ON-OFF/CANCEL button with indicator light :

press the button briefly to switch the machine on or

off. The green indicator light shows that the machine

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.
MEMORY buttons: press and hold one of the buttons

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.

button: press to reduce the r.p.m.

value or to exclude the spin cycle completely: the

INFO button: press the button to display information

relating to the selected wash cycle and options.

WASH CYCLE PHASE icons: these light up to

provide an indication of the progress of the wash

cycle (Wash

- Rinse

- Spin - Pump out ).

The text

lights up when the cycle has finished.

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

indicator light: this indicates

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.
