 Eco Wash

The  Eco  Wash  function  saves  energy  by  not  heating  the 

water used to wash your laundry – an advantage both to the 

environment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified wash 

action and water optimisation ensure great wash results in the 

same average time of a standard cycle. 

For the best washing 

results we recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.

The length of cycle shown on the display or in this booklet is an estimation only and is calculated assuming standard working conditions. The actual duration can vary according to factors such as 

water temperature and pressure, the amount of detergent used, the amount and type of load inserted, load balancing and any wash options selected.

 (1° press of the button) with a temperature of 60°C.

This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments 

which can be washed at 60°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
