will remain active.

• Prelavaggio (Prewash)
A pre-wash is only worthwhile for heavily soiled
laundry. Without pre-wash you save energy,
water, detergent and time. Pre-wash without
detergent is recommended for lace and curtains.
• Quick Wash
This function can be used for cottons and
synthetics programs. It decreases the washing
times for lightly soiled laundries and also the
number of rinsing steps. Shortens the program
time approximately 45 minutes.
• Risciacquo Aggiuntivo (Rinse Plus)
With this function, you can increase the number
of current rinsing steps. Thus, sensitive skins’
risk of being affected by the remainder detergent
on the clothes will be decreased.
• Anti-Creasing
This function reduces drum movement and
limits the spinning speed to prevent creasing. In
addition, washing is carried out at a higher water
level.

Use this function for delicate laundries that
crease easily.

synthetics, woolen or delicate programs.
• Spin speed reduction
You may use the speed reduction button
whenever you wish to spin your clothes below
the maximum spin speed. When speed reduction
button is pressed, spin speed will be at the
minimum rpm given on the panel.
