Special programme
Delicates (programme J for Synthetics) is designed to wash lightly soiled garments in a short amount of time: it
only lasts 30 minutes and allows you to save on both time and energy. By setting this programme (J at 30°C), you
can wash different fabrics together (except for woollen and silk items), with a maximum load of 3 kg.
We recommend the use of liquid detergent.
Briefly: starting a programme
1. Switch the washing machine on by pressing ON/OFF
button . All the LEDS will light up for a few
seconds and the ON-OFF/DOOR LOCKED Led will
begin to flash.
2. Load your laundry into the washing machine and
shut the appliance door.
3. Set the WASH PROGRAMME knob to the
programme required.
4. Set the wash temperature (see page 9).
5. Add the detergent and any fabric softener (see
page 10).
6. Start he programme by pressing the START
button. To cancel it, keep the START button
pressed for at least 2 seconds.
7. When the programme is finished, the ON-OFF/
DOOR LOCKED Led will flash to indicate that the
appliance door can be opened. Take out your
laundry and leave the appliance door ajar to
allow the drum to dry thoroughly. Turn the
washing machine off by pressing ON/OFF button.
