Programme selector
For the various types of fabrics and various degrees of dirt the washing machine has 4
different programme bands according to: wash cycle, temperature and lenght of cycle (see
table of washing cycle programmes).
1 Resistants Fabrics COTTON
The programmes have been designed for a maximum wash and the rinses, with spin
intervals, ensure perfect rinsing.
The final spin gives more efficient removal of water.
2 Mixed and Synthetic Fabrics SYNTHETICS
The main wash and the rinse gives best results thanks to the rotation rhythms of the drum
and to the water levels.
A gentle spin will mean that the fabrics become less creased.
3 Special Delicate Fibres DELICATES
This is a new wash cycle which alternates washing and soaking and is particularly
recommended for very delicate fabrics such as Pure Machine Washable Wool. The wash
cycle and rinses are carried out with high water levels to ensure best results.
4. SPECIALS
HAND WASH 30°C
This washing machine also has a gentle Hand Wash programme cycle. This programme
allows a complete washing cycle for garments specified as “Hand Wash only” on the fabric
care label. The programme has a temperature of 30°C and concludes with 2 rinses and a
slow spin.
SPECIAL “RINSE” PROGRAMME
This programme carries out three rinses with a spin at 800 rpm (which can be reduced or
excluded by using the variable spin speed selector). It can be used for rinsing any type of
fabric, eg. use after hand-washing.
SPECIAL “FAST SPIN” PROGRAMME
Programme “FAST SPIN” carries out a spin at 1500 rpm (which can be reduced by using the
variable spin speed selector).
DRAIN ONLY
This programme drains out the water.

32 MINUTE RAPID PROGRAMME 50°C
The 32 minute rapid programme allows a complete washing cycle to be carried out in
approximately 30 minutes, with up to a maximum load of 2 kg and a temperature of 50°C.
The maximum quantity of detergent that can be used is marked on the enclosed 32 minute
gauge. The detergent must be placed in the main wash compartment (marked II) in the
detergent dispenser.
Main wash
Automatic Variable Capacity
The washing machine is fitted with an automatic reduction in consumption system (known as
Automatic Variable Capacity).
This system enables the machine to use the amount of water needed to wash and rinse the
laundry in relation to the particular load.
This results in a reduction in the amount of water used and electricity needed to heat it to the
minimum required, without in any way compromising the washing and rinsing performance.
In fact the amount of water and electricity used will always be appropriate for the amount of
washing.
The washing machine therefore ensures you achieve excellent washing results whilst
respecting the environment and saving you money.
