Selecting options and their function
●
Wash Enhance:
Use this option to select a more intensive wash programme for the cotton 60˚C and cotton 40˚C for more
heavily soiled items. Additionally, use this option on the machine wash wool programme to select the special
Handwash wool programme for wool items that are not marked as machine washable. This cycle has been
approved by Woolmark for the Gold Care award.
●
Reduced Creases:
Selecting this option will run the wash programme with a more gentle action and lower spin speed, in addition
to carrying out an additional rinse to ensure your laundry has fewer creases and will require less ironing.
●
Rinse Hold:
Selecting this option will pause the cycle in the final rinse with the fabric conditioner keeping the laundry fresh
until you are ready to complete the programme. The Rinse Hold light will flash to indicate the cycle is paused.
The machine will stay in this state, tumbling the load occasionally until either the Start/Cancel button is
pressed or the Rinse Hold button is pressed again to continue the cycle.
●
Mini Load:
Use this option for smaller loads less than the capacity listed for the material and programme type ( see
Programmes Table ). This option reduces water consumption and washing time, saving energy when washing
smaller loads.
●
Extra Rinse (Aquarius only):
Provides a full extra rinse to ensure the maximum possible detergent removal, particularly useful for people
with sensitive skin.
●
Time Delay (Aquarius+ only):
Use this option to delay the programme start by up to 24 hours. The display will show the delay chosen.
Each press of the button increases the Time Delay in increments of 1 hour. If you press the button again after
24 shows in the display the machine will reset the Time Delay and show ‘OFF’ in the display, pressing the
button after this will start the Time Delay selection from 1 hour. Once the countdown reaches zero the
programme will start.
●
Variable Temperature:
Use this option ( if available on your model ) to reduce the wash temperature below the maximum for the
programme you have chosen.
- Aquarius only , turn the dial to the reduced temperature required. When the programme has finished
reset the dial to 95. If the dial is left at maximum (95), the wash temperature will be the maximum for
the chosen programme.
- Aquarius+ only , each press of the button will reduce the wash temperature by 5˚C. The new wash
temperature will be shown in the display. If you press again after ‘OFF’ has been displayed, the
machine will revert to the original higher temperature.
●
Variable Spin Speed:
Use this option ( if available on your model ) to reduce the spin speed below the maximum for the programme
you have chosen.
- Aquarius only , turn the dial to reduced spin speed required. When the programme has finished reset
the dial to maximum. If the dial is left at maximum, the spin speed will be the maximum for the chosen
programme.
- Aquarius+ only , each press of the button will reduce the spin speed. The new spin speed will be
shown in the display. If you press again after ‘OFF’ has been displayed, the machine will revert to the
original higher spin speed.
