the chosen programme (in hours and minutes)

spin speed indication corresponding to the 
selected programme lights up.

“Easy Ironing” button
 Can be used together with “Cotton”, “Synthetics” 
and “Daily ” programmes to make ironing easier.

spun very soft.“Prewash” button
 Only for heavily soiled loads (for example sand, 
granular dirt) sensible. The cycle time increases 
approximately 15 min.
“Intensive Rinse” button
 More water and a longer time in rinse cycle is added.
 This option is particularly suitable for areas with 
very soft water, washing baby linen and helps 
people with allergies.
“Rinse Hold” button
 The laundry remains in the last rinse water 
without progressing to the final spin cycle to avoid 
creasing and prevent colours from changing.
 This option is particularly recommended for the 
programme “Synthetics”, “Daily ” and “Delicates”.
 This function is particularly useful if you want to 
postpone spinning to a later time, or if you want 
to drain only.
Note: The programme stops to “Rinse Hold” at 
the time the “Rinse Hold” light in the programme 
sequence indication is on.
Terminate the “Rinse Hold” option:
 Press the “Rinse Hold” button again; the 
programme will terminate automatically with the 
final spin cycle for the present wash programme.
 If you do not wish to spin the clothes, turn  the 
programme selector knob counterclockwise to 
the “Drain” programme and press the 
“Start/Pause” button again when the indication 
next to it is flashing.CONSUMPTION DATA

Prewash cycle might increase programme duration. Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in compliance 
with Standard IEC 60 456. Consumption data in the home may vary with respect to the values in the table in relation to the 
water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of wash.
* The remaining time indicator can similarly deviate from the values in the table, because it takes into account the household 
conditions applicable at that time.
** To reduce the water temperature, some cold water is added at the end of the main wash cycle, before the pump drains the 
water out.ADD DETERGENTS, CLOSE THE DOOR
