5.3 Preparing the machine
Make sure that the hoses are securely connected. Plug in your machine. Open the tap completely. Place the laundry in the machine. Add detergent and fabric softener.
5.4 Programme selection
Select the programme suitable for the type, quantity and soiling degree of the laundry in accordance with the "Programme and consumption table" (5.10) and the temperature table below.
90˚C Heavily soiled white cottons and linens. (coffee table covers, tablecloths, towels, bed sheets, etc.)
60˚C Normally soiled, coloured, fade proof linens, cottons or synthetic clothes (shirts, dressing gowns, pyjamas, etc.) and lightly soiled white linens (underwear, etc.)
40˚C Mixed laundry including delicate textile 30˚C Cold (net curtains, etc.), synthetics and wool.
5.5 Main programmes
Depending on the type of fabric, use the following main programmes.
• Cotton
Use this programme for cotton laundry (such as bed sheets, duvet and pillowcase sets, towels, bathrobes, underwear, etc.). Laundry will be washed with a vigorous washing action and for a longer washing cycle.
• Synthetics
Use this programme to wash synthetic clothes (shirts, blouses, synthetic/cotton blends, etc.). This programme 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 a little amount of detergent into the main wash compartment. Do not put detergent in the prewash compartment.
• Wool
Use this programme to wash your woollen clothes. Select the appropriate temperature complying with the tags of your clothes. Use appropriate detergents for wool.
