Programme Option buttons
Depending on the programme, different functions can be combined. These must be selected after choosing the desired programme and before depressing the “start pause” button.
When these buttons are pressed, the corresponding pilot lights come on. When they are pressed again, the pilot lights go out.
If an incorrect option is selected, the corresponding pilot light flashes for about 2 seconds.
2 Spin button
By depressing this button you can reduce the final and the intermediate spin speeds or select the “no spin” option:
●“spin reduction”: by selecting this option the speed will be reduced as follows:
Cotton: from 1200 to 600 r.p.m.
Synthetics and wool: from 900 to 450 r.p.m.
Delicates: from 700 to 450 r.p.m.
●“no spin”: by selecting this option all the spinning phases are suppressed. To be used for extremely delicate items.
The machine will add 3 rinses on cotton programmes and 1 rinse on synthetic programmes.
4 Half Load button
Select this button to reduce water consumption on the rinse cycle when washing a smaller load of cottons or linens (maximum load size = 3 kg).
The machine will perform 2 rinses instead of 3.
5 Rinse Hold button
When selecting this option the water of the last rinse is not emptied out, to prevent the fabrics from creasing. At the end of the programme the pilot lights “door” and “end” illuminate. To drain water, proceed as follows:
●turn the programme selector dial to position “O”;
●select programme 14 (drain) or 15 (spin). In this case reduce the spin speed by means of the relevant button to adapt it to the fabrics to be spun.
●press “start pause” button.
6 Start Pause button
After having selected the required programme, press this button to start the machine; the corresponding pilot light stops flashing.
To interrupt a programme which is running, depress the “start pause” button: the corresponding pilot light starts to flash.
To restart the programme from the point at which it was
interrupted, press the “start pause” button again.
3 Prewash button
Select this option if you wish your laundry to be prewashed before the main wash (not available for wool).
The prewash ends with a short spin in programmes for cotton and synthetic fabrics, whereas in the programme for delicate fabrics the water is only drained.
7 Programme progress display
By selecting the wash programme, the pilot lights corresponding to the various phases making up the programme come on.
