anti allergy: use programme 7 to remove major allergens
such as pollen, mites, cat's and dog's hair.
Wool: the wool wash cycle on this Ariston machine has
been tested and approved by The Woolmark Company
for washing wool garments labelled as hand washable
provided that the garments are washed according to the
instructions on the garment label and those issued by the
manufacturer of this washing machine. Ariston is the first
washing machine brand to be approved by The Woolmark
Company for Apparel Care- Platinum for its washing
performance and consumption of energy and water.

In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade
mark is a Certification trade mark.
Delicates: use programme 9 to wash very delicate
garments having strasses or sequins.
To wash silk garments and curtains select the cycle 9 and
set the "Delicate" level from option
We recommend turning the garments inside out before
washing and placing small items into the special bag
for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate
garments for best results.
When selecting an exclusively time-based drying function,
a drying cycle is performed at the end of the wash cycle
that is particularly delicate, thanks to light handling and
appropriate temperature control of the water jet.
The recommended durations are:
1 kg of synthetic garments --> 150 min
1 kg of synthetic and cotton garments --> 180 min
1 kg of cotton garments --> 180 min
The degree of dryness depends on the load and fabric
composition.
Wash&Dry select programme 11 for washing and drying
lightly soiled garments (Cotton and Synthetic) in a short
time. This cycle may be used to wash and dry a laundry
load of up to 1 kg in just 45 minutes.
To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent and pre-
treat cuffs, collars and stains.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations
before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform
manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which
is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If,
after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly,
the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is
excessively unbalanced, the washer-dryer performs the
distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage
improved load distribution and balance, we recommend
small and large garments are mixed in the load.
