DETERGENT DISPENSER DRAWER
Compartment *:				A
Do not insert detergent in this compartment.	B			A
Compartment 1: Washing detergent (powder
or liquid)
If liquid detergent is used, the removable plastic
partition A (supplied) should be used for proper			*
dosage.		2	*	1
If powder detergent is used, place the partition
into slot B.
Compartment 2: Additives (fabric softeners, etc.)
The fabric softener must not exceed the “MAX”
level.

!Use powder detergent for white cotton garments, for pre-washing, and for washing at temperatures over 60°C.

!Follow the instructions given on the detergent packaging.

WASH CYCLES

Follow the instructions on the symbols of the garment’s wash care label. The value indicated in the symbol is the maximum recommended temperature for washing the garment.

Anti-Stain Turbo

This cycle is ideal for washing daily stains in 45’. It is ideal for mixed fabrics and coloured garments.

Anti-Stain 20°C

this programme ensures maximum stain removal capacity with no need for pre-treatment at low temperatures, preserving fabrics and colours.

Cotton

Suitable for washing towels, underwear, table cloths, etc. made of resistant linen and cotton that are moderately to heavily soiled.

Synthetics

Specific for synthetic items. If the dirt is difficult to remove, the temperature can be increased up to 60° and powder detergent can be used too.

Rapid 30’

For washing lightly soiled garments in a short time. Not suitable for wool, silk and garments to be washed by hand.

Mix Wash & Dry

use programme 6 to wash and dry mixed garments (cotton and synthetics). This cycle may be used to wash and dry loads of up to 3.5 kg; we recommend the use of liquid detergent.

The use of the steam in this programme is optimised to reduce the formation of creases on garments, making them easier to iron.

Shirts Wash & Dry

Use programme 7 to wash and dry shirts and T-shirts in different fabrics and colours to ensure maximum care. This cycle may be used to wash and dry loads of up to 2 kg. To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent and pre-treat cuffs, collars and stains. The use of the steam in this programme is optimised to reduce the formation of creases on garments, making them easier to iron.

Wool - Woolmark Apparel Care - Green:

the wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool

garments labelled as “hand wash” provided that the products are washed according to the instructions on the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of

this washer-dryer. (M1318)

Eco 40-60

For washing normally soiled cotton garments declared to be washable at 40 °C or 60 °C, together in the same cycle. This is the standard cotton programme and the most efficient in terms of water and energy consumption.

20°C

For washing lightly soiled cotton garments, at a temperature of 20 °C.

White

For heavily soiled whites and resistant colours.

Anti Allergy

Suitable for removing major allergens such as pollen, mites and cat or dog hair.

Steam Refresh

For refreshing garments, neutralised unpleasant odours and relaxing the fibres by delivering steam into the drum. The garments will be damp at the end of the cycle.

Ultradelicates

For washing very delicate garments. It is advisable to turn the garments inside out before washing them. For best results, use liquid detergent on delicate garments.

We recommend turning the garments inside out before washing and placing small items into the special bag for washing delicates. Use liquid detergent on delicate garments for best results.

When selecting an exclusively time-based drying function, a drying cycle is performed at the end of the wash cycle that is particularly delicate, thanks to light handling and appropriate temperature control of the water jet.

The recommended durations are:

1 kg of synthetic garments --> 165 min

1 kg of synthetic and cotton garments --> 180 min 1 kg of cotton garments --> 180 min

The degree of dryness depends on the load and fabric composition.

Rinse&Spin

Designed for rinsing and spinning.

Spin&Drain

Designed for spinning and draining the water.

Eco Cotton

For washing normally soiled cotton garments at 60°C.
