function is selected when the button is pressed in. Carefully read the relevant

end of the cycle press again to reset the button and switch off the appliance.

Power on                  Power off

Door Locked Indicator Light

A special safety device prevents the door from being opened immediately
after the end of the cycle. A ‘Door locked’ indicator light is illuminated when
the door is fully closed. Wait for 2 minutes after the wash cycle has finished
and the door locked neon has gone off before opening the door. As a safety
measure check that there is no water evident in the drum.

Extra Rinse

This option adds more water at the rinsing stage. This can help to avoid skin
irritation from detergent residues for people with particularly sensitive skin.
Selecting the Extra Rinse button is also recommended when washing heavily
soiled fabrics, requiring the use of a lot of detergent, or when the wash load
contains items made of towelling whose fabrics have a greater tendency to retain
detergent.

Creaseguard

This option is available on synthetics, delicates and woollens. When this option is
selected for delicates and woollens programmes the machine will stop and the
load will be held within the water in the drum. This reduces the creasing. To
continue with the wash cycle the Creaseguard button must be pressed and the
programme will re-start. With the Creaseguard option selected in the synthetics
cycles, the programmes are completed by a short, very low speed spin. The
laundry may be left in the drum in this condition without the risk of excessive
creasing.

Express Wash

This option can be utilised on cottons and synthetics. By selecting the Express
Wash option, the wash time may be reduced by up to 50 minutes, depending on
the selected programme, temperature and load, without giving up a good wash
quality.
