“Short”
For lightly soiled items. The length of
the main wash is shortened. An addi
-
tional reduction in temperature is not
recommended as this may lead to poor
wash results.
Selecting the spin speed
Setting the selector switch to the
highest setting saves energy if the laun-
dry is to be dried in a tumble dryer. The
spin speed in the “PERMANENT PRES-
S” and “WOOLENS” program is auto-
matically limited to 900 rpm, and in the
“FINE / DELICATES” program to
600 rpm.
“Without final spin”
If this option is selected, the laundry will
remain suspended in water at the end
of the program. This will help reduce
creasing when immediate unloading of
the drum is not possible.
To drain the water and complete the cy
-
cle, turn the spin speed selector from
“Without final spin” to the desired spin
speed. If spinning is not desired, turn
the program selector to “Drain”.
