WHITE COTTON 60°

Designed for the washing of all durable white cotton

garments. Higher washing temperatures offer improved

washing results in Class A appliances.

COLOUR MIX 40° / EASY-IRON

This programme can be used to wash all your coloured

garments, whether cotton or synthetic fabric. The spin

cycle is carefully controlled during the entire wash cycle,

so as to reduce the formation of creases in the fabric

and make it easier to iron.

Cotton and synthetic garments can be washed at the

same time.
DELICATES 30°

A cycle designed for the washing of all woollen, silk and

delicate garments. As these garments have different

features, this programme requires an activation

process which is different from the others:

DELICATES CYCLE WITH FINAL SPIN (for

woollen garments): press the START DELICATES

PROGRAMME

button. After approximately 3

seconds, the START DELICATES PROGRAMME

and START DAILY WASH PROGRAMME buttons

begin to flash. Press the START DELICATES

PROGRAMME

button to perform the wash, which

ends with a delicate spin cycle. This programme

includes drum movements which have been carefully

researched to remove excess water from the fabric,

thereby reducing friction and helping to protect your

woollen garments.

DELICATES CYCLE WITH SPIN PHASE

EXCLUDED (for silk and viscose garments and for

curtains; not to be used for washing wool):

press the START DELICATES PROGRAMME

button. After approximately 3 seconds, the START

DELICATES PROGRAMME

and START DAILY

WASH PROGRAMME buttons begin to flash. Press

the START DAILY WASH PROGRAMME button to

perform the wash without the final spin cycle. At the

end of the cycle, the machine will automatically drain

the water contained in the drum. We recommend that

the garments are removed from the washing machine

straight away, in order to limit the formation of creases.

DAILY WASH 30 / COLD WATER RINSE

This programme can be used to wash lightly soiled

cotton or synthetic fabrics, or garments with the "wash

at 30°"

instruction on the label, in just 30 minutes. It

is also possibile to rinse cotton or synthetic garments

which have been washed by hand (this does not include

wool or silk).
Thanks to its special sensors, the washing machine

is able to recognise when the garments placed in the

drum have detergent on them.

- if no detergent is detected on the clothes, the DAILY

WASH 30' cycle will be performed;

- if detergent is detected (cloths which have been

washed by hand), the COLD WATER RINSE cycle will

be performed automatically.

AUTOMATIC RINSE MANAGEMENT

The rinse function is monitored and controlled in every

programme by special sensors. If the garments are

very soapy at the end of the wash, the rinse cycle

will be extended automatically until the detergent is

removed completely. In this case the wash

programme duration may be slightly increased in relation

to the information given in the table of programmes.

The duration of the programmes indicated in the table are for guidance purposes only, and are calculated based on an average load quantity.
