chapter “Detergent and Additives” in your Instructions for Use.

1.

Press “On/Off” 

 to switch on the washer. The light of the selected 

programme is on, and the “Start (Pause)” button 

 blinks.

2.

Turn the programme selector to the desired programme - 

it is marked by a light.

3.

The predefined temperature and spin speed can be altered 

by pressing the “Temperature” 

 and the “Spin speed” 

 

modifier.

Selecting any option or modifier, the indication lights up. If the 

combination of programme, options or modifiers is not possible, 

the indication lights switch off automatically and a signal sounds.

“Eco” button

• The duration of the wash is extended and the temperature 

reduced. This saves you energy and maintains good washing results.

“Easy ironing” button

• Reduces creasing by increased water quantity and a very gentle spin. 

“Rinse hold” button

• The laundry remains in the last rinse water without being spun: 

this prevents creasing and colours from changing.

• Particularly useful if you want to postpone spinning to a later 

time, or if you want to drain only.

• Do not leave the laundry to soak in the rinse hold for too long.
Note: The programme starts to “Rinse hold” when the “Rinse hold” 
button light blinks; the “Start (Pause)” button light 

 also blinks.

Terminate the “Rinse hold” option 

:

• Press the “Rinse hold” or the “Start (Pause)” button 

; the 

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

• If you do not wish to spin the clothes, press and hold the 

“Reset (Drain)” button 

 for a few seconds. The water 

is drained out then, before the door can be opened.

“Spin speed” modifier
• Every programme has an automatic predefined spin speed.
• Press the button to set another spin speed.
• If you select spin speed “0”, the final spinning is cancelled and 

the water is drained out only at the end of the programme.

“Rinse” modifier 
• “SkinCare” 

: maximum amount of rinse water is added, 

and rinse cycle is prolonged.

• “Intensive rinse” 

: more rinse water is added, and rinse 

cycle is prolonged.

• Particularly suitable for areas with very soft water, for baby 

clothes or to help people with skin allergies.

The remaining programme time can deviate from the values in the table as it depends on the size of your wash load, water inlet temperature etc.; the 

remaining time indication is newly calculated and updated if necessary approximately 20 minutes after programme start.

The consumption data for “Heavy duty” refer to a programme setting without “Eco” and “Heavy soil”, except the data which is indicated in the line marked with “***”.

*

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.

**

The grey shaded columns show energy consumptions and programme durations for the washing machine being connected to both hot and cold fill, 

with a hot fill inlet temperature of 60°C. The columns left from them show energy consumptions and programme durations for the washing machine 

being connected to cold water only by the Y-adapter.
