11. How to change a programme
during its cycle
Before you make any change, you must pause the
washing machine by pressing the START/PAUSE
button.
It is possible to change any phase before the
programme carries it out.
Changing the type of fabric or temperature is
possible, obviously, only during the washing phase.
If it is necessary to drain the water in order to change
the programme in progress, proceed as follows:
• PAUSE the machine by pressing the
START/PAUSE button;
• press the SKIP RESET button repeatedly, until only
the DRAIN light remains lit;
• press the START/PAUSE button again.
When the water has been drained, the display shows
a blinking zero. You may now select a new
programme and press the START/PAUSE button to
start it.
12. How to cancel a programme
during its cycle
To cancel a programme that is being carried out, first
pause the washing machine by pressing the
START/PAUSE button, then press the SKIP RESET
button repeatedly, until the display shows three
blinking dashes.
13. How to open the door during
the cycle of a programme
You can open the door, after having set the washing
machine to PAUSE, provided the following
conditions exist:
• the washing machine is not in the heating phase
beyond 55°C;
• the level of the water is not high;
• the drum is not turning.
If these requirements are met, when you pause the
washing machine, the door can be opened.
Should it not be possible to open the door, and
should it be absolutely necessary to do so, switch
the machine off by pressing the ON/OFF button.
After approximately 3 minutes, you can open the
door.
Pay attention to the level and temperature of the
water in the washing machine!
When you close the door and press the ON/OFF
button again, the washing machine will resume the
programme from the point of where it had been
interrupted.
14. End of programme
At the end of the programme, the washing machine
stops automatically, and displays a blinking zero.
If you had selected the NIGHT CYCLE option the
relevant light is on, the START/PAUSE button light
will flash and the door is locked to indicate that the
water must be drained. A static zero will appear on
the display. To drain and spin see page 8 (“NIGHT
CYCLE position”).
When the programme has been completed, a
blinking zero appears on the display.
Press the SKIP RESET button repeatedly to erase
the programme that has just been carried out. If
you omit to do this, the next time you switch the
washing machine on, the blinking zero will
appear on the display and acoustic signals are
given.
Note: when you switch the machine on, if you must
erase the previously performed programme, it is also
sufficient to press the FABRICS button and select a
new programme.
Press the ON/OFF button to switch the machine off.
The relevant light will go out.
Remove the laundry from the washing machine.
Check whether the drum is completely empty, by
rotating it with your hand. The purpose of this is to
prevent any items of laundry from remaining
accidentally in the drum, where they might get
damaged in a subsequent wash (e.g. by shrinking) or
bleed colour into another load of laundry.
We advise you to close the water supply tap and
disconnect the plug from the socket.
Leave the door ajar in order to air the washing
machine.
