“Daily wash” mode in the washing machine
If every sane person intuitively understands the purpose of such cycles as, for example, “Cotton”, “Synthetics” or the functions “Rinse”, “Spin”, then some names are puzzling. For example, what is Daily Washing Machine? What parameters does it have, what can be washed on it and what cannot? We'll have to get to know the interesting mode better.
Features of the program
In fact, everything is simple: Daily washing is a complete analogue of the express programs available on virtually every washing machine. There are, of course, ultra-short washes, for example, with Samsung machines, which can be completed in 15 minutes, but generally a quick wash lasts 30-40 minutes. Accordingly, the duration of daily washing is the same. During this time, the cycle goes through all stages from the main wash to spinning and rinsing.
Of course, you can’t expect miracles in half an hour. The program will perfectly refresh things, eliminate slight odors and, at most, remove minor stains. If the stains are serious, you need to choose high-temperature modes (Cotton, Intensive wash or Pre-wash, which is the same as soaking). The standard parameters of the daily washing mode are characterized by the following:
- water temperature 30 or 40 degrees;
- spin at 800 rpm;
- Washing duration is from half an hour to 40 minutes.
If you wish, you can slightly change the settings to suit yourself, but with certain restrictions. For example, it is not possible to increase the temperature; express washing does not imply long-term operation of the heating element. You can set it to 30, 40 degrees or wash in cold water.But the spin cycle can be set to absolutely any value or turned off altogether. The mode will start at 1000 rpm, and even more.
The most outstanding advantage of such a program is the savings, which are double. Firstly, we save time. The drum starts spinning immediately after starting, even when water is still filling. The movements are very sharp and rapid, thanks to which the laundry gets wet better and has time to wash off in a short time. This is also facilitated by the reversible movements of the drum. The second saving is that most of our clothes do not actually need intensive washing, which, thanks to the express program, does not need to be run every time to remove minor stains.
Important! However, serious stains cannot be washed off using the fast mode. Although pre-soaking by hand with some good gel or homemade folk remedies can come to the rescue.
Popular washing machine programs
For better performance of the washing machine, manufacturers never limit themselves to a small set of modes. For each type of fabric and each situation, they try to select the optimal set of parameters. Among other popular SM programs, the following stand out:
- Cotton. The hottest and one of the longest modes. Its duration can reach 2 hours, and the water temperature is 95 degrees, which is actually equivalent to boiling. Natural, hardy fabrics such as cotton, linen and chintz are washed “excellently” in this mode, even if the dirt is very serious.
- Express cotton. A simplified analogue of the previous Cotton. The duration is reduced by heating the water to 60 degrees.
- Everyday wash.Also quite a long program (almost 2 hours), but designed for synthetic fabrics or mixed materials. The water temperature is correspondingly low – 30-40 degrees. Spin at 800 rpm.
- The delicate mode is somewhat similar to the previous program. The same duration and water temperature, but the spin cycle is less aggressive.
- Silent washing function. Due to the reduced vibration level, the machine produces minimal noise, which allows it to be started at night.
- Baby's clothes. A very long feature, lasting almost 2.5 hours. This duration is due to abundant rinsing, designed to completely wash out the powder molecules from children's things. Temperature – 60 degrees.
- Refresh. Things are processed using steam, which makes them smooth out and take on a fresher appearance.
- Duvet blanked. Suitable for washing not only blankets, but also other bulky items filled with down and feathers.
- Biocare. It removes only protein stains, lasts only 15 minutes, but involves maximum heating of the water.
- Hypoallergenic wash. High temperature and generous rinsing will help get rid of irritants and allergens, ranging from pollen to skin mites.
- Intensive 60. Similar to intensive washing, only with reduced energy consumption due to lower water heating (up to 60 degrees).
There is also a mode called “My Program”, which allows the user to independently select the washing parameters he needs and save them in the machine’s memory as an independent function.
