How to open and to close the drum
A) Opening (Fig. 1):
Lift the external lid and open it completely.
B) Opening the drum (Soft opening):
With one finger, push the button indicated in fig. 2 and 
the drum will open delicately.
C) Loading the washing machine (Fig. 3).
D) Shutting (Fig. 4):
- close the drum fully by first shutting the front door 
followed by the rear one;
- then ensure the hooks on the front door are perfectly 
housed within the seat of the rear door;
- after the hooks have clicked into position, press both 
doors lightly downwards to make sure they do not 
come loose;
- finally shut the external lid.
E) Drum End Stop (Fig. 2):
Once the wash cycle has been completed, the drum will 
position itself with doors facing upward for ease pf opening.
The display is useful when programming the machine and 
provides a great deal of information.
The two upper strings A and B provide details of the wash 
cycle selected, the wash cycle phase in progress and all 
information relating to the progress status of the wash cycle.
String C shows the time remaining until the end of the wash 
cycle in progress and, if a DELAYED START has been set, 
the time remaining until the start of the selected wash cycle.
String D shows the maximum spin speed value (this depen-
ds on the selected wash cycle); if the wash cycle does not 
include a spin cycle, the string remains unused.
String E shows the maximum temperature value which may 
be selected (this depends on the wash cycle used); if the 
temperature of the wash cycle cannot be modified, the string 
remains unused.
Indicator lights F correspond to the functions and light up when 
the selected function is compatible with the set wash cycle.
Door locked symbol
If the symbol is lit, this indicates that the washing ma-
chine door is blocked to prevent it from being opened 
accidentally. To prevent any damage from occurring, 
wait for the symbol to switch itself off before opening 
the appliance door (it will take about three minutes). 
N.B.: if the DELAYED START function has been activated, 
the door cannot be opened; pauses the machine by pressing 
the START/PAUSE button if you wish to open it.
! The first time the machine is switched on, you will be asked 
to select the language and the display will automatically show 
the language selection menu.
To select the desired language press the X and Y buttons; to 
confirm the selection press the Z button. If you wish to change 
the selected language, simultaneously press and hold all the 
three buttons marked with an L in the figure, until you hear a 
beep. Switch the machine on again; the language selection 
menu will be displayed.
