Display information
When the machine is switched on, the display visualises
the duration (hours/minutes) and maximum spin speed
envisaged for the programme. These two parameters are
displayed alternatively for 3 seconds each, together with
their relative LED's, until the selected programme starts.
Attention!
•
The following partial washing programmes can be set
using the programmes knob:
-Rinse with additive
-Drain and spin
-Fabric softener
These partial programmes are inside the Cotton, Synthetics and Wool sectors, except for the drain and spin
programme (Drain
)
.
•
If the indicated temperature shows 0°, this means that the programme performs a cold wash cycle. The same
cold wash is also performed by the
Hand wash
programme in the Wool sector.
•
The fabric treatment labels show which washing temperature must be set.
•
If various garments in the same load require different washing temperatures, choose the lowest wash-
ing temperature of all.
•
If the laundry is only slightly dirty and does not need the bleaching effect of high temperatures,
a lower tem-
perature can be chosen to save power.
In spite of the low temperature and consequent saving of electric-
ity, an automatic time control keeps the duration of the main washing unvaried compared with that of a high
temperature programme. It is therefore possible to successfully wash
normally dirty laundry at lower wash-
ing temperatures
than the maximum temperatures shown on the fabric care labels.
