PROGRAMMES

Follow the instructions on the symbols of the garment’s wash care label. The value indicated in the symbol is the maximum recommended temperature for washing the garment.

Anti Stain 40

This cycle is suitable to heavily-soiled garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing class that is higher than the standard class (A class). When running the programme, do not mix garments of different colours. We recommend the use of powder detergent. Pre-treatment

with special additives is recommended if there are obstinate stains

Anti Stain Quick

This cycle is ideal for washing daily stains in 45’. It is ideal for mixed

fabrics and coloured garments.

White

For washing normally to heavily soiled towels, underwear, table and bed linen, etc in resilient cotton and linen. Only when the temperature is selected at 90°C the cycle is provided with a prewash phase before main washing phase. In this case it is recommended to add detergent

both, in the prewash and main wash section.

Bed Bath

For washing home linen in a single cycle. It optimises the use of fabric softener and allows for saving time and electricity. We recommend the

use of powder detergent.

Eco 40-60

For washing normally soiled cotton garments declared to be washable at 40 °C or 60 °C, together in the same cycle. This is the standard cotton programme and the most efficient in terms of water and energy

consumption.

Mixed

To wash mixed and coloured items together.

Cotton

Suitable for washing towels, underwear, table cloths, etc. made of

resistant linen and cotton that are moderately to heavily soiled.

Synthetics

Suitable for washing moderately soiled garments made of synthetic fibres (e.g. polyester, polyacrylic, viscose, etc.) or mixed synthetic-

cotton fibres.

Colours

For washing coloured cotton garments. This programme is optimised

to keep colours bright even after repeated washing.

Rapid 30‘

For washing lightly soiled garments in a short time. Not suitable for

wool, silk and garments to be washed by hand.

Wool - Woolmark Apparel Care - Green:

The Wool wash cycle of this machine has been

approved by The Woolmark Company for the washing of wool garments labelled as “hand wash” provided

that the products are washed according to the instructions on the garment label and those issued by the manufacturer of this washing machine (M1318). The Woolmark logo is a Certification mark in many countries.

20 °C

For washing lightly soiled cotton garments, at a temperature of 20 °C.

Ultradelicates

For washing very delicate garments. It is advisable to turn the garments inside out before washing them. For best results, use liquid detergent

on delicate garments.

Duvet

Suitable for washing clothing padded with goose down, such as single duvets (weighing under 3,5 kg), cushions or down jackets. Duvets should be loaded into the drum with their edges folded inwards and no more than ¾ of the total drum volume should be used up. For best results, it is advisable to use liquid detergent to be poured into the

detergent drawer.

Rinse + Spin

Designed for rinsing and spinning.

Spin + Drain

Designed for spinning and draining the water.

Eco Cotton

For washing normally soiled cotton garments. At 40°C and 60°C.

FIRST TIME USE

To remove any manufacturing debris select the 3 programme at a temperature of 90°C. Pour a small quantity of detergent powder into the main wash 2 compartment of the detergent dispenser (maximum 1/3 of

the quantity the detergent manufacturer recommends for lightly soiled laundry). Start the programme without adding any laundry.

DAILY USE

Prepare your laundry according to the recommendations in the “HINTS AND TIPS”section. Load the laundry, close the door, open the water tap and press the “ON/OFF” button to switch the washing machine

on, the “Start/Pause”	button flashes. Turn the programme selector
to the desired programme and select any option if needed. The

temperature and spin speed can be changed by pressing the “Temp.” button or the “Spin Speed”button. Pull out the detergent dispenser and add the detergent (and additives/softener) now. Observe the dosing recommendations on the detergent pack. Then close the detergent dispenser and press the “Start/Pause” button. The “Start/Pause” button will lights up and the door will be locked.

PAUSE A RUNNING PROGRAMME

To pause the wash cycle, press the “Start/Pause” ; the indicator light will go off and the remaining time on display flash. To start the wash cycle from the point at which it was interrupted press the button again.

OPEN THE DOOR, IF REQUIRED

After starting a programme, the “Door locked” indicator lights up to show that the door can not be opened. As long as a wash programme is running, the door remains locked. To open the door while a programme is in progress, press the “Start/Pause” to pause the programme.

Provided the water level and/or temperature is/are not too high, the “Door locked” indicator light goes off and you can open the door.

For example to add or remove laundry. Press the“Start/Pause”	button
again to continue the programme.

PROGRAMME END

The “Door locked” indicator light goes off and the display shows “End”. To switch off the washing machine after programme ends press the “ON/OFF” button, the lights goes off. If you do not press “ON/OFF” button, the washing machine will switch off automatically after about a 10 minutes. Close the water tap, open the door and unload the washing machine. Leave the door ajar to allow the drum to dry.

OPTIONS

!If the selected option is incompatible with the programme set, the incompatibility will be signalled by a buzzer (3 beeps) and the corresponding indicator light will flash.

!If the selected option is incompatible with another previously set option, only the most recent selection will remain active.

Energy saver

This option saves energy by not heating the water used to wash your laundry – an advantage both to the environment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified wash action and water optimisation ensure great wash results in the same average time of a standard cycle.

For the best washing results we recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.

Start Delay

To set the selected programme to start at a later time, press the button to set the desired delay time. Symbol lights on the display when this function is enabled. To cancel the delayed start, press the button again until the value‚ ‘‘0‘‘ is shown on the display.

Cleaning Action

Option “Cleaning Action” makes it possible to optimise washing based on the level of soil in the fabrics and on desired wash cycle intensity. For heavily-soiled garments press “Cleaning Action” button until the

“” level is reached. This level ensures a high-performance wash due to a larger quantity of water used in the initial phase of the cycle and due to increased drum rotation. It is useful when removing the most stubborn stains. For lightly-soiled garments or a more delicate treatment of the fabrics, press “Cleaning Action”button until the “ ”level is reached. The cycle will reduce drum rotation to ensure washing results that are perfect for delicate garments.

Multi Rinse

By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for sensitive skin. Press the button once, two or three times to select an additional 1 , 2 or 3 rinses after the standard cycle rinse and remove all traces of detergent. Press the button again to go back to the “Normal rinse”rinse type.

Temperature

Every programme has a predefined temperature. If you want to change the temperature, press the “Temp.”button. The value appears on the display.

Spin Speed

Every programme has a predefined spin speed. If you want to change the spin speed, press the “Spin Speed”button. The value appears on the display.
