5.2 WASH-AND-DRY PROGRAMME
Automatic washing and drying can be carried out in the tough fabrics (cotton and colours) and synthetic/delicate
fabrics programmes. If the wool wash programmes are selected, automatic drying after the wash cannot be set.
For automatic washing and drying, the load of laundry must not exceed 4 kg of cotton or 2 kg of synthetic fab-
rics.
Therefore, if the load for washing and drying exceeds the quantities stated above, a wash+dry programme is not
recommended; the load will have to be halved after washing and dried in two lots.
To set a wash-and-dry programme proceed as follows:
1. Select the washing programme and make any changes to the default parameters;
2. Press the dry button to set the drying required.
Timed drying
: with this mode, the user selects the drying duration; simply keep pressing to
select the time required. The scale of times, shown on the display, starts from 2:40 hours and
ends with 0:00 hours.
Automatic drying
: with a choice of three residual moisture levels at the end of the drying
cycle
Iron-dry
: garments are slightly damp, ideal for easy ironing
Cupboard-dry
garments are dry and ready for putting away
Extra dry
: garments are super-dry. Suitable for laundry which is particularly hard to
dry.
Whether drying will be at the normal temperature (90°C) or the delicate fabrics temperature (60°C) depends
on the washing programme set previously.
Once a drying has been set, the symbol on the display flashes; it remains constantly on once the cycle enters
the drying stage.
