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.
Cotton: suitable for washing towels, underwear, table cloths,
etc. made of resistant linen and cotton that are moderately to heavily
soiled.
Synthetics: specic for synthetic items. If the dirt is dicult to remove,
the temperature can be increased up to 60° and powder detergent can be
used too.
Mixed: for washing lightly to normally soiled resilient garments in cotton,
linen, synthetic bres and mixed bres.
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 ecient in terms of water and energy
consumption.
White: suitable for resistant linen and cotton that are heavily soiled.
Delicates: use programme 6 to wash very delicate garments. It is
advisable to turn the garments inside out before washing them. For best
results, use liquid detergent on delicate garments.
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 --> 150 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.
Colours: a 40°C cycle that helps to preserve colours, suitable for cotton or
synthetic coloured garments. It allows for reducing electricity
consumption for heating the water while guaranteeing good washing
results. Suitable for lightly soiled garments.
Dark: use programme 8 to wash dark-coloured garments. This
programme is designed to maintain dark colours over time. We
recommend using a liquid detergent for the best results when washing
dark-coloured garments.
When you select the drying function, at the end of the washing cycle the
machine will automatically perform a delicate drying cycle that preserves the
colours of the garments. The display will show the level “ ”. Max. load: 6 kg.
Antiodour: use programme 9 for washing garments with bad odours (e.g.
smoke, sweat, fried food). The programme is designed to remove bad
odours while preserving the fabric bres. Synthetics fabrics or mixed
loads should be washed at 40°.
20°C: for washing lightly soiled cotton garments, at a temperature of 20 °C.
Wool - Woolmark Apparel Care - Blue:
The “Wool” wash cycle is approved by the Woolmark
Company for washing wool garments classied as
“hand-washable”, provided that the wash complies with
the instructions appearing on the garment’s label and
with those provided by the manufacturer of this
washer-dryer. (M1135)
Rapid 30’: this programme is designed to wash lightly soiled garments at
30° (excluding wool and silk) with a 5.5 kg maximum load in a short time:
it only lasts 30 minutes and allows for saving time and energy.
Wash&Dry 45’: select programme 13 for washing and drying lightly
soiled garments (Cotton and Synthetic) in a short time. This cycle may be
used to wash and dry a laundry load of up to 1 kg in just 45 minutes. To
achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent and pre-treat cus, collars
and stains.
AirFresh: ideal cycle to refresh garments and remove bad odours, in
particular smoke, from cotton and synthetic items in 30’ (max. 1.5 kg)
without the washing phase.
Rinse + Spin: designed for rinsing and spinning.
Spin + Drain: designed to spin and drain the water.
Eco Cotton: for washing normally soiled cotton garments at 60°C.
