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.
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle 2 with a temperature of 60°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments
which can be washed at 60°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
2) Test wash cycle in compliance with directive 1061/2010: set wash cycle 3 with a temperature of 40°C.
This cycle is designed for cotton loads with a normal soil level and is the most efficient in terms of both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments
which can be washed at 40°C. The actual washing temperature may differ from the indicated value.
For all Test Institutes:
2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle 3 with a temperature of 40°C.
3) Synthetic program along: set wash cycle 4 with a temperature of 40°C.
Sport Intensive (wash cycle 12) is for washing heavily soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best
results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the "Table of wash cycles".
Sport Light (wash cycle 13) is for washing lightly soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.); for best results,
we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the "Table of wash cycles". We recommend using a
liquid detergent and dosage suitable for a half-load.
Sport Shoes (wash cycle 14) is for washing sports shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2 pairs simultaneously.
The 20° wash cycles (20° Zone) offer effective washing performance at low temperatures, reducing electricity usage and
expenditure while benefitting the environment.The 20° wash cycles meet all requirements:
Cotton Standard 20° (programme 6) ideal for lightly soiled cotton loads. The effective performance levels achieved at cold
temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°, are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at varying
speed, with repeated and frequent peaks.
Mix Light (programme 7) ideal for mixed loads (cotton and synthetics) with a normal soil level. The effective performance
levels achieved at cold temperatures are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at varying speed, across set
average intervals.
20' Refresh (programme 8) ideal for refreshing and washing lightly soiled garments in a few minutes. It lasts just 20 minutes
and therefore saves both time and energy. It can be used to wash different types of fabrics together (except for wool and
silk), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.
