WHITE COTTONS 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 cotton and
synthetic garments and woollen garments): press the
START DELICATES PROGRAMME
button. After
approximately 3 seconds, the START DELICATES
PROGRAMME
and START RAPID 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 and other
delicate fabrics.
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 RAPID
WASH PROGRAMME buttons begin to flash. Press
the START RAPID 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.
RAPID WASH 30/RINSE ONLY
This programme can be used to wash lightly soiled
cotton or synthetic garments quickly, or to rinse
garments which have been washed by hand.
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 (lightly soiled garments),
the RAPID 30 cycle will be performed.
- If detergent is detected (cloths which have been
washed by hand), the RINSE ONLY 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.
