To	select	or	cancel	the	auxiliary	functions,	the	machine	must	be	at	any	prior	stage	than	the	auxiliary	function	to	be	selected	or	cancelled.	If	the	auxiliary	function	cannot	be	selected	or	cancelled,	light	of	the	relevant	auxiliary	function	will	blink	3	times	to	warn	the	user.
    C Some	combinations	cannot	be	selected	together.	Ex.:	Pre-wash	and	Quick	Wash.	Warning	light	of	the	selected	auxiliary	function	will	light	up.Auxiliary function selectionIf	an	auxiliary	function	that	is	not	compatible	with	the	previously	selected	auxiliary	function	is	chosen,	the	function	selected	first	will	be	cancelled	and	the	last	auxiliary	function	selection	will	remain	active.
    Ex.:	If	you	want	to	select	pre-wash	first	and	then	quick	wash,	pre-wash	will	be	cancelled	and	quick	wash	will	remain	active.
    Auxiliary	function	that	is	not	compatible	with	the	program	cannot	be	selected.	(see,	“Program	Selection	Table”)
    C Auxiliary	function	buttons	may	differ	according	to	the	model	of	your	machine.• PrewashA	pre-wash	is	only	worthwhile	for	heavily	soiled	laundry.	Without	pre-wash	you	save	energy,	water,	detergent	and	time.	Pre-wash	without	detergent	is	recommended	for	lace	and	curtains.
    • Quick WashThis	function	can	be	used	for	“Cottons”	and	“Synthetics”	programs.	It	decreases	the	washing	times	for	lightly	soiled	laundries	and	also	the	number	of	rinsing	steps.
    C	 Recommended	load	capacity	is	half	of	the	maximum	load	capacity	of	the	selected	program.• Rinse PlusThis	function	enables	your	machine	to	make	another	rinsing	in	addition	to	the	one	already	made	after	the	main	wash.	Thus,	the	risk	for	sensitive	skins	(babies,	allergic	skins	and	etc.)	to	be	effected	by	the	minimal	detergent	remnants	on	the	laundry	can	be	reduced.
    • Anti-CreasingWith	this	function,	drum	movement	will	be	lessened	to	prevent	creasing	and	spinning	speed	is	limited.	In	addition,	washing	is	carried	out	at	a	higher	water	level.
    • Rinse HoldIf	you	are	not	going	to	unload	your	clothes	immediately	after	the	program	completes,	you	
    may	use	rinse	hold	function	and	keep	your	laundry	in	the	final	rinsing	water	in	order	to	prevent	them	become	wrinkled	when	there	is	no	water	in	the	machine.	Press	"Start/Pause"	button	after	this	process	if	you	want	to	drain	the	water	without	spinning.	Program	resumes.	Your	machine	drains	the	water	and	program	completes.
    If	you	want	to	spin	your	laundry	that	you	left	in	water:
    -	Adjust	the	spin	speed.
    -	Press	Start/Pause	button
    Program	resumes.	Your	machine	drains	the	water,	spins	the	laundry	and	program	completes.
    In	case	of	selecting	the	auxiliary	function	for	soaking,	your	laundry	will	be	kept	in	detergent	water	before	the	washing	process	starts.	Hence,	stains	that	ingrained	into	the	laundry	can	be	removed	better.
    • Pet hair removalThis	function	helps	you	to	remove	the	pet	hairs	that	remain	on	your	clothes.
    When	this	function	is	selected,	your	machine	adds	pre-wash	and	additional	rinsing	steps	to	the	normal	program	cycle.	Thus,	pet	hairs	are	removed	more	effectively	by	performing	the	washing	with	more	water	(30%).
