Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions, in compliance with IEC/EN 60456. In the home, they may vary depending on the individual water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of wash. The consumption data indicated are based on an inlet water temperature of approx. 15°C through the cold fill valve as well as the hot fill valve (if available). If your washing machine has a hot fill valve, connection of this valve to hot water supply will lower the energy consumption by reduced heating times, depending on the individual hot fill inlet water temperature. Water and energy consumptions refer to the default setting of the programmes, with temperature and load as indicated in the table; selecting any options or changing the spin speed will also change the consumption data.

The programme duration may differ from the values indicated above as it depends on the operation conditions applicable at that time (see also “Troubleshooting Guide” in your Instructions for Use).

* Reference programmes for Energy Label. ** To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle before the water is drained.

*** Automatic adaptation of programme duration after detection of wash load.

“Spin speed” button

• Press the button to change the predefined spin speed.

• If you select spin speed “0”, the final spinning is cancelled, and the water is drained out only. However, intermediate spin phases remain during rinse.

SET CYCLE END (“FINISH IN”)

With this function you can postpone your programme to complete at a later time: press the button to select in how many hours the programme shall be finished. Thus, it allows you to have your laundry ready at a particular time and to profit from more favourable energy rates during the night, for example.

• Do not use liquid detergent when activating this function.

• The time until the cycle end can be selected in full hour time segments (1 to 24 h). When you press the button, the shortest possible time will be displayed; keep on pressing the button to loop through all the available times. To remove it again, keep on pressing the button until you see the value “0:00”.

• When you have selected the desired time until the cycle end, press “Start/Pause” - the countdown will begin.

• During the countdown, you can still modify the programme setting (select or deselect options, change spin speed etc.). If the modifications prolong the programme duration so that it overruns the originally set time until the cycle end, the programme will start immediately.

• Sometimes the programme may finish before the selected time until the cycle end has expired (e.g. for small loads). In this case, the washing machine will tumble the laundry regularly to keep it fresh, until the selected cycle end time has expired. During tumbling, the display will show an animation. The tumbling phase can be stopped at any time either by pressing any button or by rotating the programme selector; the animation will stop and the door will unlock in about 1 minute as indicated on the display.

• 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 briefly 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 proceed in the same way as for activating it.

SAVE YOUR FAVOURITE PROGRAMMES

If there is a programme setting which you use frequently, the appliance offers the possibility to save one setting for each programme so that it can be used again by just pushing one button.

• Select the desired programme, temperature, spin speed and option(s), press and hold the “Favourites” button for a few seconds. The “Favourites” indicator briefly blinks and then lights up - the programme setting is saved.

Next time you want to use your individual programme setting, select the programme, briefly push the “Favourites” button and start by pressing “Start/Pause” .

If you want to replace the saved programme setting by another one, proceed as already described above - the previous setting will be replaced by the new one.
