Sport
This option allows for selecting the most suitable programme for any type of sports clothing, and is designed to remove dirt
while optimally preserving the technical features of the garments. The various Sport option levels offer the following wash cycles:
- Sport Shoes, a cycle designed to safely wash up to 2 pairs of sports shoes simultaneously.
- Gym Kit, a cycle designed to simultaneously wash any type of sports clothing together with gym towels.
- Technical Wear, designed for specifically washing waterproof garments or clothing with special technical fibres like
Gore-Tex, so as to optimise washing performance while preserving their technical properties over time. Do not use fabric
softeners for garments with technical fibres.
! It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14- - .
Fast Forward
During a wash programme and under certain conditions, pressing this button allows for ending the wash programme after
only 20’ if necessary, by performing a brief rinse cycle followed by a spin cycle at maximum 800 rpm or lower, if reduced
manually during the programme customisation phase. In this case, washing and rinsing performance will be reduced. After
pressing the button, the relative indicator light turns on together with the indicator light of the rinse phase. If the selected
temperature is equal to 40° and/or the button is pressed during the initial phase of the programme, the “Fast Forward” option
lasts longer so that the detergent can dissolve properly and avoid damaging the fabrics. In this case, the rinse phase indica-
tor light flashes while the wash indicator light remains fixed until the necessary activation conditions are fulfilled. If less than
20’ remain of the wash programme, the option will be disabled.
! It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 2-4-5-6-13-14- - .
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 indica-
tor lights will flash and the led will remain lit in a fixed manner. To end the cycle, press the START/PAUSE button or the
EASY IRON button.

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.
