Special programme
Delicates (programme J for Synthetics) is designed to wash lightly soiled garments in a short amount of time: it
only lasts 30 minutes and allows you to save on both time and energy. By setting this programme (J at 30°C), you
can wash different fabrics together (except for woollen and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg.
We recommend the use of liquid detergent.
Briefly: starting a programme
1. Turn the washing machine on by pressing button .
All the icons will light up for a few seconds and
then go off.
2. Load your laundry into the washing machine and
shut the appliance door.
3. Set the knob to the desired programme. The
estimated duration of the selected programme
is displayed. The temperature and spin speed
are automatically set according to the
programme (to change them, see page 9).
4. Add the detergent and any fabric softener
(see page 10).
5. Select any function (see page 9).
6. Start he programme by pressing the START/
RESET button.
To cancel it, keep the START/RESET button
pressed for at least 2 seconds.
