EN DESCRIPTION OF CONTROL “Kg DETECTOR” (Function active only on Cotton and Synthetics programmes) Through every wash phase “Kg DETECTOR” allows to monitor information on the wash load in the drum.
EN PROGRAMME SELECTOR WITH OFF POSITION B WHEN THE PROGRAMME SELECTOR IS TURNED THE DISPLAY LIGHTS UP TO SHOW THE SETTINGS FOR THE PROGRAMME SELECTED. TODAY, MOST DETERGENTS HAVE BEEN IMPROVED TO WASH EFFICIENTLY AT LOWER TEMPERATURES, THEREFORE WE HAVE SET THE DEFAULT TEMPERATURE SETTINGS OF EACH PROGRAMME TO A LOWER LEVEL, SAVING ELECTRICITY AND REDUCING THE CARBON FOOTPRINT OF YOUR MACHINE. YOU CAN SELECT AN HIGH TEMPERATURE BY PRESSING THE TEMPERATURE BUTTON.
EN “DEGREE OF SOILING” BUTTON By selecting this button (active only on COTTON and MIXED FIBRES programmes) there is a choice of 3 levels of wash intensity, depending on how much the fabrics are soiled. Once the programme has been selected the indicator light will automatically show the minimum level required for that programme. Pressing the button increases the duration of the wash cycle, and adjusts the wash settings accordingly.
EN “AQUAPLUS” BUTTON By pressing this button you can activate a special new wash cycle in the Colourfast and Mixed Fabrics programs, thanks to the new Sensor System. This option treats with care the fibres of garments and the delicate skin of those who wear them. The load is washed in a much larger quantity of water and this, together with the new combined action of the drum rotation cycles, where water is filled and emptied, will give you garments which have been cleaned and rinsed to perfection.
EN DRYING PROGRAMME SELECTION BUTTON With the programme selector not in the OFF position, press the button to select the required drying programme; an indicator will light to display the drying result selected each time you press the button. To cancel the selection before the start of a drying programme, press the button repeatedly until the indicators go out or return the programme selector to the OFF position.
EN START BUTTON Press to start the selected cycle. M NOTE: FEW SECONDS AFTER THE START THE WASH CYCLE WILL BEGIN. DURING THE FIRST 4 MINUTES OF THE WASH CYCLE, THE KG DETECTOR (ACTIVE ONLY ON COTTON AND SYNTHETICS PROGRAMMES) WILL WEIGH THE CLOTHES AND UPDATE THE MAXIMUM WASH TIME REMAINING ON THE DISPLAY EVERY FIVE SECONDS UNTIL THE WEIGHT HAS BEEN DETERMINED. WHILE THIS FUNCTION IS OPERATING THE “Kg DETECTOR” INDICATOR IS ON.
EN “DIGITAL” DISPLAY The display’s indicator system allows you to be constantly informed about the status of the machine: O { { 8 6 { 5 4 { 1 { 2 1) WASH TEMPERATURE When a programme is selected the relevant indicator will light up to show the recommended wash temperature. The Temperature button can be used to decrease or increase the temperature of your chosen wash cycle. Each time the button is pressed, the new temperature level is shown on the Wash Temperature Indicator.
EN 6 6)Kg DETECTOR Indicator Available on Cotton and Synthetic cycles, during the first 4 minutes of the cycle the intelligent sensor will weigh the laundry and adjust the cycle time, water and electricity consumption accordingly. } 7) DEGREE OF SOILING When a programme is selected the relevant indicator will light up to show the minimum possible degree of soiling. Selecting a greater degree of soiling using the special button will cause the corresponding indicator to light up.
TABLE OF PROGRAMMES PROGRAMME SELECTOR ON: PROGRAM FOR: WEIGHT RECOMMENDED MAX TEMP. kg °C MAX TEMP.
Please read these notes When washing heavily soiled laundry it is recommended the load is reduced to 4 kg maximum. Information for the test laboratories (Ref. EN 50229 Standards) Washing Use the programme ** with the maximum degree of soiling selected, maximum spin speed and a temperature of 60°C. Programme recommended also for test with a lower temperature. Drying First drying with 5kg (the load consist: pillowcases and hand-towels) selecting the cotton drying programme ( ) cupboard dry ( ).
EN CHAPTER 8 SELECTION For the various types of fabrics and various degrees of dirt the washing machine has different programme bands according to: wash cycle, temperature and lenght of cycle (see table of washing cycle programmes). RESISTANTS FABRICS The programmes have been designed for a maximum wash and the rinses, with spin intervals, ensure perfect rinsing. The final spin gives more efficient removal of water.
EN SPECIAL “HAND WASH” This washing machine also has a gentle Hand Wash programme cycle. This programme allows a complete washing cycle for garments specified as “Hand Wash only” on the fabric care label. The programme has a temperature of 30°C and concludes with 3 rinses and a slow spin. SPECIAL “RINSE” PROGRAMME This programme carries out three rinses with a intermediate spin (which can be reduced or excluded by using the correct button). It can be used for rinsing any type of fabric, eg.
EN RAPID PROGRAMME The Rapid programme allows a washing cycle to be completed in just 14 minutes! This programme is particularly suited to slightly dirty cottons and mixed fabrics. Using the Degree of soiling button on the Rapid cycle will enable you to select either a 14, 30 or 44 minute wash cycle. When selecting the rapid programme, please note that we recommend you use only 20% of the recommended quantities shown on the detergent pack.
EN CHAPTER 9 DETERGENT DRAWER The detergent draw is split into 3 compartments: - the compartment labelled "1" is for prewash detergent; - the compartment ✿ labelled “ ” is for special additives, fabric softeners, fragrances, starch, brighteners etc; - the compartment labelled "2" is for main wash detergent. NOTE: SOME DETERGENTS ARE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE. FOR THESE, WE RECOMMEND YOU USE THE SPECIAL DISPENSER WHICH IS PLACED IN THE DRUM. NOTE: ONLY PUT LIQUID PRODUCTS IN THE COMPARTMENT LABELLED “✿”.
EN CHAPTER 10 THE PRODUCT IMPORTANT: When washing heavy rugs, bed spreads and other heavy articles, it is advisable not to spin. To be machine-washed, woollen garments and other articles in wool must bear the “Machine Washable Label”. IMPORTANT: When sorting articles ensure that: - there are no metal objects in the washing (e.g. brooches, safety pins, pins, coins etc.). - cushion covers are buttoned, zips and hooks are closed, loose belts and long tapes on dressing gowns are knotted.
EN CHAPTER 11 CUSTOMER AWARENESS A guide environmentally friendly and economic use of your appliance. MAXIMISE THE LOAD SIZE Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the recommended maximum load size. Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads. DO YOU NEED TO PRE-WASH? For heavily soiled laundry only! SAVE detergent, time, water and between 5 to 15% energy consumption by NOT selecting Prewash for slight to normally soiled laundry.
EN WASHING VARIABLE CAPACITY This washing machine automatically adapts the level of the water to the type and quantity of washing. In this way it is also possible to obtain a “personalized” wash from an energy saving point of view. This system gives a decrease in energy consumption and a sensible reduction in washing times. EXAMPLE: A net bag should be used for particularly delicate fabrics.
EN Warning: If there is any break in the power supply while the machine is operating, a special memory stores the selected programme and,when the power is restored, it continues where it left off. ● When the programme has ended the word “End” will appear on the display ● Wait for the door lock to be released (about 2 minutes after the programme has finished). ● Switch off the machine by turning the programme selector to the “OFF” position. ● Open the door and remove the laundry.
EN CHAPTER 12 DRYING DON’T DRY GARMENTS MADE FROM FOAM RUBBER OR FLAMMABLE MATERIALS. IMPORTANT: THIS DRYER CAN ONLY BE USED FOR LAUNDRY WHICH HAS BEEN WASHED AND SPIN DRIED. WARNING: Indications given are general, therefore some practice is needed for the best drying results. We recommend setting a lower drying time than indicated, when first using, so as to establish the degree of dryness required.
EN MAX 5 kg DRYING CYCLE ● Open door. ● Fill with up to 5 kg - in case of large items (e.g. sheets) or very absorbent items (e.g. towels or jeans), it is a good idea to reduce the load. ● Close door. ● Turn programme dial to cotton. ● Select the degree of dryness that you require. This ranges from Extra Dry ( ) for bath towels and bathrobes, through Cupboard Dry ( ) for items that will be put away without ironing, to iron dry ( ) that leaves the laundry suitable for ironing.
