The machine makes an
unusual noise

The machine is fitted
with a type of motor
which makes an unusual
noise compared with
other traditional motors.
This new motor ensures
a softer start and more
even distribution of the
laundry in the drum
when spinning, as well
as increased stability of
the machine.

No water is visible in
the drum

Machines based on
modern technology
operate very
economically using very
little water  without
affecting performance.
