Extra Economy
Reduces water consumption
during the rinse cycles. We
recommend that you use this
function only with small laundry
loads, dosing the detergent
proportionally.

On-off
When button E is pressed, the
washing machine is switched
on, when it is not the machine
is switched off.
Turning the appliance off
does not cancel the selected
programme.

The on-off lamp
Lamp  F  flashes when the
appliance is switched on and
awaiting a programme to be set.
A steady light means the
appliance has accepted the
selected programme.

Here I’m in command

Understanding the control panel

Making the right choice is important. And it’s easy.

Programme selector knob
Use this knob to select the wash
programme.
Turn this knob clockwise only.
To select a programme, you
should turn the knob so that the
symbol/number  of the desired
programme is in line with the
pointer on the knob.
Now press on/off button E
(position 

I

), pilot lamp F will start

flashing.
After 5", the setting will be
accepted, pilot lamp F will stop
flashing (staying lit) and the
wash cycle will begin.
Should you wish to interrupt the
programme in progress or set a
new one, select one of the
symbols 

 

(Stop/Reset) and

wait 5" : when the cancellation
has been accepted, pilot lamp
F flashes, and you can then turn
the appliance off.
After the wash cycle has been
set and accepted by the
washing machine, turning the
knob will have no effect (except
for when it is on position   Stop/
Reset).

Detergent dispenser
It is divided into three
compartments:
1. Detergent for pre-wash;
2. Detergent for the main cycle

wash;

3. Fabric conditioner.

Anti-crease
This button allows you to
interrupt a programme (on
symbol 

) keeping the washing

soaking in  water before the spin
cycle. It is a very useful button
in particular because it can be
used for delicates and
synthetics. It is only to be used
with wash programmes for
synthetic fabrics, silk and
curtains when it is impossible for
you to take the washing out
immediately. Before opening the
washing machine door, finish the
wash cycle as follows:

Silk and curtains:

 press button C

and the machine will drain the
water.

Synthetic fabrics:

 press button C

if you want a spin cycle, or turn
knob A to symbol 

 if you want

the water to be drained.

With “Daily wash”, this function

is not enabled.

The detergent dispenser is here.
