Turn the program selector dial to choose your desired wash or wash&dry cycle. The appliance offers 9 rapid programs designed for various fabric types and soil levels, improving cleaning action by 50% compared to traditional motors.

- Funzione vapore: Select the steam option to relax fabric fibers, reduce wrinkles, and facilitate ironing. This is particularly useful for delicate items or garments prone to creasing.
