Choosing the wash programme
The wash programme is chosen with the programme selector, the temperature adjustment knob and the buttons. For normally soiled articles, choose a programme without pre-wash. For dirty articles choose a programme with prewash or use the "intensive" button (refer to the button description). For protein based stains (blood, cocoa), we recommend a programme with pre-wash. For heavily stained articles (fruit, vegetables, tea) press the INTENSIVE button. 40
