Prewash cycle increases programme duration approximately 15 min. Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in compliance with standard IEC 60 456. Consumption data in the home may vary with respect to the values in the table in relation to the water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of wash. The data on the “Energy Label” refer to the programme “Coloured Cotton 60°C”. * The remaining time indicator can similarly deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the

household conditions applicable at that time.

**To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle, before the pump drains

the water out.

PREPARATION OF WASH CYCLE

1. Close the drum flaps and check that they are properly locked.

2. Add detergents and additives into the dispenser to no more then the

Intensive Rinse button

• The water level increases for improved rinsing efficiency.

NOTES AND INDICATIONS FOR USE

• After switching your washing machine on, it does not start immediately: it needs some seconds in order to lock the door, fill water and then drum starts turning.

• Spinning has an interrupted start-up: the drum starts and stops running several times, to improve spin efficiency and to better balance the laundry.

• At the end of the spinning cycle the drum goes on reversing for some minutes: this helps you unloading the laundry.

• Do not exceed in detergents dosage: excessive foam formation may prevent spinning.

• The turning of the drum is stopped in several steps of the washing cycle due to optimization of energy consumption.

• Your imbalance detection and correction system reduces spin speed or interrupts the spin automatically in case of imbalance load see "troubleshooting guide".

• Your machine has a new, electronicallycontrolled motor: don't be surprised by its sound.

• If you want to change the programme during the wash cycle, remember to switch the machine off before turning the programme selector knob.
