Wash cycles and options
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
button to select the type of
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, 5 (all three levels) and 6, 7, 8 (Perform and Fast levels).
Extra Rinse
By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased
and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly
useful for sensitive skin.
! It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 8, , .
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 washing machine 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 10-12, 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.
! It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 8, 9,
13,
, .
Intensive Wash
This function is particularly
useful for the removal of
stubborn stains. Insert extra
compartment 4 (supplied
with the appliance) into
compartment 1. When
pouring in the bleach, be
careful not to exceed the
“max” level marked on the
central pivot (see figure). To
bleach laundry with no other
washing action, pour the bleach into extra compartment
4, select the “Rinse” cycle
and activate the “Intensive
Wash” option
. To bleach during a wash cycle, pour in
the detergent and any fabric softener you wish to use,
select the desired wash cycle and enable the “Intensive
Wash”
option. The use of extra compartment 4
excludes the pre-wash function.
! It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 6, 8,
9, 10, 11, 12, 13,
