WARNING:
before you use the Washer-dryer for the first time,
run a wash cycle with detergent and no laundry, using the 90°
cottons cycle without pre-wash.
1.
SWITCH THE MACHINE ON.
Press the button. All
the indicator lights will illuminate for 1 second and the text
AQUALTIS will appear on the display; the indicator light
corresponding to the button will then remain lit in a constant
manner and the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash.
2.
SELECT THE PROGRAMME.
Turn the PROGRAMME
KNOB left or right, until the required programme has been
selected; the name of the programme will appear on the
display. A temperature and spin speed is set for each
programme; these may be adjusted. The cycle duration will
also appear on the display.
3.
LOAD THE LAUNDRY
. Open the porthole door. Load the
laundry, making sure you do not exceed the maximum load value
indicated in the
table of wash cycles on the following page
.
4.
MEASURE OUT THE DETERGENT.
Pull out the detergent
dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into the relevant
compartments as described in
“Description of the machine”.
5.
CLOSE THE PORTHOLE DOOR.
6.
CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE.
Use the relevant
buttons on the control panel:
Modify the temperature and/or spin speed.
The machine automatically displays the maximum temperature
and spin speed values set for the selected cycle, or the most
recently-used settings if they are compatible with the selected
cycle. The temperature can be decreased by pressing the
button, until the cold wash “OFF” setting is reached. The
spin speed may be progressively reduced by pressing the
button, until it is completely excluded “OFF”. If these buttons
are pressed again, the maximum values are restored.
!
Exception: if the programme is selected, the
temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C.
Setting the drying cycle.
The first time the button
is pressed, the machine will
automatically select the maximum drying cycle which is
compatible with the selected wash cycle. Subsequent presses
will decrease the drying level and then the drying time, until
the cycle is excluded completely (“
OFF
”). If these buttons are
pressed again, the maximum values are restored.
Drying may be set as follows:
A
- Based on a set time period: between
20
and
180
minutes.
B
- Based on the desired laundry dryness level:
Iron:
suitable for clothes which will need ironing afterwards.
the remaining dampness softens creases, making them
easier to remove.
Hanger:
ideal for clothes which do not need to be dried fully.
Cupboard:
suitable for laundry which can be put back in a
cupboard without being ironed.
Extra:
suitable for garments which need to be dried
completely, such as sponges and bathrobes.
If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater
than the maximum stated load, perform the wash cycle,
and when the cycle is complete, divide the garments into
groups and put some of them back in the drum. At this
point, follow the instructions provided for a “
Drying only
”
cycle. Repeat this procedure for the remainder of the load.
A cooling-down period is always added to the end of each
drying cycle.
Drying only
Use the cycle selector knob to select a drying cycle ( - - )
in accordance with the type of fabric. The desired drying level or
time may also be set using the DRYING button
.
Setting a delayed start.
To set a delayed start for the selected cycle, press the
corresponding button repeatedly until the required delay period has
been reached. During the setting procedure, the delay period and
the text “
Starts in
:” will be displayed, along with the flashing
symbol. After the delayed start has been set, the
symbol
will remain fixed on the display, which will also indicate the
duration of the selected cycle with the text “

:” and the
cycle duration. Press the DELAYED START button just once to
display the delay time set previously. After the countdown has
begun, the display will show the text “
Starts in

period. Once the set delay time has elapsed, the machine will
begin its cycle and the display will show “

wash cycle, this incompatibility will be signalled by the
flashing of the indicator light and a sound alert
(3 beeps); the option will not be activated.
!
If the selected option is not compatible with another
option that has been selected previously, the indicator light
corresponding to the first option selected will flash and
only the second option will be activated; the indicator light
corresponding to the button will remain lit in a constant manner.

The options may affect the recommended load value and/
or the duration of the cycle.
