Signals for successive refilling:
When the level of detergent/fabric softener falls below the required level, at the end of the cycle, the first segment of the detergent symbol or the petal of the fabric softener symbol in the bottom left section, will flash slowly on the display. Once the detergent/fabric softener is finished, the first segment of the detergent symbol or the petal of the fabric softener symbol in the lower left section will flash fast to signal that the detergent or fabric softener tank is empty. While the cycle runs, with empty
tanks, the symbols will disappear; at the end of the cycle or during the pause mode, the first segment of the symbol and the petal of the symbol in the lower left section will flash fast. If the tanks are not filled, the successive wash cycles in Auto Dose System will be carried out without any intake of detergent.
We suggest adding detergent and fabric softener ONLY after the machine's signal.
NEVER mix two different detergents; always clean out the tank before adding a new type of detergent (refer to "Cleaning cycle set by the user").
Using the "Auto Dose System"
If the compartments have been filled with detergent and fabric softener, you may start using the machine (refer to "Running a wash cycle").

Automatic cleaning:
The washing machine carries out an automatic cleaning EN cycle during the rinse cycle if the level of detergent that remains is insufficient for carrying out a
successive wash cycle.

Run the cleaning cycle (with empty drum) if you require adding a different product to the previous one or if the tanks have been incorrectly filled (e.g. fabric softener has been erroneously poured into the detergent tank or

During the tank cleaning cycle, the symbol will fill gradually from bottom to top and the symbol will fill gradually petal by petal.
