5.15 General Description of Steam Programs

Steam programs

You can use steam programs to reduce the odour of your laundry and to reduce the wrinkling to minimum.

You need to sort your laundry according to the type and thickness.

When steam programs are running, some noise may happen during steam formation.

The result of wrinkle reduction and deodorization may vary depending on the type and amount of your laundry, and the selected program.

After completing the steam programs, you must immediately take out the laundry from the machine and hang them within at least 15 minutes without wrinkling them.
