WARNING: before you use the washer-dryer for the first

time, run a wash cycle with detergent and no laundry, using

the 90° cottons cycle without pre-wash.

1. SWITCH THE MACHINE ON. Press the button.

All the indicator lights will illuminate for 1 second; the

indicator light corresponding to the button will then

remain lit in a fixed manner and the START/PAUSE

indicator light will flash slowly.

2. LOAD THE LAUNDRY. Open the porthole door.

Load the laundry, making sure you do not exceed the

maximum load value indicated in the table of wash

cycles on the following page.

3. MEASURE OUT THE DETERGENT. Pull out the

detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into

the relevant compartments as described in “Description

of the machine”.

4. CLOSE THE PORTHOLE DOOR.

5. SELECT THE PROGRAMME. Turn the WASH CYCLE

SELECTOR KNOB right or left, until you have selected

the desired wash cycle. A temperature and spin speed

is set for each wash cycle; these may be adjusted.

6. CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE. Use the relevant

buttons on the control panel:

Modify the temperature.

The machine automatically displays the maximum

temperature values set for the selected cycle, or the

most recently-used settings if they are compatible with

the selected cycle. The temperature can be decreased

by pressing the button, until the cold wash (

) setting is reached. If these buttons are pressed again,

the maximum values are restored.

! Exception: if the “Cottons” programme is selected, the

temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C.

Setting the drying cycle

The first time the button is pressed, the machine will

automatically select the maximum drying cycle which is

compatible with the selected wash cycle. Subsequent

presses will decrease the drying level and then the

drying time, until the cycle is excluded completely ( ).

If these buttons are pressed again, the maximum values

are restored.

Drying may be set as follows:

A - Based on a set time period: between 20 and 180

minutes.

B- Based on the desired laundry dryness level:

Iron (L1): suitable for clothes which will need ironing

afterwards. the remaining dampness softens creases,

making them easier to remove.

Hanger (L2): ideal for clothes which do not need to be

dried fully.

Cupboard (L3): suitable for laundry which can be put

back in a cupboard without being ironed.

Extra (L4): suitable for garments which need to be dried

completely, such as sponges and bathrobes.

If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much

greater than the maximum stated load (see adjacent

table), perform the wash cycle, and when the cycle

is complete, divide the garments into groups and put

some of them back in the drum.

At this point, follow the instructions provided for a

“Drying only” cycle. Repeat this procedure for the

remainder of the load. A cooling-down period is always

added to the end of each drying cycle.

Drying only

Use the cycle selector knob to select a drying cycle ( -

- ) in accordance with the type of fabric. The desired

drying level or time may also be set using the DRYING

button .

Set a delayed start.

Press the button until you have reached the desired

delay time. During the setting process, the delay time is

shown on the display and the symbol flashes.

After selecting a delayed start time, the fixed symbol

and the cycle duration will appear on the display. Press

the button once to display the selected delay time. To

remove the delayed start option, press the button until

the display shows the text OFF; the symbol will

disappear.

! Once the START/PAUSE button has been pressed, the

time delay may only be decreased.

Modify the cycle settings.

Press the OPTION buttons to customise the wash cycle

in accordance with your own requirements.

• Press the button to activate the option; the

corresponding indicator light will switch on.

• Press the button again to disable the option; the

indicator light will switch off.

! If the selected option is not compatible with the

selected wash cycle, this incompatibility will be signalled

by the flashing of the indicator light and a sound alert (3

beeps); the option will not be activated.

! If the selected option is not compatible with another

option that has been selected previously, the indicator

light corresponding to the first option selected will

flash and only the second option will be activated; the

indicator light corresponding to the button will remain lit

in a constant manner.

7. START THE PROGRAMME. Press the START/PAUSE

button. The corresponding indicator light remains lit in

a fixed manner and the porthole door locks (the

DOOR LOCKED indicator light illuminates). The icons

corresponding to the wash cycle phases will light up

during the cycle to indicate which phase is currently in

progress.

To change a wash cycle once it has already started, pause

the washer-dryer by pressing the START/PAUSE button;

then select the desired cycle and press the START/PAUSE

button again. To open the door during a wash cycle,

press the START/PAUSE button; if the DOOR LOCKED

indicator light is switched off you may open the door.

Press the START/PAUSE button again to restart the wash

cycle from the point at which it was interrupted.

8. THE END OF THE WASH CYCLE. This is indicated

by the illuminated text END. The porthole door may be

opened immediately. If the START/PAUSE indicator light

is flashing, press the button to end the cycle. Open the

door, unload the laundry and switch off the machine.

! If you wish to cancel a cycle which has already begun,

press and hold the button until the cycle stops and the

machine switches off.
