How to run a wash cycle?

Using for the first time

• Ensure the electrical and water con-

nections comply with the installation

ensure that the drum is properly closed :

• locking button A released.

Proportioning of detergents

Your washing machine has been desi-

gned to reduce your water and deter-

gent consumption. You can therefore

reduce the amounts recommended by

detergent manufacturers.

Pour the amount of washing powder into

the washing and prewash com-

partments if you have selected the

“prewash” option. Pour fabric softener

into the compartment if necessary .

If you use another detergent type, refer

to the section “detergents and

additives” in the washing guide.

Selection of desired programme

You can find the right programme for

different types of washing in the

programme table (see “Programme

table”).

Turn the programme selector to the

required programme. The “Start/Pause”

pushbutton flashes green.

If you turn the programme selector to

another programme while a cycle is in

progress, the appliance will ignore the

new selected programme. The “Start/

Pause” pushbutton flashes red for a few

seconds.
