COLD WASH button
By pressing this button it is possible to transform every programme into a cold washing one,
without modifying other characteristics (water level, times, rythmes, etc...).
Curtains, small carpets, man made delicate fabrics, non coulor fast garments can be safely
washed thanks to this new device.
D
The option buttons should be selected before pressing
the "Start/Pause" button.
STAIN BLASTER Button
By pressing this button, which can only be activated in the Cotton cycles, the sensors in the
new system come into operation. They affect both the selected temperature, keeping it at a
constant level throughout the wash cycle, and the mechanical function of the drum.
The drum is made to turn at two different speeds at crucial moments. When the detergent
enters the garments, the drum rotates in such a way that the detergent is distributed in a
uniform manner; during the wash and rinse procedures, however, the speed increases in
order to maximise the cleaning action. Thanks to this special system, the efficiency of the
wash procedure is improved WITHOUT ANY INCREASE IN THE LENGTH OF THE
PROGRAM.
