12 - Washing Instructions

Washing

Open the door and put the laundry 

1. 

into the drum.

For details about preparing and sorting 

the laundry, see pages 7, 14, and 15.

Caution

Make sure that no laundry gets 

caught in the door when it gets 

closed. Moreover, make sure that 

bulky items fit completely inside of 

the drum.

If these precautions are not followed, 

the appliance might excessively 

vibrate or get damaged.

Close the door and press the On 

2. 

button.

The “Panasonic” logo will be displayed 

in the display for about 2 seconds.

Turn the programme selection dial 

3. 

either way to select the programme.

A wash time will be displayed.

Memory programme

You can design your own programme 

based on the default settings of the Cotton 

programme. Select Memory programme 

and set other settings, then run the 

programme. Later, this preset programme 

can be run by simply accessing Memory 

programme.

Cold Wash programme

This programme detects the amount of 

clothes and water temperature, and then 

selects the best suited wash time and 

water amount to save energy and conserve 

water. 

The less the amount of clothes and the 

higher the water temperature, the shorter 

the wash time and smaller amount of water 

will be used. The ECONAVI mark flashes 

while clothes are checked and lights when 

the ECONAVI function starts working.

Cotton Rinse Plus programme

This programme has a rinse performance 

better than the Cotton programme.
