QUICK WASH button

D

Pressing this button reduces the time of the wash programme by a maximum of 50 minutes depending on the programme and the temperature selected. The quick wash button can be used for washing loads of 1 to 4,5 kg. This option may only be utilised on cottons and synthetics programmes.

QUICK IRON button

E

 

The Quick Iron function minimizes creases as much as possible with a uniquely designed anti-crease system that is tailored to specific fabrics.

MIXED FABRICS - the water is gradually cooled throughout the final two rinses with no spinning and then a delicate spin assures the maximum relaxation of the fabrics. DELICATE FABRICS – final two rinses with no spinning and then the fabrics are left in water until it is time to unload. When you are ready to unload, press the Quick Iron button – this will drain and spin ready for emptying

RESISTANT FABRICS AND WOOLLENS - at the end of the final rinse, the fabrics are left in water until it is time to unload. When you are ready to unload, press the Quick Iron button – this will drain and spin ready for emptying

If you do not want to spin the clothes and activate drain only :

release the START button

turn the selector knob to the OFF position

select programme drain

wait around 5 seconds

switch on the appliance again by pressing the START button

EXTRA RINSE button

F

 

This function will allow an extra rinse or more water added at the rinse stage – depending on the programme selected. This is particularly important for avoiding skin irritation from detergent residues for people with particularly sensitive skin.

The extra rinse button is also recommended when washing heavily soiled fabrics, requiring the use of a lot of detergent, or when washing items made of towelling, whose fibres have a greater tendency to retain detergent.

STAIN BUSTER button

G

 

This function which is available on all cotton programmes is very useful for heavy soiling. The temperature is kept constant throughout all the wash phases and the programme is extended to ensure an extra deep cleaning performance.

VARIABLE SPIN SPEED selector

H

 

Can be turned in either direction

 

The spin stage plays a very important role in preparing the

 

laundry for efficient drying and your model offers maximum

 

flexibility to suit all your requirements.

 

The selector can be turned to reduce the maximum spin

 

speed, right up to eliminating the spin completely (position ).

 

In programmes for mixed fibres, synthetics and delicates,

 

the washing machine automatically lowers the spin speed.

 

In order not to damage fabrics, it is not possible to increase this spin speeds.

 

Note: this model is fitted with an electronic device that checks the load is balanced correctly. If the load is slightly unbalanced the machine will re-balance it automatically to carry out the normal spin.

If, after several attempts, balance is not restored, a reduced spin speed will be used.

If loads are seriously unbalanced the spin stage will be cancelled.

This helps limit vibration, reduce noise output and improve the washing machine’s lifespan.
