Wash options

Steam Hygiene

This option enhances washing performance by generating steam during the wash cycle that eliminates any bacteria from fibres while treating them at the same time. Place the laundry in the drum, choose a compatible programme and select option “ “.

!The steam generated during washing machine operation may cause the porthole door to become hazy.

!It cannot be used in conjunction with , (90°C), , , , , , , , , , .

Easy Iron

By selecting this option, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases.

At the end of the cycle the washing machine drum will rotate slowly; the “Easy Iron” and START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash. To end the cycle press the START/PAUSE button or the “Easy Iron” button.

For the Silk wash cycle, the machine will end the cycle while the laundry is soaking and the “Easy Iron” indicator light will flash. To drain the water so that the laundry may be removed, press the START/PAUSE button or the “Easy Iron” button.

Time Saver

If you select this option, the wash cycle duration will be reduced by 30%-50%, depending on the selected cycle, thereby guaranteeing simultaneous water and energy saving. Use this cycle for lightly soiled garments.

Eco Option

The Eco Option saves energy by not heating the water used to wash your laundry – an advantage both to the environment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified wash action and water optimisation ensure great wash results in the same average time of a standard cycle.

For the best washing results we recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.
