Pulse Technology
Thanks to the new generation of 3 phase motors controlled by a
sophisticated electronic system, we have developed a new washing
mode which simulates hand washing action during wash cycle.
The new motor allows the drum to move with a pulse action. This action
of partial rotation with pauses in between creates a delicate wash only
equalled to that of hand washing.
This delicate wash system applies to all programmes identified with this
symbol
WOOL & SILK
This programme allows a complete washing cycle for garments specified
as “Machine-Washable” Wool fabrics and laundry items made from silk
or specified “Wash as Silk” on the fabric label.
The programme has a maximum temperature of 30°C and concludes
with 3 rinses, one for fabric conditioner, and a slow spin.
DUVET
This is a programme dedicated to washing a single duvet or big size
laundry.
This programme washes at a cool 30°C, carries out 3 rinses (one is for
fabric conditioner) and concludes with a slow spin.
We suggested to follow the instruction on the cloths label.
REFRESH AND FAST IRONING PROGRAM BY STEAM
To be load 1/5 of the maximum capacity. This innovative program offers,
thanks to the special steam action and without detergent and water, the
possibility to refresh our garments and to remove the unpleasant smells
such as last night's mixture of perfume, food and cigarettes. It also has
another special program inside, in fact thanks to the delicate action of the
steam it is able to relax all cloth fibers, taking all wrinkles out. This permits
an easy ironing, suggested for shirts and skirt. Suitable for laundry with
this label .
RAPID PROGRAMME
The Rapid programme allows a washing cycle to be completed in just 14
minutes! This programme is particularly suited to slightly dirty cottons and
mixed fabrics.
Using the Stain Level button on the Rapid cycle will enable you to select
either a 14, 30 or 44 minute wash cycle.
When selecting the rapid programme, please note that we recommend you
use only 20% of the recommended quantities shown on the detergent pack.
For information about these programmes please refer to the programmes table.

Programme Buttons
For the various types of fabrics and various degrees of dirt the washing machine has
different programme bands according to: wash cycle, temperature and lenght of cycle (see
table of washing cycle programmes).
Cottons
The Cottons programme is also designed for maximum washing and
rinsing efficiency. With spin cycles in between, the programme guarantees
the laundry is rinsed perfectly. The final spin cycle ensures laundry is spun
dry as much as possible up to the maximum speed. This cycle is set to
40°C, but the temperature may be altered using the Temperature option
button.
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.
Agentle spin will mean that the fabrics become less creased.
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.
SPECIAL “RINSE” PROGRAMME
This programme carries out three rinses with a intermediate spin (which
can be reduced or excluded by using the correct button). It can be used
for rinsing any type of fabric, eg. use after hand-washing.
This program can be also used as cycle of Bleaching (see table of
washing cycle programmes).
SPECIAL “SPIN” PROGRAMME
Programme “SPIN” carries out a maximum spin (which can be reduced by
using the correct button).
DRAIN ONLY
This programme drains out the water.
