Detergents and laundry

Quilted Jacket: 

to wash quilted jacket, cushions or 

clothes padded with goose down (the weight of which 
should not exceed 1,5 kg), use the special   wash cycle.

Bedlinen and towels:

 use programme 

 to wash bed 

linen and towels in one single cycle: it optimises softener 
performance and helps you save time and energy. We 
recommend the use of powder detergent 

Anti Allergy:

 use programme

 to remove major allergens 

such as pollen, mites, cat’s and dog’s hair. 

Ultradelicates

:

 use programme   to wash very delicate 

garments having strasses or sequins.
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.
To wash 

Silk

 garments and 

Curtains

 select cycle   and 

then option 

(in this case it will also be possible to 

enable the “Extra Rinse” option); the machine will end the 
cycle while the laundry is soaking and the 

 indicator 

light will flash. To drain the water so that the laundry may 
be removed, press the START/PAUSE button or the 

button.  

Wool:

 the wool wash cycle on this Hotpoint-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. 
Hotpoint-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. (M1253)  

In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade mark 
is a Certification trade mark.

Cotton Standard 

20°C

: 

ideal for lightly soiled cotton 

loads. The effective performance levels achieved at cold 
temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°, 
are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at 
varying speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.

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 washing machine 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.

Detergent

The type and quantity of detergent required depend on 
the type of fabric you are washing (cotton, wool, silk, 
etc.), as well as its colour, the washing temperature, the 
level of soiling and the hardness of the water in the area.
Measuring out the detergent carefully will avoid wastage 
and help to protect the environment: although they are 
biodegradable, detergents still contain ingredients which 
alter the balance of nature.
We recommend the following:
•  use powder detergents for white cotton garments and 

pre-washing.

•  use liquid detergents for delicate cotton garments and 

for all low-temperature wash cycles.

•  use gentle liquid detergents for wool and silk 

garments.

The detergent should be poured into the relevant 
compartment - or the dispenser placed directly inside the 
drum - before the wash cycle begins. In the latter case, it will 
not be possible to select the Cottons with pre-wash cycle.

!

 Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for 

pre-washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C 

!

 Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.

!

 Do not use hand washing detergents because these 

create too much foam.

Preparing the laundry

•  Shake out the garments before loading them into the 

machine.

•  Divide the laundry according fabric type (symbol on the 

washing instruction label) and colour, making sure you 
separate the coloured garments from the white ones;

•  Empty all 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.
