Door open button
Press this button to open the porthole door. A
safety device prevents the door from being
opened immediately after the end of the cycle.
You should wait for 2 minutes after the wash
cycle has finished and the door lock indicator
light has gone out before opening the door.
Door lock indicator light
The door lock indicator will light when the door is fully
closed and the machine is switched on. When the
Start/Pause button is pressed to start a wash cycle,
the indicator will flash for a few seconds and then light. If the door
is not closed the indicator will continue to flash. The door
cannot be opened until the door lock indicator has gone out.

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

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” on page
22 for instructions.
Easy iron button
Use this button to select the easy iron 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 easy iron button 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 easy iron button to drain and
spin.
Process

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.
Cold wash button
This button allows you to change every program into a
cold washing cycle without altering other characteristics
of the cycle such as water level, time and features.
Spin speed 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, by pressing the spin speed button.
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 and so
prolongs the life of your appliance.
You can select this symbol to choose “No Spin”.
Spin speed indicator
When you choose a wash program, the maximum
possible spin speed will be automatically selected and
shown by the relevant indicator light turning on. By
pressing the spin speed button you can choose a lower
spin speed.
11
Remaining time indicator
This display shows the time remaining for a set
wash program. The icons indicate the following
remaining times:
90 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.
Program selection dial
This control knob allows
you to select the wash
program of your choice.
You can rotate the knob in
both directions.
Cycle option indicators
The relevant indicator light will turn on to
show which option has been selected for the
program. If you select an option that is not
compatible with the chosen program, the indicator light will not turn
on.

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.
IMPORTANT: Only liquid products should be used in the
conditioner compartment. The machine is programmed to
automatically take up additives during the final rinse stage for
all wash cycles.
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
13
the right stage of the wash cycle.
o Some detergents are difficult to utilise so
an in drum dispenser should be used if
recommended by the detergent
manufacturer.
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
separate section on wash care symbols).
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
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.
