Synthetic mode in the washing machine

Synthetic mode in the washing machineAs the name suggests, this special mode is suitable for cleaning any synthetic and semi-synthetic fabrics. However, this statement is not entirely correct. Today, almost every item contains an admixture of synthetics, but this does not mean that such clothes should be cleaned exclusively when running the program of the same name. To ensure high-quality cleaning of laundry, you need to understand how the washing machine functions when choosing the Synthetic mode, what washing parameters are included in this concept by various brands - manufacturers of washing machines.

Bosch appliances

Not all automatic Bosch washing machines are equipped with a Synthetic mode. A whole series of equipment manufactured before 2007 has a program in memory for washing mixed fabrics, which is recommended to run when cleaning synthetic items. Modern brand SMAs are equipped with this mode, the main parameters of which are as follows:

  • water is heated to a temperature of 30-40°C;
  • The spin speed is not regulated, the user can easily set the number of revolutions he needs;
  • The washing duration is also subject to change. You can set the time from 70 to 140 minutes;
  • to ensure maximum cleaning quality, it is recommended to load no more than half of the permissible weight into the drum;
  • The rinse option is set by default. If desired, you can run an additional rinse cycle, if such a function is provided by the intelligence.

Thus, this program in Bosch washing machines is quite flexible and can be adapted by the housewife to specific washing parameters. When choosing a mode, pay attention to the quality and degree of contamination of the items loaded into the drum. The Synthetics icon on almost all Bosch washing machines is presented in the form of a hanging shirt and is additionally signed. Therefore, there will be no difficulties with choosing a program.

Samsung washing machines

The Synthetic mode is found on the control panel of almost every automatic machine of the brand. In the instruction manual you can find a detailed description of the program, as well as a list of products allowed for cleaning under these parameters. For what things will the mode be ideal? The manufacturer allows washing blouses, shirts, shirts and other items made from synthetic fibers. Basic washing parameters within the program:

  • the water temperature in the tank reaches 60°C, however, at the user’s discretion, the heating can be reduced to 40 degrees;
  • pre-washing is not provided by the intellect;
  • the default spin speed is 800 rpm, but the value can be increased up to 1200 rpm, if such a possibility is provided for by the characteristics of the equipment;
  • average water consumption varies from 50 to 62 liters.

Samsung Synthetic

To increase cleaning efficiency, the manufacturer recommends putting no more than half of the drum into the machine at a time. This way the quality of washing will be perfect.

In most cases, there is no original designation on the control panel; the name of the program is simply written near the programmer knob - Synthetics.

Washing machines Siemens

This brand, on the contrary, does not seek to program in the intellect a mode for washing synthetic fabrics. Only a few models have this badge.For washing machines equipped with the Synthetic program, the washing parameters when selecting it will be as follows:

  • unfixed temperature of water heating in the system. The user can set the preferred value: 30, 40 and 60°C;
  • rinsing starts automatically, it is impossible to remove the specified option;
  • so that the quality of washing does not suffer, it is better not to load more than 2.5 kg (with an allowable five kg) of synthetic or semi-synthetic items into the drum;
  • The rotation speed during spinning is adjustable; if necessary, the function can be disabled;
  • there is an additional rinse option that can be set along with the Synthetic mode;
  • The average cycle time is 105 minutes, depending on user settings, the time may vary.

Siemens Synthetics

If you use a washer-dryer, be prepared for the fact that you cannot run intensive drying within the regime. If this program is not available in your Siemens brand washing machine, you can clean synthetic clothes by selecting the Mixed laundry cycle.

Indesit technique

This manufacturer, on the contrary, has almost every washing machine with a designation for the mode being discussed. Modern machines have two program variations - Synthetic 1 and Synthetic 2. There is no significant difference between them, but small differences can be found.

  1. Synthetics 1. The water warms up to a temperature of 60°C, it is impossible to start a pre-wash, but it is possible to turn on the additional “Bleaching” option. Loading, like all manufacturers, is done on half a drum. The cycle duration is 75 minutes. Spinning is carried out at a drum rotation speed of 800 rpm.
  2. Synthetics 2.A significant difference is that by default the water is heated only to 40 degrees, as a result of which the program time is slightly reduced - 71 minutes. The remaining settings are similar to the first mode.

Indesit Synthetics

So, we have described in detail the parameters of the Synthetic mode, which vary depending on the manufacturer brand. Before starting the washing process, carefully study the description of the program, load suitable items into the drum and begin the procedure.
