laundry. By pressing the DELAY START button the
soak time can be prolonged up to 10 hours max. After
this time the wash cycle will automatically start.
This function is not available for wool and hand-wash

The soak ends with a short spin at 650 rpm in
programmes for cotton and synthetic fabrics, whereas
in the programme for delicate fabrics the water is only
drained.
• Extra Quick: select this option for laundry that is
only slightly soiled (not for Wool and Handwash
programme).
The washing time will be reduced according to the
type of fabric and the selected temperature.
The Prewash, the Outdoor Sport and the Extra Quick
options cannot be selected together.
7 OPTIONS button
Press this button to select the following options:
• Super Rinse: this option can be selected with all
programmes except the wool programme and hand
wash. The machine will add 2 rinses to the selected
programme. This option is recommended for people
who are allergic to detergents, and in areas where the
water is very soft.
• 40° AA: this option can be selected for cottons and
synthetics lightly or normally soiled with a
temperature of 40°C or higher.
If you select 40°C together with option 40° AA, the
machine will prolong the time at 40°C in the washing
phase. On cotton programme this will allow an A class
in energy efficiency and washing performance to be
achieved.
If you select 95°C, 60°C or 50°C and press the 40°
AA button, the washing temperature will be reduced
and the washing time will be prolonged.
The Super Rinse and the 40° AA options cannot be
selected together by means of the relevant button.
8 Display
The following pieces of information are shown on the
display:
• Three blinking dashes, when a programme is
cancelled by means of the Skip Reset button.
The three blinking dashes will also appear when you
press the On/Off button to switch the machine on, if the
previously selected cycle has been erased.
•
Duration of washing programme in hours and
minutes, after you have selected a programme.
While the programme is running (after you have
pressed the Start/Pause button), the displayed time
value decreases by one unit every minute.
• The washing machine has stopped with water in the
tub, at the end of a programme with the Rinse Hold
option: this is indicated by a flashing zero.
• The washing machine has completed the
programme: this is indicated by a blinking zero. The
zero will reappear when you switch the washing
machine on, unless the previous programme has been
erased by means of the Skip Reset button.
Important!
The first time you use the washing machine, when
you switch it on, it may display a blinking zero and give
an audible warning signal. This is due to the fact that the
washing machine has performed a washing cycle during
the manufacturer’s inspection tests, and this cycle has
not been erased after its completion.
