The temperature can be decreased by pressing the TEMPERATURE button, until the cold wash “OFF” setting is reached. If this button is pressed again, the maximum values are restored.

programme is selected, the temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C.
Setting a delayed start.
To set a delayed start for the selected programme, press the corresponding button repeatedly until the required delay period has been reached. When this option is enabled, the 
symbol lights up on the display. To remove the delayed start function press the button until the text “OFF” appears on the display.
Setting the drying cycle.
The desired drying cycle type may be set by pressing the DRY button once or several times. Two options are available: A - Based on the how damp the clothes are once they have been dried:
Iron: suitable for clothes which will need ironing afterwards. the remaining dampness softens creases, making them easier to remove.
Hanger: ideal for clothes which do not need to be dried fully.
Cupboard: suitable for laundry which can be put back in a cupboard without being ironed.
Extra: suitable for garments which need to be dried completely, such as sponges and bathrobes.
B - Based on a set time period: between 20 and 180 minutes. To exclude the drying phase press the relevant button until the text OFF appears on the display.
If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater than the maximum stated load, perform the wash cycle, and when the cycle is complete, divide the garments into groups and put some of them back in the drum. At this point, follow the instructions provided for a “Drying only” cycle. Repeat this procedure for the remainder of the load. A
Drying only

) in accordance with the type of fabric. The desired drying level or time may also be set using the DRY button.
Selecting the cotton drying cycle through the programme selector knob and pressing the “Eco” button activates an automatic drying cycle that allows for saving energy, thanks to an optimal combination of air temperature and cycle duration; the display will visualise the “Eco” dryness level.
Set the desired wash intensity.
Option CLEANING ACTION makes it possible to optimise washing based on the level of soil in the fabrics and on desired wash cycle intensity.
Select the wash programme: the cycle will be automatically set to “Normal” as optimised for garments with an average level of soil (this setting is not applicable to the “Wool” cycle, which is automatically set to “Delicate”).
