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.
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle 2 with a temperature of 60°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. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
2) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle 3 with a temperature of 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 40°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
For all Test Institutes:
2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle 3 with a temperature of 40°C.
3) Synthetic program along: set wash cycle 4 with a temperature of 40°C.
Mix 15'(wash cycle 5) 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 (5 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together
(except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.
Goodnigt cycle (wash cycle 6). This is a silent cycle which can be run at night, when the electricity prices are lower. The
wash cycle is designed for cottons and synthetics. At the end of the cycle the machine stops while there is still water in the
drum; to spin and drain the laundry press the START/PAUSE button; alternatively the machine will perform the spin cycle and
drain the water automatically after 8 hours.
Cotton Standard 20° (programme 10) ideal for heavily soiled cotton loads. The effective performance levels achieved
at cold temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°, are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at
varying speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.
Eco cycles
The Eco Cycles assure energy saving by eliminating the need of heating water and it's an advantage both to your
energy bill and the environment! These innovative Eco programmes (Cotton 11, Synthetics 12 and Fast Wash 13) are
available for various fabrics and different quantity of garment; they have been designed to guarantee a high cleaning
action even at low temperature and can be used for lightly to medium soiled loads.
Eco Cycles give the best results thanks to an intensified wash action, water optimization and are carried out in the
same average time of a standard cycle.
For the best washing results with Eco Cycles we recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.
