The Control Panel
Turning the Machine On
Turning the Programme Selector to your chosen programme will turn the machine on.
The Programme Selector must be returned to the OFF position between each wash
cycle in order to reset the controls.
Start Pause Button
START
After selecting the programme and the required options press the Start Pause button
once to start the wash cycle. There will be a short time delay to the start of the
programme while the machine sets the wash parameters for the selected programme
and options. The Door Locked and KG Mode indicator lights will also illuminate a few
seconds after pressing the Start Pause button.
PAUSE
The programme may be paused at any time during the wash cycle by holding down
the Start Pause button for about two seconds. The door locked indicator light will
remain illuminated for approximately 2 minutes. The door can be opened when this
indicator goes out. To restart the programme, press the Start Pause button once again.
Cancelling and Changing the Programme
To cancel the programme the Programme Selector should be rotated to the OFF
position. Select a new programme and start as detailed above.
Digital Display
The easy-to-use Digital Display gives you total control of your wash cycle, whether it is
adjusting the wash length using our Wash Time Selector, delaying the start of your
wash, or adjusting the temperature and spin speed of your selected programme. The
simplicity of the Digital Display understates the advanced technology, which clearly
displays all the wash cycle information, putting you in control.
Wash Temperature
When a programme is selected the relevant indicator will light up to show the
recommended wash temperature. You can select a different temperature by pressing
the Temperature button. For example: The Cottons programme will default to 40°C.
With this control the temperature can be reduced to 30°C to reduce energy
consumption or increased to 60°C for a more intensive wash.
Today, most detergents have been improved to wash efficiently at lower temperatures,
therefore we have set the default temperature settings of each programme to a lower
level, saving electricity and reducing the carbon footprint of your machine.
Please refer to the Programme Guide for the maximum temperature to which each
programme can be set.
Door Locked indicator
The Door Locked indicator light is illuminated when the door is fully closed and the machine
is ON.
When Start Pause is pressed on the machine with the door closed the indicator will flash
momentarily and then illuminate. If the door is not closed the indicator will continue to flash.
A special safety device prevents the door from being opened immediately after the end of
the cycle. Wait for 2 minutes after the wash cycle has finished and the door locked light has
gone out before opening the door. As a safety measure, check that there is no water evident
in the drum. At the end of the cycle turn the programme selector to OFF.
If the programme is paused, the door locked indicator will go out after 2 minutes and the
door can be opened. Check there is no water evident in the drum before opening the door.
