4 “TEMPERATURE” button
Press this button if you wish to set a different
temperature from that suggested by the machine for the
type of wash selected (see programme chart): the
corresponding pilot light comes on.
The COLD position is for a wash with cold water.
5 SPIN SPEED button
Press this button to select the required spin speed,
remembering that:
- for cottons (White cotton, Coloured cotton) the
maximum spin speed is 1500 rpm for FL 15 and
1200 rpm for FL 12;
- for synthetics and wool (Synthetic, Wool) the
maximum spin speed is 1000 rpm for FL 15 and
900 rpm for FL 12;
- for delicate fabrics (Delicate) the maximum spin
speed is 700 rpm.
When the RINSE HOLD option is selected, the last
rinse water is not drained to prevent creasing of the
fabrics: the pilot light flashes at the end of the
programme to indicate that the water must be emptied
out.
This can be done in three ways:
- select a spin speed and press the START/PAUSE
button
- just press the START/PAUSE button; after emptying,
the machine performs the spin cycle for the type of
wash selected
- select the DRAIN programme to empty out the
water without spinning.
The RINSE HOLD option can also be selected for
the wool programme: the last rinse water is drained
but the machine does not spin.
The machine automatically drains after 18 hours, if a
drain or spin option is not selected.
6 “OPTIONS” button
This button can be used to select the following options:
- PREWASH: the machine performs a prewash cycle
at 40°C max. and the wash cycle is extended by
about 10 minutes. The prewash cycle ends with a
short spin for the White cotton, Coloured cotton and
Synthetic programmes, and with emptying of the
water only for the Delicate programme.
- QUICK WASH: by selecting this option the
washing time is reduced. For use when washing
lightly soiled laundry.
If you use this option with the wool programme you
will obtain an extremely delicate wash action
suitable for garments with the wash symbol
.
- ECONOMY: This option is only available with the
following programmes. The temperature is reduced
as shown.
Programme Temperature reduced to
White Cotton 95°C 67°C
Coloured Cotton 60°C 45°C
Synthetic 60°C 40°C
The corresponding temperature light will come on
and the wash time will be slightly longer to
compensate for the temperature reduction.
For use when washing normally soiled laundry, in
order to save energy.
Important: the PREWASH, QUICK WASH and
ECONOMY options cannot be selected together:
one automatically disables the others.
