Door open button
A safety device prevents the door from being
opened immediately after the end of the cycle. You
should wait for 2 minutes after the program has
finished and ensure the door security light on the
cycle progress indicator has gone out before
opening the door. If the door is not closed, the indicator
will continue to flash.
Program selection knob
This control knob allows you to select the washing or drying program
of your choice. You can rotate the knob in both directions.
Delay start button
This button can be used to program a delay start of 3, 6 or 9
hours. The relevant indicator will light to show your selection.
See the section “Delay start feature” on pages 21-22 for
instructions.
Spin speed selection button
The spin cycle is important to remove as much water as
possible from the laundry without damaging the fabrics. You
can adjust the spin speed of the machine to reduce the
maximum speed. The relevant indicator will light to show your
selection.
You can use the button to light this symbol to select “No Spin”.
11
Stain remover button
This option is recommended for heavily soiled loads. The
machine rotates in such a way as to distribute the detergent
evenly during the wash and rinse procedures. The spin
speed increases to maximise the cleaning action. This option
ensures a more intensive washing cycle to remove stains without
lengthening the program time.
Extra rinse button
This button will program the machine to add an additional
rinse to the cycle. This function is ideal for people with
sensitive skin as it removes more of the detergent from
washing. It is advisable to use this function for very dirty loads
where extra detergent has been used. This option can be used only
on some programs.
Drying program selection button
Press this button to select the required drying program. The
relevant indicator will light to show your selection. See the
“Selecting a drying program” section of this manual on pages
22-25 for instructions for setting a drying cycle.
Cold wash button
By pressing this button it is possible to change every program
into a cold wash one without altering the water level, time or
spin speed. Curtains, small carpets, delicate fabrics and non
colour fast garments can be safely washed with this feature.
Anti-crease button
Use this button to select the anti-crease function. This will
minimise creases in mixed fabrics, delicate fabrics and woollens
and silk. It works in the following ways:
Fabric
(according to
program
selected)
Process
Mixed fabrics
The water is gradually cooled throughout the final
2 rinses with no spinning and then a delicate spin
assures the maximum relaxation of the fabrics.
Delicate fabrics
The final 2 rinses are carried out with no spinning
and then the fabrics are left in water until it is
time to unload. When you are ready to unload,
press the anti-crease button (M) to drain.
12
Woollens / silk
After the final rinse the fabrics are left in water
until it is time to unload. When you are ready to
unload, press the anti-crease button (M) to drain
and spin.
Start / pause button
This button should be used to start the chosen wash program.
When the button is pressed, the appliance will begin the cycle
within a few seconds. You can also press this button to pause a
wash cycle in progress and continue after. When a program is
selected, wait for the STOP light to flash before pressing the
Start / Pause button.
Detergent drawer
Pre wash section
This compartment should have detergent placed in it, if you are going
to select a wash program that has a pre wash as part of it.
Main wash section
This compartment should have detergent placed in it (you should also
put a water softening agent in this section, if you use one). The
detergent will be added to the drum at the start of the main wash
program.
Conditioner section
This compartment should be used for liquid conditioners (fabric
softener, starch). They will be added to the wash load during the final
rinse.
13
o If liquid detergents are used,
insert the special container
supplied into the compartment
labelled “II”.
o This ensures that the liquid
detergent enters the drum at
the right stage of the wash
cycle.
o Some detergents are difficult to
utilise. You can use them in a
drum dispenser if
recommended by the detergent
manufacturer.
IMPORTANT: Only put liquid products in the conditioner
compartment.
Preparing the wash cycle
Preparing your garments for washing
o Your washing should be sorted out, according to
the fabric type and the wash care symbol that is
printed on the garment’s wash care label. (See the
“A selection of wash care symbols” section on
pages 14-15).
o Your washing should also be sorted out
according to the degree of soiling.
o Check all pockets on a garment to make sure
that they are empty.
o Remove any detachable metal items (badges,
paperclips, safety pins etc).
o Zips should be closed, duvet covers and pillow cases should be
buttoned up and any loose straps should be tied up. This will
14
help to prevent other garments from getting damaged during the
wash.
o Woollens and knitted coloured fabrics should be turned inside out
before being washed in the appliance.
o Small delicate items (tights, baby socks) should be placed in
either a washing net or a zipped pillow case.
o Curtains should be handled with particular care. All plastic hooks
or metal strips must be removed before being washed in the
appliance.
o Coloured items and whites should be washed
in separate wash cycles.
o New garments often contain an excess of
dye, therefore it is advisable to wash them separately for their
first wash.
o Garments should be unfolded and shook out before being placed
inside the machine.
