The cycle duration indicated on the display or instruction manual is an estimate based on
standard conditions. The actual duration may vary in relation to several factors, such as
the temperature and pressure of the incoming water, ambient temperature, amount of
detergent, load quantity and type, load balancing and any additional options selected.
1) Test wash cycle in compliance with regulation 1061/2010:
This cycle is designed for normally soiled cotton loads and is the most ecient in terms of
both electricity and water consumption; it should be used for garments washable at 60°C or
at 40°C. The actual washing temperature may dier from the indicated value.
For all testing institutes:
2) Long cotton cycle: set cycle 4 at a temperature of 40°C.
3) Long synthetics cycle: set cycle 3 at a temperature of 40°C.
* By selecting the cycle and excluding the spin cycle, the washing machine will drain only.

WASH CYCLES
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.
White
Extremely soiled whites.
Mix Colored 40°
A 40°C cycle that helps to preserve colours, suitable for cotton or
synthetic coloured garments. It allows for reducing electricity
consumption for heating the water while guaranteeing good washing
results. Suitable for lightly soiled garments.
Synthetics
Suitable for washing moderately soiled garments made of synthetic bres
(e.g. polyester, polyacrylic, viscose, etc.) or mixed synthetic-cotton bres.
Cotton
Lightly soiled whites and delicate colours.
Eco Cotton 60°/40°
Suitable for washing moderately soiled cotton garments. At 40°C and
60°C it is the standard cycle for washing cotton garments, and is the most
ecient in terms of combined water and electricity consumption.
Cotton Standard
ideal for lightly soiled cotton loads. The eective performance levels
achieved at cold temperatures, which are comparable to washing at 40°,
are guaranteed by a mechanical action which operates at varying speed,
with repeated and frequent peaks.
Mix Light
ideal for mixed loads (cotton and synthetics) with a normal soil level. The
eective per formance levels achieved at cold temperatures are guaranteed by a
mechanical action which operates at varying speed, across set average intervals
20’ Refresh
ideal for refreshing and washing lightly soiled garments in a few minutes.
It lasts just 20 minutes and therefore saves both time and energy. It can
be used to wash dierent types of fabrics together (except for wool and
silk), with a maximum load of 1.5 kg.
Delicate 30°
use programme 9 to wash very delicate garments. It is advisable to turn
the garments inside out before washing them. For best results, use liquid
detergent on delicate garments.
Wool
all wool garments can be washed using programme 10, even those
carrying the “hand-wash only” label. For best results, use special
detergents and do not exceed 1 kg of laundry.
Jeans 40°
Turn garments inside-out before washing and use a liquid detergent.
Sport Intensive
is for washing heavily soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts,
etc.); for best results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load
indicated in the “Wash Cycle Table”.
Sport Light
is for washing lightly soiled sports clothing fabrics (tracksuits, shorts, etc.);
for best results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load
indicated in the “Wash Cycle Table”. We recommend using a liquid
detergent and dosage suitable for a half-load.
Sport Shoes
is for washing sports shoes; for best results, do not wash more than 2
pairs simultaneously.
Rinse
designed for rinsing and spinning.
Spin + Drain
designed to spin and drain the water.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
The indicator lights provide important information. This is what they can tell you:
Delayed start
If the DELAY TIMER function has been activated, after the wash cycle has
been started the indicator light corresponding to the selected delay
period will begin to ash:
As time passes, the remaining delay will be displayed and the
corresponding indicator light will ash:
The set programme will start once the selected time delay has expired.
Wash cycle phase indicator lights
Once the desired wash cycle has been selected and has begun, the
indicator lights switch on one by one to indicate which phase of the cycle
is currently in progress.

time, run a wash cycle with detergent and no laundry, by setting the “1”
cycle.
DAILY USE
Prepare the laundry by following the suggestions appearing under the
“TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS” section.
- Press the ON/OFF button ; the START/PAUSE indicator light will
ash slowly green.
- Open the door. Load the laundry while making sure not to exceed the
maximum load quantity indicated in the Wash Cycle Table.
- Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into the
relevant compartments as described in “DETERGENT DISPENSER DRAWER”
section.
- Close the door.
- Select the desired wash cycle.
- Set the washing temperature.
- Set the spin speed.
- Select the desired options.
- Press the START/PAUSE button to start the wash cycle; the relative
indicator light will light up steady green and the door will lock ( symbol
on).
PAUSING A CYCLE
To pause the wash cycle, press the START/PAUSE button again; the
indicator light will ash amber. If the symbol is not lit, the door may be
opened (wait approximately 3 minutes). To start the wash cycle from the
point at which it was interrupted, press the START/PAUSE button again.
OPENING THE DOOR, IF NECESSARY
Once a cycle starts, the symbol turns on to signal that the door cannot
be opened. While a wash cycle is running, the door remains locked. To
open the door while a cycle is under way, for example, to add or remove
garments, press the START/PAUSE button to pause the cycle; the
indicator light will ash amber. If the symbol is not lit, the door may be
opened (wait approximately 3 minutes). Press the START/PAUSE button
again to continue the cycle.
CHANGING A RUNNING WASH CYCLE
To change a wash cycle while it is in progress, pause the washing machine
using the START/PAUSE button (the relative indicator light will ash
amber), then select the desired cycle and press the START/PAUSE
button again.
! To cancel a cycle that has already begun, press and hold the ON/OFF
button. The cycle will be stopped and the machine will switch o.
END OF THE CYCLE
Once the cycle terminates the END indicator light will light up; when the
indicator light switches o, the door may be opened (wait
approximately 3 minutes). Open the door, unload the laundry and switch
o the machine. If you do not press ON/OFF button, the washing
machine will switch o automatically after about a half of an hour.
OPTIONS
- If the selected function is not compatible with the programmed wash
cycle, the corresponding indicator light will ash and the function will
not be activated.
- If the selected function is not compatible with another function which
has been selected previously, the indicator light corresponding to the
rst function selected will ash and only the second function will be
activated; the indicator light corresponding to the enabled option will
remain lit.
Selecting this option enables you to suitably adjust drum rotation,
temperature and water to a reduced load of lightly soiled cotton and
synthetic fabrics. “ ” enables you to wash in less time thereby
saving water and electricity. We suggest using a liquid detergent suitably
measured out to the load quantity.
The function saves energy by not heating the water used to
wash your laundry - an advantage both to the environment and to your
energy bill. Instead, intensied 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.
Extra Rinse
By selecting this option, the eciency of the rinse is increased and optimal
detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for sensitive skin.
Delay Timer
This timer delays the start time of the wash cycle by up to 12 hours.
Press the button repeatedly until the indicator light corresponding to the
desired delay time switches on. The fth time the button is pressed, the
function will be disabled.
N.B. Once the START/PAUSE button has been pressed, the delay time
can only be modied by decreasing it until launching the set programme.
Temperature
Turn the TEMPERATURE knob to set the wash temperature (see Wash
Cycle Table).
The temperature may be lowered, or even set to a cold wash .
The washing machine will automatically prevent you from selecting a
temperature which is higher than the maximum value set for each wash
cycle.
Spin
Turn the SPIN SPEED knob to set the spin speed for the selected wash cycle.
The spin speed may be lowered, or the spin cycle can be excluded
altogether by selecting the symbol .
The washing machine will automatically prevent you from selecting a spin
speed which is higher than the maximum speed set for each wash cycle.
TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS
Divide the laundry according to:
Type of fabric (cotton, mixed bres, synthetics, wool, garments to be
hand-washed). Colour (separate coloured garments from whites, wash
new coloured garments separately). Delicates (small garments – such as
nylon stockings – and items with hooks – such as bras: insert them in a
fabric bag).
Empty the pockets:
Objects such as coins or lighters can damage the washing machine and
the drum. Check all buttons.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Before performing cleaning and maintenance, switch the washing machine
o and disconnect it from the mains power. Do not use ammable liquids to
clean the washing machine.
Disconnect the water and power supplies
Close the water tap after every wash. This will limit wear on the hydraulic
system inside the washing machine and help to prevent leaks.
Unplug the washing machine when cleaning it and during all
maintenance work.
Clean the washing machine
The outer parts and rubber components of the appliance can be cleaned using
a soft cloth soaked in lukewarm soapy water. Do not use solvents or abrasives.
Clean the detergent dispenser drawer
Wash it under running water; this operation should be repeated
frequently.
Care for the door and drum
Always leave the porthole door ajar in order to prevent unpleasant
odours from forming.
Clean the pump
The washing machine is tted with a auto-cleaning pump that does not require
any maintenance. Small items (such as coins or buttons) may sometimes fall
into the protective pre-chamber situated at the base of the pump.
! Make sure the wash cycle has ended and unplug the appliance.
To access the pre-chamber:
1. remove the cover panel on the front of the machine by rst pressing it
in the centre then pushing downwards on both sides to extract it;
2. loosen the drainage pump cover by turning it anti-clockwise: it is
normal for some water to leak out;
3. clean the inside thoroughly;
4. screw the cover back on;
5. put the panel back in place, making sure the hooks slot in place before
pushing the panel onto the appliance.
Check the water inlet hose
Check the water inlet hose at least once a year. If it is cracked or broken, it
must be replaced: during wash cycles, the high pressure of the water
could suddenly split the hose open.
! Never use hoses that have already been used.
LOAD BALANCING SYSTEM
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations before every spin and
to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously
at a speed which is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If,
after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, the machine
spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively unbalanced, the
washing machine performs the distribution process instead of spinning. To
encourage improved load distribution and balance, we recommend small
and large garments are mixed in the load.
ACCESSORIES
Contact our Technical Assistance Service to check whether the following
accessories are available for this washing machine model.
Stacking kit
With this accessory you can secure the tumble dryer to the upper part of
your washing machine to save space and facilitate loading and unloading
of the tumble dryer.
TRANSPORT AND HANDLING
Do not lift the washing machine by gripping it from the upper section.
Unplug the appliance and close the water tap. Check that the door and
detergent dispenser drawer are tightly closed. Detach the lling hose
from the water tap then detach the drain hose. Empty all the water
remaining in the hoses and secure the latter so that they do not get
damaged during transport. Apply the transport bolts back on. Repeat, in
reverse order, the transport bolt removal procedure described in the
“Health & Safety and Installation Guides”.
