Add the detergent as described in the programme 
table or in the chapter “Detergent and Additives” of 
the Instructions for Use.
1. Turn the programme selector to the desired 

programme.

2. The remaining time display shows the duration 

of the chosen programme (in hours and 
minutes) and the lamp of the “Start/Pause” 
button  

flashes.

3. The indicator of the predefined spin speed 

corresponding to the selected programme lights 
up; it can be altered by pressing the “Variable 
spin” button. The recommended temperature 
(see indicator) can be altered by pressing the 
+” or “” button.

Selecting any option the indication lights up.
When the combination of programme, 
additional options and temperature is not 
possible, the indication lights switch off 
automatically and a signal sounds.
“Easy ironing” button
• Can be selected to reduce creasing.
• Increases the water quantity and the clothes are 

spun very gently.

“Prewash” button
• Only for heavily soiled laundry (e.g. sand, 

granular dirt). The cycle time increases by 
approx. 15 minutes.

• Do not use liquid detergent for the main wash 

when activating the “Prewash” button.

“Extra rinse” button
• More water and a longer time in rinse cycle is 

added.

• This option is particularly suitable for areas with 

very soft water, for baby clothes and to help 
people with allergies.

“Rinse hold” button
• The laundry remains in the last rinse water 

without being spun: this prevents creasing and 
colours from changing.

• This option is particularly recommended for the 

programme “Synthetics” or “Delicate”.

• It is particularly useful if you want to postpone 

spinning to a later time, or if you want to drain 
only.

Note: The programme stops to “Rinse hold” as 
soon as the “Rinse hold” light in the programme 
sequence indicator lights up.
Terminate the “Rinse hold” option 

:

• Press the “Rinse hold” button again; the 

programme will terminate automatically with the 
final spin cycle for the present wash programme.

Prewash cycle increases programme duration by approximately 15 min. Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in 
compliance with Standard IEC/EN 60 456. Consumption data in the home may vary with respect to the values in the table in relation to the 
water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of wash.
*

The remaining time indicator can deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the operating conditions 
applicable at that time.

**

To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle, before the pump drains the water out.

***  Reference programme for energy label.
