 According to regulation

1061/2010, these programmes are respectively the «Standard 60°C cotton programme» and the «Stand-
ard 40°C cotton programme». They are the most efficient programmes in terms of combined energy and
water consumption for washing normally soiled cotton laundry.

The water temperature of the washing phase may differ from the temperature declared
for the selected programme.

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.

ance can show the temperature setting as “cold”.

4) 

Press Extra Rinse button to add rinses. With a low spin speed the appliance performs delicate rinses.

and a short spin.

phase. The appliance adds some rinses.
