Function included
– Function not included
1)
A 4th rinse
automatically switches in if there is too much foam in the drum, or if a spin speed
lower than 800 rpm has been selected.
2)
Increasing the water level:
The water level can be increased from a low level to a higher level by pressing the “Water plus”
button.
Top-up rinse:
Additional water flows into the drum, and the suds are cooled slightly. Hot water might damage
plastic drain pipes.
Graduated rinsing:
The suds are cooled at the end of the wash cycle by water flowing in and being pumped away at
intervals. This minimises the danger of creasing, by avoiding sudden temperature changes.
WOOL:
Wool is susceptible to damage from movement when it is wet. Drum movement times during the
programm are shorter, and the drum rotates more slowly.
