Do not set a Steam programme with these types of items:
• Items to be washed at a temperature lower than 40°C.
• Items where it is not specified on the care label as being suitable for tumble drying.

Auffrischen - Ra‐ fraîchir
1.5 kg Steam programme for cotton and synthetic items.
This cycle removes odours from the laundry7).
Glätten - Dé‐ froissage
1.5 kg Steam programme for cotton and synthetic items. This cycle helps to dewrinkle the laundry.
1)
To reduce creasing, this cycle regulates the water temperature and performs a soft wash and spin phase. The
appliance adds some rinses.
2)
During this cycle the drum rotates slowly to ensure a gentle wash. It can seem that the drum doesn't rotate or
doesn't rotate properly, but this is normal for this programme.
3)
Set the spin speed. Make sure it is suitable for the type of fabric being washed. If you set the No Spin option
then only the drain phase is available.
4)
Set this programme to decrease the energy and water consumption maintaining a good washing performance.
5)
Standard programmes for the Energy Label consumption values. According to regulation 1061/2010,
these programmes are respectively the «Standard 60°C cotton programme» and the «Standard 40°C cotton pro‐ gramme». They are the most efficient programmes in terms of combined energy and water consumption for washing normally soiled cotton laundry.
The water temperature of the washing phase may differ from the temperature declared for the se‐ lected programme.
6)
If you set a Steam programme with dried laundry, at the end of the cycle the laundry could be humid. It is better to expose the items to the fresh air for about 10 minutes to let the humidity dry. When the programme is completed, quickly remove the laundry from the drum. After a steam cycle, items may be ironed however with less effort.
7)
Steam does not remove animal odours.
