Only available in selected models.

Wash options*

The OPTIONS may only be set, modified or reset after the

wash cycle has been selected and before the START/

PAUSE symbol has been pressed.

Only the options which are compatible with the type of wash

cycle set may be selected. If an option is not compatible with

the selected wash cycle (see Table of wash cycles), the

corresponding symbol flashes rapidly 3 times.

If an option is selected which is incompatible with another

(previously selected) option, it will flash 3 times and will be

deselected, while the option selected first will remain active.

To deselect an option which has been set by mistake,

press the corresponding symbol again.

Delayed start*

It is possible to delay the start of the cycle for a period of time

between 1 and 24 hours.

1. After selecting the desired wash cycle and any other

options, press the DELAYED START symbol: the symbol on the

display will light up. Press the DELAYED START symbol to

select the time at which you wish the wash cycle to begin (after

a period of 1 to 24 hours).

2. Confirm your selection using the Start/Pause symbol; the

countdown will begin. The selected delay period is displayed

and the Start symbol stops flashing.

3. Once this time has elapsed, the DELAYED START symbol

switches off and the wash cycle begins.

To deselect it, press and hold the DELAYED START symbol

until the text OFF appears.

The DELAYED START function cannot be set once a

wash cycle has been started.

Short Time option*

This option can be used to reduce the duration of the main

wash cycles while maintaining the same washing and drying

performance levels.

After selecting the wash cycle, press the Short Time option

symbol; the illumination of the corresponding symbol on the

display indicates its selection.

To deselect the option, press the same symbol again.

The Short Time and Good Night options are not

compatible with each other.

The Short Time and Good Night options are not

compatible with the HALF LOAD option.

Half load using the upper/lower racks

With the Half Load option, it is possible to select whether to

perform the wash on the upper or lower rack,

saving water, energy and detergent. Select the wash cycle

and press the HALF LOAD symbol; the half load symbol (on

the display) and the upper rack indicator will light up; if

pressed again the half load symbol and lower rack indicator

will be displayed. The wash cycle only takes place on the

selected rack.

Remember to load the selected rack only, and to

reduce the amount of detergent accordingly.

It is better to use powder detergent in this case.

This option is incompatible with the following wash

cycle: Rapid and Baby.

Good Night option*

This option reduces the amount of noise made by the machine

and lengthens the wash cycles. It is a useful option because it

enables users to benefit from the night-time energy rate.

After selecting the wash cycle, press the Good Night option

symbol; the corresponding symbol lights up on the display to

indicate its selection.

To deselect the option, press the same symbol again.

The Good Night option is not compatible with the

HALF LOAD option.

Multi-functional tablets* (Tabs)

This option optimises washing and drying results.

When using multi-functional tablets, press the MULTI-

FUNCTIONAL TABLETS symbol: the corresponding

symbol will light up on the display. The Multi-functional

tablets option results in the lengthening of the wash

cycle.

The MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option remains

set for subsequent wash cycles if it is not deselected.

The use of tablets is only recommended when the

MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option is available.

This option is not recommended for use with wash

cycles which do not specify the use of multi-functional

tablets (see Table of options).
