pressing the button 

8

 .

After a few minutes the pilot light

 goes out

and it is possible to open the door.
If this pilot light remains lit, this means that
the machine is already heating or that the

to force the door!
If you cannot open the door but you need to
open it you have to switch the machine off by
turning the selector dial to 

O

 . After a few mi-

nutes the door can be opened

tion to the water level and tempera-
ture!)

lect the programme and options again and to
press button 

8

 .

The machine stops automatically. Three
blinking 

0.00

 appear on the display and the

pilot light of button

 goes off. Some acoustic

signals sound.
If a programme or an option that ends with
water left in the tub has been selected, the
door remains locked to indicate that the wa-
ter must be emptied out before opening the
door.
Follow the below instructions to empty out
the water:

chine off.
Remove the laundry from the drum and care-
fully check that the drum is empty. If you do
not intend to carry out another wash, close
the water tap. Leave the door open to pre-
vent the formation of mildew and unpleasant
smells.

Stand By

 : If your laundry is not removed

within 10 minutes after the programme is fin-
ished, the back light of the display switches
off and the energy saving system will be en-
abled. Only the pilot light of the button
