7 OPTIONS button
Press this button to select the following options:
• SUPER RINSE: this option can be selected with all
programmes except the wool programme and hand
wash. The machine performs 4 rinses instead of 3.

very soft.
• AA 40°: this option can be selected for cottons and
synthetics lightly or normally soiled with a
temperature of 40°C or higher.
If you select 40°C together with option AA 40°, the
