Special programmes
Daily 30' 

(programme 8 for Synthetics) is designed to wash lightly soiled garments in a short amount of time: it

only lasts 36 minutes and allows you to save on both time and energy. By setting this programme (8 at 36˚C),
you can wash different fabrics together (except for woollen and silk items), with a maximum load of 3kg.

We recommend the use of liquid detergent.
