Programme Selector

For handling the various types of fabric and their level of
soiling in your laundry the washing machine has different
programme groups according to type of wash, temperature,
spin speeds and duration (see Programme Guide).
Cottons
The Cottons programmes are designed for maximum washing
and rinsing. With spin cycles in between, they guarantee the
laundry is rinsed perfectly. The final spin cycle ensures laundry
is spun dry as much as possible up to the maximum speed.
The 90°C programme includes a Prewash cycle. This option is
particularly useful for heavily soiled loads and can be used
independently of the main wash programme. Detergent for
this programme should be added to the first compartment of
the soap drawer labelled "I" (please refer to the section of this
manual entitled "The Dispenser"). We recommend you use
only 20% of the quantity used for the main wash programme.
AA 40
This special programme has been created to allow you to
obtain the best washing performance with a full load, as the
60°C Colourfast, but with the advantage of the cycle being at
40°C. This gives energy savings by reducing the temperature
from 60°C to 40°C. The final spin speed is 1000rpm.
Synthetics and mixed fabrics
Washing and rinsing performance is optimised through drum
rotation speeds and water levels. The delicate spin action
minimises creasing. The 50°C programme includes a prewash
cycle. The final spin speed for the synthetics programme is
800rpm and for the Acrylics 400rpm.
Delicates
This is a new concept in washing, with a cycle that consists of
alternate periods of activity and pauses, particularly suitable
for washing very delicate fabrics. Washing and rinsing are
carried out using a high water level to provide the best results.
Rinse, Spin and Drain
Individual programmes are available for rinsing, (including the
opportunity to add fabric conditioner); spinning, at the
maximum spin speed; and draining the water from the
machine.
