Programme description
Outdoor
Do not use fabric softener and make sure that
there is no softener residue in the detergent dis‐
penser.
Outdoor clothing, technical, sport fabrics, waterproof and breath‐
able jackets, shell jackets with a removable fleece or inner insu‐
lation. 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 hydrophobic
coating. To perform the water-repellent restoring cycle, proceed
as follows:
• Pour the washing detergent in the compartment
.
• Pour a special water-repellent restorer for fabric in the draw‐
er compartment for fabric softener .
• Reduce the laundry load to 1 kg.
To further improve the water-repellent restoring
action, dry the laundry in a tumble dryer by set‐
ting the Outdoor drying programme (if available
and if the garment care label permits tumble
drying).
Hygiene
White cotton items. This high-performance wash programme
combined with steam vapour, removes more than 99,99% of
bacteria and viruses
2)
keeping the temperature above 60°C
throughout the washing phase; with an additional action on the
fibers thanks to a vapour phase, an enhanced rinsing phase en‐
sures a proper removal of detergent and micro-organism resi‐
dues. This programme ensures also a proper reduction of pol‐
lens/allergenic items.
Machine clean
Maintenance cycle with hot water to clean and freshen the drum
and to remove residue that may cause odour. Before running
this cycle, remove all items from the drum. In the washing phase
compartment of the detergent dispenser, put the flap of the com‐
partment in upward position. Pour a cup of chlorine bleach or a
washing machine cleaner in the washing phase compartment of
the detergent dispenser. DO NOT use both together
3)

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) Tested for Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecium, Candida albicans, Pseudomonas aerugino‐
sa and MS2 Bacteriophage in external test performed by Swissatest Testmaterialien AG in 2021 (Test
Report No. 202120117).
