how to run a wash cycle
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.
“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.
