The washing programmes
This washing machine has a wide
range of programmes for optimum
washing of all types of fabrics.
The differences between the
programmes are the rotation rhythm
of the drum, the washing
temperature, the water level, use or
not of the spin cycle etc.
Drying
The dryer part of this machine is a
Turbo Condenser Dryer.
During the drying cycle the machine
uses a small amount of water.
The clothes are dried by means of a
continuous flow of hot air which as it
passes through the drum, gradually
reduces the moisture in the laundry.
The moisture is then condensed
within the machine. The condensed
water is then drained away, together
with the cooling water, through the
drain hose. There is no need to
provide special ventilation in the
room in which the machine is
installed.
The duration of the preset drying time
may be shortened or extended during
the drying cycle. Do not extend or
shorten the drying period within the
8-0 minute cycle. During this time
both the machine and the laundry are
cooling off.
During a power failure it is advisable
to remove the laundry from the
machine. After a short mains power
failure the machine will continue with
the selected programme once the
power is restored.
