Indicator lights
The indicator lights provide important information.
This is what they can tell you:
Delayed start
If the DELAY TIMER function has been activated ( see “Per-
sonalisation” ), after the wash cycle has been started the
indicator light corresponding to the selected delay period
will begin to flash:
As time passes, the remaining delay will be displayed and
the corresponding indicator light will flash:
Once the set delay has elapsed, the flashing indicator light
will switch off and the selected wash cycle will begin.
Wash cycle phase indicator lights
Once the desired wash cycle has been selected and has
begun, the indicator lights switch on one by one to indicate
which phase of the cycle is currently in progress.
Note: during the “Drain” phase, the indicator light corre-
sponding to the “Spin” cycle phase will illuminate.
Function buttons and corresponding indicator lights
When a function is selected, the corresponding indicator
light will illuminate.
If the selected function is not compatible with the pro-
grammed wash cycle, the corresponding indicator light will
flash and a sound alert (3 beeps); the function will not be
activated.
If a function which is incompatible with another function
selected previously, only the most recent selection will
remain active.
Door locked indicator light
If this indicator light is on, the appliance door is locked to
prevent it from being opened accidentally; to avoid any
damage, wait for the indicator light to switch off before you
open the appliance door.
!
If the START/PAUSE indicator light (orange) flashes
rapidly at the same time as the function indicator light, this
indicates a problem has occurred
(see “Troubleshooting” ).
Starting a wash cycle

the indicator lights relative to the selected programme settings will remain lit and the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash.

8. Start the wash cycle by pressing the START/PAUSE button and the corresponding indicator light will remain lit in a fixed
manner, in green.
To cancel the set wash cycle, pause the machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button and select a new cycle.
9. At the end of the wash cycle the indicator light will switch on. The DOOR LOCKED indicator light will switch off, indi-
cating that the door may be opened. Take out your laundry and leave the appliance door ajar to make sure the drum dries
completely. Switch the washer-dryer off by pressing the ON/OFF button.
