Daily use
Loading washing
• Open the lid of the appliance.
• Open the drum by depressing the loc-
king button A : The two shutters
unlock automatically.
• Load the washing, close the drum
and the lid of your washing machine.
Proportioning of detergents
Your washing machine has been designed to reduce your water and detergent consumption. You can therefore
reduce the amounts recommended by
detergent manufacturers.
Pour the amount of washing powder into
the washing and prewash compartments if you have selected the
“prewash” option. Pour fabric softener
into the compartment if necessary .
If you use another detergent type, refer
to the section “detergents and
additives” in the washing guide.
Selection of desired programme
You can find the right programme for
different types of washing in the
programme table (see “Programme
table”).
A
Before closing the lid of your appliance,
ensure that the drum is properly closed :
• When the two shutters are closed,
• locking button A released.
Turn the programme selector to the
required programme. The “Start/Pause”
pushbutton flashes green.
If you turn the programme selector to
another programme while a cycle is in
progress, the appliance will ignore the
new selected programme. The “Start/
Pause” pushbutton flashes red for a few
seconds.
How to run a wash cycle 9
Selecting the temperature
Press the “Temperature”
pushbutton repeatedly to
increase or decrease the
temperature if you want
your washing to be washed
at a different temperature to
the one selected by the appliance. The symbol
means a cold wash.
Selecting the spin speed
Turn the spin
speed selector
on the desired
speed. You can
also select “No
spin”*, “Rinse
hold”
*
or
“Night silence
plus” *.
The maximum speeds are :
for Cottons, Synthetics, Easy iron, Wool,
Handwash : 800 rpm,
for Delicates, Silk, Mini programme : 700
rpm.
At the end of the programme, if you have
selected “Rinse hold” or “Night
silence plus” , you then need to select
a “Spin”, “Delicate Spin” or “Drain”
programme to finish the cycle.
“Night silence plus”
The washing machine does not empty
the water after the final rinse which prevents the washing from creasing. Because there are no spin cycles, the
washing programme is very quiet and
can be selected at night. In Cotton and
Synthetics programmes, the rinsing cycle uses more water.
“Rinse hold”
The washing machine will not drain the
water from the last rinse, so will not
crease the laundry.
Selecting options
You must select the
different options after selecting the
programme and
before pressing the
“Start/Pause” pushbutton (see “Pro-
gramme table”).
Press the desired button(s) ; the corresponding lights come on. If pressed
again, the lights go out. If one of the options is not compatible with the selected
programme, the “Start/Pause” pushbutton flashes red.
“Super Quick” option
The washing time will be reduced
depending on the programme selected.
“Eco” option
This option allows you to choose a lower
temperature programme which is as effective as a higher temperature wash
programme.
“Prewash” option
The appliance runs a prewash at 30°C
max. The prewash finishes with a short
spin cycle for cotton or synthetic
programmes, and with an empty cycle
for delicates programmes.

12 washing guide
Washing guide
Sorting and preparing the washing
• Sort washing by type and care label
(refer to International symbols section
below) : normal wash for tough
fabrics which can withstand intense
washing and spinning cycles ; delicate wash for delicate fabrics which
need to be treated with care. For
mixed loads, loads with items of different types of material, choose a
programme and a temperature suitable for the most fragile material.
• Wash whites and colours separately :
Otherwise, whites will be coloured or
will turn grey.
• New coloured clothes often contain
excess dye. It is recommended to
wash such items separately the first
time. Follow care instructions “wash
separately” and “wash separately
several times”.
• Empty pockets and unfold items.
• Remove loose buttons, pins and fasteners. Close zip fasteners, tie ups
laces and straps.
• Turn multilayered fabrics (sleeping
bags, anoraks, etc.), coloured headwear, wool and material with printed
designs inside out.
• Wash small fragile items (socks,
tights, bras, etc) in a net bag.
• Take special care with curtains.
Remove hooks and place net curtains in a net or bag.
Wash loads depending on type of
materials
The amount of washing placed in the
drum must not exceed the maximum
capacity of the washing machine. This
capacity can vary depending on the type
of materials. Reduce the quantity if
washing is heavily soiled or made of absorbant material.
Not all textiles have the same volume in
the drum or the same water absorption
levels. In general, the drum must therefore be filled :
• to full capacity but avoiding excessive pressure on cotton, linen and
cotton/linen mixtures,
• to half capacity for processed cottons and synthetic fibres,
• to a third of its capacity for very fragile items such as net curtains and
woollens.
For mixed loads, fill drum depending on
most fragile materials.
Detergents and additives
Only use detergents and additives designed for use in a washing machine. Refer to manufacturer’s recommendations
and also Dispenser box and Using the right amount of detergent sections.
We do not recommend mixing different
types of detergents. This may spoil the
washing.
The amount of detergent to be used depends on the size of the load, the hardness of the water and how heavily soiled
the washing is.
If the water is soft, reduce the amount
slightly. If the water contains lime scale
(a descaler is recommended) or if the
washing is heavily soiled or stained, increase the amount slightly.
washing guide 13
You can obtain information on the hardness level of water in your area by contacting your water company or other
competent source.
There are no restrictions on the use of
powder detergents.
Liquid detergents must not be used
when a prewash has been selected. For
cycles without prewash, they can be added either via means of a dosing ball, or
in the detergent compartment. In either
