Read these instructions carefully: they contain vital information relating to the safe installation and operation of the appliance. [. . . ] The indicator light corresponding to the selected option will remain lit. Pressing the corresponding button allows you to view the maximum spin speed and temperature values attained by the machine during the set wash cycle, or the values selected most recently, if these are compatible with the set wash cycle. The “wash cycle phases” corresponding to the selected wash cycle and the “wash cycle phase” of the running wash cycle appear in section B: Main wash Rinse Spin Pump out The icons corresponding to “temperature”, “spin” and “delayed start” (working from the left) are displayed in section C. The “temperature” bars indicate the maximum temperature level which may be selected for the set cycle. The “spin” bars indicate the maximum spin level which may be selected for the set cycle. The “delay” symbol , when lit, indicates that the set “delayed start” value has appeared on the display. dOOR LOCKED indicator light: The lit symbol indicates that the door is locked. 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 4 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”). [. . . ] Pre-treatment with special additives is recommended if there are obstinate stains. Anti Stain Quick: this programme is ideal for washing the most difficult daily stains in 1 hour. It is ideal for mixed fabrics and coloured garments, caring for your clothes as it washes. 10 Load balancing system Before every spin cycle, to avoid excessive vibrations before every spin and to distribute the load in a uniform manner, the drum rotates continuously at a speed which is slightly greater than the washing rotation speed.
