Prewash cycle might increase programme duration. Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in 
compliance with Standard IEC 60 456. Consumption data in the home may vary with respect to the values in the table in 
relation to the water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of wash.
* The remaining time indicator can similarly deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the 
household conditions applicable at that time.
** To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle, before the pump drains the water ou t.Add the detergent as described in the programme 
table or in the chapter “Detergents and Additives” in 
the booklet.
1. Turn the programme selector knob
 to the 
desired programme and temperature.
2. The remaining time display shows the duration of 
the chosen programme (in hours and minutes) 
and after taking some seconds for calculating, 
the pilot lamp of the “Start/Pause”
 button is 
flashing.
3. The programme sequence and the predefined 
spin speed indication corresponding to the 
selected programme lights up.
Selecting any option the indication lights up.
When the combination of programme, additional 
options and temperature is not possible, the 
indication lights switch off automatically. 
Unsuitable combinations of options are 
deselected automatically.“Easy Ironing” button
• Can be used together with Cotton, Synthetics and 
Daily programmes to make ironing easier.
• Increases the water quantity and the clothes are 
spun very soft.
“Eco Wash” button
• The duration of the wash is extended and the 
temperature reduced to save up to 40% of energy 
but maintaining good washing results.
“Prewash” button
• Only for heavily soiled loads (for example sand, 
granular dirt) sensible. The cycle time increases 
approximately 15 min.
“Intensive Rinse” button
• More water and a longer time in rinse cycle is 
added.
• This option is particularly suitable for areas with 
very soft water, washing baby linen and helps 
people with allergies.
“Rinse Hold” button
• The laundry remains in the last rinse water 
without progressing to the final spin cycle to 
avoid creasing and prevent colours from 
changing.
• This option is particularly recommended for the 
programme “Synthetics”, “Daily” and “Delicates”.
• This function is particularly useful if you want to 
postpone spinning to a later time, or if you want 
to drain only.CONSUMPTION DATA
