Important!

Some programmes when selected may start with a short drain. This is quite normal and not a fault with the appliance.
When a programme is selected, the selector dial will advance to the water filling position. E.g. Programme B is
selected, there is a short drain. The appliance takes in water and the selector will appear to move to the C position.
The appliance will have memorised the programme selected, in this case B, and will run the correct programme
even though the selector dial appears to be at position C.

We recommend that you do not switch the appliance off and on during its operation. This would modify the
memorised programme in progress with unsatisfactory washing results.
