Start time preselection
By pressing the «Start time preselection» button one or
more times, the programme start time can be delayed
by up to 23,5 hours.
This makes it possible to take advantage of cheaper
night-time electricity, for example. The start time and
consequently also the end time of a programme can be
tailored to your individual lifestyle.
The start time and the anticipated programme end time
are shown on the display.
The preselected time starts when the start button is
pressed.
When the start time is reached, the selected programme
starts automatically. The current programme duration
will be displayed.
Note
The start time preselection only works if no soaking
pro gramme has been selected (see also chapter «Ex-
tended basic settings/Soaking programme»).
In the event of a power cut, the current time is saved.
The duration of the power cut is not taken into account.
When using start time preselection, use a dosing ball
for liquid detergent. If poured directly into the detergent
drawer, liquid detergent slowly runs out and thickens.
If this happens several times, it can lead to blockages
due to detergent deposits.
Reducing the temperature
Pressing the «Washing Temperature» button several
times reduces the wash temperature in 10°C stages
(15°C stages above 80°C).
The new temperature will be displayed. It can also be
changed during the first two minutes of the programme.
The lower temperature is compensated by an extension
of the post-wash time, which achieves the same result
for less energy.
Spin speed
This function is used to select a lower spin speed or a
rinse stop for a more gentle treatment of the laundry,
for example with delicate laundry (see next section).
Without spin speed reduction the laundry will be spun
at normal spin speed (see chapter «Basic settings/Spin
speed reduction»).
The spin speed depends on the programme chosen.
By pressing this button the spin speed can be reduced
By pressing the button repeatedly it can be reduced in
200 or 100 rpm increments. The slowest possible spin
speed is 200 rpm.
The spin speed can also be changed while a programme
is operating but not during the spin cycle however.
Increased spin speed
If the button spin speed is pressed again after «00», you
can select an increased spin speed (
1400
rpm). The spin-
ning intensity of the laundry will be increased.
Money-saving tip
If the laundry is to be dried in a tumble dryer, select a
high spin speed since well-drained laundry needs much
less energy and time for machine drying.
Rinsing stop
The «Rinsing stop» function is used to avoid creasing of
sensitive fabrics. The laundry is held in the last rinse
water. Select rinsing stop by reducing the spin speed until
you see «Rinsing stop» on the display.
You can end the programme by draining the laundry
without spinning or by spinning (see chapter «Washing/
Ending the programme with rinsing stop»).
Quick Wash
The programme can be shortened or aborted by press-
ing the quick wash button.
