Indicator lights

The indicator lights provide important information.

This is what they can tell you:

Wash cycle phase indicator lights

As the WASH CYCLE knob is rotated, the indicator

lights illuminate, indicating the stages which will be

performed by the machine in accordance with the

selected wash cycle.
Once the desired wash cycle has been selected and

has begun, the indicator lights switch on one by one

to indicate which phase of the cycle is currently in

progress.

Note: during the "Drain" phase, the indicator light

corresponding to the "Spin" cycle phase will illuminate.

Function buttons and corresponding

indicator lights

When a function is selected, the corresponding

indicator light will illuminate.

If the selected function is not compatible with the

programmed wash cycle, the corresponding

indicator light will flash, a sound signal will be

emitted and the function will not be activated.

If a function which is incompatible with another

function selected previously, only the most recent

selection will remain active.

Temperature indicator light

When a temperature value is selected, the

corresponding indicator light will illuminate.

Drying indicator light

When a drying value is selected, the corresponding

indicator light will illuminate.

Child lock indicator light

To activate the control panel lock, press and hold

the button for approximately 2 seconds. When the

indicator light is illuminated, the control panel is

locked. This means it is possible to prevent wash

cycles from being modified accidentally, especially

where there are children in the home.

To deactivate the control panel lock, press and hold

the button for approximately 2 seconds.

Door locked indicator light

If this indicator light is on, the appliance door is locked

to prevent it from being opened accidentally; to avoid

any damage, wait for the indicator light to switch off

before you open the appliance door.

N.B. If the DELAY TIMER function is activated, the door

cannot be opened; pause the machine by pressing the

START/PAUSE button if you wish to open it.

If the START/PAUSE indicator light (orange)

flashes rapidly at the same time as the function

indicator light, this indicates a problem has

occurred (see “Troubleshooting”).

Starting a wash cycle

seconds, then they will switch off and the START/PAUSE indicator light will pulse.

lit in a fixed manner, in green.

To cancel the set wash cycle, pause the machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button and select a new cycle.
9. At the end of the wash cycle the

indicator light will switch on. The DOOR LOCKED indicator light will
