Extra Care

This Anti-Ageing function for Cottons helps to maintain

the brightness of your laundry for a long time, thanks to

the correct drum rotation (reduced in the last part of the

cycle) and the correct temperature.

Note: It cannot be used with the ‘Extra Dry’, ‘Cupboard Dry’

and ‘Light Dry’ dryness levels.

Less Tangled

This option has the drum movement modified to give a

tumbling action that reduces tangling and knotting of

your clothes.

The Less Tangled option gives best results when used

with smaller loads.

turns off and the dryer does a period of Cool Tumble.
