Help needed for a washing machine

[EHM-1001 Robert]

No no, I am not crazy, but the life brings these crazy situations to me

Again, I need some help for a little Italian translation. We got a used, but not really old washing machine, and the washing programs are written in Italian on the machine. I can translate the most, but it would be much better to hear it from a native speaker


1. Cotone Bianco + Prel.Caldo
2. Cotone Bianco + Prelavaggio
3. Cotone Bianco
4. Cotone Colori Resistenti
5. Tessuti Misti Colorati
6. Risciacqui Centr.Lunga
7. Centrifuga Lunga
8. Sintetici Resistenti + Prel.
9. Sintetici Resistenti
10. Sintetici Colorati
11. Lana Seta
12. Risciacquo E Centr.Corta


Thank you mates, in advance

In order to help both of you;

"The thing that turns fast" could be translated into english like: to CENTRIFUGE or to SPIN.

So number 6 is the spin-dryier programme.
And number 7, longer spin dryer-programme.

Hope this complements Paolo´s explanation.

Robert, please let me know if sometime you decide to stablish a laundry service business.;)
