The washing machine is
equipped with an extra
compartment 

4 (provided as an

accessory) for the bleach, to be
inserted in compartment 1.

Extra Economy
Reduces water consumption
during the rinse cycles. We
recommend that you use this
function only with small laundry
loads, dosing the detergent
proportionally.

Rapid wash
This button reduces the length
of the wash programme by
about  30%. It cannot be used
with special programmes (see
page 28) or those for wool and
silk.

Stain removal (see page 31)
Thanks to this command, the
washing machine will carry out
a more intensive wash that
optimises the  effectiveness of the
liquid additives, thus allowing
more resistant stains to be
removed. When you press the
stain removal button, you cannot
activate the pre-wash.

On-off
When button H is pressed, the
washing machine is switched
on, when it is not the machine
is switched off.
Turning the appliance off
does not cancel the selected
programme.

Here I’m in command

Understanding the control panel

Making the right choice is important. And it’s easy.

Programme selector knob
and programmed start
Use this knob to select the wash
programme.
Turn this knob clockwise only.
To select a programme, you
should turn the knob so that the
symbol/number  of the desired
programme is in line with the
pointer on the knob.
Now press on/off button H
(position 

I

), pilot lamp I will start

flashing.
After 5", the setting will be
accepted, pilot lamp I will stop
flashing (staying lit) and the wash
cycle will begin.
Should you wish to interrupt the
programme in progress or set a
new one, select one of the
symbols 

(Stop/Reset) and wait

5" : when the cancellation has
been accepted, pilot lamp I
flashes, and you can then turn the
appliance off.
You can use this knob to delay
the appliance's operation.
Select one of the four delay time
positions, press the on/off button
H (position 

I

) and wait 5". The

setting has now been accepted
(pilot lamp I stays lit) and you can
select the programme you desire.

Pilot   lamp 

I

  has  a particular

flashing motion  (2" on and 4" off)

to indicate that a delayed   start

has been set.

During this phase, you can open

the appliance door and change

the washing load, should you

wish to do so.

After the wash cycle has been set
and accepted by the washing
machine, turning the knob will
have no effect (except for when
it is on position   Stop/Reset).

Temperature control knob
It is used to set the wash tempe-
rature in the recommended
programme table on pag. 28. It
also allows you to reduce the tem-
perature recommended for the
selected programme, and even to
set a cold wash cycle (

).

Spin exclusion knob
It is used to exclude the spin
cycle (by choosing symbol 

)

or to reduce the spin speed of
the selected programme. The
maximum speed for the four
types of fabric are:

Fabric

Speed

Cotton

800 rpm

Synthetics

800 rpm

Wool

600 rpm

Silk

no

Note: distribution phase will be
carried out at low speed.

Detergent dispenser
It is divided into three
compartments:
1. Detergent for pre-wash;
2. Detergent for the main cycle

wash;

3. Fabric conditioner.

The detergent dispenser with the

additional  bleach compartment

is here.

The on-off lamp
Lamp  I  flashes when the
appliance is switched on and
awaiting a programme to be set.
A steady light means the
appliance has accepted the
selected programme.

The door block lamp
The safety lamp indicates that the
washing machine door is locked
to prevent it from being opened
accidentally. To  avoid  any
damages to lock mechanism,
you must wait for the lamp to
extinguish, before attempting to
open the door which takes around
three minutes.

Anti-crease
This function (represented by the
symbol

) interrupts the wash

programme, keeping the washing
soaking in water before draining.
It is only enabled in programmes
for synthetic fabrics, silk and
cur tains. It is very useful,
because it prevents delicate and
synthetic fabrics from creasing
(for example, when you cannot
take the washing out at the end
of the wash cycle but only a few
hours later). The programme can
be completed by turning knob A
one notch.  In the case of
synthetic fabrics, should you
prefer draining rather than a spin
cycle, turn knob A until you have
selected the symbol 

 (Drain).
