WASH CYCLES
Follow the instructions on the symbols of the garments wash
care label. The value indicated in the symbol is the maximum
recommended temperature for washing the garment.
Wash & Dry Mixed
Use this cycle to wash and dry mixed garments (cotton and synthetics) in
less than 4 hours. This cycle may be used to wash and dry loads of up to half
of the machine drying capacity; we recommend the use of liquid detergent.
Wash & Dry XL Bed & Bath
This cycle is suitable for washing and drying without interruption cotton
bulky items, like bed linens and towels, with the possibility to fully load
the machine; we recommend using liquid detergent.
Cotton
Suitable for washing towels, underwear, table cloths, etc. made of
resistant linen and cotton that are moderately to heavily soiled.
Synthetics
Specic for synthetic items (e.g. polyester, polyacrylic, viscose, etc.). If the
dirt is dicult to remove, the temperature can be increased up to 60° and
powder detergent can be used too.
Wool - Wool Care
The wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved by
The Woolmark Company for the washing of machine washable
wool products provided that the products are washed
according to the instructions on the garment label and those
issued by the manufacturer of this washing machine. The
Woolmark symbol is a Certication mark in many countries.
(M2222)
Delicates
For washing very delicate garments. For best results, turn the garments
inside out and use liquid detergent. If a time-based drying option is
added, a particularly delicate drying cycle is performed at the end of the
wash cycle, thanks to light handling and appropriate temperature control
of the water jet. The recommended durations are:
1 kg of synthetic garments --> 165 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.
Anti Allergy
Suitable for removing major allergens such as pollen, mites and cat or
dog hair.
Anti Stain
This program ensures stain removal at low temperatures, preserving
fabrics and colours. It is suitable to heavily-soiled garments with resistant
colours. When running the program, do not mix garments of dierent
colours. We recommend the use of powder detergent.
Steam Refresh
This programme refreshes garments by removing bad odours and relaxing
the bres and it is meant for dry, unsoiled items.
Insert dry items only (that are not dirty) and select programme Steam
Refresh. The garments will be damp once the cycle is completed, so we
recommend hanging them to dry (2 kg, roughly 3 items).
The “Steam Refresh programme makes ironing easier.
! Do not add softeners or detergents.
! Not recommended for wool or silk garments.
Spin & Drain
Spins the load then empties the water. For resilient garments. If you
exclude the spin cycle, the machine will drain only.
Rinse & Spin
Rinses and then spins. For resilient garments.
Wash 20°C
For washing lightly soiled cotton garments, at a temperature of 20 °C.
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 ecient in terms of water and energy consumption.
! The cycle runs only at 40°C as per regulation.
Intense 60-90°C
For heavily soiled whites and resistant colours.
Rapid Wash
For washing lightly soiled garments in a short time. Not suitable for wool,
silk and garments to be washed by hand.
Wash & Dry XS Rapid
This cycle is to wash and dry without interruption small garments or
T-shirts in dierent fabrics and colours up to 1kg in 45’. To achieve
optimum results, use liquid detergent.
