USAGE

If your clothes are only slightly soiled, do not prewash and put a small amount of detergent, as specified by the manufacturer, into compartment II of the detergent drawer.

If your clothes are excessively soiled, select a programme with pre-wash and put ¼ of the detergent to be used into compartment I of the detergent drawer and the rest in compartment II.

Your Washer Dryer contains a system to help you select the correct quantity of detergent based

on the weight of your laundry. The information screen displays a symbol and indicates how much detergent is required (1/3, 2/3 or 3/3). For example, the screen in fig 17 recommends that you fill the detergent drawer to the MAX level.

Figure 17

Water Softener:

A water softener can be used to reduce the amount of detergent required in hard water areas. Follow the guidance on the packaging and dispense as instructed. First add the detergent, then the water softener.

Fabric Conditioners and Liquid Starch:

Fabric conditioners make garments soft to handle.

Starch stiffens and gives body to items such as bed linen.

To add fabric conditioner or liquid starch, pour the amount as instructed on the packaging into

the compartment of the detergent drawer, taking care not to exceed the MAX level.

Selecting a Programme:

To select the desired programme, turn the programme dial either clockwise or anti-clockwise until the marker on the dial points to the chosen programme.

The programme name and features will be displayed on the information screen.

For some programmes you can adjust the water temperature by pressing the button. The selected temperature will be displayed in the top left corner of the information screen.

For some programmes you can adjust the spin speed by pressing the button. The selected spin speed will be displayed on the top of the information screen.

Figure 18 shows the information screen when the cotton programme is selected, the temperature shown is 90 0C and the spin speed 1400 rpm.

Please Note: For more information on available temperature and spin speed settings for individual programmes, refer to the tables on 37 to 48.

After setting the spin speed, if you select a drying programme, your machine will select the spin speed automatically to enhance drying performance,
