Prewash cycle increases programme duration by aproximately 20 min. Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in compliance with standard IEC/EN 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. * 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. ** Reference Programme for Energy Label. *** The remaining time indicator can deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the household conditions applicable at that time.

PREPARATION OF THE WASH CYCLE

1. Load the machine, close the drum doors and check that they are properly locked.

2. Add detergent and additives into the dispenser to no more than the “MAX” level mark, as follows:

• Programme with pre and main wash

• Main wash programme without prewash

• Fabric softeners and conditioners

• Stain remover agents

• Anti-scale agents (if necessary)

3. Close the lid.

4. Turn the programme selector to the desired programme and temperature. The time display shows the duration of the chosen programme (in hours and minutes), and the lamp next to the “Start Pause” button flashes. The indication lamp of the predefined spin speed lights up.

SELECT THE DESIRED OPTION(S)

Selecting or deselecting an option can be done at any time during the programme. The option will be applied as long as the corresponding programme phase has not been executed yet. “Lightly soiled” button

• Reduces water consumption, above all during rinsing.

• Suitable for lightly soiled laundry and small loads (max. 3 kg).

“Eco” button

• With a modified temperature profile and a slightly prologned washing duration, the optimum combination of excellent washing result and even lower energy consumption is achieved.

“Prewash” button

• Only for heavily soiled loads (for example sand, granular dirt) sensible. Increases the cycle time by approximately 20 min.

“Intensive Rinse” button

• The amount of water is increased to ensure a more intensive rinse.

• This option is particularly suitable for areas with very soft water, washing baby linen and people with skin allergies.

“Rinse Hold” button

• The laundry remains in the last rinse water without

progressing to the final spin cycle to avoid creasing and prevent colours from changing.

• This option is particularly recommended for the “Synthetics”, “Daily load” and “Delicates” programmes.

• It is useful if you want to postpone spinning to a later time, or if you want to drain out only.

• If you select “Rinse Hold”, do not leave items to soak for too long.

• As soon as the appliance stops in the rinse hold, the “Anticrease” lamp of the sequence indicator lights up and the lamp next to the “Start/Pause” button flashes.

Terminate the “Rinse Hold” option:

• Press the “Start/Pause” button; the programme will terminate automatically with the final spin cycle for the present wash programme.

• If you do not wish to spin the clothes, turn the programme selector knob to the “Drain” programme and press the “Start/Pause” button.

“Variable spin” button

• Every programme has a predefined spin speed.

• Press the button to set another spin speed.

• If spin speed “0” is selected, the final spinning is cancelled but intermediate spin peaks remain during the rinse. The water is drained out only.

START DELAY

The “Start delay” button allows the user to run the machine at his convenience, for example at night when electricity is cheaper.

• Select programme, spin speed and options.

• Press the “Start Delay” button several times to select a delay time by 1 to 23 hours.

• Start the programme (see “Progremme Start”). The indication lamp over the “Start delay” button lights up and goes off when the programme starts.

• Once having pressed the “Start/Pause” button, the countdown of the time delay begins. The time delay indication on the display disappears when the programme starts and is replaced by the remaining time.

• After the “Start/Pause” button has been pressed, the number of hours preselected can be reduced by pressing again the “Start delay” button.

To cancel the “Start delay” ..before you press the “Start/Pause” button:

• Turn the programme selector to another position or press the “Reset” button.

..after having pressed the “Start/Pause” button:

• Press the “Reset” button for at least 3 second. The start delay indicator light goes off.

Open the tap and press the “Start/Pause” button. The indication lamp next to the “Start/Pause” button lights up. The programme sequence indicator shows the current programme phase, running from left to right through Wash, Rinse, Spin/Drain. When the programme phrase is finised, the corresponding indication goes out.

• Note: If there is a power interruption or if the appliance is disconnected during the cycle, the programme will run again from the point where it was interrupted.

“DOOR OPEN” INDICATION

Before starting and after end of a programme, the lamp lights to show the the lid can be opened. As long as a wash programme is running, the lid remains locked and must on no account be forced open. In case you have an urgent need to open it during a running programme, refer to “Cancel (Reset) a running programme before the end”.
