Programme selector

The washing machine has 3 different programme groups according to type of wash, temperature, spin speeds and duration for handling the various types of fabric and their level of soiling (see wash programme guide).

1.COTTONS

The programmes are designed for maximum washing and rinsing. With spin cycles in between, they guarantee the laundry is rinsed perfectly. The final spin cycle ensures laundry is spun dry as much as possible up to the maximum speed.

2.SYNTHETICS and mixed fabrics

Washing and rinsing performance is optimised through drum rotation speeds and water levels. The delicate action spin (at 400 rpm) minimises creasing.

3.DELICATES

This is a new concept in washing, with a cycle that comprises of alternate periods of activity and pauses, particularly suitable for washing very delicate fabrics, such as Pure New Wool.

Wash and rinsing are carried out using a high water level to provide the best results.

4.HAND WASH

This washing machine also has a gentle Hand Wash programme cycle. This programme allows a complete washing cycle for garments specified as ‘Hand Wash only’ on the fabric label.

The programme has a maximum temperature of 30° and concludes with 2 rinses, one for fabric conditioner, and a slow spin.

5.SPECIAL PROGRAMMES SPEED WASH

This washing machine also has a SPEED WASH programme option (Programme S). This programme allows a complete washing cycle to be carried out in approximately 30 minutes, with a maximum load of 2kg and is recommended for lightly soiled items. When selecting the Speed Wash programme, please note that we recommend you use only 20% of the recommended quantities shown on the detergent pack. Do not use fabric conditioner with this programme.
