WASH CYCLES
Follow the instructions on the symbols of the garment’s wash
care label. The value indicated in the symbol is the maximum
recommended temperature for washing the garment.
Daily Mix Wash&Dry
use programme 1 to wash and dry mixed garments (cotton and
synthetics). This cycle may be used to wash and dry loads of up to 3,5 kg;
we recommend the use of liquid detergent.
The use of the steam in this programme is optimised to reduce the
formation of creases on garments, making them easier to iron.
Shirts&T-Shirts
Use programme 2 to wash and dry shirts and T-shirts in different fabrics
and colours to ensure maximum care. This cycle may be used to wash and
dry loads of up to 2 kg. To achieve optimum results, use liquid detergent
and pre-treat cuffs, collars and stains. The use of the steam in this
programme is optimised to reduce the formation of creases on garments,
making them easier to iron.
Pre Iron
Use this programme immediately before ironing; max. 1,5 kg load. The
use of the steam in this programme is optimised to reduce the formation
of creases on garments, making them easier to iron.
Steam Refresh
For refreshing garments, neutralised unpleasant odours and relaxing the
fibres by delivering steam into the drum. The garments will be damp at
the end of the cycle.
Cotton
Suitable for washing towels, underwear, table cloths, etc. made of
resistant linen and cotton that are moderately to heavily soiled.
Synthetic
Suitable for washing moderately soiled garments made of synthetic fibres
(e.g. polyester, polyacrylic, viscose, etc.) or mixed synthetic-cotton fibres.
Antistain Quick
This cycle is ideal for washing daily stains in 45’. It is ideal for mixed fabrics
and coloured garments.
If the drying option is selected, a drying cycle automatically activates at
the end of the wash cycle that resembles open-air drying, with the added
advantages of preserving garments from yellowing due to sunlight
exposure and preventing loss of whiteness caused by the possible
presence of dust in the air. Dryness level “A2” recommended.
Antistain 100
This cycle is suitable to heavily-soiled garments with resistant colours. It
ensures a washing class that is higher than the standard class (A class).
When running the programme, do not mix garments of different colours.
We recommend the use of powder detergent. Pre-treatment with special
additives is recommended if there are obstinate stains.
If the drying option is selected, a drying cycle automatically activates at
the end of the wash cycle that resembles open-air drying, with the added
advantages of preserving garments from yellowing due to sunlight
exposure and preventing loss of whiteness caused by the possible
presence of dust in the air. Dryness level “A2” recommended.
White
For heavily soiled whites and resistant colours.
Eco Cotton
Suitable for washing moderately soiled cotton garments. At 40°C and
60°C it is
the standard cycle for washing cotton garments, and is the most
efficient in terms of combined water and electricity consumption.
Coloureds
For washing coloured cotton garments. This programme is optimised to
keep colours bright even after repeated washing.
Ultradelicates
For washing very delicate garmen
ts. It is advisable to turn the garments
inside out before washing them. For best results, use liquid detergent on
delicate garments.
When selecting an exclusively time-based drying function, a drying cycle
is performed at the end of the wash cycle that is particularly delicate,
thanks to light handling and appropriate temperature control of the
water jet.
The recommended durations are:
1 kg of synthetic garments --> 150 min
1 kg of synthetic and cotton garments --> 180 min
1 kg of cotton garments --> 180 min
The degree of dryness depends on the load and fabric composition.
Wool - Woolmark Apparel Care - Green:
The Wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved
by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool
garments labelled as “hand wash” provided that the
products are washed according to the instructions on the
garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of
this washer-dryer (M1318). The Woolmark logo is a
Certification mark in many countries.
Fast 30’
For washing lightly soiled garments in a short time. Not suitable for wool,
silk and garments to be washed by hand.
Rinse
Designed for rinsing and spinning.
Spin+Pump out
Designed for spinning and draining the water.
DISPLAY
The display is useful when programming the washer-dryer and provides
plenty of information.
Section A displays the duration of the various available wash cycles and,
once the cycle starts, the time remaining to the latter’s end (the display will
show the maximum duration of the selected cycle which may decrease
after a few minutes, as the actual duration varies in relation to the laundry
load and the chosen settings); if the DELAY option was set, the display will
show the time remaining to the start of the selected wash cycle.
Moreover, pressing the relative button allows for visualising the maximum
values for the temperature, spin speed or type of drying relative to the
selected programme or the most recently selected ones, if compatible
with the selected programme.
The “washing phases” relative to the selected cycle and the “washing
phase” of the running cycle appear in section B:
Wash
Rinse
Spin/Drain
Drying
Section C displays – starting from the left – the icons corresponding to
“temperature”, “spin” and “delay start”.
The “temperature” bars
indicate the maximum temperature level
that can be selected for the chosen cycle.
The “spin” bars
indicate the maximum spin speed that can be
selected for the chosen cycle.
The
symbol lights up while the drying settings are being adjusted.
Locked door indicator
When lit, the symbol indicates that the door is locked. To prevent any
