soft.
Do not use any detergent. If necessary, remove stains by washing or using
localized stain removal.
Steam programmes do not perform any hygienic cycle.

humid. It is better to expose the items to the fresh air for about 10 minutes to let the
humidity dry. When the programme is completed, quickly remove the laundry from the
drum. After a steam cycle, items may to be ironed anyway, but with less effort!
