Cotton 20°C (programme 12) ideal for lightly soiled
GB
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.
Eco Synthetic 20°C (programme 13) 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.
Rapid (programme 14) allows for varying the garment
treatment duration from 9' to 1h. Pressing the
corresponding "Rapid" button allows for varying the cycle
duration between 9' (refresh), 30' (wash), 1h (wash).
The 9' cycle refreshes garments using fabric softener
only; it is advisable not to add any detergent into
the machine. The 30' programme is designed to wash
lightly soiled garments at 30° (excluding wool and silk)
with a 3 kg maximum load in a short time: it only lasts 30
minutes and allows for saving time and energy. The "1h"
cycle is designed to wash moderately soiled resistant
cotton garments at 60° in an hour, with good washing
performance. For synthetic or mixed garments, we
recommend lowering the temperature down to 40°.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations
before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform
manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which
is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If,
after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly,
the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is
excessively unbalanced, the washing machine performs
the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage
improved load distribution and balance, we recommend
small and large garments are mixed in the load.
