PROGRAMMES
For choosing the appropriate programme for your kind of
laundry, always respect the instructions on the care labels
of the laundry. The value given in the tub symbol is the
maximum temperature possible for washing the garment.
Mixed
For washing lightly to normally soiled resilient garments in cotton, linen,
synthetic fibres and mixed fibres.
White
For washing normally to heavily soiled towels, underwear, table and bed
linen, etc in resilient cotton and linen. Only when the temperature is
selected at 90°C the cycle is provided with a prewash phase before main
washing phase. In this case it is recommended to add detergent both, in
the prewash and main wash section.
Cotton
Normally to heavily soiled and robust cottons .
eCotton
For washing normally soiled cotton garments. At 40°c and 60°C, this is the
standard cotton programme and the most efficient in terms of water and
energy consumption.
Sport

results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in
the ‚‘‘PROGRAMME CHART‘‘. We recommend using liquid detergent , and
adding the amount suitable for half-load.

duvets, cushions and anoraks. It is recommended to load such padded
items in the drum with the edges folded inwards and not to exceed ¾ of
the drum’s volume. For optimal washing, we recommend using a liquid
detergent.

minutes, saving time and energy.
Colours 15°
This cycle helps protect colours by washing in cold water (15°C) and uses
less energy to heat the water while still offering satisfactory wash results.
Suitable for lightly soiled, ustained garments. This cycle offers wash
results comparable to 40°c mixed at just 15°C
