Programmes,
Modes & Options,
Made Simple

Choose a programme for what you are washing. Add a mode to prioritise how the wash should perform. Then use options to fine-tune the details.


Programmes are the main wash cycles. They help match the wash to the garment, fabric type, colour, soil level or care requirement.


Modes adjust the selected programme. They help you prioritise what matters most, such as a faster wash, quieter operation, stronger cleaning, added rinse care or a lighter environmental impact.


Options give you more control over each wash, from temperature and spin speed to extra rinsing, prewash, anti-crease care and delayed start.

Modes

Adjust the Wash to What Matters Most

ASKO washing machine modes let you adapt selected programmes for faster washing, quieter operation, stronger cleaning, added rinse care or lighter environmental impact.

Balanced washing

  • Normal Mode makes no changes to the selected programme, using the water, energy and time needed for a balanced washing result.

Lighter environmental impact

  • Green Mode reduces water and energy use by extending each stage of the wash, helping support a more responsible way to care for laundry.

Added rinse care

  • Allergy Mode adds water, energy and time to rinse away more detergent residue from the load and detergent compartment, making it useful for garments worn close to sensitive skin.

Faster washing

Stronger cleaning
