3. HOW TO DO A WASH ?
Before the first wash in your washing machine, we re-
commend that you should do a preliminary wash at
90°C with detergent but without any washing to clean
the tub.
3.1. 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.

3.2. Proportioning of detergents
Your washing machine was designed to reduce water
and detergent consumption, therefore reduce the do-
ses recommended by detergent manufacturers.
Pour the powder detergent dose into the wash com-
partment
and into the prewash compartment
you chose the «prewash» option. Pour in the softener
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 gui-
de.
3.3. Choice of the required program-
me
The programmes table will tell you which is the appro-
priate programme for your washing type (see § 4).
Warning : before you close
the cover of your washing
machine, make sure that the
drum door is properly closed:
• the two flaps latched
together,
• the locking button A exten-
ded.
Put the programme selector
onto the required program-
me ; the lights correspon-
ding to the phases making
up the programme will light
up.
3.4. Choice of the required option
Press the required pushbutton(s) ; the corresponding
lights come on. When you press again, the lights go off.
When one of these options is not compatible with the
chosen programme, the corresponding light will flash
for a few seconds (see programme table).
3.4.1. «Spin» pushbutton
This pushbutton allows to choose between two func-
tions :
•
Spinning speed reduction 850/450 function
This function reduces the spinning speed to 450 rpm on
all washing programmes.
•
Rinse hold function
If you use this function, the tub remains full of water at
the end of the last rinse to prevent the washing from be-
coming creased if it is not taken out of the drum as soon
as the washing machine is stopped.
3.4.2. «Prewash» pushbutton
The washing machine does a prewash at 30°C
maximum. The prewash finishes with a brief spinning
for cotton and synthetic programs, and by a draining for
if
delicates programs.
3.4.3. «Quick wash» pushbutton
If you select this function, the wash time is reduced
depending on which program you chose.
3.4.4. «Super rinse» pushbutton
This option adds two rinses on Cotton, Synthetics and
Delicates programs. It is advised for allergic people to
detergent products and in areas with fresh water.
3.5. Starting the programme
After you chose the washing programme,
press the Start/Pause pushbutton to start
the cycle. The corresponding light stays on.
It is normal that the programme selector
does not turn during the cycle.
When the washing cycle begins, the
«washing» light is on.

The
various
options
should be chosen after
the programme has been
displayed
and
before
pressing the Start/Pause
pushbutton.
