Special wash cycles

Sanitizing cycle (wash cycle 6). A high-temperature hygienic wash cycle (over 60°C) which requires the use of bleach.

Pour the bleach, the detergent and the additives into the relevant compartments (see paragraph entitled

Detergent dispenser drawer).

Goodnight cycle (wash cycle 7). This is a silent cycle which can be run at night, when the electricity prices are lower.

The wash cycle is designed for cottons and synthetics. At the end of the cycle the machine stops while there is still water

in the drum; to spin and drain the laundry press the START/PAUSE button; alternatively the machine will perform the spin

cycle and drain the water automatically after 8 hours.

Baby cycle (wash cycle 8). This wash cycle can be used to remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while ensuring

that all detergent is removed from nappies in order to prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergies. The

cycle has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by using a greater quantity of water and optimising the effect

of special disinfecting additives added to the detergent.

At the end of the wash cycle, the machine will slowly rotate the drum to prevent the formation of creases; to end the cycle

press the START/PAUSE button.

Mix 30 (wash cycle 4) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 30 minutes and

therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (4 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics

together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg.

Mix 15 (wash cycle 5) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes and

therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (5 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics

together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.
