Night Option Button
Press this button to reduce the intermediate spin speed to 400 rpm, where applicable; the
water level is increased during rinsing and the washing is kept immersed in water after the
final rinse in order to spread the fibres evenly.
During the phase in which the water is held in the tub, the indicator lights to show that the
machine is at a standstill.
Release the button to end the cycle with a spin dry (which may be reduced or cancelled
using the appropriate button) and emptying phase.
Thanks to electronic control, the water in the intermediate phases is emptied silently, making
this option very useful for washing at night.
“Wash Temperature” button
The Wash Temperature button allows a reduction in the wash temperature in each
programme.
Each time the button is pressed the temperature decreases by 10°C until a minimum of 15°C
(cold wash).
“Allergie” button
By pressing this button you can activate a special new wash cycle in the Colourfast and Mixed
Fabrics programs, thanks to the new Sensor Activa System. This option treats with care the fibres
of garments and the delicate skin of those who wear them.
The load is washed in a much larger quantity of water and this, together with the new combined
action of the drum rotation cycles, where water is filled and emptied, will give you garments which
have been cleaned and rinsed to perfection. The amount of water in the wash is increased so that
the detergent dissolves perfectly, ensuring an efficient cleaning action. The amount of water is also
increased during the rinse procedure so as to remove all traces of detergent from the fibres. This
function has been specifically designed for people with delicate and sensitive skin, for whom even
a very small amount of detergent can cause irritation or allergy.
You are advised to also use this function for children’s clothing and for delicate fabrics in general,
or when washing garments made of towelling, where the fibres tend to absorb a greater quantity of
detergent. To ensure the best performance for your wash, this function is always activated on the
Delicates and Woollens programs.
