Wash options

The option optimises washing to suit the quantity of
laundry loaded into the machine, thereby reducing the overall
wash cycle duration while minimising water and energy
consumption. Press the
wash cycle desired:
Intense: vigorous wash cycle for garments with a heavy soil level.
Perform: standard wash cycle for garments with a normal
soil level.
Fast: quick wash cycle for garments with a light soil level.
! This may only be used in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 2,
3, 4 (all three levels) and 5, 6 (Perform and Fast levels).
Easy iron
By selecting this function, the wash and spin cycles will be modified
in order to reduce the formation of creases. At the end of the cycle
the washer-dryer will perform slow rotations of the drum, while the
EASY IRON and START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash (blue and
orange respectively). To end the cycle, press the START/PAUSE
button or the EASY IRON button. For wash cycles number 8,
the machine will end the cycle while the laundry is soaking; the
EASY IRON and START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash. To
drain the water so that the laundry may be removed, press the
START/PAUSE button or the EASY IRON button.

Note: If you also want to run the drying cycle, this option is
enabled only if combined with level "A1" (Iron dry).
Cool Wash
The Cool Wash function saves energy by not heating the
water used to wash your laundry – an advantage both to
the environment 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.
! It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles
6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,
Delayed start
To set a delayed start for the selected cycle, press the
corresponding button repeatedly until the required delay
period has been reached. When this option is enabled, the
corresponding indicator light will remain lit. To remove the
delayed start setting, press the button until the text "OFF"
appears on the display.
! This option can be used in conjunction with all cycles.
