Wash cycles and options
Wash options
The “PRIME” technology optimises energy, water and time
consumption according to the quantity of garments actually
inserted in the machine. Moreover, pressing the button
allows for selecting the following options:
- Water: allows for reducing water consumption without
having to renounce impeccable results (recommended for
heavily soiled garments).
- Energy: automatically selected by “PRIME”, this option
reduces energy consumption (recommended for normally
soiled garments).
- Time: allows for reducing wash cycle duration
(recommended for lightly soiled garments).
! This may only be used in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 2,
3, 4, 5 (all three levels) and 6, 7 (- Energy and - Time 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 washer-
dryer will perform slow rotations of the drum, while the EASY IRON and
START/PAUSE indicator lights will flash (blue and orange respectively). To
end the cycle, press the START/PAUSE button or the EASY IRON button.
For wash cycles number 9-10, 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 8, 11, 12,
13, , .
Note: If you also want to run the drying cycle, this option is
enabled only if combined with level “A1” (Iron dry).
Stain removal
This function is particularly useful
for the removal of stubborn stains.
Insert extra compartment 4
(supplied with the appliance) into
compartment 1. When pouring
in the bleach, be careful not to
exceed the “max” level marked
on the central pivot (see figure).
To bleach laundry with no
other washing action, pour the
bleach into extra compartment
4, select the “Rinse” cycle and activate the “Stain removal”
option . To bleach during a wash cycle, pour in the detergent
and any fabric softener you wish to use, select the desired wash
cycle and enable the “Stain removal” option. The use of extra
compartment 4 excludes the pre-wash function.
! It cannot be used in conjunction with wash cycles 1, 6, 8, 9,
10, 11, 12, 13, , .
Delayed start
To set a delayed start for the selected cycle, press the
corresponding button repeatedly until the required delay period
has been reached. When this option is enabled, the corresponding
indicator light will remain lit. To remove the delayed start setting,
press the button until the text “OFF” appears on the display.
! This option can be used in conjunction with all cycles.
