C Programmes are limited with the highest spin speed appropriate for that particular type of fabric.

When selecting the program you will use, always take fabric type, color, soil degree and permitted water temperature into consideration.

4.3.1 Programs

• Cottons

Use for your cotton laundry (such as bed sheets, duvet and pillowcase sets, towels, bathrobes, underwear, etc.). Your laundry will be washed with vigorous washing action for a longer washing cycle.

• Synthetics

Use to wash your synthetic clothes (shirts, blouses, synthetic/cotton blends, etc.). It washes with a gentle action and has a shorter washing cycle compared to the Cottons programme.

For curtains and tulle, use the Synthetic 40˚C programme with prewash and anti-creasing functions selected. As their meshed texture causes excessive foaming, wash the veils/ tulle by putting little amount of detergent into the main wash compartment. Do not put detergent in the prewash compartment.

• Woollens

Use to wash your woolen clothes. Select the appropriate temperature complying with the tags of your clothes. Use appropriate detergents for woolens.

The maximum washing temperature in Automatic programme depending on the soiling level and laundry type is 60ºC. Washing performance may not be at the desired level for heavily soiled whites and stubborn stains (collar, sock soil, perspiration stain, etc.). In this case, it is recommended to select Cottons programme with prewash and set the temperature to 50-60°C.

Many types of clothing are correctly detected and safely washed in Automatic programme.

• Cottons Eco

Use to wash your normally soiled, durable cotton and linen laundry. Although it washes longer than all other programmes, it provides high energy and water savings.
