Wash options
Eco
The Eco option saves energy by not heating the water
used to wash your laundry – an advantage both to the
environment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified
wash action and water optimisation ensure great wash
results in the same average time of a standard cycle.
For the best washing results we recommend the usage of
a liquid detergent
! It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 2, 3,
7, 8, 9, 11, 13, 14, , .
By selecting the drying function as well, an automatic
drying cycle automatically activates at the end of the wash
cycle – it too allows for saving energy, thanks to the optimal
combination of air temperature and cycle duration.
! It can be activated with programmes 4 and 5.
Table of programmes and wash cycles
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
according 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.
