Automatic Features

Intelligent Care:

Your appliance has an inbuilt feature to prevent it spinning with an unbalanced load,avoiding excessive vibration and prolonging
the life of the appliance.

Pulse Spin:

Helps reduce wear and tear on your laundry.
Pulse spin is an automatic function where a long,steady spin is followed by a 30 second burst at the maximum speed for your
appliance, to enable safer,more efficient water extraction.

Dry Spin:

There will be a 2 minute spin about 20 minutes after the drying programme has started; this improves the drying performance.

NOTE: This feature will not operate if you have selected a combined Wash & Auto Dry Programme for synthetic fabrics.

STEP 6

Choosing a Drying Programme

Items Not Suitable
for Tumble Drying:

● Garments with the ITCL
code ­DO NOT TUMBLE DRY.

● Woollens.

● Large bulky items eg.

quilts, bedspreads,
pillows etc... expand
when dry,preventing air
flow through the
appliance.

● Items containing plastic
film, foam rubber or
rubber like materials eg.
pillows, cushions, PVC
rainwear or inflammable
articles which contain
inflammable substances
eg. towels contaminated
with hair lacquer.

● Fibreglass (eg. some
types of curtains).

● Items which have been
dry cleaned.

Fabric

Natural

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: A 10 minute ‘Cool Tumble’phase at the end of
each drying cycle allows fabrics to gently cool down, minimising creasing.

All fabrics contain a little natural moisture even when ‘dry’,this should not
be lost if the clothes are to remain soft and fluffy. If clothes are subjected
to extreme drying they tend to wrinkle and consequently need more
ironing than usual. As clothes feel damper when warm, allow for this
when removing items before the ‘Cool Tumble’phase is complete.

This machine incorporates a ‘Dry Spin’ feature, see Automatic Features.

Washcare Tips:

Before washing:

● Pre-treat stains.

● Close zips, tie belts,strings etc...

and press studs to prevent
tangling.

● Remove papers or tissues from
pockets.

● Remove sharp objects and coins
from pockets as they could cause
damage to clothes or the
appliance.

● Limit the size of absorbent loads
ie. towels, to 3kg (7lb) to give
good washing/rinsing results.

● Place small items in a wash bag.

● Check wash labels as some items

may require a cool programme.

● Wash non-colourfast woollens or
really dirty laundry separately as
they may affect other items.

● Laundry will not wash properly if
you overload the appliance.

● Laundry without a wash label
should not be machine washed.

OUT OF BALANCE!

Did you know that putting one or two

This happens because the items are

not absorb as much water and will help

to spread the weight in the drum.
