The cycle duration indicated on the display or instruction manual is an estimate based on standard conditions. The actual duration may vary in rela-
tion to several factors, such as the temperature and pressure of the incoming water, ambient temperature, amount of detergent, load quantity and
type, load balancing and any additional options selected.
For all Test Institutes:
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with regulation 2010/1061: set wash cycle 2 with a temperature of 60°C and 40°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption;
it should be used for garments which can be washed at 60°C and 40°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated
value.
2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle 2 with a temperature of 40°C.
3) Short wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle 4 with a temperature of 40°C.
4) Synthetic program along: set wash cycle 5 with a temperature of 40°C.
Specials wash cycles
Express (wash cycle 10) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes and
therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (10 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics toge-
ther (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.
Sport Intensive (wash cycle 11) is for washing heavily soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best
results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the "Table of wash cycles".
Sport Light (wash cycle 12) is for washing lightly soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best results,
we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the "Table of wash cycles". We recommend using a
liquid detergent and dosage suitable for a half-load.
Sport Shoes (wash cycle 13) is for washing sports shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs simultaneously.
