For all Test Institutes: 1) Test wash cycle in compliance with regulation EN 50229: set wash cycle with a temperature of 60°C. 2) Long wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle with a temperature of 40°C. 3) Short wash cycle for cottons: set wash cycle with a temperature of 40°C. Wash options This option offers a high-performance wash due to the greater quantity of water used in the initial phase of the cycle, and due to the increased wash cycle duration, is particularly useful for the removal of stubborn stains. If you desire 1 bleaching, insert the extra tray compartment (3) into 2 compartment 1. When pouring in the bleach, be careful not to exceed the “max” level marked on the central pivot (see figure). To bleach laundry without carrying out a full wash cycle, pour the bleach into the extra compartment 3, select the "Rinse" cycle and activate the "Super Wash" option . To end the cycle press the START/PAUSE button or the “Easy Iron” button. For the Silk wash cycle, the machine will end the cycle while the laundry is soaking and the “Easy Iron” indicator light will flash. To drain the water so that the laundry may be removed, press the START/PAUSE button or the “Easy Iron” button. Note: If you also want to run the drying cycle, this option is enabled only if combined with level “Iron” (L1). If you select this option, the wash cycle duration will be reduced by 30%-50%, depending on the selected cycle, thereby guaranteeing simultaneous water and energy saving. Time Saver By selecting this option, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases. At the end of the cycle the washer-dryer drum will rotate slowly; the “Easy Iron” and START/PAUSE Easy Iron By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal residual detergent removal is guaranteed. We recommend this option is used with a full load of washing, or when a large amount of detergent is required. Extra rinse 7 Detergents and laundry EN Detergent The type and quantity of detergent required depend on the type of fabric you are washing (cotton, wool, silk, etc. ), as well as its colour, the washing temperature, the level of soiling and the hardness of the water in the area. Measuring out the detergent carefully will avoid wastage and help to protect the environment: although they are biodegradable, detergents still contain ingredients which alter the balance of nature. We recommend the following: • use powder detergents for white cotton garments and pre-washing. • use liquid detergents for delicate cotton garments and for all low-temperature wash cycles. The detergent should be poured into the relevant compartment - or the dispenser placed directly inside the drum - before the wash cycle begins. [. . . ] Sometimes, small items (such as coins or buttons) may fall into the protective pre-chamber at the base of the pump. 10 Trouble shooting Your washer-dryer could occasionally fail to work.
