Italian dishwasher

JuliusCaesar · 2014-05-24 08:57:57

My dishwasher has the programmes named in Italian and the manual doesn't say what they mean. Normale con/senza prelavaggio and breve I can understand, but what is "Ammollo"? Google translate tells me it is soak, but would it be more like Rinse?

Well I'd say "soak" is the correct one. to put something "a mollo" literally means to soak/submerge(and keep submerged)/dip/dive... is putting stuff underwater (or another liquid) and keep it down inside there.

Corkleo is right. When your stuff is particularly dirty, with stains hard to remove, you leave it in "ammollo", which is a program coming before the actual washing, just to make it easy for the cleaning powder to act better.
