Specials wash cycles
Express (wash cycle 10) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes
and therefore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (10 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different
fabrics together (except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.
Sport Intensive (wash cycle 11) is for washing lightly soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best
results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the "Table of wash cycles". We recommend
using a liquid detergent and dosage suitable for a half-load.
Sport Light (wash cycle 12) is for washing lightly soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best
results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the "Table of wash cycles". We recommend
using a liquid detergent and dosage suitable for a half-load.
Sport Shoes (wash cycle 13) is for washing sports shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs
simultaneously.
Anticrease
This function interrupts the wash programme, and the washing is left to soak in water before the appliance is
drained. It can only be used with programme 8 (Silk/Curtains) and helps to prevent the formation of creases. To
complete the cycle press the START/PAUSE button.
