The present invention relates to a method for performing a washing cycle of sensitive laundry (20) in a washing machine (10) or in a washer-dryer, which washing machine (10) or washer-dryer, respectively, comprises a washing tub (16), a rotatable laundry drum (18) within the washing tub (16), a recirculation circuit for circulating a washing liquid from a bottom region of the washing tub (16) to a higher region of the latter, and a heating device (38). The method comprises the following steps: one or more filling steps in which a washing liquid is filled into the washing tub (16); a main heating step in which the washing liquid contained in the washing tub (16) is heated from an inlet-temperature to an operating-temperature adapted for washing the laundry (20); a washing step in which the laundry (20) loaded in the washing tub (16) is washed with said washing liquid; a rinsing step in which said loaded laundry (20) is rinsed. During the main heating step the rotation of the laundry drum (18) is not activated, and the recirculation of the washing liquid from the bottom region of the washing tub (16) to a higher region of the latter is activated. Further, the present invention relates to a corresponding washing machine (10) or a corresponding washer-dryer.
