Running a wash cycle
1.
SWITCH THE MACHINE ON.
Press the On/Off
button ; the text POWER ON will appear on the
display and the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash
slowly in a green colour.
2.
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
programmes on the following page.
3.
MEASURE OUT THE DETERGENT.
Open the
detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into
the relevant compartments as described in “Detergents
and laundry”.
4.
CLOSE THE DOOR.
5.
SELECT THE WASH CYCLE.
Press one of the
WASH CYCLE SELECTOR buttons to select the
required wash cycle; the name of the wash cycle will
appear on the display. A temperature and SPIN is
set for each wash cycle; these may be adjusted. The
duration of the cycle will appear on the display.
6.
CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE.
Use the relevant
buttons:
Modifying the temperature and/or Spin.
The machine automatically selects the maximum
temperature and Spin set for the selected wash
cycle; these values cannot therefore be increased.
The temperature can be decreased by pressing the
TEMPERATURE button, until the cold wash “OFF”
setting is reached. The Spin may be progressively
reduced by pressing the SPIN button, until it is
completely excluded (the “OFF” setting). If these buttons
are pressed again, the maximum values are restored.
!
Exception: if the 1 (60°)
(1st press of the button)
programme
is selected, the temperature can be increased up to a
value of 90°C.
!
Exception: if the 2 (40°)
(1st press of the button)
programme
is selected, the temperature can be increased up to a
value of 60°C.
!
Exception: if the 3 (40°) programme is selected, the
temperature can be increased up to a value of 60°C.
Setting a delayed start.
To set a delayed start for the selected programme,
press the corresponding button repeatedly until the
required delay period has been reached. When this
option is enabled, the
symbol lights up on the
display. To remove the delayed start function press the
button until the text “OFF” appears on the display.
Set the desired wash intensity.
Option “Cleaning Action” makes it possible to optimise
washing based on the level of soil in the fabrics and on
desired wash cycle intensity.
Select the wash programme: the cycle will be
automatically set to “
Normal
” as optimised for garments
with an average level of soil (this setting is not applicable to
the “Wool” cycle, which is automatically set to “
Delicate
”).
For heavily-soiled garments press button “Cleaning
Action” until the “
Super Wash
” level is reached. This
level ensures a high-performance wash due to a larger
quantity of water used in the initial phase of the cycle
and due to increased drum rotation. It is useful when
removing the most stubborn stains.
For lightly-soiled garments or a more delicate treatment
of the fabrics, press button “Cleaning Action” until the
“
Delicate
” level is reached. The cycle will reduce the
drum rotation to ensure washing results are perfect for
delicate garments.
Set the rinse type.
Option “Anti Allergy Rinse” makes it possible to select
the desired rinse type for sensitive skin. Press the
button once for the “
Extra Rinse
” level, which makes it
possible to select an additional rinse after the standard
cycle rinse and remove all traces of detergent. Press
the button again for the “
Sensitive Skin
” level, which
makes it possible to select two additional rinses to
the standard cycle rinses; it is recommended for very
sensitive skin. When the button is pressed for the third
time, the “
Anti allergy Rinse
” level is set, thus allowing
the selection of 3 rinses in addition to the standard
cycle’s rinses. The option - started with cycles at a
temperature of 40°C - makes it possible to remove
major allergens such as pollen, cat and dog hair. With
cycles at a temperature higher than 40° a very good
level of antiallergic protection is achieved. Press the
button again to go back to the “
Normal Rinse
” rinse
type. If the current adjustment can be neither set nor
changed, the display will show “
Not allowed
”.
Modifying the cycle settings.
• Press the button to enable the function; the indicator
light corresponding to the button will switch on.
• Press the button again to disable the function; the
indicator light will switch off.
!
If the selected function is not compatible with the
programmed wash cycle, the indicator light will flash
and the function will not be activated.
!
If the selected function is not compatible with
another function which has been selected previously,
the indicator light corresponding to the first function
selected will flash and only the second function will
be activated; the indicator light corresponding to the
enabled function will remain lit.
!
The functions may affect the recommended load value
and/or the duration of the cycle.
7.
START THE PROGRAMME.
Press the START/
PAUSE button. The corresponding indicator light will
become green, remaining lit in a fixed manner, and the
door will be locked (the DOOR LOCKED symbol will be
on). During the wash cycle, the name of the phase in
progress will appear on the display. To change a wash
cycle while it is in progress, pause the washing machine
using the START/PAUSE button (the START/PAUSE
indicator light will flash slowly in an orange colour); then
select the desired cycle and press the START/PAUSE
button again. To open the door while a cycle is in
progress, press the START/PAUSE button; if the DOOR
LOCKED
symbol is switched off the door may
be opened (wait approximately 3 minutes). Press the
START/PAUSE button again to restart the wash cycle
from the point at which it was interrupted.
8.
THE END OF THE WASH CYCLE.
This will be
indicated by the text “END OF CYCLE” on the display;
when the DOOR LOCKED
symbol switches off the
door may be opened. Open the door (wait approximately 3
minutes), unload the laundry and switch off the machine.
!
If you wish to cancel a cycle which has already begun,
press and hold the button. The cycle will be stopped
and the machine will switch off.
