When selecting an exclusively time-based drying function, a drying cycle is performed at the end of the wash cycle that is particularly delicate, thanks to light handling and appropriate temperature control of the water jet.

The recommended durations are:

1 kg of synthetic garments --> 150 min

1 pillow case 150-200 g

1 tablecloth 400-500 g

1 bathrobe 900-1200 g

Special wash cycles

Ready to Wear 45’: select programme (2nd press of the

button) for washing and drying lightly soiled garments (Cot- ton and Synthetic) in a short time. This cycle may be used to wash and dry a laundry load of up to 1 kg in just 45 minutes.

To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent and pre- treat cuffs, collars and stains.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the washer-dryer performs the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution and bal- ance, we recommend small and large garments are mixed in the load.

Anti Stain : this programme is suitable to heavily-soiled garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing class that is higher than the standard class (A class). When
