Eco Wash cycles
The Eco Cycles assure energy saving by eliminating the need of heating water and it’s an advantage both to your ener-
gy bill and the environment!
These innovative Eco programmes (Cotton, Synthetics and Fast Wash) are available for various fabrics and diffe-
rent quantity of garment; they have been designed to guarantee a high cleaning action even at low temperature
and can be used for lightly to medium soiled loads.
Eco Cycles give the best results thanks to an intensified wash action, water optimization and are carried out in
the same average time of a standard cycle.
For the best washing results with Eco programmes we recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.
The information contained in the table is intended as a guide only.
