•Cottons

You can wash your durable clothes with this program. Washes with vigorous washing movements in a longer washing cycle. It is recommended for your cotton items (such as bed sheets, duvet and pillowcase sets, bathrobes, underclothing, etc.).

•Synthetics

You can wash your less durable clothes on this program. Washes with gentler washing movements and in shorter washing cycles. It is recommended for your synthetic clothes (such as shirts, blouses, synthetic/cotton blended garments, etc.). For curtains and lace, using the “Synthetic 40” program with pre-wash and anti-creasing functions selected is recommended. Detergent should not be put in the pre-wash compartment. Less detergent should be put in the main wash compartment as loose knit fabrics (lace) foam too much due to its meshed structure.

•Delicates
