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.

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 6 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.
