pause the washing machine by pressing theSTART/

PAUSE button, then press the SKIP RESET button

repeatedly, until the display shows three blinking

dashes.

13.How to Open the door during the

cycle of a programme

You can open the door, after having set the washing

machine to PAUSE, provided the following conditions

exist:

The washing machine is not in the heating phase

beyond 55°C;

The level of the water is not high;

The drum is not turning.

If these requirements are met, when you pause the

washing machine, the door can be opened instantly.

Should it not be possible to open the door, and should

it be absolutely necessary to do so, switch the ma-

chine off by pressing the ON/OFF button. After ap-

proximately 3 minutes, you can open the door instantly.

Pay attention to the level and temperature of the

water in the washing machine!

When you close the door and press the ON/OFF but-

ton again, the washing machine will resume the

programmefromthepointwhere it had been interrupted.

14. End of programme

option , the light of the START/PAUSE button goes out,

the zero on the display begins to flash, the door is

locked and RINSE HOLD or NIGHT CYCLE light re-

mains lit.

When the programme has been completed, a blinking

zero appears on the display and the audible signal is

given.

Press the SKIP RESET button repeatedly to erase

the programme that has just been carried out. If

you omit to do this, the next time you switch the

washing machine on, the blinking zero will ap-

pear on the display and you will hear the audible

signal.

Press the ON/OFF button to switch the machine off.

The relevant light will go out. Remove the laundry

from the washing machine. Check whether the drum is

completely empty, by rotating it with your hand. The

purpose of this is to prevent any items of laundry

from remaining accidentally in the drum, where they

might get damaged in a subsequent wash (e.g. by

shrinking) or bleed colour into another load of laundry.

We advise you to close the water supply tap and

disconnect the plug from the socket. Leave the door

ajar in order to air the washing machine.
