Understanding the Key Features of Green Washing Machines – Part 1
In this article, we review the most important features of Green washing machines. If you encounter symbols or icons on your washing machine panel whose meanings are unclear, this visual and textual guide is designed especially for you!

The features displayed on a washing machine serve as its unique language. Each icon conveys a specific function or operation from quick wash and steam cleaning to child lock and anti-foam systems. Green has integrated numerous features into its popular series such as Galant, BMW, and Compact, which not only enhance the panel’s aesthetics but also simplify device operation. Here, we explore the 14 priority and commonly used features in the Iranian market.

Technical Review of Green Washing Machines' Features

Child Lock

Activating this feature disables all buttons to prevent children from tampering with the machine. When this icon is lit, you can be confident that controls are locked. To deactivate, typically you must press and hold two specific buttons simultaneously for a few seconds.

Quick Wash (15-minute cycle)

Designed for lightly soiled or small loads, this cycle completes washing in just 15 minutes. It is highly efficient for emergencies or everyday clothing, saving both water and time.

Steam Wash

This function disinfects clothes, reduces wrinkles, and increases softness. It is especially suitable for baby clothes or people with allergies, as steam penetrates deeply into fabric fibers.

BLDC Motor (Brushless DC Motor)

This motor operates without belts. Key advantages include lower noise, longer lifespan, reduced energy consumption, and minimized vibration. Green washing machines equipped with BLDC motors deliver powerful yet quiet performance.

Load Detection Technology

An intelligent sensor measures the laundry load weight and automatically adjusts wash time and water consumption accordingly. This feature improves efficiency and lowers energy use.

Error Display

If a malfunction occurs (such as an open door or drainage failure), this feature activates. Displaying an error code helps users quickly identify and troubleshoot the issue.

Cotton & Wool Wash

Selecting this program washes cotton and wool garments at optimal temperatures and spin speeds, protecting fibers from damage and extending garment life.

Drum Cleaning

Designed to clean the internal drum, this program uses hot water and specific rotations to eliminate bacteria and residues. It is recommended to run this cycle every few weeks.

Extra Rinse

This cycle provides additional rinsing to remove detergent residues more thoroughly. It is ideal for individuals with sensitive skin or washing baby clothes. It also prevents chemical odors on garments.

Favorite Program

Allows users to save a customized combination of temperature, spin speed, and wash type for future use. This feature suits those who regularly wash laundry with a specific routine.

Smart Program

Automatically adjusts time, temperature, and water usage based on the laundry load. This mode is perfect when you are in a hurry or unsure which program is most appropriate.

Start Delay Timer

Enables scheduling the wash cycle to start at a desired time for example, to begin operation late at night or when no one is at home.

Large 300 mm Door Opening

This design facilitates easy loading and unloading of bulky items like blankets, towels, or large garments.

Large LED Display

A bright, clear, and visually appealing screen that shows all operational information. It is especially useful for elderly users or in low-light conditions, providing a modern and professional appearance.
