If the washing machine is sold, transferred or moved, make sure that the instruction manual remains with the machine so that the new owner is able to familiarise himself/herself with its operation and features. Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital information relating to the safe installation and operation of the appliance. [. . . ] WASH CYCLE SELECTOR KNOB: used to set the desired wash cycle (see “Table of programmes and wash cycles”). oPTION button and indicator light: press to select the available options. The indicator light corresponding to the selected option will remain lit. To prevent any damage, wait until the symbol turns off before opening the door. To open the door while a cycle is in progress, press the START/PAUSE button; if the DOOR LOCKED symbol is switched off the door may be opened. Press the button; the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash slowly in a green colour. Load the laundry, making sure you do not exceed the maximum load value indicated in the table of programmes and wash cycles on the following page. Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into the relevant compartments as described in “Detergents and laundry”. A temperature and spin speed is set for each wash cycle; these values may be adjusted. The machine automatically displays the maximum temperature and spin speed values set for the selected cycle, or the most recently-used settings if they are compatible with the selected cycle. The temperature can be decreased by pressing the button, until the cold wash “OFF” setting is reached. The spin speed may be progressively reduced by pressing the button, until it is completely excluded (the “OFF” setting). Exception: if the 3 programme is selected, the temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C. To set a delayed start for the selected cycle, press the corresponding button repeatedly until the required delay period has been reached. When this option has been activated, the symbol lights up on the display. To remove the delayed start setting, press the button until the text “OFF” appears on the display. Option makes it possible to optimise washing based on the level of soil in the fabrics and on desired wash cycle intensity. Select the wash programme: the cycle will be automatically set to “Normal” as optimised for garments with an average level of soil (this setting is not applicable to the “Wool” cycle, which is automatically set to “Delicate”). For heavily-soiled garments press button until the “Intensive” level is reached. This level ensures a high-performance wash due to a larger quantity of water used in the initial phase of the cycle and due to increased drum rotation. If you desire bleaching, insert the extra tray compartment (4) into compartment 1. When pouring in the bleach, be careful not to exceed the “max” level marked on the central pivot (see figure pag. [. . . ] Do not exceed the listed values, which refer to the weight of the laundry when dry: see “Table of programmes and wash cycles”. 1 sheet 400-500 g 1 pillow case 150-200 g 1 tablecloth 400-500 g 1 bathrobe 900-1, 200 g 1 towel 150-250 g Special wash cycles Anti Stain: the programme 1 is suitable to heavily-soiled garments with resistant colours. It ensures a washing class that is higher than the standard class (A class). Pre-treatment with special additives is recommended if there are obstinate stains. [. . . ]
