progress, the appliance will ignore the new selected programme. “Err” flashes and the “Start/Pause” pushbutton flashes red for a few seconds then the current cycle display reappears.

Selecting the temperature

Press the “Temperature” pushbutton repeatedly to in- crease or decrease the tem- perature if you want your washing to be washed at a different temperature to the one selected by the applian- ce. The symbol means a cold wash.

Selecting the spin speed

Press the “Spin” pushbut-

ton to change the spin

speed, if you want your

washing to be spun at a dif-

ferent speed to the one se-

lected by the appliance. You can also select “No spin”*, “Rinse hold”* or “Night silen- ce plus” *.

The maximum speeds are :

for Cotton and Denim : 1200 rpm,

for Wool and Hand Wash : 900 rpm, for Synthetics, Easy to iron, Underwear and Sport : 900 rpm,

for Delicates and Silk : 700 rpm.

At the end of the programme, if you have selected “Rinse and hold” or “Night si- lence plus” , you then need to select a “Spin” or “Drain” programme to finish the cycle.

*depending on model

“Night silence plus”

The washing machine does not empty the water after the final rinse which pre- vents the washing from creasing. Be- cause there are no spin cycles, the washing programme is very quiet and can be selected at night. In Cotton and Synthetics programmes, the rinsing cy- cle uses more water.

Selecting options

You must select the different options af- ter selecting the programme and before pressing the “Start/Pause” pushbutton (see “Programme table”). Press the de- sired button(s) ; the corresponding lights come on. If pressed again, the lights go out. If one of the options is not compati- ble with the selected programme, “Err” flashes on the display and the “Start/ Pause” pushbutton flashes red.

“Prewash” option

The appliance runs a prewash at 30°C max. The prewash finishes with a short spin cycle for cotton or synthetic pro- grammes, and with an empty cycle for delicates programmes.

“Rinse plus” option

The washing machine will add one or more rinses during the cycle.

This option is recommended for people with sensitive skin and in soft water areas.
