programme and temperature.

programme (in hours and minutes), and the “Start 
(Pause)”
 indication lamp blinks.

Push the button(s) of any option(s) desired - the respective 
indication lights up.
When the combination of programme and additional 
option(s) is not possible, the indication lights switch off 
automatically. Unsuitable combinations of options are 
deselected automatically.
“Clean+” button
• Choose this option if you use an in-wash additive for 

stain removal (powder, for example “Vanish”) - it will 
optimize the additive’s efficiency to get better wash 
performance and stain removal.

• Selectable for programmes “Cotton” and “Synthetics”; choose 

temperature of 30 or 40°C and use with maximum load.

• Add an appropriate amount of in-wash additive for stain 

removal (powder) to the main wash chamber, together 
with your detergent (only use powder detergent with this 
option). Respect the manufacturer’s dosing instructions.

• Prolongs the programme by approx. 10 to 15 minutes.

• Appropriate for use of stain removers and bleaches on 

oxygen basis. Chlorine or perborate bleaches must 

not be used!

“Prewash” button

• Only for heavily soiled loads (for example sand, 

granular dirt) sensible. Increases the cycle time by 

approximately 15 min.

•  Do not use liquid detergent for the main wash when 

activating the “Prewash” option.

“Easy ironing” button

• Reduces creasing by an increased water quantity and a 

very gentle spin.

“Intensive rinse” button

• More water is added and rinse cycle is prolonged.

• This option is particularly suitable for areas with very soft 

water, washing baby linen and helps people with allergies.

“Rinse hold” button

• The laundry remains in the last rinse water without 

progressing to the final spin cycle to avoid creasing and 

prevent colours from changing.

• It is particularly useful if you want to postpone spinning 

to a later time, or if you want to drain only.

•  If you select “Rinse hold” do not leave the laundry 

items to soak for too long.

Note: The programme stops to “Rinse hold” at the 

time the “Rinse hold” light in the programme sequence 

indication is on. The indication lamp next to the “Start 

(Pause)” button blinks.

Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in compliance with Standard IEC/EN 60 456. Consumption data in the home may vary 
with respect to the values in the table in relation to the water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of wash.

*

The remaining time indicator can deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the household conditions applicable at that time.

**

To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle, before the pump drains the water out.
