*The consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in compliance with Standard IEC/EN 60456.

**The programme duration may also vary from the chart values. The washing machine is able to allow for particular household conditions and to adapt the programme run time accordingly.

***To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle, before the pump drains the water out.

POUR IN DETERGENT, CLOSE THE DOOR AND SELECT A PROGRAMME

Add the detergent as described in the chapter “Detergent and Additives” in the instructions for use.

1.Turn the programme selector knob in any direction to the desired programme.

The light above the “Start” button flashes.

2.The programme sequence indicator and the indicator with the maximum possible spin speed light up.

SELECT SPECIAL OPTIONS - The corresponding lights go on (if not selectable: rapid flashing for 3 seconds)

“Prewash” button

•Only for heavily soiled laundry (e.g. sand or granular dirt). Programme duration is increased by some 15 min.

“Intensive Rinse” button

•An additional rinse cycle is carried out.

•This option is particularly suitable for areas with very soft water, washing baby linen and helps people with detergent allergies.

“Rinse Hold” button

•The laundry remains in the last rinse water without being spun: discoloration of the laundry and additional creasing are prevented.

•This option is particularly recommended for the programme “Synthetic” or “Delicate”.

•This function is particularly useful if you want to postpone spinning to a later time.

Note: The programme has reached the “Rinse Hold” when the corresponding light flashes.

Terminate the “Rinse Hold” option:

•Press the “Rinse Hold” button again; the programme will terminate automatically with the appropriate spin cycle for the current programme.

•If you do not wish to spin the clothes, turn the programme selector knob to “Drain” and press the “Start” button again.

“Speed Reduction” button

•A maximum spin speed is assigned to each programme.

•Press the button to set another speed for the spin cycle.

•If no light goes on, the final spin is cancelled. The water is only drained out.

PROGRAMME START

After you have selected the programme and the additional option, the indicator light over the “Start” button flashes. Turn on the tap and start the programme by pressing the “Start” button. Now the indicator light above the button goes on.

In addition, all programme phases are indicated by the associated lights. After the end of a programme phase, the associated indicator light goes out. Thus the programme sequence indicator moves from left to right across the wash, rinse and spin phases. At the end of the programme, only the “End” indicator is still on.

“DOOR LOCKED” INDICATOR

As long as a washing programme is running, the lamp lights up to show that the door cannot be opened. When the lamp goes off, the door can be opened again.

If “Start” has been pressed, but the door is not latched, the “Door Locked” indicator flashes for 10 seconds. The door must be pushed shut within this time. After the 10 seconds, the “Door Locked” indicator goes out and the “Start” button flashes. The door must then be opened and closed again and the “Start” button must be pressed.

“TROUBLE” INDICATORS

“Pump”

Waste water is not pumped out. Check wether the drain hose is kinked or the filter must be cleaned; in the latter case refer to the Instructions for Use (“Removing the Filter”).

“Water Tap”

The appliance has no or insufficient water supply. Open the water tap; if the indication still lights up, refer to the “Troubleshooting Guide” in the Instructions for Use.

PROGRAMME END

• The “End” indicator goes on.

1.Set the programme selector knob to the “Off” position.

2.Turn off the tap.

3.Open the door and unload the machine.

RESELECT AFTER PROGRAMME START

A newly-selected programme will continue in the same programme section during which the current programme was interrupted. Therefore do not add any more detergent.

1.Press the “Start” button to interrupt the programme. The light flashes.

2.Select the new programme (with temperature), any additional options and - if you wish - another spin speed.

3.Press the “Start” button again to restart the programme.

•If you are in the “Prewash” programme step, this additional option cannot be deselected as described (to do this see “Cancel (Reset) a running programme before the end”).

CANCEL (RESET) A RUNNING

PROGRAMME BEFORE THE END

Press the “Reset” button for at least 2 seconds. Any existing water is drained out before the door can be opened.
