Page 9: Functions

Setting the temperature

Press the TEMPERATURE button to set the wash temperature (see Table of wash cycles). The temperature may be lowered, or even

set to a cold wash . The waher-dryer will automatically prevent you from selecting a temperature which is higher than the maximum.

Setting the drying cycle

Note: if all the drying indicator lights remain unlit, the

machine will not perform the drying cycle.

Press the DRYING knob to select the desired drying

option. There are two options:

A - Based on time: 60 and 180 (Max. 4 kg).

B - Based on the desired laundry dryness level:

Iron dry : suitable for clothes which will need ironing

afterwards. the remaining dampness softens creases,

making them easier to remove.

Hanger dry : ideal for clothes which do not need to be

dried fully.

Cupboard dry : suitable for laundry which can be put

back in

a cupboard without being ironed.
If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater than the maximum stated load (see adjacent table), perform the

wash cycle, and when the cycle is complete, divide the garments into groups and put some of them back in the drum. At this

point, follow the instructions provided for a “Drying only” cycle. Repeat this procedure for the remainder of the load.
Drying only

Use the cycle selector knob to select a drying cycle (11-12-13) in accordance with the type of fabric. The desired drying level

or time may also be set using the DRYING button.

Functions

The various wash functions available with this waher-dryer will help to achieve the desired results, every time.

To activate the functions:

1. Press the button corresponding to the desired function;

2. the function is enabled when the corresponding indicator light is illuminated.
Note: If the indicator light flashes rapidly, this signals that this particular function may not be selected in conjunction with the

selected wash cycle.

The

option optimises washing to suit the quantity of laundry loaded into the machine, thereby reducing the overall

wash cycle duration while minimising water and energy consumption. Press the

button to select the type of wash

cycle desired:

Intense: vigorous wash cycle for garments with a heavy soil level.

Perform: standard wash cycle for garments with a normal soil level.

Fast: quick wash cycle for garments with a light soil level.

This may only be used in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 2, 3, 4 (all three levels) and 5, 6 (Perform and Fast levels).

Easy iron

By selecting this function, the wash and spin cycles will be modified in order to reduce the formation of creases. At the end of

the cycle the waher-dryer will perform slow rotations of the drum, while the EASY IRON and START/PAUSE indicator lights will

flash (blue and orange respectively) and the

led will remain lit in a fixed manner. To end the cycle, press the START/PAUSE

button or the EASY IRON button. For wash cycle number 8, the machine will end the cycle while the laundry is soaking; the

EASY IRON and START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash. To drain the water so that the laundry may be removed, press the

START/PAUSE button or the EASY IRON button.

It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, ,

Note: If you also want to run the drying cycle, this option is enabled only if combined with level .

Cool Wash

The Cool Wash function saves energy by not heating the water used to wash your laundry – an advantage both to the

environment and to your energy bill. Instead, intensified wash action and water optimisation ensure great wash results in the

same average time of a standard cycle.

For the best washing results we recommend the usage of a liquid detergent.

It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, ,

Spin (1200-600)

By selecting this function, reduces the spin speed.

This function may not be used in conjunction with wash cycles 8, 11, 12, 13, .
