During the selected washing

programme the programme selector

knob moves by steps clockwise

through the phases

prewash

main

wash

rinse and spin

(shown in grey

sections around the knob). Each

step takes from some seconds to

several minutes.

• Consumption data were measured in normalized conditions in compliance with Standard IEC 60 456.

• Consumption values in the home may vary with respect to the values in the table depending on the

water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of laundry washed.

PROGRAMME SELECTION

1. Open the tap.

2. Set the

programme selector

to the desired programme.

3. Set the

temperature selector

to the desired temperature.

Special options

can be selected.

5. Check that the door is well closed and turn on the washing machine by pressing the

“ON/OFF”

button. The indicator lights up, indicating that the washing machine is on.

SPECIAL OPTIONS THAT CAN BE SELECTED

Easy Ironing

• Can be used together with Cotton and Synthetic programmes to make ironing easier.

• Increases the water quantity and the clothes are spun very soft.

Intensive Rinse

• Increases the rinsing time and water quantity.

• This option is especially suitable in areas with extremely soft water, for baby linen and

helps people with detergent allergies.

Rinse Hold

• This option is especially suitable for the “Synthetic” or “Delicate” programmes.

• The laundry remains in the last rinse water without being spun to avoid heavy creasing

and discolouration.

To terminate the “Rinse Hold” option:

• Press the “Rinse Hold” button again; the programme will terminate automatically with

the appropriate spin for the current programme.

• If you do not wish to spin the clothes, switch off the appliance, turn the programme

knob to the corresponding drain programme and switch it on again.

Spin speed reduction

• Reduces the predetermined automatic maximum spin speed.

In some programmes the maximum final spin speed is limited to go easy on your

laundry items. Selection of a higher spin speed is not possible.

PROGRAMME CHANGE

To reselect a programme when a cycle has already begun:

1. Switch off the appliance by pressing the “

ON/OFF

” button.

2. Select the new programme.

3. Start the programme by pressing the “

ON/OFF

” button.

PROGRAMME END

1. At the end of the programme the programme selector moves to the stop position .

2. To unload the machine wait for the door to unlock (about 1 minute).

3. Switch off the appliance, open the door and take out the laundry.

4. Close the tap and leave the door ajar to allow the drum to dry out.

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 filter regular and clean it if

necessary.
