Cotton 20°C
(programme
12
) ideal for lightly soiled cotton
loads. The effective performance levels achieved at cold
temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°, are
guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at varying
speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.
Eco Synthetic 20°C
(programme
13
) ideal for mixed
loads (cotton and synthetics) with a normal soil level. The
effective performance levels achieved at cold temperatures
are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at
varying speed, across set average intervals.
Rapid
(programme
14
)
allows for varying the garment
treatment duration from 9’ to 1h. Pressing the corresponding
“Rapid” button allows for varying the cycle duration between
9’ (refresh), 30’ (wash), 1h (wash). The 9’ cycle refreshes
garments using fabric softener only;
it is advisable not to
add any detergent into the machine
. The 30’ programme
is designed to wash lightly soiled garments at 30° (excluding
wool and silk) with a 3 kg maximum load in a short time:
it only lasts 30 minutes and allows for saving time and
energy. The “1h” cycle is designed to wash moderately
soiled resistant cotton garments at 60° in an hour, with good
washing performance. For synthetic or mixed garments, we
recommend lowering the temperature down to 40°.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations before
every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the
drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater
than the washing rotation speed. If, after several attempts,
the load is not balanced correctly, the machine spins at a
reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced,
the washing machine performs the distribution process
instead of spinning. To encourage improved load distribution
and balance, we recommend small and large garments are
mixed in the load.
