is switched on. To switch the washing machine off
during a wash cycle, press and hold the button for
approximately 2 seconds; pressing the button quickly
or accidentally will not switch the machine off.
If the machine is switched off during a wash cycle,
the programme will be cancelled.

directions. To set a more suitable programme, please
refer to the Table of Programmes.
The knob is locked into position during the wash cycle.

to store a cycle with your own set preferences in the
memory of the machine. To recall a previously-stored
cycle, press the corresponding button.

relating to the selected wash cycle and options.
WASH CYCLE PHASE icons: these light up to

START/PAUSE button with indicator light: when the
green indicator light flashes slowly, press the button to
start the wash cycle. When the cycle has started, the
indicator light is illuminated in a fixed manner. To pause
the wash cycle, press the button again; the indicator light
will turn orange and begin to flash again. If the Door
Locked
indicator light is off, the porthole door may
be opened. To restart the wash cycle from the point at
which it was interrupted, press the button again.
DOOR LOCKED

that the porthole door is locked. To open the door,
pause the wash cycle (see following page).
CHILD LOCK
button and indicator light: this is
used to enable or disable the Child lock function, by
pressing the button for approximately 2 seconds. When
the indicator light is illuminated, the control panel is
locked. This avoids accidental changes being made to
the wash cycles, especially where children are at home.
ECO indicator light: the
icon lights up when the
electricity saving reaches at least 10% (this can be
achieved by adjusting the wash cycle settings).
When the machine is first switched on, you will be asked to
choose a language (Select Language appears on the display):
press the INFO button repeatedly until the required language
appears on the display. After 5 seconds the language
selection will be stored in the memory of the machine. If the
wrong language is selected by mistake, press and hold the
INFO and DELAYED START buttons simultaneously; this will
return the language selection menu to the display.
