Prewash cycle might increase programme duration. Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in compliance with Standard IEC/EN 60 456. Consumption data in the home may vary with respect to the values in the table in relation to the water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of wash.

*The remaining time indicator can similarly deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the household conditions applicable at that time.

**To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle, before the pump drains the water out.

***Reference Programme for Energy Label.

USING CHLORINE BLEACH

•Wash your laundry in the desired Cotton programme, adding an appropriate amount of chlorine bleach to the SOFTENER chamber (close the detergent dispenser carefully).

•Can be used together with “Cotton”, “Synthetics” and “Daily” programmes to make ironing easier.

•Increases the water quantity and the clothes are

spun very soft.

“Eco plus” button

•With a modified temperature profile and a slightly prolonged washing duration, the optimum combination of excellent washing result and even

lower energy consumption can be achieved.

“Prewash” button

•Only for heavily soiled loads (for example sand, granular dirt) sensible. The cycle time increases approximately 15 min.

“Intensive Rinse” button

•This option is particularly suitable for areas with

very soft water, washing baby linen and helps people with allergies.

“Rinse Hold” button

•The laundry remains in the last rinse water without progressing to the final spin cycle to avoid creasing and prevent colours from changing.

sequence indication is on.
