34 how to run a wash cycle
“Prewash” option
The appliance runs a prewash at 30°C
max. The prewash finishes with a short
spin cycle for cotton or synthetic pro-
grammes, and with an empty cycle for
delicates programmes.
“Rinse plus” option
The washing machine will add one or
more rinses during the cycle.
This option is recommended for people

Press the “Rinse plus” pushbutton .
The option is only active for the selected
programme.
• Permanent :
Hold down the “Prewash” and “De-
lay start” pushbuttons for a few se-
conds. The option is permanently
activated, even if the appliance is swit-
ched off.
To deactivate it, repeat the process.
“Delay start”
This option allows you to delay the start
of a wash programme by 30, 60, 90, 2

sing the “Delay start” pushbutton
again (0’ indicates immediate start).

ceed as follows :

sing the “Start/Pause” pushbutton. After
closing the lid again, press the “Start/
Pause” pushbutton.
