This prevents any creasing which may take place if the
clothes are left damp in the drum. When it is convenient
for you to empty the machine, simply press this button
again so that the machine can proceed to drain and
spin, or turn the dial to the drain programme "P".
If this button is not activated, the washing programmes
will end with a short spin.
Do not press this button for woollens: wool items should
be gently spun.
5 Quick wash button
By depressing this button on programmes A, B, C and F
the wash time will be reduced by approx. 20 mins.
This is suitable only for garments which are lightly soiled.
6 Super Economy button
By depressing this button prior to selecting wash pro-
gramme A you will obtain a reduction of the wash tem-
perature from 95°C to 60°C.
The duration of the programme will not alter. This will
ensure a substantial saving in electricity consumption.
It is advisable to use Super Economy when washing
normally soiled fabrics.
7 On/Off button
By depressing this button the machine starts operating.
When depressing it again, the machine stops. The push
button is provided with a child-proof safety lock. Move
the small slider placed in the middle of the button down-
wards to lock the button in the «off» position.
8 Mains-on light
This light illuminates when the machine starts working
and goes out when the ON/OFF button is released.
9 Programme selector dial
With the programme selector dial you choose the de-
sired washing programme. Press this dial to pop it out
and then turn it clockwise.
Before setting the dial to any position the machine must
be switched off by depressing the ON/OFF button.
2 Spin speed selector dial
Push to release the button.
The spin speed can be varied as follows:
Cotton and linen - 1200 (max) to 650 (min) rpm
Synthetics, delicates and wool - 650 (max) to
450 (min) rpm.
NOTE: The spin speeds marked on the dial refer to spin
speeds for cotton and linen programmes. To select 650
rpm spin on synthetic, delicate and wool cycles, the spin
speed selector dial should be positioned to the 1200
(max) setting, to select 450 rpm the dial should be posi-
tioned to the 650 (min) setting.
3 Heavy soil button
By pressing the heavy soil button, the machine will take
in cold water only on programmes with a water tempera-
ture of 50°-60°-95°C (programmes A-B-F).
These would normally be hot and cold.
The water is then gradually heated to the required tem-
perature. The effect is to improve the overall wash
performance, particularly on biological stains such as
egg, blood and grass stains, and heavily soiled fabrics,
since the longer «cool-soak» phase as the water heats
up provides the right conditions for the powder and the
water temperature to interact, and achieve the best pos-
sible results.
4 Rinse hold button
Press this button to make the machine stop with water in
the drum after the synthetic or delicate wash cycles.
