Wool and silk

Wool and silk are sometimes marked machine wash, and sometimes hand wash. The Wool and Hand programmes of the machine are at least as gentle as washing by hand.

Wool is particularly sensitive to mechanical processing. If you wish to avoid spin drying, you can press out the water instead using terry towelling. In this case, you should select No Spin. See Chapter 9, Washing for details of how to select this setting.

Most garments will tolerate a short spin, ho- wever. The Wool and Hand programmes al- ways include a short spin.

Man-made fibres and synthetic fibres

These materials require a lot of space if they are not to crease. Fill the drum only to half load when washing man-made/synthetic fibres. Se- lect a short spin by selecting a spin speed of 800 revolutions/minute or lower.

NOTE

Viscose and acetate are brittle when wet.

MINIMIZING ALLERGY RISKS

This washing machine offers a Super rinse func-

tion . You should use this to take account of persons with a sensitive skin, for example persons with allergies and infants.

PRE-SOAKING

The Pre-soaking option 2h means that your washing will be soaked for two hours before the programme starts. This is useful for highly soi- led washing.

The drum will rotate on two occasions every tenth minute.

SAVE TIME

Use the White/Coloured programme to save time. This programme has a shorter main wash than ”Normal”, but it is often sufficient for nor- mally soiled washing.

ECONOMY AND EFFICIENCY

You can save a lot of energy by not using a stronger programme than necessary.

- Without increasing the temperature, the wash- ing effect can be increased by selecting the option. You will then save energy without lo- sing any washing effect.

-Select a fast spin speed to reduce the energy consumption for subsequent drying in a tumble dryer or a drying cabinet.

-Select Quick if you simply need to freshen up shirts or training kit, etc. You will save both water and energy.
