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” - 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.
