PROGRAMMES

For choosing the appropriate programme for your kind of laundry, always respect the instructions on the care labels

of the laundry. The value given in the tub symbol is the maximum temperature possible for washing the garment.

Mixed

For washing lightly to normally soiled resilient garments in cotton, linen, synthetic fibres and mixed fibres.

White

For washing normally to heavily soiled towels, underwear, table and bed linen, etc in resilient cotton and linen. Only when the temperature is selected at 90°C the cycle is provided with a prewash phase before main washing phase. In this case it is recommended to add detergent both, in the prewash and main wash section.

Cotton

Normally to heavily soiled and robust cottons .

Eco 40-60

For washing normally soiled cotton garments declared to be washable at 40 °C or 60 °C, together in the same cycle. This is the standard cotton programme and the most efficient in terms of water and energy consumption.

Sport

For washing lightly soiled sports clothing (tracksuits, shorts, etc.). For best results, we recommend not exceeding the maximum load indicated in the‚‘‘PROGRAMME CHART‘‘. We recommend using liquid detergent , and adding the amount suitable for half-load.

Duvet

Designed for washing eiderdown padded items such as double or single duvets, cushions and anoraks. It is recommended to load such padded items in the drum with the edges folded inwards and not to exceed ¾ of the drum’s volume. For optimal washing, we recommend using a liquid detergent.

20 °C

For washing lightly soiled cotton garments, at a temperature of 20 °C.

Spin & Drain

Spins the load then empties the water. For resilient garments. If you exclude the spin cycle, the machine will drain only

Rinse & Spin

Rinses and then spins. For resilient garments.

Rapid 30’

For washing lightly soiled garments quickly. This cycle lasts only 30 minutes, saving time and energy.

Colours 15°

This cycle helps protect colours by washing in cold water (15°C) and uses less energy to heat the water while still offering satisfactory wash results. Suitable for lightly soiled, ustained garments. This cycle offers wash results comparable to 40°c mixed at just 15°C

Wool

All wool garments can be washed using programme‚“Wool“ even

those carryng the “hand-wash only “ label. For best results, use special detergents and do not exceed max kg declaration of laundry.

Delicates

For washing particularly delicate garments. Preferably turn garments inside out before washing.

Synthetics

For washing soiled garments made from synthetic fibres (such as polyester, polyacrylic, viscose, etc.) or cotton/synthetic blends.

Eco Cotton

For washing normally soiled cotton garments. At 40°C and 60°C.

FIRST TIME USE

To remove any manufacturing debris select the “Cotton” programme at a temperature of 60°C. Pour a small quantity of detergent powder into the main wash 2 compartment of the detergent dispenser (maximum

1/3 of the quantity the detergent manufacturer recommends for lightly soiled laundry). Start the programme without adding any laundry.

DAILY USE

Prepare your laundry according to the recommendations in the “HINTS AND TIPS”section. Load the laundry, close the door, open the water tap and press the “ON/OFF” button to switch the washing machine

on, the “Start/Pause”	button flashes. Turn the programme selector
to the desired programme and select any option if needed. The

temperature and spin speed can be changed by pressing the “Temp.” button or the “Spin Speed” button. Pull out the detergent dispenser and add the detergent (and additives/softener) now. Observe the dosing recommendations on the detergent pack. Then close the detergent dispenser and press the “Start/Pause” button. The “Start/Pause” button will lights up and the door will be locked.

OPEN THE DOOR, IF REQUIRED

After starting a programme, the “Door locked” indicator lights up to show that the door can not be opened. As long as a wash programme is running, the door remains locked. To open the door while a programme is in progress, press the “Start/Pause” to pause the programme. Provided the water level and/or temperature is/are not too high, the “Door locked” indicator light goes off and you can open the door. For example to add or remove laundry. Press the“Start/Pause” button again to continue the programme.

The “Door locked” indicator light goes off and the display shows “End”. To switch off the washing machine after programme ends press the “ON/OFF” button, the lights goes off. If you do not press “ON/ OFF” button, the washing machine will switch off automatically after about a 10 minutes. Close the water tap, open the door and unload the washing machine. Leave the door ajar to allow the drum to dry.

!If the selected option is incompatible with the programme set, the incompatibility will be signalled by a buzzer (3 beeps) and the corresponding indicator light will flash.

!If the selected option is incompatible with another previously set option, only the most recent selection will remain active.

Clean+

Clean+ is an option working on 3 different levels (Intensive, Daily and Fast) that are specially designed to set the right washing action, depending on your cleaning needs:

Intensive : this option is designed for high levels of dirtiness, removing most stubborn stains.

Daily: this option is designed to remove everyday stains. Fast: this option is designed to remove lightly soiled stains.

Intensive rinse

By selecting this option, the efficiency of the rinse is increased and optimal detergent removal is guaranteed. It is particularly useful for sensitive skin. Press the button once, two or three times to select an additional 1 +1 , 2 +2 or 3+3 rinses after the standard cycle rinse and remove all traces of detergent. Press the button again to go back to the “Normal rinse”rinse type.

Start delay

To set the selected programme to start at a later time, press the button to set the desired delay time. Symbol lights on the display when this fuction is enabled. To cancel the delayed start, press the button again until the value‚‘‘0‘‘ is shown on the display.

FreshCare+

This option enhances washing performance by generating steam to inhibit the proliferation of the main bad odour sources inside the

machine. After steam phase, the washing machine will perform gentle tumbling through slow rotations of the drum. FreshCare+ option starts after the cycle ends for a maximum duration of 6h and you can interrupt at any time by pressing any button on control panel or turning the knob.
