4.5 Main programmes
Depending on the type of fabric, use the following main
programmes.
• Cottons
Use this programme for your cotton laundry (such as bed
sheets, duvet and pillowcase sets, towels, bathrobes,
underwear, etc.). Your laundry will be washed with vigorous
washing action for a longer washing cycle.
• Synthetics
Use this programme to wash your synthetic clothes (shirts,
blouses, synthetic/cotton blends, etc.). It washes with a
gentle action and has a shorter washing cycle compared to
the Cotton programme.
For curtains and tulle, use the Synthetic 40˚C programme
with prewash and anti-creasing functions selected. As their
meshed texture causes excessive foaming, wash the veils/
tulle by putting little amount of detergent into the main
wash compartment. Do not put detergent in the prewash
compartment.
• Woollens
Use this programme to wash your woolen clothes. Select
the appropriate temperature complying with the tags of your
clothes. Use appropriate detergents for woolens.
“The Wool wash cycle of this machine has been tested
and approved by
The Woolmark Company
for the washing of Woolmark garments labelled as
“machine wash” provided that the garments are
washed according to the instructions on the garment
label and those issued by the manufacturer of this
washing machine.
“In UK, Eire, Hong Kong and India the Woolmark trade
mark is a Certification trade mark.”
• smartsense (Automatic Programme)
Use this programme to wash your frequently washable
cotton, synthetic or blended (cotton+synthetic) clothes.
Programme detects the type and quantity of the laundry to
automatically adjust water consumption and programme
time.
A
warning
: Do not wash your woolen and delicate clothes
in this programme.
If the temperature read on the temperature display does
not conform to the garment's washing instructions,
select a temperature in accordance with the washing
instruction for the garment.
The maximum washing temperature in Automatic
programme depending on the soiling level and laundry
type is 60ºC. Washing performance may not be at the
desired level for heavily soiled whites and stubborn stains
(collar, sock soil, perspiration stain, etc.). In this case, it is
recommended to select Cottons programme with prewash
and set the temperature to 50-60°C.
Many types of clothing are correctly detected and safely
washed in Automatic programme.
Suitable clothes and the appropriate Automatic programme settings for washing them are shown in the table below.
