then only the indicator lights relative to the selected programme settings will remain lit and the START/PAUSE indica-
tor light will flash.

fixed manner, in green.
To cancel the set wash cycle, pause the machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button and select a new cycle.

Indicator lights
The indicator lights provide important information.
This is what they can tell you:
Wash cycle phase indicator lights
As the WASH CYCLE knob is rotated, the indicator lights
illuminate, indicating the stages which will be performed by
the machine in accordance with the selected wash cycle.
Once the desired wash cycle has been selected and has
begun, the indicator lights switch on one by one to indi-
cate which phase of the cycle is currently in progress.
Function buttons and corresponding indicator lights
When a function is selected, the corresponding indicator
light will illuminate.
If the selected function is not compatible with the pro-
grammed wash cycle, the corresponding indicator light
will flash, a sound signal will be emitted and the function
will not be activated.
If a function which is incompatible with another function
selected previously, only the most recent selection will
remain active.
Temperature indicator light
When a temperature value is selected, the correspon-
ding indicator light will illuminate.
Spin indicator light
When a spin value is selected, the corresponding indica-
tor light will illuminate.
Child lock indicator light
To activate the control panel lock, press and hold the
button for approximately 2 seconds. When the indicator
light is illuminated, the control panel is locked. This
means it is possible to prevent wash cycles from being
modified accidentally, especially where there are children
in the home.
To deactivate the control panel lock, press and hold the
button for approximately 2 seconds.
Door locked indicator light
If this indicator light is on, the appliance door is locked to
prevent it from being opened accidentally; to avoid any
damage, wait for the indicator light to switch off before you
open the appliance door.
N.B. If the DELAY START function is activated, the door
cannot be opened; pause the machine by pressing the
START/PAUSE button if you wish to open it.
! If the START/PAUSE indicator light (orange) flashes rapidly
at the same time as the function indicator light, this indica-
tes a problem has occurred (see “Troubleshooting”).
