•DETAILS OF THE PROGRAMMES
•Flash 30min
This programme enables you to refresh a small load of 2.5 kg of
lightly soiled washing composed of WHITES, COTTONS,
COLOUREDS or HARD-WEARING SYNTHETICS.
The cycle time is restricted to around 30 minutes
In this programme, the washing temperature is automatically programmed
at 40°C.
Important :
For this programme, the doses of detergent should be
reduced by half
• Empty tank
Allows you to drain the "Water saver technology" tank.
N.B.: When you next run a cycle, the tank will again fill automatically
at the end of the programme.
•FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
•How much water is saved by using the "Water saver
technology"?
You save 8.5 litres of water with each cycle, i.e. 25% or approximately
2 cubic metres per year.
•What happens if I wash clothes that are not colour-fast?
It is recommended to run the "Empty Tank" programme after the wash
cycle.
•Do I need to empty the tank when I go away on holiday?
It is not strictly necessary, however the tank can be drained using the
"Empty Tank" programme if you prefer.
•Is it still possible to clean the tank if I want to?
You can run a 90°C cotton programme with an empty machine but
with washing powder or liquid in the fabric softener compartment up
to the first indicator line.
The 90°C wash cycle will clean the drum, removing all traces of
colorants.
During the final rinse, the washing powder or liquid will be taken from
the fabric softener compartment.
At the end of this final rinse cycle, the water containing the product
will then be stored in the Water Saver tank.
Wait for at least 1 hour after the end of the cycle before emptying the
tank, to give the product time to act.
Then run an "Empty Tank" programme.
•Can commercial dyes be used to dye my clothes?
No, we strongly advise against the use of dyes in the washing machine.
•Can the water stay in the tank for several days?
Yes; the "Water saver technology" tank is protected by an anti-bacterial
treatment.
We have therefore been awarded the "Sanitized" label.
