Your new washing machine

This new washing machine, which is fitted with the Direct Spray system, patented Electrolux, meets all modern
needs for effective treatment of laundry with low water, energy and detergent consumption.

Further savings are achieved by washing small loads of laundry, since water and electricity consumption is
proportional to the quantity and type of laundry being washed.

The possibility

of selecting the temperature, spin speed and all the options offered by this washing machine

gives you truly “customised” washing.

• 

The DELAY START

option allows you to delay starting of the wash programme to any time of day, so

allowing you for instance to make use of overnight economy electricity tariffs.

The programme progress display

shows the programme steps selected  and the programme phase which

is running.

The special wool programme

with its new delicate wash system treats your woollens with extreme care.

The balance control device

ensures the machine is stable during the spin.

Detergent dispenser drawer

The detergent dispenser is divided into three
compartments (fig.). The table of Washing
Programmes shows which compartment to use.

Compartment

: this compartment is only used for

washing powder when a programme has Prewash.

Compartment 

: this compartment is used for

washing powder or liquid detergent on all
programmes.

Compartment 

: this compartment is used for

fabric conditioner and  starching agent.

Always add laundry detergents before switching the
machine on and keep the dispenser clean and dry,
so that the detergent can be efficiently dispensed
from the unit.
