Auxiliary function selection keys

Select the required auxiliary functions before starting the program.

C Auxiliary function buttons may differ according to the model of your machine.

Auxiliary function selection

If an auxiliary function that should not be selected together with a previously selected function is chosen, the first selected function will be cancelled and the last auxiliary function selection will remain active.

Auxiliary function that is not compatible with the program cannot be selected. (see “Program Selection Table”)

Pre-wash

A pre-wash is only worthwhile for heavily soiled laundry. Without pre-wash you save energy, water, detergent and time. Pre-wash without detergent is recommended for lace and curtains.

Quick wash

This function can be used for cottons and synthetics programs. It decreases the washing times for lightly soiled laundries and also the number of rinsing steps. Shortens the program time approximately 45 minutes.

Rinse plus

With this function, you can increase the number of current rinsing steps. Thus, sensitive skins’ risk of being affected by the remainder detergent on the clothes will be decreased.

Rinse hold

If you do not want to unload your clothes immediately after the cotton, synthetics, woolen and delicate fabrics program, you may release your clothes inside the machine in the last rinsing water by pressing the rinse hold button in order to prevent your clothes become wrinkled. You can spin by pressing “Start/Pause/Cancel” button after this process.

Anti-creasing

This function reduces drum movement and limits the spinning speed to prevent creasing. In addition, washing is carried out at a higher water level.

C Use this function for delicate laundries that crease easily.

C Whenever you select this auxiliary function, load your machine with half of the maximum laundry specified in the program table.

Spin speed reduction

You may use the speed reduction button whenever you wish to spin your clothes below the maximum spin speed. When speed reduction button is pressed, spin speed will be

at the minimum rpm given on the panel.

No spin

You may use this program if you do not want to spin your clothes at the end of cottons, synthetics, woolen or delicate programs.

Time delay

If you wish to wash your clothes at a later time in machines equipped with a time delay button, the time delay function allows you to delay the program start time for 3, 6 or 9 hours.

When the time delaying button is pressed once, a 3 hours delay is selected. When the same button is pressed again, 6 hours; and if pressed once more, a 9 hours delay will be selected. If the time delaying button is pressed one more time, time delaying function will be cancelled. Time delay function starts countdown after setting the desired time delay and pressing the “Start/Pause/Cancel” button. C More laundry may be loaded during the

time delay period.

Changing and canceling the time delay. Press the “Start/Pause/Cancel” button to switch the machine to “Pause” mode. Press “Start/Pause/Cancel” button to start the program after making the new time delay selection.

Starting the Program

Press “Start/Pause/Cancel” button to start the program. “Start/Pause/Cancel” button will light up to indicate that the program has started. The door is locked and the “Ready” light fades.

Progressing a program

Progress of a running program is shown through the program follow-up indicator. At the beginning of every program step, the relevant indicator lamp will light up and light of the completed step will turn off.

C If the machine is not spinning, the program may be in rinse hold mode or the automatic spin correction system might have been activated because of excessive unbalanced distribution of laundry in the machine.

Changing the program after the program has started

You can use this feature after your machine has started to wash different textile groups in the same batch of clothes under higher or lower temperatures. You must cancel the ongoing program in order to change the washing program.

For example, press and hold the “Start/Pause/ Cancel” button for 3 seconds in order to select “Cottons 40” program instead of “Cottons 60”
