and it is particularly useful for heavily
soiled loads (can be used only on some
programmes as shown in the table of
programmes).
We recommend you use only 20% of the

recommended quantities shown on the
detergent pack.
- EXTRA RINSE
This option allows you to add one rinse at

the end of the washing cycle and is useful
for people with delicate and sensitive
skin, for which a small amount of
detergent residue can cause irritations or
allergies.
It is advisable to also use this function for

lot of detergent to be used, or for the
washing of toweling items whose fibres
mostly have the tendency to hold the
detergent.
