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
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
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
This is a new wash cycle which alternates washing and soaking and is
particularly recommended for very delicate fabrics. The wash cycle and
rinses are carried out with high water levels to ensure best results.
WOOL PROGRAMME
This programme is dedicated exclusively to “machine-washable” wool fabrics.
Matting and wear are minimised by sophisticated control of the drum
movement during the wash cycle.
The programme reaches a maximum temperature of 40°C and ends with 3
rinses and a delicate spin.
SPECIAL SILK PROGRAMME
This washing machine also has a gentle Silk and Hand Wash programme
cycle. This programme allows a complete washing cycle for garments
specified as ‘Hand Wash only’ and laundry items made from Silk on the
fabric label.
Thanks to the special drum movement during washing, it is possible to carry
out a complete washing cycle for hand-wash only garments.
Matting and wear are minimised by sophisticated control of the drum
movement during the wash cycle.
The programme has a maximum temperature of 30° and concludes with 3
rinses and no final spin.

Detergent drawer
The detergent drawer is split into 3 compartments:
- the compartment labelled "1" is for prewash detergent;
- the compartment labelled " " is for special additives,
fabric softeners, fragrances, starch, brighteners etc;
-the compartment labelled "2" is for main wash
detergent.
If liquid detergents are used, please insert the special
container supplied into the compartment marked “2” in the
detergent drawer. This ensures that the liquid detergent
enters the drum at the right stage of the wash cycle.
This special container must be inserted into the
compartment marked "2" in the detergent drawer, also
when you wish to use the "RINSE" programme as
BLEACHING cycle.
NOTE:
Some Detergents are Difficult to
utilise. Ensure to use an in drum
dispenser if recommended by
the detergent Manufacturer.
Note: only put liquid products in the compartment
labelled “ ”. The machine is programmed to
automatically take up additives during the final rinse
stage for all wash cycles.
