Here I’m in command
Making the right choice is important. And it’s easy.
Programme selector knob
and programmed start
It is used to select the wash
programme.
Before setting anything, press
the on/off button (H). Lamp I
will begin to flash.
The chosen programme is visible
through the window M.
Remember that the knob can
only be turned in a clockwise
direction.
To select the programmes, make
sure the mark situated on
window M is aligned with the
symbol/number corresponding to
the desired programme for at
least 5 seconds. After these 5
seconds, the setting is accepted,
lamp I stops flashing (staying lit)
and the wash cycle begins. If you
want to interrupt the programme
in progress or to set a new one,
select one of the symbols
(Stop/Reset) and wait for 5
seconds: when the cancellation
has been accepted, lamp I will
flash.
You can use this knob to delay
the washing machine’s operation:
select one of the four positions
for programmed start and wait for
5 seconds. This is when the
setting has been accepted (lamp
i stops flashing and stays lit) and
you can select the programme
you require.
Pilot lamp 1 has a particular
flashing action (2 seconds lit and
4 seconds off) to indicate that the
delayed start has been set.
During this phase, it is possible
to open the door and modify the
washing load.
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).
The detergent dispenser is here.

rature in the recommended

Detergent dispenser
It is divided into three
compartments:
1. Detergent for pre-wash;
2. Detergent for the main cycle
wash;
3. Fabric conditioner.
Anti-crease
This button allows you to
interrupt a programme (on
symbol ) keeping the washing
soaking in water before the spin
cycle. It is a very useful button
in particular because it can be
used for delicates and synthetics.
It is only to be used with wash
program-mes for synthetic
fabrics, silk and curtains when it
is impossible for you to take the
washing out immediately. Before
opening the washing machine
door, finish the wash cycle as
