SELECT ANY DESIRED OPTION

“Spin Speed Reduction” button

• Reduces predetermined automatic maximum

spin speed.
In some programmes the maximum nal spin
speed is limited to protect your laundry
items. Selection of a higher spin speed is not
possible.

“Half Load” button

• Reduces water consumption, above all during

rinsing.

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

“Rinse Hold” button

• The laundry remains in the last rinse water

without progressing to the nal spin cycle to
avoid creasing and prevent colours from
changing.

• This option is particularly recommended for the
programme “Synthetics” or “Delicates”.

• This function is particularly useful if you want to
postpone spinning to a later time, or if you want
to drain only.

NOTES AND INDICATIONS FOR USE

• WATER LEVEL

It may not be visible as the cycle is optimised
for a minimum water consumption without
compromising washing results.

• SPIN SPEED CONTROL

Spin speed may be reduced automatically or
may even be excluded in the case of small
loads with highly absorbent garments (e.g.
bathrobes, bathmat).
This control avoids cloth and machine damage
and excessive vibrations and consequent noise
produced by the machine due to load
unbalance: by selecting high spin speeds the
noise level increases.

• MOTOR NOISE

The running noises of the new, electronically­ controlled motor are not the same as the ones
you are used to from your old appliance. Don't
be surprised - modern technology has a modern
sound.

• CLEANING THE FILTER

To ensure an impeccable function of the pump,
check the lter regularly and clean it if
necessary.
