The tables in the washing section describe the various programmes and illustrate
the number or symbol to select for them.

Note: this model is fitted with an electronic “sensor” device that
checks the load is balanced correctly. If the load is slightly
unbalanced the machine will re-balance it automatically to then
carry out the normal spin.
If, after several attempts, balance is not restored a reduced spin
speed will be used.
If loads are seriously unbalanced the spin stage will be cancelled.
This helps limit vibration, reduce noise and improve the washing
machine’s reliability and life.
Note: do not press the on/off button before selecting the
programme. Never turn the knob anti-clockwise.
Can be turned in either direction
PROGRAMME Selector
When the option is selected for delicate programmes, the machine stops in the final rinse
stage and the load will be held within the water in the drum, thus reduces creasing and
enabling easier ironing. Press the “CARESSE” button to continue with the programme. The
machine will the pump out the remaining water and the programme will conclude with a low
speed spin for approximately 15 seconds. Finally, the programme carries out a brief
tumbling action to “loosen” the items in the load.
Energy Saver Dial
The washing machine is equipped with an Energy Saver knob to set the temperature you
require. Bigger energy savings can be achieved by using the lower temperature settings
around the dial between and 40°C (dotted line). By selecting the position, the wash
temperature is limited to the water inlet temperature thus reducing energy consumption
further. We recommend that the temperature shown on wash care garments should never
be exceeded. The most suitable temperature and cycle for each type of fabric is shown in
the programme guide table.
In the case where the temperature has been accidentally set higher than those within each
programme (see programme guide table), the machine will lower the temperature
automatically to protect the fabrics.
