Note: Cycle option buttons should be selected before

AQUAPLUS function D
Pressing this button activates a special new wash cycle in the Cotton and Mixed
Fabrics programs, thanks to a new Sensor System. This option treats the fibers of
garments with care and therefore is a useful feature for people with delicate skin.
The load is washed in a much larger quantity of water and this, together with a
specialised combined action of the drum rotation cycles, where water is filled and
emptied, will ensure your garments have been cleaned and rinsed to perfection. The
amount of water in the wash is increased so that the detergent dissolves perfectly,
ensuring an efficient cleaning action. The amount of water is also increased during the
rinse procedure so as to remove all traces of detergent from the fibers.
This function has been specifically designed for people with delicate and sensitive
skin, for whom even a very small amount of detergent can cause irritation or allergy.
You can also use this function for children’s clothing and for delicate fabrics in general,
or when washing garments made of toweling, where the fibers tend to absorb a
greater quantity of detergent.
To ensure the best performance for your wash, this function is always activated on the
Delicates and Woolens/Hand wash programs.
“COLD WASH” function E
By pressing this button it is possible to convert every program into a cold washing one,
without modifying other settings (water level, times, etc...).

“DELAY START” button F
This button allows you to to delay the start of the cycle for up to 24 hours.
To delay the start use the following procedure:
Set the required program.
Press the “Delay Start” button once to activate it (h00 appears on the display) and
then press it again to set a 1 hour delay (h01 appears on the display); the pre-set
delay increases by 1 hour each time the button is pressed, until h24 appears on the
display, at which point pressing the button again will reset the delay start to zero.
Confirm by pressing the “START/PAUSE” button (the light on the display starts to
flash). The countdown will begin and when it has finished the program will start
automatically.
It is possible to cancel the delay start function with the following procedure:
Press and hold the button for 5 seconds until the display shows the settings for the
program selected.
At this stage it is possible to start the program previously selected by pressing the
“START/PAUSE” button or to cancel the process by setting the selector to the OFF
position and then selecting another program.
The spin cycle is very important to remove as much water as possible from the laundry
without damaging the fabrics. You can adjust the spin speed of the machine to suit your
needs.
By pressing this button, it is possible to reduce the maximum speed, and if you wish, the
spin cycle can be cancelled.
To reactivate the spin cycle you can press the button until you reach the spin speed you
would like to set.
To help protect your fabrics, it is not possible to increase the spin speed above
the speed automatically set by the wash program.
It is possible to modify the spin speed at any time without pausing the machine.

“DIGITAL” Display H
The display’s indicator system allows you to be constantly informed of the status of the
washing machine:
1) SPIN SPEED
Once the program has been selected, the maximum spin speed allowed for that
program appears on the display. Pressing the spin button will reduce the speed by
100 rpm each time the button is pressed. The minimum speed allowed is 400 rpm, or
it is possible to omit the spin cycle by pressing the spin button repeatedly.
2) DELAY START LIGHT
This flashes when the delayed start has been activated.
3) “DOOR SECURITY” indicator light
The “Door Security” indicator light is illuminated when the door is fully closed and
the machine is ON. When "Start/Pause" is pressed on the machine with the door
closed the indicator will flash momentarily and then illuminate.
If the door is not closed the indicator will continue to flash.
A special safety setting prevents the door from being opened immediately after the
end of the cycle. Please wait for 2 minutes after the wash cycle has finished and the
“Door Security” light has gone out before opening the door. At the end of the cycle
turn the program selector to "OFF".
4) CYCLE DURATION
When a program is selected the display automatically shows the cycle duration,
which can vary depending on the options selected.
Once the program has started the display will indicate the time remaining to the end
of the wash.
The appliance calculates the time to the end of the selected program based upon a
standard loading. During the cycle, the appliance corrects the time based on the size
and composition of the load.
