A Combined Washing and drying programme
See table below and follow instructions provided for MAX load to have an automatic washing
and drying cycle.
-
Select the wash programme.
-
Select the programme wash temperature.
-
Set the Drying Cycle knob C to the type of drying cycle required. Drying times vary in
accordance to spin speed, the higher the spin speed the shorter the drying time and
therefore the lower consumption of electricity. The highest possible spin speed for your
type of laundry is recommended.
NB. If a spin speed has not been selected the appliance will not carry out the automatic
drying cycle:
-
Press the On/Off button, I, to start the washing and drying programme.
Wool drying cycle
The drying cycle for woollen garments should only, and exclusively, be run together with the
selection of a specific cycle time (150 - 100 - 60 - 40 minutes).
We recommend a 60 minute drying cycle for a 1kg load.
If one of the three levels (Extra Dry , Hanger Dry , Iron ) is selected by mistake, the
appliance will run a drying cycle lasting the Max. time foreseen (150 minutes).
Important
A spin cycle is carried out during the drying if you have set a cotton programme and a level of
dryness (Extra Dry , Hanger Dry , Iron ).
Drying only
Once you have loaded the washing to be dried (refer to table for Max. load).
-
Ensure that the door is shut correctly, both the mains electricity and water supply is turned
on.
-
Ensure the On/Off button, I, is depressed to the ON position.
-
Set the Programme Selection knob, A, to the appropriate drying setting (depending
on fabric type).
-
Set the Drying Cycle knob,C, and press the On/Off button, I, to ON.
-
Wait for the On/Off Indicator / Door Locked Indicator light, L, to flash slowly, then press the
On/Off button, I, OFF.
-
Now you can open the door and remove the laundry.
