Indicator lights
The indicator lights provide important information.
This is what they can tell you:
Delayed start
If the DELAY TIMER function has been activated (see “Per-
sonalisation”), after the wash cycle has been started the
indicator light corresponding to the selected delay period
will begin to flash:
As time passes, the remaining delay will be displayed and
the corresponding indicator light will flash:
Once the set delay has elapsed, the flashing indicator light will
switch off and the selected wash cycle will begin.
Wash cycle phase indicator lights
Once the desired wash cycle has been selected and has
begun, the indicator lights switch on one by one to indicate
which phase of the cycle is currently in progress.
ON/OFF button: switches the washing machine on and off.
WASH CYCLE knob: programmes the wash cycles. During
the wash cycle, the knob does not move.
FUNCTION buttons with indicator light: used to select the
available functions. The indicator light corresponding to the
selected function will remain lit.
TEMPERATURE knob: sets the temperature or the cold
wash cycle (see “Personalisation”).
SPIN SPEED knob: sets the spin speed or exclude the spin
cycle completely (see “Personalisation”).
WASH CYCLE PROGRESS/DELAY TIMER indicator
lights: used to monitor the progress of the wash cycle. The
illuminated indicator light shows which phase is in progress.
If the Delay Timer function has been set, the time remaining
until the wash cycle starts will be indicated (see next page).
LID LOCKED indicator light: indicates whether the door
may be opened or not (see next page).
START/PAUSE button with indicator light: starts or tempo-
rarily interrupts the wash cycles.
N.B. To pause the wash cycle in progress, press this button;
the corresponding indicator light will flash orange, while the
indicator light for the current wash cycle phase will remain
lit in a fixed manner. If the LID LOCKED
indicator light
is switched off, the door may be opened. To start the wash
cycle from the point at which it was interrupted, press this
button again.
Standby mode
This washing machine, in compliance with new energy saving
regulations, is fitted with an automatic standby system which
is enabled after about 30 minutes if no activity is detected.
Press the ON-OFF button briefly and wait for the machine
to start up again.
