• DETAILS OF THE PROGRAMMES

• OptiA 45 min

This 40°C cycle washes a normal 3 kg load of cotton and mixed fabrics in

45 minutes, ensuring perfect washing results and maximum energy saving.

• DETAILS OF THE OPTIONS

• Anti-creasing

This option washes your laundry more gently, but with an identicalwashing

performance. The spin speed is slower so that your laundrycreases less.

• Extra rinse

«Especially for sensitive and allergic skin»: adds an extra rinse to the

washing cycle.

• Reducing the time

Allows to reduce the average cycle time by 20%.

• Drip Dry

(spin speed «100»)

This function, for very delicate linen, enables you to remove spinning and to

pass directly to the draining of the washing machine.

• Full drum stop

This function enables you to remove the washing from your machine before

the spin phase or to delay this phase with your washing remaining in water

to prevent creasing.

NB: When the machine is stopped with the tub full of water, the «rinse»

cycle progress light flashes.

Then:

— If you want to drain after spinning, use the selector to choose a

suitable spin speed for your type of washing.

The programme will end automatically.

— If you just want to drain, turn the selector to «drip dry» (position

«100»).

• Delayed start

You can delay the start of your programme by 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 or 19 hours

so that you can benefit from cheap rate electricity or to have the cycle finish

at a desired time.

To do this, use the selector to choose the time you want the cycle to start

and press «start/pause» .

NB:

- Even if you forget to press the «start/pause» button after selecting

this option, your choice will still be accepted after a few seconds.

- The three cycle progress lights (lava., aclarado and fin.) flash in succession

from left to right during the whole of the waiting period before the cycle

effectively starts.

• MODIFYING A WASHING PROGRAMME

• During programming:

Anything can be changed before the «start/pause» button is pressed.

• After the cycle has started:

You can change the type of textile (for example, switch from “COTTON” to

“SYNTHETICS”, etc.). In this case, check that the options you previously

selected are still there.

You must confirm your new selection by pressing the «start/pause» button

.

The machine may then possibly drain off some of its water.

• Throughout the cycle:

Depending on your model, the following changes are possible without

pressing the «start/pause» button .

— You can change the temperature for the same type of textile.

NB: If the temperature achieved by the washing cycle is higher than your

new selection, heating the water stops immediately and the cycle continues.

— You can alter the spin speed throughout the cycle.

— You can select «drip dry» («100») and «full drum stop» throughout the

washing phase.

— You can activate the «extra rinse» option until rinsing starts (until the

«rinse» cycle progress light illuminates).

— You can deactivate all the options throughout the cycle provided that their

action has not already finished.

• During delayed start

— Any kind of programme modification is accepted during a delayed start’s

waiting period.

— You can alter the length of a delayed start throughout the waiting period

before the cycle effectively starts.

NB:

- During this period, selecting a new time cancels out the previous selection.

The new period selected is accepted based on the last selection made.

- If you want to cancel the delayed start completely during this period, set

the selector to the «100» position and then briefly press the «start/

pause» button .

— You can only activate the «prewash» and «anti-creasing» options during

a delayed start’s waiting period.

• When the cycle is over:

When the «end» light is permanently lit, you can programme a new cycle

without having to reset the selector to the position «

».

For this, all you have to do is turn one of the selectors or press one of the

buttons.

The «wash» light starts to flash.

The machine is then ready to be reprogrammed.

• AUTOMATIC SAFETY SYSTEMS

• Lid opening safety system:

As soon as washing commences, the lid on your machine is locked.

When the cycle is finished or when the machine has stopped with the drum

full of water, the lid unlocks.

If you wish to open the lid during the cycle, press button briefly and

wait 1-2 minutes for the safety system to unlock the lid.

Important:

Depending on when you wish to open the lid during the cycle,

this time delay may be a little longer because a cooling down period

may also have to be included.

In fact, to avoid your being severely burnt, the lid safety system will

not open during the cycle unless the temperature inside the machine

is below a certain threshold.

• Water safety system:

During operation, constant control of the water prevents any overflows.

• Spin safety system:

Your washing machine is fitted with a safety system that restricts the spin

when poor load distribution is detected.

In this case, your washing may be insufficiently spun. Redistribute your

washing in the drum and programme a new spin.

• Anti-foam system:

You machine can detect when too much foam is being produced during

spinning.

At such times, spinning stops and the machine drains.

The cycle then restarts, adapting the spin rates and possibly adding an

extra rinse.
