Running a wash cycle
1. SWITCH THE MACHINE ON. Press the button;
the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash slowly in a
green colour.
2. LOAD THE LAUNDRY. Open the porthole door.
Load the laundry, making sure you do not exceed
the maximum load value indicated in the table of
programmes and wash cycles on the following page.
3. MEASURE OUT THE DETERGENT. Pull out the
detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into
the relevant compartments as described in “Detergents
and laundry”.
4. CLOSE THE DOOR.
5. SELECT THE WASH CYCLE. Use the WASH CYCLE
SELECTOR knob to select the desired wash cycle. A
temperature and spin speed is set for each wash cycle;
these values may be adjusted. The duration of the cycle
will appear on the display.
6. CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE. Use the relevant
buttons:
Modify the temperature and/or spin speed.
The machine automatically displays the maximum
temperature and spin speed values set for the selected
cycle, or the most recently-used settings if they are
compatible with the selected cycle. The temperature
can be decreased by pressing the button, until
the cold wash “OFF” setting is reached. The spin
speed may be progressively reduced by pressing
the button, until it is completely excluded (the
“OFF” setting). If these buttons are pressed again, the
maximum values are restored.
! Exception: if the 3 programme is selected, the
temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C.
Setting a delayed start.
To set a delayed start for the selected cycle, press the
corresponding button repeatedly until the required delay
period has been reached. When this option has been
activated, the symbol lights up on the display. To
remove the delayed start setting, press the button until
the text “OFF” appears on the display.
Set the desired wash intensity (SMART option).
Performance +: a 30-minute intermediate phase is
added in which soaking and mechanical-action phases
alternate at constant temperature. During this phase
the dirt softening and removal action is boosted, thus
increasing washing performance up to 15%. (Tests
performed on main cotton and synthetics cycles at
external certifying lab.)
Auto +: the machine will recognise the laundry
load from the very first minutes of washing and will
constantly monitor the proper water level needed in the
different phases (rinsing included). As a consequence
the duration of the selected cycle will change based
on these parameters and on selected settings, thus
ensuring the desired washing performance.
Speed +: if you select this option, the wash cycle
duration will be reduced by up to 50% depending on
the selected cycle, thereby guaranteeing simultaneous
water and energy saving. Use this cycle for lightly soiled
garments.
Modify the cycle settings.
• Press the button to enable the option; the indicator
light corresponding to the button will switch on.
• Press the button again to disable the option; the
indicator light will switch off.
! If the selected option is not compatible with the set
wash cycle, the indicator light will flash and the option
will not be activated.
! If the selected option is not compatible with a previously
selected one, the indicator light corresponding to the first
function selected will flash and only the second option will
be activated; the indicator light for the option which has
been activated will be illuminated.
! The options may affect the recommended load value
and/or the duration of the cycle.
7. START THE WASH CYCLE. Press the START/
PAUSE button. The corresponding indicator light will
turn green, remaining lit in a fixed manner, and the
door will be locked (the DOOR LOCKED symbol will
be lit). To change a wash cycle while it is in progress,
pause the washing machine using the START/PAUSE
button (the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash
slowly in an amber colour); then select the desired cycle
and press the START/PAUSE button again.
To open the door while a cycle is in progress, press
the START/PAUSE button; if the DOOR LOCKED
symbol is switched off the door may be opened. Press
the START/PAUSE button again to restart the wash
cycle from the point at which it was interrupted.
8. THE END OF THE WASH CYCLE. This will be
indicated by the text “END” on the display; when the
DOOR LOCKED symbol switches off the door may
be opened. Open the door, unload the laundry and
switch off the machine.
! If you wish to cancel a cycle which has already begun,
press and hold the button. The cycle will be stopped
and the machine will switch off.
