Indicator lights

The indicator lights provide important information. This is what they can tell you:

Wash cycle phase indicator lights

As the WASH CYCLE knob is rotated, the indicator lights illuminate, indicating the stages which will be performed by the machine in accordance with the selected wash cycle.

Once the desired wash cycle has been selected and has begun, the indicator lights switch on one by one to indicate which phase of the cycle is currently in progress.

Wash

Rinse

Spin

Pump out

End of wash cycle

Function buttons and corresponding indicator lights When a function is selected, the corresponding indicator light will illuminate.

If the selected function is not compatible with the program- med wash cycle, the corresponding indicator light will flash and the function will not be activated.

If a function which is incompatible with another function selected previously, only the most recent selection will remain active.

Temperature indicator light

When a temperature value is selected, the corresponding GB indicator light will illuminate.

Spin indicator light

When a spin value is selected, the corresponding indicator light will illuminate.

Door locked indicator light

If this indicator light is on, the appliance door is locked to prevent it from being opened accidentally; to avoid any damage, wait for the indicator light to switch off before you open the appliance door (wait approximately 3 minutes). N.B. If the DELAY START function is activated, the door cannot be opened; pause the machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button if you wish to open it.

!If the START/PAUSE indicator light (orange) flashes rapidly at the same time as the function indicator light, this indicates a problem has occurred (see “Troubleshooting”).

9.At the end of the wash cycle the indicator light will switch on. The DOOR LOCKED indicator light will switch off, indi- cating that the door may be opened (wait approximately 3 minutes).
