Running a wash cycle
1. SWITCH THE MACHINE ON. Press the button; the
START/PAUSE indicator light will flash slowly in a green
colour.
2. LOAD THE LAUNDRY. Open the porthole door. Load
the laundry, making sure you do not exceed the maximum
load value indicated in the table of programmes on the
following page.
3. MEASURE OUT THE DETERGENT. Pull out the
detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into
the relevant compartments as described in “Detergents
and laundry”.
4. CLOSE THE DOOR.
5. SELECT THE WASH CYCLE. Set the WASH CYCLE
knob to the desired programme; a temperature and spin
speed is set for each wash cycle; these may be adjusted.
The duration of the cycle will appear on the display.
6. CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE. Use the relevant
buttons:
Modifying the temperature and/or spin
speed. The machine automatically displays the maximum
temperature and spin speed values set for the selected
cycle, or the most recently-used settings if they are
compatible with the selected cycle. The temperature can
be decreased by pressing the button, until the cold
wash “OFF” setting is reached. The spin speed may be
progressively reduced by pressing the button, until it is
completely excluded (the “OFF” setting). If these buttons
are pressed again, the maximum values are restored.
Setting a delayed start.
To set a delayed start for the selected programme, press
the corresponding button repeatedly until the required
delay period has been reached. When this option is
enabled, the symbol lights up on the display. To remove
the delayed start option press the button until the text
“OFF” appears on the display.
Modifying the cycle settings.
• Press the button to enable the option; the indicator light
corresponding to the button will switch on.
• Press the button again to disable the option; the
indicator light will switch off.
! If the selected option is not compatible with the
programmed wash cycle, the indicator light will flash and
the option will not be activated.
! If the selected option is not compatible with another
option which has been selected previously, the indicator
light corresponding to the first option selected will flash
and only the second option will be activated; the indicator
light corresponding to the enabled option will remain lit.
! The options may affect the recommended load value
and/or the duration of the cycle.
7. START THE PROGRAMME. Press the START/PAUSE
button. The corresponding indicator light will become
green, remaining lit in a fixed manner, and the door will
be locked (the DOOR LOCKED symbol will be on). To
change a wash cycle while it is in progress, pause the
washing machine using the START/PAUSE button (the
START/PAUSE indicator light will flash slowly in an orange
colour); then select the desired cycle and press the START/
PAUSE button again.
To open the door while a cycle is in progress, press the
START/PAUSE button; if the DOOR LOCKED symbol is
switched off the door may be opened. Press the START/
PAUSE button again to restart the wash cycle from the
point at which it was interrupted.
8. THE END OF THE WASH CYCLE. This will be indicated
by the text “END” on the display; when the DOOR LOCKED
symbol switches off the door may be opened. Open the
door, unload the laundry and switch off the machine.
! If you wish to cancel a cycle which has already begun, press
and hold the button. The cycle will be stopped and the
machine will switch off.
