Cycle progress indicator

This display shows the time remaining for a set wash program. The icons indicate the following remaining times:

Start light: Remaining time above 60 minutes 60 light: Remaining time less than 60 minutes 30 light: Remaining time less than 30 minutes 15 light: Remaining time less than 15 minutes Stop light: End of the program.

The display also shows the set delayed start time of 3, 6 or 9 hours. The stop light will flash while a program is being set until the program has started or the program selection knob is returned to the “OFF” position.

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.

Delay start button

This button can be used to program a delay start of 3, 6 or 9

hours. See the section “Delay start feature” for instructions.

Stain remover button

This option is useful for heavily soiled loads and can be

used only on some programs.

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.

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)

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 (G) to drain.

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 (G) to drain and spin.

Process

Spin speed control knob

BWMI1206 BWMI1407

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 machine is fitted with an imbalance control system to cancel the spin cycle if the load is unbalanced. This reduces the noise and

vibration in the machine. You can rotate the dial to this symbol to select “No Spin”.

Wash temperature control knob

This control knob enables you to reduce, but not increase, the washing cycle temperature. Please

refer to the program table for information on the maximum temperature advised for each wash cycle.

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.

Wash program selection knob

This control knob allows you to select the wash program of your choice. You can rotate the knob in both directions.

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.
