Useful tips to avoid mistakes
Never use your washer-
dryer to wash... torn, fraying or
non-hemmed linen. If it is
absolutely neccessary, place it in
a bag for protection. Brightly
coloured linen with whites.

For best results, do not exceed
the weight limits stated below
(figures show weight when dry):
- Resistant fabrics:
5.5 kg maximum
- Synthetic fabrics:
2.5 kg maximum
- Delicate fabrics:
2 kg maximum

Cashmere Gold: As gentle as a hand wash
The first Washer to have "The Woolmark Company" recognition.
The Cashmere Gold wash
programme has been studied
for machine washing even the
most delicate and valuable
wool and Cashmere
garments.
“The Merloni Elettrodomesti-
ci wool wash cycle has been
tested and approved by The
Woolmark Company for
washing Woolmark garments
labelled as “hand wash”. This
is the first gentle action hand
wash cycle approved by The
Woolmark Company.”

This has been made possible
thanks to the speed of the
drum at 90 rpm, even during
the rinse cycle, thus
preventing the fibres from
rubbing.
Always use programme 9 with
garments bearing the hand wash
symbol: the washbasin and
hand.
To take care of your woollen
items, we recommend you use
special detergents.
EXCLUSIVE
How to wash almost anything
Curtains.
Curtains tend to crease a great
deal. Here is a tip to reduce
creasing: fold the curtains and
place them in a pillow case or
mesh bag. Do not load anything
else, so that the overall weight
does not exceed the half load.
Remember to use the specific
programme 10 which automa-
tically excludes the spin cycle.
Trainers.
Once you have removed mud and
dirt from trainers, you can wash
them with jeans and other tough
garments. Do not wash trainers
with whites.
Quilted coats and wind-
cheaters.
You can wash quilted coats and
wind-cheaters, too, if they are
padded with goose or duck
down. Do not load more than
2-3 kg and never load 5.5 kg.
Repeat rinse once or twice using
the gentle spin.
How much does it weigh?
1 sheet 400-500 gr.
1 pillow case 150-200 gr.
1 tablecloth 400-500 gr.
1 bathrobe 900-1,200 gr.
1 towel 150-250 gr.
Coloured T-shirts, printed
ones and shirts last longer if
turned inside out before washing.
Printed T-shirts and sweatshirts
should always be ironed inside
out.
Salopette alert.
Very popular “salopette” type
overalls have straps with hooks
that can damage the drum of
your washer-dryer or other
garments during the wash. By
placing the hooks in the bib
pocket and fastening them with
safety pins, all risks are avoided.
Holidays: unplug the
appliance.
When you go on holiday, we
recommend that you unplug your
washer-dryer, shutting off the
water inlet tap and leaving the
door opened or ajar. In this way,
both the drum and the gasket will
remain nice and dry and
unpleasant odours will not
develop inside the washer-dryer.

For best results, we
recommend you use a
specific detergent, taking
care not to wash more
than 1 kg of laundry.
