How to wash correctly

Start the programme

Press the flashing Start/Stop button.

The estimated programme duration will appear in the display once the programme has started. During the first 8 minutes the machine measures how much water is being absorbed by the laundry. The programme duration may be longer or shorter depending on this absorbency rate.

The programme sequence is also shown in the display. The washing machine shows you when each section of the programme is reached.

Remove the laundry when the programme has finished

In the anti-crease phase after the programme has finished, the following will appear alternately in the display:

0:00 Anti-crease

and

0:00 Finish

Press the Door button to open the drum door.

Remove the laundry.

Check that all items have been removed from the drum. Items left in the drum could discolour other items in the next wash or become discoloured themselves.

Check the folds in the door seal for any small articles, e.g. buttons which might be lodged there.

Switch the machine off with the I-On/0-Offbutton.

Close the drum door. Otherwise there is the danger of objects being placed inadvertently in the drum. If these remained unnoticed and were washed in the next load, they could damage the laundry.
