Wash cycles
Table of wash cycles
Cotton Standard 20° (wash cycle 4). Ideal for heavily soiled cotton loads. The effective performance levels achieved at cold
temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°, are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at varying
speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.
Mix 30’ (wash cycle 6) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 30 minutes and the-
refore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (6 at 30°C), it is possible to wash different fabrics together
(except for wool and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg.
Mix 15’(wash cycle 7) this wash cycle was designed to wash lightly soiled garments quickly: it lasts just 15 minutes and the-
refore saves both energy and time. By selecting this wash cycle (7 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.
Sanitizing cycle (wash cycle 8). A high-temperature hygienic wash cycle (over 60°C) which requires the use of bleach. Pour
the bleach, the detergent and the additives into the relevant compartments (see paragraph entitled “Detergent dispenser
drawer”).
Goodnigt cycle (wash cycle 9). This is a silent cycle which can be run at night, when the electricity prices are lower. The
wash cycle is designed for cottons and synthetics. At the end of the cycle the machine stops while there is still water in the
drum; to spin and drain the laundry press the START/PAUSE button; alternatively the machine will perform the spin cycle and
drain the water automatically after 8 hours.
Baby cycle (wash cycle 10). This wash cycle can be used to remove the soiling typically caused by babies, while ensuring
that all detergent is removed from nappies in order to prevent the delicate skin of babies from suffering allergies. The cycle
has been designed to reduce the amount of bacteria by using a greater quantity of water and optimising the effect of special
disinfecting additives added to the detergent.
At the end of the wash cycle, the machine will slowly rotate the drum to prevent the formation of creases; to end the cycle
press the START/PAUSE button.
The length of cycle shown on the display or in this booklet is an estimation only and is calculated assuming standard working conditions. The actual duration can vary accor-
ding to factors such as water temperature and pressure, the amount of detergent used, the amount and type of load inserted, load balancing and any wash options selected.
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle with a temperature of 60°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments which can be
washed at 60°C . The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
2) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle with a temperature of 40°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments which can be
washed at 40°C . The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
For all Test Institutes:
2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle
with a temperature of 40°C.
3) Long wash cycle for synthetics: set wash cycle 5 with a temperature of 40°C.
