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

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.

It can be used with or without bleach. If you desire

bleaching, insert the extra tray compartment (4) into

compartment 1. When pouring in the bleach, be careful

not to exceed the “max” level marked on the central

pivot (see figure pag. 10).

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.
