Display
The following functions are shown in the
display:
– programme duration (Time left dis-
play)
– delay start
– programmable functions
Programme duration
If a programme without delay start has
been selected, the maximum duration
(wash time) for that programme will ap-
pear in the display in hours and min-
utes after the start of the programme.
In the:
– COTTONS
– MINIMUM IRON
programmes, the washing machine
measures the amount of water being
taken up by the laundry and uses
this to calculate the load during the
first 10 minutes. If the machine rec-
ognises a smaller load it will shorten
the programme time.
Programme Max. time reduction
Normal Rapid
COTTONS 51 mins 12 mins
MINIMUM IRON 12 mins 2 mins
Soak
If a soak period has been selected, this
is added to the programme duration in
the display to give a a total running
time.
Delay start
The delay start time selected will ap-
pear in the display.
After the machine has started, the de-
lay start time counts down. If the delay
start time is more than 10 hours, it will
count down by the hour. If it is less than
9 hours and 59 minutes it will count
down minute by minute.
Once the delay start period has fin-
ished, the programme begins and the
actual programme duration shows in
the display.
Programmable functions
The programmable functions can be
used to tailor washing programmes to
suit your individual requirements. The
function selected is displayed when in
programming mode.
