Note: WE RECOMMEND USING DETERGENT IN POWDER FORM WHENEVER
A PRE-WASH IS PROGRAMMED.
DETERGENT DISPENSER
The detergent dispenser is divided into 4 compartments:
• Compartment I, is for prewash powder detergent. The recommended quantity is
60 gm of detergent (for 5 kg of laundry).
• Compartment II, is for wash powder detergent. The recommended quantity is 120
gm of detergent (for 5 kg of laundry).
• The compartment is for bleach. The recommended quantity is 7 cl.
• The compartment is for fabric conditioners, scenting agents and special
additives. The recommended quantity is 5 cl.
The detergent compartment has two guidance lines:
• RECOMMENDED (lower line). This indicates the recommended level for the prewash
and wash compartments.
• MAX. This indicates the maximum level which should never be exceeded.

AUTOMATIC VARIABLE CAPACITY – FUZZY LOGIC ELECTRONICS
This machine has electronics that automatically process all stages of the wash to
ensure exceptional results and at the same time save you time and money.
Once a programme has been selected, the machine
optimises the following elements
depending on the wash load and type of fabric:
- quantity of water and power consumption
-wash time
-drum rotation rate
-rinse efficiency
The washing machine also:
- detects suds and increases the amount of rinse water if necessary
- adjusts spin speed according to load distribution, thus forestalling any imbalance in
the mechanism.

t
. PROGRAMME STAGE CONTROL LAMPS
The current programme stage is displayed throughout the pro-
gramme selected.
C.
SPIN SELECTOR
THE CONTROL CAN BE TURNED IN BOTH DIRECTIONS
This is one of the most important parts of the wash cycle. This machine
has a spin cycle flexible enough to meet all requirements.Turn the
selector to reduce maximum and intermediate spin speeds. Spin can
even be eliminated altogether (setting ).
NB: THE ELECTRONICS IN THE MACHINE DISABLE THE SPIN
FUNCTION WHEN THE LOAD IS UNEVENLY DISTRIBUTED,
AND LIMIT VIBRATIONS AND NOISE DURING WASHING.
12
USING THE SELECTORS
D. SUPER FAST BUTTON
When this button is engaged programme times are cut by as much
as 50 minutes, depending on the wash programme and temperature
selected. This button works only with loads of between 2 and 5 kg. of
washing, and with the Cottons and Mixed Synthetics programmes.
E. SUPER RINSE BUTTON
The new electronic system engaged by this button activates a special
rinse cycle. More water and a new combination of drum rotation
movements during filling and emptying ensure that washing is perfectly
rinsed.
This function is designed for people with sensitive, delicate skins
in whom even tiny amounts of bleach could cause irritation or
allergic reactions.
It is also recommendable for washing baby clothes, heavily soiled
clothes which need large amounts of bleach and spongy articles
which tend to retain bleach.
13
USING THE SELECTORS
F. .
EASY IRON BUTTON
This function helps reduce creasing, depending on the programme
selected and the type of fabric washed.
MIXED FABRICS:
- the water is cooled gradually to prevent heat shock
- the drum is not moved mechanically during emptying
- a mild spin is used to ensure that fibres are smoothed out as much
as possible.
DELICATE FABRICS (OTHER THAN WOOLLENS):
- The machine operates as indicated above and stops with the drum full of water after the
last rinse.
WOOLLENS:
- The machine stops with the drum full of water.
To complete the cycle for delicates and woollens, proceed as follows
1.- Disengage the Easy Iron (wrinkle reduction) button. The cycle will then run to completion,
with emptying and spin.
2.- Or just empty the drum:
- stop the machine by pressing Start/ Stop.
- set the programme control to OFF.
- select programme .
- wait 5 seconds.
- start up the machine.

in each group are the longest, and therefore those that ensure the
most effective wash results. Use the remaining programmes only
for lightly soiled washing and especially delicate garments.

REMARKS
1.For very heavily soiled washing, use loads of no more than 3 kg.
2. With the Cottons programmes (WHITES 90º - FAST COLOUREDS 60º) automatic whitening can
be obtained by adding bleach to dispenser .
3. The machine is designed to add fabric softener automatically during the last rinse in all wash
cycles.‘
SPECIFIC PROGRAMMES
HAND WASH
This machine has a hand wash programme which enables you to machine-wash clothes which
are intended to be washed by hand. The programme runs at 30 ºC and ends with 3 rinses and a
spin specifically designed for highly delicate garments.
SPECIAL RINSE PROGRAMME
This programme runs through three rinses and a spin at 800 rpm (spin speed can be reduced or
spin can be eliminated completely). This can be used to rinse all types of fabric, e.g. after hand
washing.
SPECIAL VIGOROUS SPIN PROGRAMME
This runs through a spin cycle at 1000 rpm (spin speed can be reduced)
EMPTY ONLY
This empties the water from the machine.
MIX & WASH
The MIX & WASH programme enables all types of fabric to be washed together.
- Never mix coloureds that dye.
- New coloured items should be washed separately the first time.
32’ FAST PROGRAMME
This programme runs through a full wash cycle for a maximum of 2 kg of washing at 50 ºC in just
32 minutes.
Put the detergent in dispenser II. Use no more than approximately 1/4 of the recommended
amount of bleach (35 g. at most).
The 32’ fast programme can also be used as a pre-wash cycle for particularly heavily soiled
garments before the regular wash programme desired.
