2. the function is enabled when the corresponding indicator light is illuminated.

Stain removal
This option allows for selecting the type of dirt so as to optimally adjust the cycle for removing the stains. The following types
of dirt can be selected:
- Food, for stains caused by foodstuffs and beverages, for example.
- Work, for grease and ink stains, for example.
- Outdoor, for mud and grass stains, for example.
! The wash cycle duration varies according to the type of selected dirt.

Fast Forward
During a wash programme and under certain conditions, pressing this button allows for ending the wash programme after
only 20’ if necessary, by performing a brief rinse cycle followed by a spin cycle at maximum 800 rpm or lower, if reduced
manually during the programme customisation phase. In this case, washing and rinsing performance will be reduced. After
pressing the button, the relative indicator light turns on together with the indicator light of the rinse phase. If the selected
temperature is equal to 40° and/or the button is pressed during the initial phase of the programme, the “Fast Forward” option
lasts longer so that the detergent can dissolve properly and avoid damaging the fabrics. In this case, the rinse phase indica-
tor light flashes while the wash indicator light remains fixed until the necessary activation conditions are fulfilled. If less than
20’ remain of the wash programme, the option will be disabled.
! It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 2-4-5-6-13-14- - .
Easy iron
By selecting this function, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases. At the end
of the cycle the washing machine will perform slow rotations of the drum, while the EASY IRON and START/PAUSE indicator
lights will flash and the END led will remain lit in a fixed manner. To end the cycle, press the START/PAUSE button or the
EASY IRON button.
