PERSONALISATION
ACOUSTIC SIGNALS

device, which sounds in the following ca-
ses:
• at the end of the cycle
• if there is a fault.
By pressing the
5 and 6 buttons simultane-
ously for about 6 seconds , the acoustic
signal is deactivated (except if there is a
fault). By pressing these 2 buttons again,
the acoustic signal is reactivated.
CHILD SAFETY LOCK
This device permits you to leave the appli-
ance unattended and not to worry that chil-
dren might be injured by or cause damage
to the appliance. This function remains ena-
bled also when the washing machine is not

tion:
1. Before pressing button

possible to start the machine.
2. After pressing button 8 : it will be im-
possible to change any other pro-
gramme or option.
To enable or disable this option press si-
multaneously for about 6 seconds buttons
6 and 7 until on the display, the icon ap-
pears or disappears.
DAILY USE
Load the laundry
Open the door by carefully pulling the door
handle outwards. Place the laundry in the
drum, one item at a time, shaking them out
as much as possible. Close the door.
Make sure that no laundry stays between
the seal and the door. There is a risk of wa-
ter leakage or damage to the laundry.
Measure out the detergent and the fab-
ric softener
Pull out the dispenser drawer until it stops.
Measure out the amount of detergent re-
quired, pour it into the main wash compart-
ment
or in the appropriate compartment
if the selected programme/option it requires
(see more details in «Detergent dispenser
drawer»).
If required, pour fabric softener into the
compartment marked
(the amount used
must not exceed the «MAX» mark in the
drawer). Close the drawer gently.
