Running a wash cycle

1. 

SWITCH THE MACHINE ON.

 Press the   button; 

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 and wash cycles on the following page.

3. 

MEASURE OUT THE DETERGENT.

 Pull out 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.

 Use the WASH CYCLE 

SELECTOR knob to select the desired wash cycle. A 
temperature and spin speed is set for each wash cycle; 
these values may be adjusted. The duration of the cycle 
will appear on the display.

6. 

CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE. 

Use the relevant 

buttons:

 

 

 

 

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 
(the “

OFF

” setting). If these buttons are pressed again, 

the maximum values are restored. 

!

 

Exception: if the 3 programme is selected, the 

temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C.

 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. When this option has been 
activated, the 

 symbol lights up on the display. To 

remove the delayed start setting, press the button until 
the text “

OFF

” appears on the display.

Set the desired wash intensity.

Option 

 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 until 

the “

Intensive

” 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 until the “

Delicate

” 

level is reached. The cycle will reduce drum rotation 
to ensure washing results that are perfect for delicate 
garments. 

Modify the cycle settings.

•  Press the button to enable the option; the indicator 

light corresponding to the button will switch on.

•  Press the button again to disable the option; the 

indicator light will switch off.

!

 If the selected option is not compatible with the set 

wash cycle, the indicator light will flash and the option 
will not be activated.

!

 The options may affect the recommended load value 

and/or the duration of the cycle.

7. 

START THE WASH CYCLE.

 Press the START/

PAUSE button. The corresponding indicator light will 
turn green, remaining lit in a fixed manner, and the door 
will be locked (the DOOR LOCKED 

 symbol will 

be lit). 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 amber 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. 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

” on the display; when the 

DOOR LOCKED 

 symbol switches off the door may 

be opened. Open the door, 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.

Load balancing system

Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations 
before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform 
manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which 
is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed. If, 
after several attempts, the load is not balanced correctly, 
the machine spins at a reduced spin speed. If the load is 
excessively unbalanced, the washing machine performs 
the distribution process instead of spinning. To encourage 
improved load distribution and balance, we recommend 
small and large garments are mixed in the load.
