Wash cycles and functions
Table of wash cycles
Wash functions
! If the selected function is not compatible with the pro-
grammed wash cycle, the indicator light will flash and the
function will not be activated.
! If the selected function is not compatible with another
function which has been selected previously, the indicator
light corresponding to the first function selected will flash
and only the second function will be activated; the indicator
light corresponding to the enabled function will remain lit.
Steam Hygiene
This option enhances washing performance by generating
steam during the wash cycle that eliminates any bacteria
from fibres while treating them at the same time. Place the
laundry in the drum, choose a compatible programme and
select the function “Steam Hygiene”.
! The steam generated during washing machine operation
may cause the porthole door to become hazy.
Slow Spin
Press this button to reduce the spin speed.
Eco Wash
The Eco function saves energy by not heating the water
used to wash your laundry – an advantage both to the en-
vironment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified wash
action and water optimisation ensure great wash results in
the same average time of a standard cycle.
For the best washing results we recommend the usage of
a liquid detergent.
By selecting the drying function as well, an automatic
drying cycle automatically activates at the end of the wash
cycle – it too allows for saving energy, thanks to the opti-
mal combination of air temperature and cycle duration; the
display will visualise the “Eco” dryness level,
! It can be activated with programmes “Cotton Standard
60°C” and “Cotton Standard 40°C” .
The length of cycle shown on the display or in this booklet is an estimation only and is calculated assuming standard working conditions. The actual duration can
vary according to factors such as water temperature and pressure, the amount of detergent used, the amount and type of load inserted, load balancing and any
wash options selected.
For all Test Institutes:
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with regulation EN 50229: set wash cycle 2 “60°C” (1st press of the button).
2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle 2 “40°C” (2nd press of the button).
