When the option is selected for delicate programmes, the machine stops in the final rinse stage and the load will be held within the water in the drum, thus reduces creasing and enabling easier ironing. Press the “CARESSE” button to continue with the programme. The machine will the pump out the remaining water and the programme will conclude with a low speed spin for approximately 15 seconds. Finally, the programme carries out a brief tumbling action to “loosen” the items in the load.
Energy Saver Dial
Can be turned in either direction
The washing machine is equipped with an Energy Saver knob to set the temperature you require. Bigger energy savings can be achieved by using the lower temperature settings
around the dial between 
and 40°C (dotted line). By selecting the 
position, the wash temperature is limited to the water inlet temperature thus reducing energy consumption further. We recommend that the temperature shown on wash care garments should never be exceeded. The most suitable temperature and cycle for each type of fabric is shown in the programme guide table.
In the case where the temperature has been accidentally set higher than those within each programme (see programme guide table), the machine will lower the temperature automatically to protect the fabrics.
PROGRAMME Selector
Note: do not press the on/off button before selecting the programme. Never turn the knob
The tables in the washing section describe the various programmes and illustrate the number or symbol to select for them.
Note: this model is fitted with an electronic“sensor”device that checks the load is balanced correctly. If the load is slightly unbalanced the machine will
If, after several attempts, balance is not restored a reduced spin speed will be used.
If loads are seriously unbalanced the spin stage will be cancelled. This helps limit vibration, reduce noise and improve the washing machine’s reliability and life.
