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) Do not use any detergent for prewash phase to rinse only with water.
