Option modifiers
! Not all options can be used on all programmes - (see Programme Table for option availability).
Time Saver:
Use this option to reduce the time of a wash programme.
Press the timer Saver button, once, before the wash programme is started.
Reduced Creases:
Selecting this option will run the wash programme with a more gentle action and lower spin speed, in addition
to carrying out an additional rinse to ensure your laundry has fewer creases and will require less ironing.
Rinse Hold:
Selecting this option will pause the cycle in the final rinse with the fabric conditioner keeping the laundry
fresh until you are ready to complete the programme. The Rinse Hold light will flash to indicate the cycle is
paused. The machine will stay in this state, tumbling the load occasionally until either the START/CANCEL
button is pressed or the Rinse Hold button is pressed again to continue the cycle.
Mini Load:
Use this option for smaller loads less than the capacity listed for the material and programme type (see
Programme Table). This option reduces water consumption and washing time, saving energy when washing
smaller loads.
Time Delay:
Use this option to delay the programme start by up to 24 hours. The LCD display will show the delay chosen.
Each press of the button increases the Time Delay in increments of 1 hour. If you press the button again
after 24 shows on the display the machine will reset the Time Delay and show ‘OFF’ on the display, pressing
the button after this will start the Time Delay selection from 1 hour.
Once the countdown reaches zero the programme will start.
Variable Temperature:
Use this option to reduce the wash temperature below the maximum for the programme you have chosen.
- Each press of the Temp button will reduce the wash temperature by 5˚C. The new wash temperature
will be shown on the display. If you press again after ‘OFF’ has been displayed, the machine will revert to
the original higher temperature.
Variable Spin Speed:
Use this option to reduce the spin speed below the maximum for the programme you have chosen.
- Each press of the Spin button will reduce the spin speed. The new spin speed will be shown on the
display. If you press again after ‘OFF’ has been displayed, the machine will revert to the original higher
spin speed.
Pre Wash:
Use this option to add a short wash cycle, at 30˚C before the selected wash programme starts. It is used to
loosen heavy soil deposits on laundry.
Press the Pre Wash button once to select this option, press again to cancel.
It is recommended that detergent is also added to the Prewash compartment.
Child Lock:
Select this option to disable all buttons so no programme and option selections can be altered.
Press the Child Lock option button and the option light will illuminate on the LCD display above the button.
Once Child Lock is selected it remains activated even when the machine is switched off. If power is interrupted
at any time pressing any button will reactivate the Child Lock feature. If Child Lock is activated and any
control buttons are pressed the option light will flash: no alterations to the settings will be allowed.
Press and hold the Child Lock option button for 2 seconds to cancel, the option light will go out.
