Door Locked indicator The `Door Locked' indicator light is illuminated when the door is fully closed and the machine is on. A special safety device prevents the door from being opened immediately after the end of the cycle. Wait two minutes after the wash cycle has finished for the Door Locked indicator to go out. Then check that there is no water evident in the drum before opening the door. Super Rinse button This option adds more water at the rinsing stage. This can help prevent skin irritation from detergent residue that affects people with particularly sensitive skin. Selecting the Super Rinse button is also recommended when washing heavily soiled fabrics which need a lot of detergent, or when the wash load contains towelling fabrics that have a greater tendency to retain detergent. When selecting the 32 minute wash programme we also recommend you use only 20% of the detergent quantities advised on the pack. Do not use fabric conditioner with this programme. Prewash Cottons Programme 1 can also be used as a Prewash programme. This is particularly useful for heavily soiled loads and can be used independently of any main wash programme. Detergent for this programme should be added to the first compartment of the soap drawer labelled "I" (please refer to The Dispenser section of this manual). We recommend you use only 20% of the quantity used for the main wash programme. 16 Programme Guide Programme Fabric Type Maximum Load Size (kg) 5. 5 Maximum Water Temp (°C) 90 1 Whites and Prewash Whites Coloureds Fast Whites, colourfast fabrics, cotton, linen Whites, cottons, colourfast Cottons, colour fast mixed fabrics Cottons, non-colour fast mixed fabrics Cottons, Linen and mixed fabrics Cottons, Linen and mixed fabrics Mixed and synthetic fabrics, colourfast mixed fabrics Mixed fabrics and synthetics Synthetics, acrylics and coloureds Synthetics and mixed fabrics Synthetics and mixed fabrics Synthetics and delicates Machine washable woollens and synthetic knits Machine washable woollens and synthetic knits Machine washable woollens and synthetic knits Machine washable woollens and synthetic knits Mixed Fabrics 2 3 Cottons 5. 5 5. 5 60 50 4 Coloureds Non-Fast Rinses 5. 5 40 5. 5 - Fast Spin 5. 5 - 5 Mixed Fabrics 2 60 Synthetics 6 7 Coloureds Acrylics 2 2 50 40 Rinses Slow Spin 8 9 Delicates Delicates Woollens 2 2 1 1 40 40 10 Woollens 1 30 Rinses 1 - Slow Spin Quick 1 - Q 32 Minute Wash 2 50 Energy label data based on Colourfast programme tested in accordance with CENELEC EN60456 17 A Typical Wash This section summarises the main points when completing a wash cycle.
