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.

*The time indicated on the display can deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the operation 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.

***Reference Programme for Energy Label (with separator in dispenser removed for powder detergent use).

ADD DETERGENTS, CLOSE THE DOOR AND SELECT THE PROGRAMME

“Clean +” button

•Choose this option if you use an in-wash additive for stain removal (powder, for example “Vanish”) - it will optimize the additive’s efficiency to get better wash performance and stain removal.

•Choose temperature of 30 or 40°C and use with maximum load.

•Add an appropriate amount of in-wash additive for stain removal (powder) to the main wash chamber, together with your detergent (only use powder detergent with this option). Respect the manufacturer’s dosing instructions.

•Do not use liquid detergent for the main wash when activating the Prewash option.

“Intensive rinse” button

•More water is added and rinse cycle is prolonged.

“Easy ironing” button

•Reduces creasing by an increased water quantity and a very gentle spin.

“Rinse hold” button

•Press the button if you want to postpone spinning to a later time or if you want to drain only.

•The laundry will remain in the last rinse water without progressing to the final spin cycle to avoid creasing and prevent colours from changing.

•Do not leave the laundry to soak in the “Rinse hold” for too long.

•The washing machine stops to rinse hold as soon as the “Rinse hold” light in the programme sequence indicator blinks. The

“Start (Pause)” button also blinks.

The “Start delay” allows to run the machine at the consumer’s convenience, for example at night when electricity is cheaper. Do not use liquid detergent when activating the “Start delay”.

•Select programme, temperature and options.

•Press the “Start delay” button to select a delay time up to 23 hours. The light of the “Start (Pause)” button blinks.

•Press the “Start (Pause)” button . The countdown of the delay time begins. The light of the “Start (Pause)” button stops blinking and is on. The light of the start delay button will

The display shows the remaining programme time. Due to variations in load and temperature of inlet water, the remaining time is newly calculated in certain programme phases. If this is the case, an animation appears on the display.

CHILD LOCK

Activating the child lock prevents children from starting a wash cycle or changing the settings of a running programme. The child lock cannot be activated or deactivated when the programme selector is in the “Off/O” position. To activate the child lock:

•Turn the programme selector to a programme position, or run a programme as usual.

•Press the 2 buttons marked with the key symbol simultaneously for at least 3 seconds. A key-like symbol will shortly appear on the display to indicate that the child lock is active.

Any time you try to change a programme setting with active child lock, the display will shortly show the key-like symbol. The programme setting cannot be changed anymore. The only change possible is to switch the washer off by turning the programme selector to the “Off/O” position. To deactivate the child lock:

•Press again the 2 buttons marked with the key symbol simultaneously for at least 3 seconds.

“DOOR OPEN” INDICATION

Before starting and after end of a programme, the lamp lights to show that the door can be opened. As long as a wash programme is running, the door 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 “Reset a running programme before the end”.

RED INDICATIONS

“Service”

Lighting up of the “Service” indication can be caused by a fault in an electrical component. Refer to the “Troubleshooting Guide” in your Instructions for Use. If the fault persists, contact our After Sales Service.

“Water tap closed”

The appliance has no or insufficient water supply. Open the water tap. If the indication still lights up, refer to the “Troubleshooting Guide” in the Instructions for Use.

“Clean pump”

DETERGENT OVERDOSAGE INDICATION

In case you used too much detergent, a small vertical bar will light next to the overdosage symbol on the right of the display when the wash programme is finished. Use less detergent next time. Too much foam by detergent overdosing can also lead to interruption of a wash cycle. In this case the display shows “Fod” - follow the recommendations in the “Troubleshooting Guide” in your Instructions for Use to solve the problem.
