Anti-arrugas / An-ti-rugas40°C
1.5 kg Steam programme for cotton and synthetic items.This cycle helps to dewrinkle the laundry.
1) To reduce the creases of the laundry, this cycle regulates the water temperature and performs a softwash and spin phase. The appliance adds some rinses.2) During this cycle the drum rotates slowly to ensure a gentle washing. It can seem that the drumdoesn'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 drainphase is available.4) Standard programmes for the Energy Label consumption values. According to regulation1061/2010, these programmes are respectively the «Standard 60°C cotton programme» and the «Stand-ard 40°C cotton programme». They are the most efficient programmes in terms of combined energy andwater consumption for washing normally soiled cotton laundry.
The water temperature of the washing phase may differ from the temperature declaredfor the selected programme.
5) If you set a Steam programme with dried laundry, at the end of the cycle the laundry could be humid.It is better to expose the items to the fresh air for about 10 minutes to let the humidity dry. When theprogramme is completed, quickly remove the laundry from the drum. After a steam cycle, items may tobe ironed anyway, but with less effort!6) Steam does not remove animal odours.

The data of this table are approximate. Different causes can change thedata: the quantity and type of laundry, the water and ambient tempera-ture.
At programme start the display shows the duration programme for themaximum 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 themaximum 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 dotblinks in the display.
