3) The wash and spin phase is soft to prevent the creases of the laundry. The appliance adds some rinses.

4) The default phase of the spin speed is related to cotton items. Set the spin speed. Make sure that it agrees with

the laundry. To select the DRAIN programme only, set the function NO SPIN.

5) Press EXTRA RINSE button to add rinses. With a low spin speed the appliance performs delicate rinses and a

short spin.

6) Set this programme to decrease the time and the consumption of energy and water.

7) Standard programmes for the Energy Label consumption values] according to regulation 1061/2010, the

“Baumwolle Eco/ Coton Eco 60° C” and “Baumwolle Eco/ Coton Eco 40° C” 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.

Set this programme to have a good washing results and decrease the energy consumption. The time of the

creases and odours and make your laundry more smooth.

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

moval.

Steam programmes do not perform any hygienic cycle.

1) If you set a Steam programme with dried laundry, at the end of the cycle the laundry feels humid. It is better to

expose clothes to the fresh air for about 10 minutes to let the humidity dry. Laundry should be removed from the

drum as quick as possible. After a steam cycle, clothes may to be ironed anyway, but with less effort!
