Indicator lights
The indicator lights provide important information.
This is what they can tell you:
Wash cycle phase indicator lights
As the WASH CYCLE knob is rotated, the indicator lights
illuminate, indicating the stages which will be performed by
the machine in accordance with the selected wash cycle.
Once the desired wash cycle has been selected and has be-
gun, the indicator lights switch on one by one to indicate which
phase of the cycle is currently in progress.
Function buttons and corresponding indicator lights
When a function is selected, the corresponding indicator light will
illuminate. If the selected function is not compatible with the pro-
grammed wash cycle, the corresponding indicator light will flash, a
sound signal will be emitted and the function will not be activated.
If a function which is incompatible with another function selected
previously, only the most recent selection will remain active.
