Gentle action
Activating gentle action reduces the drum action and is suitable for washing slightly soiled items more gently. It should be activated for garments with a single bar under the care label and for articles which feel too hard after they have been dried.
Gentle action can be used with the Cottons, Quick wash, Starch and Auto- matic programmes.
If "Gentle action" is programmed into the machine, every wash cycle in these programmes will be carried out with gentle action rhythm.
