Programmable functions

Water plus

This programmable function is used to select the water intake setting for the Water plus extra option.

There are three different options:

Water +

(the machine is delivered with this option selected)

The water level is increased in the wash and rinse stages.

Extra rinse

An extra rinse is introduced.

Water+ & Extra rinse

The water intake is increased in the wash and rinse stages and an additional rinse is also introduced.

Gentle action

Activating gentle action reduces the drum action and is suitable for washing slightly soiled items more gently. It should be activated for garments with a single bar under the care label and for articles which feel too hard after they have been dried.

Gentle action can be activated for the Cottons and the Minimum iron programmes.

The washing machine is delivered with the Gentle action setting deactivated.

Suds cooling

When this is activated, additional water flows into the drum at the end of the main wash to cool the suds down. Hot suds can damage plastic drainage pipes.

Suds cooling takes place when temperatures of 95°C and 75°C are selected.

Suds cooling should be activated:

–to prevent the danger of scalding if the drain hose is hooked over the edge of a sink or basin.

–where the drainage pipes do not comply with DIN 1986.

The machine is delivered with Suds cooling deactivated.
