Additional Details and Usage

Wash programmes and fabric care

This washer provides 14 fabric care cycles: 20°C, Cottons, Delicate, Drum Clean, Eco 40–60, Extra Care, Mixed, Quick 15, Quick 30, Rinse, Sanitise, Spin, Steam Refresh and Wool. The cushioned drum is designed to protect clothes while delivering optimal wash performance, with specific cycles tailored for different fabric types and soil levels.

Optimise Wash options

You can customise each wash using Speed, Eco and Quiet modes. Speed shortens total wash time, Eco is designed to wash more sustainably, and Quiet mode reduces cycle noise, making it suitable for late night washing without waking the house.

Auto Dose and detergent management

Auto Dose mode dispenses the exact amount of liquid detergent required based on load size, helping prolong the life of garments by reducing over–dosing. This results in less waste, less detergent residue and the convenience of not needing to fill the dispenser for every wash. A timed liquid detergent dispenser and a fabric softener dispenser are also included.
