The energy consumption decreases and the time of
the washing programme is extended.
1) To reduce the creases of the laundry, this cycle regulates the water temperature and performs a soft
wash and spin phase. The appliance adds some rinses. This programme is not compatible with drying.
2) During this cycle the drum rotates slowly to ensure a gentle washing. It can seem that the drum
doesn't rotate or doesn't rotate properly. Consider this as a normal functioning of the appliance.
3) Set the spin speed. Make sure it agrees with the laundry. If you set No Spin option the only drain
phase is available.
4) This programme is for daily use and has lowest energy and water consumption maintaining a good
washing performance.
5) The washing programme Katoen Eco - Coton Eco at 60ºC with a load of 8 kg and the drying pro-
gramme Katoen - Coton are the reference programmes for the data entered in the energy label, in com-
pliance with EEC 92/75 standards.
The water temperature of the washing phase may differ from the temperature declared
for the selected programme.

6. CONSUMPTION VALUES
The data of this table are approximate. Different causes can change the
data: the quantity and type of laundry, the water and ambient tempera-
ture.
At programme start the display shows the duration programme for the
maximum load capacity.
During the washing phase the programme duration is automatically cal-
culated and can be greatly reduced if the laundry load is lower than the
maximum load capacity (e.g. Cotton 60°C, maximum load capacity 8 kg,
the programme duration exceeds 2 hours; real load 1 kg, the pro-
gramme duration don’t reach 1 hour).
When the appliance is calculating the real programme duration a dot
blinks in the display.
