the chapter “Detergent and Additives” in your Instructions for Use.

of the 
“Start (Pause)” button   blinks. The 
temperature and 
spin speed indicated on the display can be altered by pressing the 
“Temperature” button   or the “Variable spin” button .
When the combination of programme and additional option(s) is 
not possible, the indication lights switch off automatically. 
Unsuitable combinations of options are deselected automatically.
“Prewash” button
 Only for heavily soiled loads (for example sand, granular dirt) 
sensible. Increases the cycle time by approximately 15 min.
 Do not use liquid detergent for the main wash when activating 
the “Prewash” option.
“Clean+” button
 Choose this option if you use an in-wash additive for stain removal 
(powder, for example “Vanish”) - it will optimize the additive’s 
efficiency to get better wash performance and stain removal.
 Selectable for programmes “Cotton” and “Synthetics”; choose 
temperature of 30 or 40°C and use with maximum load.
 Add an appropriate amount of in-wash additive for stain 
removal (powder) to the main wash chamber, together with 
your detergent (only use powder detergent with this option). 
Respect the manufacturer’s dosing instructions.
 Prolongs the programme by approx. 10 to 15 minutes.
 Appropriate for use of stain removers and bleaches on oxygen 
basis. 
Chlorine or perborate bleaches must not be used!“Easy ironing” button
 Can be used together with “Cotton”, “Synthetics” and “Daily 
load” programmes to make ironing easier.
 Increases the water quantity and the clothes are spun very gently.
“Intensive rinse” button
 More water is added and rinse cycle is prolonged.
 This option is particularly suitable for areas with very soft water or 
for washing baby linen, and helps people with allergies.
“ Variable spin” button
 Every programme has a predefined spin speed.
 Press the button to set another spin speed.
 If spin speed “0” is selected, the final spinning is cancelled but 
intermediate spin peaks remain during rinse. The water is 
drained out only.
 If you select “Rinse hold”  , the laundry remains in the last 
rinse water without progressing to the final spin cycle, to avoid 
creasing and prevent colours from changing. To activate the 
“Rinse hold”, press the “Variable spin” button repeatedly until the 
“Rinse hold” symbol   on the display lights up.
- The wash programme stops to “Rinse hold” when the 
“Rinse hold” symbol   on the display blinks; the light of 
“Start (Pause)” blinks as well.
- To terminate the “Rinse hold” by draining the water, 
without any spinning, press the 
“Start (Pause)” button.
- To terminate the “Rinse hold” by spinning the laundry, press 
the “Variable spin” button to select the desired spin speed 
and then 
“Start (Pause)” to start the spin cycle.
- Do not leave the laundry to soak for too long in the “Rinse hold”.
If there is a programme setting which you use frequently, the 
appliance offers the possibility to save one setting for each 
programme so that it can be used again by just pushing one button.CONSUMPTION DATA

Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in compliance with Standard IEC/EN 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 time indicated on the display can deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the operation 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 out.
