Notes

-For programmes 7 and 8, we advise against exceeding a wash load of 3.5 kg. -For programme 12 we advise against exceeding a wash load of 2 kg.

-For the anti-crease function: see Easy iron, opposite page. The information contained in the table is purely indicative.

Special programme

Daily (programme 10 for Synthetics) is designed to wash lightly soiled garments in a short amount of time: it only lasts 30 minutes and allows you to save on both time and energy. By setting this programme (10 at 30°C), you can wash different fabrics together (except for woollen and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg.

We recommend the use of liquid detergent.
