and their blends. Effective one-hour programme. Make sure to wash only similar colours
together in one wash load. If soil level requires, add oxygen-based stain removers.

Normally to heavily soiled towels, underwear, table and bed linen etc. made of
cotton and linen.

Normally soiled blouses, shirts, overalls, etc. made of polyester (Diolen, Trevira),
polyamide (Perlon, Nylon) or blends with cotton.

Curtains and delicate clothing, dresses, skirts, shirts and blouses.

Woollens, labelled with the Woolmark and identified as machine washable, as well
as textiles made of silk, linen, wool and viscose marked as handwashable. This

programme is tested and approved by The Woolmark Company for machine- and
handwashable wool. Select spin speed according to the manufacturer’s recommendations
on the care label.

Normally to heavily soiled and robust white cotton laundry.

Save energy by selecting a lower wash temperature and adding an oxygen-based bleach
product, in addition to your detergent.

White and pastel shaded garments made of delicate fabrics. Gentle wash programme
to avoid graying or yellowing of your laundry. Use heavy duty detergent, if necessary also
stain removers or bleaches on oxygen basis. Do not use liquid detergent.

Black and dark garments made of cotton, cotton blends and polyester.

Special programme to reduce colour fading and local discolouration. Prefer to use a special
liquid detergent for dark garments with this programme.

Heavily soiled and robust laundry made of cotton, synthetics and their blends.

Economical energy consumption by prolonged washing duration - ideal to be run overnight
to profit from more favourable energy rates. Avoid noise of spinning at night by setting
the spin speed to “0” and start spin programme in the morning, or by defining programme
start with “Start delay” accordingly. For garments with a high share of synthetic fibres, we
recommend to use a laundry net.

Lightly soiled laundry made of synthetic fibres, or synthetics mixed with cotton
garments. Saving programme with a very low water consumption. Use liquid detergent

and the lowest recommended amount for 3kg laundry. Do not use softener.

Briefly worn clothing made of cotton, artificial fibres and blends with cotton.

Refresh programme. Use lowest recommended detergent amount.

Normally soiled cotton jeanswear and garments made of robust jeanslike material

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.Water and energy consumption refer
to the default setting of the programmes; selecting special options or modifying spin speed or temperature will change the consumption data.
The programme duration may differ from the values indicated above as it depends on the operation conditions applicable at that time (see also
“Troubleshooting Guide” in your Instructions for Use).
*

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.
