Programme Descriptions

For handling the various types of fabric and their level of dirtiness in your laundry the

washing machine has different programme groups according to type of wash,

temperature, spin speed and duration (see Programme Guide).

Once the programme is selected, the intelligent sensor will weigh the laundry using the

KG Mode and adjust the critical elements of the wash cycle depending on the weight

of the laundry to ensure perfect results (available on Cotton and Synthetic cycle). The

KG Mode is activated during the ﬁrst 4 minutes of the cycle, which enables the

machine to:

● adjust the amount of water required;

● determine the length of the wash cycle;

● control rinsing according to the fabric type selected;

● recognises if too much lather is present, adjusting the water level during rinsing if necessary;

● adjusts the spin speed according to the load, avoiding any imbalance

Cotton with Pre Wash

The Cotton programme is designed for maximum washing and rinsing efﬁciency. With

spin cycles in between, the programme guarantees the laundry is rinsed perfectly. The

ﬁnal spin cycle ensures laundry is spun dry as much as possible up to the maximum

speed.

The Cotton programme includes a Prewash cycle. This option is particularly useful for

really dirty loads and can be used independently of the main wash programme.

Additional detergent for the Prewash part of the programme should be added to the

ﬁrst compartment of the soap drawer labelled "1" (please refer to the section of this

manual entitled “Detergent”). We recommend you use only 20% of the quantity used

for the main wash programme.

Cottons

The Cottons programme is also designed for maximum washing and rinsing efﬁciency.

With spin cycles in between, the programme guarantees the laundry is rinsed per-

fectly. The ﬁnal spin cycle ensures laundry is spun dry as much as possible up to the

maximum speed. This cycle is set to 40°C, but the temperature may be altered using

the Temperature option button.

Synthetics

Washing and rinsing performance is optimised through using drum rotation speeds

and water levels suitable for synthetics and mixed fabrics. The programme will default

to 40°C, but the temperature may be altered using the Temperature option button. The

delicate spin action minimises creasing. The ﬁnal spin speed for the synthetics

programme is 800rpm

Delicate

The cycle will consist of alternate periods of activity and pauses. This is particularly

suitable for washing very delicate fabrics, as it creates a hand-washing effect.

Washing and rinsing are carried out using a high water level to provide the best results.

Rinse

This programme carries out three rinses with an intermediate spin (which can be

reduced or excluded by using the Spin Speed option). It can be used for rinsing any

type of fabric e.g. use after hand washing.

Spin

The Spin programme completes the spin at the maximum spin speed, this can be

reduced by using the Spin Speed option button.

Drain

This programme drains out the water from the machine.

Silk

This washing machine also has a gentle Silk and Hand Wash programme.

This programme allows a complete washing cycle for garments speciﬁed as “Hand

Wash Only” and laundry items made from silk or speciﬁed “Wash as Silk” on the

fabric label.

The programme has a maximum temperature of 30°C and concludes with 3 rinses,

one for fabric conditioner, and no ﬁnal spin.

Wool

This is a programme dedicated to washing fabrics labelled with the Woolmark symbol .

The cycle consists of alternate periods of activity and pauses. Washing and rinsing are

carried out using a high water level to provide the best results. The programme has a

maximum temperature of 40°C and concludes with 3 rinses, one for fabric conditioner,

and a short spin at 800rpm.

Sports

This washing machine has a unique Sportswear programme.

It is specially designed to wash mixed sportswear fabrics that cannot be washed on

hotter programmes and is designed to remove the dirt and staining created by

participation in sports activities.

This programme washes at a cool 30°C, rinses twice (one is for fabric conditioner)

and spins at 800rpm for the best care of your really dirty, delicate garments.

Rapid

The Rapid programme allows a washing cycle to be completed in just 14 minutes! This

programme is particularly suited to slightly dirty cottons and mixed fabrics.

Using the Wash Time button on the Rapid cycle will enable you to select either a 14,

30 or 44 minute wash cycle.

When selecting the rapid programme, please note that we recommend you use only

20% of the recommended quantities shown on the detergent pack.
