Select a programme with a stain type:

Arrange items of washing as usual.
2.
Select a programme.
3.
Load the washing machine
4.
Select a stain type (depending on
the selected programme).
5.
Start the programme.
The washing machine adjusts the
average washing temperature, drum
movement and soaking time to the
specific type of stain. Hot or cold water,
gentle or intensive washing and long or
short soaking ensure that the wash-
programme sequence is specially
adapted to each type of stain. This
makes sure that stains are treated in the
best possible way.
The treatment of two stains explained
in the following example:
Blood
Blood is first “dissolved” in cold water,
then the selected wash programme
starts.
Egg
Egg particles are removed by soaking
in the lukewarm water bath, selecting a
wash cycle with a high water level and
running additional rinse cycles.
Following intensive research, we have
developed comparable solutions for
other stains.
