Running a wash cycle
1. SWITCH THE MACHINE ON. Press the
button; the text WELCOME will appear on the
display and 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. Pour the
detergent into the relevant compartments as
described in "Detergents and laundry".
4. CLOSE THE DOOR.
5. SELECT THE WASH CYCLE. Press one of the
WASH CYCLE SELECTOR buttons to select the
required wash cycle; the name of the wash cycle
will appear on the display. 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 function press
the button until the text "OFF" appears on the
display.
Modifying the cycle settings.
• Press the button to enable the function; the
indicator light corresponding to the button will
switch on.
• Press the button again to disable the function;
the indicator light will switch off.
! If the selected function is not compatible with the
programmed wash cycle, the indicator light will
flash and the function will not be activated.
! If the selected function is not compatible with
another function which has been selected
previously, the indicator light corresponding to the
first function selected will flash and only the second
function will be activated; the indicator light
corresponding to the enabled function will remain lit.
! The functions 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). During the wash cycle, the
name of the phase in progress will appear on the
display. 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 OF CYCLE" 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.
Load balancing system
Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations
and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum
rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater
than the washing rotation speed. If, after several at-
tempts, the load is not balanced correctly, the machine
spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is excessively
unbalanced, the washing machine performs the distri-
bution process instead of spinning. To encourage im-
proved load distribution and balance, we recommend
small and large garments are mixed in the load.
