The combination of everyday functionalism, environmental
concern and clean, pleasant lines is the principal
hallmark of Scandinavian design – and that of ASKO.
The fundamental idea is that carefully designed
products should improve people’s quality of life. To
distinguish ourselves in a market of cluttered, complex
and voluptuous designs, we aim for a soft, humanistic
minimalism based on the principle of quiet being the
new loud. The key elements of Scandinavian design
– understated elegance, high-quality craftsmanship
and natural materials – are reflected in ASKO’s
design language. Much emphasis is also placed on
functionality. We strive to make life easier by offering
truly user-friendly interfaces, integration of practical
functions and trouble-free, durable products that
please people for a long time.

biggest troubles
In the process of developing our latest washing machines
and dryers, we met with consumers. These meetings
became small narratives with different views, ideas and
wishes. We learned a lot and started developing a new

generation of washing machines and tumble dryers with
many great improvements and solutions. Here we have
collected some of the most common concerns and how we
try to resolve them.
Butterfly drying
We have solved this problem by creating a unique solution
that we call Butterfly drying. The two paddles inside the
machine gently push the clothing in a figure of eight, to
spread the garments out and allow air to evenly circulate
through them. This prevents bundling and minimises
creasing in your clothes.
Too noisy and vibrations
Living next door to the laundry room or having the
washing machine nearby the kitchen creates a poor audio
environment and in the long run is perceived as very
disturbing.
Dirty rubber bellow
Lots of dirt and bacteria accumulate in the rubber bellow.
It causes bad odours and requires regular and time
-consuming cleaning. The rubber bellow is also the part of
the washing machine that breaks first.
Door too small
Many people with large and active families often wash
several times a day. In such a situation, loading and
unloading can be extra difficult. The washing machine
opening is too small and the clothes get stuck in the
rubber bellows.
Vibration-free spinning
All our washing machines have the unique Quattro
Construction™. The inner and outer drum rest on four
shock absorbers that are attached to the bottom plate.
Spinning causes virtually no vibrations.
Hygienic Steel Seal
A better alternative to the traditional rubber bellow is the
hygienic and maintenance-free Steel Seal™ solution that
you find on all ASKO washing machines. There is simply
no place for dirt to gather, eliminating the need for regular
cleaning.
™
Big doors on all ASKO washers
The doors on all ASKO washing machines have a large
porthole diameter of 307 mm. The fact that they lack
the traditional rubber bellow also makes loading and
unloading considerably easier.
Despite our 65 years in the industry, we do not rest on
our laurels, we always strive to understand how we can
make our products even better. This time around we have
done our best to learn from real people, finding out what
they think are the biggest problems in the laundry room .
We combined these insights with our years of experience
in both domestic and commercial laundry to create a new
generation of good-looking, user-friendly, innovative and
long-lasting washing machines and tumble dryers.

A timeless
classic
Our Classic models have a program for every scenario and with the
two run modes, you can quickly adjust the programs to make them
either more environmentally friendly or wash more intensively. The
interface is easy to understand and straight forward to use with a
selection knob for program selection and buttons for each option. The
front plate, panel and controls have the same timeless, discreet and
elegant white design.

Make logical
choices
For the Logic models we focused on a minimalistic appearance with
sleek lines and a balanced colour scheme between the front plate,
panel and display. Harmony is key here and the Logic models are
suited to all types of integration where appearance is important. This
is the logical choice for everyone and caters to the need for both
design and function.
Long lasting and timeless
On our Logic models the panel, detergent drawer lid, dial and
buttons are all made of carefully brushed metal and stainless steel.
It is not simply a way to signify quality, it is also entirely in line with
honest Scandinavian design, where quality should not only be
superficial - if something looks robust, it must also be robust.

Laundry care
the ASKO way
Don’t wash too hot
Pure cotton fabrics typically require 60°C to release
dirt. But today fabrics made from mixed fibres are more
common and usually suffice with a lower temperature.
High temperatures cause wear on textile fibres and greatly
reduce the life of your clothes.
Don’t wash too often
When you wash your clothes the fibres in the garments are
rubbed, folded and worn, which ultimately causes them to
break apart.
Be extra careful with wool
Wool is naturally strong and durable but can change
shape when it is processed too intensively. It is therefore
important to both be careful and have patience. Washing
wool correctly by hand takes a long time and a skilled
hand.
ASKO cleans even at low temperatures
We have made it easy for you to choose a lower temperature
without impairing the end result. Our Pro Wash system
ensures that all detergent is used in the laundry process.
In addition, the system activates the detergent earlier in the
laundry process, which prolongs its cleaning effect.
*W4086P.W only
Use the tumble dryer instead
If your clothes have no visible stains, you can use the
airing programs on our tumble dryers. This is an ideal way
to get your clothes fresh again, without any detergents
struggling to clean textile fibres.
ASKO is more careful than you
Choose to wash your wool fabrics in an ASKO instead of
doing it by hand. This is in fact gentler on the fabric than
you could ever be.
Dark clothes fade
You’ve probably heard that you should turn your jeans
inside out to maintain the colour better, but few are aware
that this is true for all dark garments. Also, do not put
them in the dryer if you want to keep the colour as long as
possible because heat is tough on colour.
Don’t use softener on towels
Softener agents consist of microscopic plastic particles
that retain a certain amount of moisture to soften the towel.
On the other hand, the towel becomes less absorbent,
which actually counteracts its purpose.
Don’t forget to wash the washer
Over time detergent residue, textile fibres and skin residue
will build up in the washing machine. This will inevitably
end up on your clothes and can cause bad odours and
allergies.
Wash them with Dark wash
There have long been programs for white wash, but few
for dark fabrics, which are arguably as common. With
our Dark wash program you can wash your dark laundry
without the risk of detergent spots and colour bleaching.
Additional rinses, low mechanical action and low spin
speeds ensure that your dark laundry is washed gently
and rinsed thoroughly.
Air is the best softener
Instead of softeners that degrade the towel’s ability to bind
moisture and can even contribute to skin problems, simply
choose to dry them in our tumble dryers. They will be both
dry and soft - without chemicals.
Use our drum cleaning program
Do not let a dirty washing machine destroy your laundry.
We have created a special drum cleaning program that
effectively cleans drums, hoses and other components
involved in the laundry process.

Mode function
- your shortcut to
better washing
When using a run mode, different parameters of the selected program are changed to be able to,
for example, wash faster, quieter, more energy efficiently or more intensively. Our Logic models have
five different modes, and the Classic models three.
Normal mode
Normal mode means no changes to the program. Enough water,
energy and time is used to be able to achieve a perfect washing
result for normally soiled loads.
Green mode
If you want to save both water and energy you should choose Green
mode. To achieve the best possible washing and rinsing result yet
still reduce energy consumption, each stage in the program is
prolonged. Total program time will thus be longer compared to
Normal mode.
Allergy mode
This mode adds water to be able to rinse away all detergent
residue from the load as well as from the detergent compartment.
More water is used in Allergy mode and energy and time are
also added to achieve the best possible washing and rinsing
performance. The selected temperature is kept at the same level
for a longer time.
Speed mode
When selecting Speed mode you task the washing machine with
delivering perfect washing and rinsing results in less time than
normal. To achieve this, both more water and more energy are
added to the washing cycle.
Intensive mode
In this mode the washing machine has plenty of time to wash
the load, more time than in Normal mode. And to really ensure a
perfect result for heavily soiled clothes, more water and energy are
also used. In Intensive mode the selected temperature is kept at
the same level for a longer time.

Programs for all
kinds of laundry
Today, we wear significantly more variations of clothing, different types of fabrics and often fabrics of mixed materials than we did just a
decade ago. As a consequence, it is also more difficult to choose the right program. We have made it easy for you to make the right choice by
creating a large number of programs for different types of clothes and fabrics. Some of them are featured here.
Hygiene
The hygiene program is designed for all those
situations where deep hygienic washing is required. It
is perfect for home chefs who need to clean aprons,
kitchen towels and other textiles that meet raw food. It
is also suitable for baby clothes, bedding and clothes
used by skin allergy sufferers. In the latter case we
recommend you turn the garments inside out as
this will also thoroughly wash out any skin residue or
residue from skin products. The program combines
longer heating sequences and extra rinses
*Excludes W2084C.W

Dark wash
Dark wash helps eliminate the risk of detergent
spots on fabrics. Extra rinses are added while low
mechanical action and low spin speeds ensure
that your dark laundry is washed gently and rinsed
thoroughly.
Jeans
Jeans are a durable fabric outside the washing
machine but require some extra care during washing.
Our Jeans program cleans your favourite pair by
washing at lower temperatures and using lower spin
speeds. In addition, we have added extra water to
ensure that all detergent residue is washed from the
fabric and the thick seams, eliminating the risk of
detergent stains

Shirts
Have you ever found that it’s hard to get collars and
cuffs clean on your shirts? Then you should try the
shirts program. It’s a gentle but effective program
where we use more water and repeated rinses to get
even the thicker parts of the shirt clean

Bedding
A weekly wash of your bedding will remove skin
residue and mites that cause allergies. This program
is used to wash bedding, pillows and larger items.

Fabric care and skin care. We tend to both
We are becoming increasingly sensitive to both ingredients in our food
and various substances in our surroundings. Washing detergent is no
exception. That’s why it is so important that a washing machine can
rinse away all detergent that can accumulate in both the fabric and
the machine.
Super clean with Super Rinse
Dirt is not good for your clothes and detergents are not good for
your skin. As a preventive measure for people with very sensitive
skin ASKO’s washing machines feature an extra rinse function
called Super Rinse. This is especially important in countries with
soft water and means that the machine rinses up to seven times.

Hygienic Steel Seal™ door
A common feature of all commercial washing machines, whether
they are used in hotels, beauty salons or retirement homes, is that
they have no rubber bellow. And there’s good reason. Eliminating
a rubber door seal that can degrade over time and trap dirt and
grime ensures a more hygienic wash. You will also find loading
and unloading easier with the Steel Seal
