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

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.

 programme is selected, the 

temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C.

 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.

light corresponding to the button will switch on.

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.
