WASH CYCLES
Follow the instructions on the symbols of the garment’s wash
care label. The value indicated in the symbol is the maximum
recommended temperature for washing the garment.
Anti-Stain
the programme is suitable to heavily-soiled garments with resistant colours.
It ensures a washing class that is higher than the standard class (A class).
When running the programme, do not mix garments of different colours.
We recommend the use of powder detergent. Pre-treatment with special
additives is recommended if there are obstinate stains.
Anti-Stain Quick
this programme is ideal for washing the most difficult daily stains in 1 hour. It is
ideal for mixed fabrics and coloured garments, caring for your clothes as it washes.
If the drying function is selected, a drying cycle automatically activates at
the end of the wash cycle that resembles open-air drying, with the added
advantages of preserving garments from yellowing due to sunlight
exposure and preventing loss of whiteness caused by the possible
presence of dust in the air. Drying cycles can only be selected on a level
basis. Dryness level “A2” recommended.
Whites
use this cycle to wash white clothes. The programme is designed to maintain
the brightness of white clothes over time. Use powder detergent for best
results.

Woolmark Apparel Care - Green
:
the wool wash cycle of this machine has been approved by The Woolmark
Company for the washing of wool garments labelled as “hand wash”
provided that the products are washed according to the instructions on
the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this washing
machine. (M1318)
Delicates
use programme to wash very delicate garments having strasses or
sequins.
We recommend turning the garments inside out before washing and
placing small items into the special bag for washing delicates. Use liquid
detergent on delicate garments for best results.
When selecting an exclusively time-based drying function, a drying cycle
is performed at the end of the wash cycle that is particularly delicate,
thanks to light handling and appropriate temperature control of the
water jet.
The recommended durations are:
1 kg of synthetic garments --> 150 min
1 kg of synthetic and cotton garments --> 180 min
1 kg of cotton garments --> 180 min
The degree of dryness depends on the load and fabric composition.
