Wash options
Steam Hygiene
This option enhances washing performance by generating
steam during the wash cycle that eliminates any bacteria
from fibres while treating them at the same time. Place the
laundry in the drum, choose a compatible programme and

Eco
The Eco Option saves energy by not heating the water
used to wash your laundry – an advantage both to the
environment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified
wash action and water optimisation ensure great wash
results in the same average time of a standard cycle.
For the best washing results we recommend the usage of a
liquid detergent.

thereby guaranteeing simultaneous water and energy
saving. Use this cycle for lightly soiled garments.
