Thank you for choosing an Indesit product. This washer
is reliable and easy to use.
We suggest you read your owner's manual carefully.
This will help you become familiar with your washer
and its functions in order to obtain years of trouble
free performance.
Saves while it washes
The double action wash penetrates so deeply that at just
60°C you obtain the same results you would normally obtain
at 90°C with a traditional washer.
Controlled consumption
The machine automatically adjusts the amount of water used
in the wash to the size of the load, giving optimum use of
water, energy and detergent.
Double-action wash
Clothes are soaked in water and detergent, water then
“rains” steadily through the clothes.
Safety, a good habit to g et into

F . Rinse Hold button
This function interrupts the cycle so that the laundry is left
soaking in water before the spin cycle.
This function is extremely useful because it stops delicate or
synthetic fabrics from creasing (for example when one has
to wait several hours before removing the laundry load).
It should be used only with the programmes for synthetic
fabrics and woollens.
IMPORTANT: Before opening the door, drain away the water
by setting knob A on "drain". To carry out the spin cycle,
simply press F.
G. ON/OFF Indicator light
When this is lit, the machine is on.
C. Detergent
dispenser
The detergent dispenser has
three compartments marked
1, 2 and 3:

Using your washer
Preparing your laundry....
Divide your laundry by fabric and colour fastness. Wash white
and coloured items separately.
Remember to empty pockets, removing especially those small
items like coins, paper, pins and badges that might jam the
pump. Fasten or remove loose buttons and fasten zippers.
Turn shirts inside out for better results.
Check wash labels
Garments and laundry generally have wash instruction labels
(which tell you if they shloud be dry-cleaned, hand washed
or machine washed) showing the wash temperature, how
to iron etc.
Important: fabrics should only be machine washed if their
labels show the appropriate symbol (see table 1).

Alternate small and large items when
loading your washer
This washing machine has an electronic load balancing
control: before carrying out the spin cycle, this device ensures
that the laundry is arranged as evenly as possible in the drum,
according to the type of fabric and the way it was initially
loaded. This will minimize vibration and noise even during
the fastest spin cycle. For best results however, we
recommend you alternate small and large items when you
load your washing machine remember to spread them out;
never wash large loads of terry cloth items.
