Special programmes

Class A at 40°C Margherita has a special programme to allow you to obtain optimum results even at low temperatures.

By setting programme 4 at a temperature of 40° C, the results you will obtain will be the same as you would normally obtain at 60°C

thanks to the washer-dryers action and the length of the wash cycle.

Daily wash Margherita has a programme available for the washing of lightly soiled garments in a short amount of time.

By setting programme 8 at a temperature of 30°C, you can wash different types of fabrics together (except for wool and silk), with a

maximum load of 3 kg. This programmes allows you to save on both time and energy as it only lasts around 30 minutes.

WE RECOMMEND THE USE LIQUID DETERGENT.

MAXIMISE THE LOAD SIZE

Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the

recommended maximum load size.

SAVE up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.

DO YOU NEED TO PRE-WASH?

For heavily soiled laundry only!

SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by

NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.

IS A HOT WASH REQUIRED?

Pretreat stains with stain remover or soak dried in stains in water before

washing to reduce the necessity of a hot wash programme.

SAVE up to 50% energy by using a 60°C wash programme.

BEFORE USING A DRYING PROGRAMME ...

SAVE energy and time by selecting a high spin speed to reduce the water

content in laundry before using a drying programme.
