In this case, for 30 seconds, it is possible

to pause the appliance and remove the

exceeding garments.
Once removed the exceeding garments,

touch the Départ/Pause button to start

the programme again. The ProSense

phase can be repeated up to three times

(see point 1).
Important! If the laundry amount will not

be reduced, the washing programme

starts anyway, despite the overload. In

this case, it will be not possible to

guarantee the best washing results.

About 20 minutes after the

programme start, the

programme duration could

be adjusted again depending

on the capacity of water

absorption of the fabrics.

The ProSense detection is

carried out with complete

washing programmes only

(no skipping phase

selected).

12.9 Programme phase

indicators

When the programme starts the indicator

of the running phase flashes and the

other phase indicators are steady on.
E.g. the washing or pre wash phase is

running: 

.

When the phase ends the relevant

indicator stops flashing and is steady on.

The next phase indicator starts flashing.
E.g. the rinse phase is running:

.

During the washing cycle, the appliance

mixes the detergent, the stain removal

for fabric treatment and/or the fabric

softener with water before introducing
them into the drum; the indicator 

MIX

appears and disappears on the display

according to the different programme

phases (the arrows flash alternatively).
If you select the Vapeur Plus the steam

phase indicators come on.

The steam phase is running: 

.

The anti-crease phase is running:

.

12.10 Interrupting a

programme and changing the

options

When the programme is running, you

can change only some options:

1. Touch the Départ/Pause button.

The related indicator flashes.

2. Change the options. The given

information in the display changes

accordingly.

3. Touch the Départ/Pause button

again.

The washing programme continues.

12.11 Cancelling a running

programme

1. Press the Marche/Arrêt button to

cancel the programme and to

deactivate the appliance.

2. Press the Marche/Arrêt button again

to activate the appliance.

Now, you can set a new washing

programme.

If the ProSense phase is

already carried out and the

water filling is already

started, the new programme

starts without repeating the

ProSense phase. The water

and the detergent are not

drained out in order to avoid

waste. The display shows

the maximum duration of the

programme, updating it

about 20 minutes after the

starting of the new

programme.

12.12 Opening the door -

Adding garments

While a programme or the delay start

operates, the appliance door is locked.
