Steam programmes4)

Steam can be used for dried, washed or worn once laundry. These programmes can

reduce creases and odours and make your laundry more soft.

Do not use any detergent. If necessary, remove stains by washing or using localized

stain removal.

Steam programmes do not perform any hygienic cycle.

Do not set a Steam programme with these types of items:

• items where it is not specified on the care label as being suitable for tumble drying.

• all items with plastic, metal, wooden parts or alike.

1.5 kg Steam programme for cottons. This cycle helps

1) Standard programmes for the Energy Label consumption values. According to regu-

lation 1061/2010, these programmes are respectively the «Standard 60°C cotton programme»

and the «Standard 40°C cotton programme». They are the most efficient programmes in terms

of combined energy and water consumption for washing normally soiled cotton laundry.

The water temperature of the washing phase may differ from the temperature de-

clared for the selected programme.

2) During this cycle the drum rotates slowly to ensure a gentle washing. It can seem that the

drum doesn't rotate or doesn't rotate properly. Consider this as a normal functioning of the ap-

pliance.

3) Set the spin speed. Make sure it agrees with the laundry. If you set No Spin option the only

drain phase is available.

4) If you set a Steam programme with dried laundry, at the end of the cycle the laundry could

be humid. It is better to expose the items to the fresh air for about 10 minutes to let the humid-

ity dry. When the programme is completed, quickly remove the laundry from the drum. After a

steam cycle, items may to be ironed anyway, but with less effort!

5) Steam does not remove animal odours.

6. CONSUMPTION VALUES

The data of this table are approximate. Different causes can change the

data: the quantity and type of laundry, the water and ambient temperature.

At programme start the display shows the duration programme for the

maximum load capacity.

During the washing phase the programme duration is automatically calcu-

lated and can be greatly reduced if the laundry load is lower than the maxi-

mum load capacity (e.g. Cotton 60°C, maximum load capacity 7 kg, the

programme duration exceeds 2 hours; real load 1 kg, the programme du-

ration don’t reach 1 hour).

When the appliance is calculating the real programme duration a dot blinks

in the display.
