) Description of the "Energy saving" function :

" In this model there are same programmes that allow a saving of 30 % energy. With the programmes of 90 °C, it is

possible to obtain the above mentioned energy saving by pushing-in the button indicated by" e ".

.). The principle followed is to reduce the maximum temperature of the cycle from 90 °c to 60 °c, and increasing the

mechanical action of the machine after the temperat\Jre of 60 °c has been reached. In this way an equalized washing

..) actio.n isobtained... The Increased mechanlcal action (drum rotation) IS obtalned by Increaslng the duratlon of the tlmer Impulses 7, 9, 10

) and 12 from 3' to 12' (button" e "pushed.in).

I

, of the mechanical action in the first case is compensated, in the second case, by the reduced heating time.

The cycle duration is practically the same, either with or without button" e "pushed-in, because the increased time

MOTOR
D~rr~nt version with permanent magnets. (.

The stator Includes the ferroxdure permanent magnets.

The rotor contains the laminated soft iran core, the coils and the commutator. ,/ .
Two brush holders, which contain 2 carbon brushes, are placed opposite each other. The carbon brushes rest on the

commutator to provide a sliding contact to pass current.

The motor shaft is equipped with a multi-grooved pulley.

The motor is fed by the "Control unit" which supplies the different voltages required, depending on the speed.
