In this case, energy and water consumption will decrease more, providing a more economic wash. This programme is available in the models with the remaining time indicator. • Antiallergico (Anti Allergy) Use this programme for your laundry for which you require an anti-allergic and hygienic washing at high temperature with intensive and long washing cycle. • Delicati 20° (Delicate 20°) Use it to wash your delicate laundry.

Whenever a programme is selected, if a relevant auxiliary function is selected its related indicator light will illuminate. Indicator lights of the auxiliary functions that are not allowed to be selected with the current programme will flash and an audio warning is given.
