11.How to change a programme during its cycle

Before you make any change, you must pause the washing machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button.

It is possible to change any phase before the programme carries it out.

Changing the type of fabric or temperature is possible, obviously, only during the washing phase.

If it is necessary to drain the water in order to change the programme in progress, proceed as follows:

PAUSE the machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button;

press the SKIP RESET button repeatedly, until only the DRAIN light remains lit;

press the START/PAUSE button again.

When the water has been drained, the display shows a blinking zero. You may now select a new programme and press the START/PAUSE button to start it.

12.How to cancel a programme during its cycle

To cancel a programme that is being carried out, first pause the washing machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button, then press the SKIP RESET button repeatedly, until the display shows three blinking dashes.

13.How to open the door during the cycle of a programme

You can open the door, after having set the washing machine to PAUSE, provided the following conditions exist:

the washing machine is not in the heating phase beyond 55°C;

the level of the water is not high;

the drum is not turning.

If these requirements are met, when you pause the washing machine, the door can be opened.

Should it not be possible to open the door, and should it be absolutely necessary to do so, switch the machine off by pressing the ON/OFF button.

After approximately 3 minutes, you can open the door.

Pay attention to the level and temperature of the water in the washing machine!

When you close the door and press the ON/OFF button again, the washing machine will resume the programme from the point of where it had been interrupted.

14. End of programme

At the end of the programme, the washing machine stops automatically, and displays a blinking zero.

If you had selected the NIGHT CYCLE option the relevant light is on, the START/PAUSE button light will flash and the door is locked to indicate that the water must be drained. A static zero will appear on the display. To drain and spin see page 8 (“NIGHT CYCLE position”).

When the programme has been completed, a blinking zero appears on the display.

Press the SKIP RESET button repeatedly to erase the programme that has just been carried out. If you omit to do this, the next time you switch the washing machine on, the blinking zero will appear on the display and acoustic signals are given.

Note: when you switch the machine on, if you must erase the previously performed programme, it is also sufficient to press the FABRICS button and select a new programme.

Press the ON/OFF button to switch the machine off. The relevant light will go out.

Remove the laundry from the washing machine.

Check whether the drum is completely empty, by rotating it with your hand. The purpose of this is to prevent any items of laundry from remaining accidentally in the drum, where they might get damaged in a subsequent wash (e.g. by shrinking) or

bleed colour into another load of laundry.

We advise you to close the water supply tap and disconnect the plug from the socket.

Leave the door ajar in order to air the washing machine.
