there is no softener residue in the detergent

dispenser.

Outdoor clothing, technical, sport fabrics, waterproof and
breathable jackets, shell jackets with a removable fleece or
inner insulation

. The recommended laundry load is 2,5 kg.

This programme can also be used as water-repellent restoring
cycle, specifically tailored for treating clothes with a hydropho-
bic coating. To perform the water-repellent restoring cycle,
proceed as follows:
• Pour the washing detergent in the compartment 

.

drawer compartment for fabric softener 

Manual

.

• Reduce the laundry load to 1 kg.

To further improve the water-repellent restor-

ing action, dry the laundry in a tumble dryer by

setting the Outdoor drying programme (if

available and if the garment care label permits

tumble drying).

Easy Iron

Synthetic items requiring a gentle wash

. Normal and light

soil.

2)

Spin/Drain

All fabrics, except woollens and delicate fabrics

. To spin the

laundry and to drain the water in the drum.

1) 

During this cycle the drum rotates slowly to ensure a gentle wash. It can seem that the drum doesn't

rotate or doesn't rotate properly, but this is normal for this programme.

2) 

To reduce creasing, this cycle regulates the water temperature and performs a soft wash and spin

phase. The appliance adds some rinses.
