4. HOW TO DO A WASH?

Before the first wash in your washing machine, we recom-
mend that you should do a preliminary wash at 90°C with
detergent but without any washing to clean the tub.

4.1. Loading the washing

Lift the machine cover.
Open the drum by pressing on the locking button A;
the two flaps automatically separate.
Insert the washing, close the drum and the cover of
your washing machine.

4.2. Proportioning of detergents

Your washing machine was designed to reduce water and
detergent consumption, therefore reduce the doses
recommended by detergent manufacturers.
Pour the powder detergent dose into the wash
compartment
and into the prewash compartment
you chose the «prewash» option. Pour the softener into
the compartment
and Javel water into the compartment
if you wish. If you are using a different type of detergent,
refer to the «detergents and additives» section in the
washing guide.

4.3. Select the desired programme

Turn the programme selector to
choose the desired programme.
The appropriate message will ap-
pear in the display window. The
display window will show the time
the selected programme cycle will
finish, with the calculation based
on the maximum load for each
type of material. The Start/ Pause
button light will start to flash. If you have a small load to
wash, at the start of the cycle the display window will still
show the end of the cycle as if it were a maximum load.
The duration display will be gradually adjusted while the
cycle is running through.
