The Control Panel
6 Super Rinse button
By depressing this button on programmes for cottons and
linens the machine will perform an extra rinse (4 instead
of 3).
This is recommended for people who are allergic to
detergents and in areas where the water is very soft.
7 Rinse Hold button
Press this button to make the machine stop with water in
the drum after the cotton, synthetic or delicate wash
cycles.
This prevents any creasing which may occur if the clothes
are left damp in the drum. When it is convenient for you
to empty the machine, simply press this button again so
that the machine can proceed to drain and spin, or select
the drain programme “R”.
If this button is not activated, the washing programmes
will end with a spin.
The RINSE HOLD option must not be depressed
when using NON-STOP operation (automatic washing
& drying).
8 ON/OFF button
By depressing this button the machine starts operating.
When depressing it again, the machine stops.
The push button is provided with a child-proof safety
lock. Move the small slider placed in the middle of the
button downwards to lock the button in the «off» position.
9 Mains-on light
This light will illuminate when the machine starts working
and goes out when the ON/OFF button is depressed again
to switch the machine off.

With the programme selector dial you choose the
desired washing and drying programme.

3 Drying time selector dial
Graduated up to 120 mins for cottons and synthetics, this
dial allows you to select the desired drying time according
to the type and quantity of laundry and the required degree
of dryness:

- Yellow sector for synthetics
Turn the dial clockwise only.
Depress the dial to pop it out.
Cooling phase
To allow the laundry to cool down, a cooling phase starts
automatically 10 minutes before the end of drying and this
phase must in no circumstances be reduced or interrupted.
4 Spin speed reduction button
By depressing this button the spin speed is reduced as
follows:
- cotton & linen: (prog. A, B, C, D and F) from 1200
rpm to 650 rpm;
- synthetics and wool : (prog. H, J, K and M) from 850
rpm to 650 rpm.
- delicates: (prog. N, P and Q) from 650 rpm to 450
rpm.
Important!
In order to save energy and to avoid too long drying times
we suggest not to reduce the spin speed when you wash
and dry automatically.
5 Quick wash button
By depressing this button on programmes A, B, C, D and
H the wash time is reduced.
This is suitable only for garments which are lightly soiled.
