WARNING: before you use the washing machine 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 and the

text AQUALTIS will appear on the display; the indicator

light corresponding to the button will then remain lit in

a constant manner and the START/PAUSE indicator light

will flash.

2. SELECT THE PROGRAMME. Turn the PROGRAMME

KNOB left or right, until the required programme has been

selected; the name of the programme will appear on the

display. A temperature and spin speed is set for each

programme; these may be adjusted. The cycle duration

will also appear on the display.

3. 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.

4. 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”.

5. CLOSE THE PORTHOLE DOOR.

6. CUSTOMISE THE WASH CYCLE. Use the relevant

buttons on the control panel:

Modify the temperature and/or spin speed.

The machine automatically displays the maximum

temperature and spin speed 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 “OFF” setting is reached. The spin speed may

be progressively reduced by pressing the button,

until it is completely excluded “OFF”. 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 a delayed start.

To set a delayed start for the selected cycle, press the

corresponding button repeatedly until the required delay

period has been reached. During the setting procedure,

the delay period and the text “Starts in:” will be displayed,

along with the flashing symbol. After the delayed start

has been set, the symbol will remain fixed on the display,

which will also indicate the duration of the selected cycle

with the text “Ends in:” and the cycle duration. Press the

DELAYED START button just once to display the delay

time set previously.

After the countdown has begun, the display will show the

text “Starts in:” and the delay period. Once the set delay

time has elapsed, the machine will begin its cycle and the

display will show “Ends in:” and the time remaining until

the end of the cycle. To remove the delayed start option,

press the button until the display shows the text OFF; the

symbol will disappear.

Modify the cycle settings.

• Press the button to activate the option; the name

of the option will then appear on the display and

the corresponding indicator light will illuminate.

• Press the button again to deactivate the option; the

name of the option will then appear on the display

followed by the text OFF, and the corresponding

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.

! The options may affect the recommended load value

and/or the duration of the cycle.

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 washing machine 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.

Bag for quilts, curtains and delicate garments

The Aqualtis washing machine makes it easier for you

to wash even the most valuable and delicate garments

in complete confidence thanks to the special bag which

protects the laundry (this is supplied with the machine).

We recommend that the bag is used every time you wash

quilts and padded items with an outer layer made using

synthetic material.
