[. . . ] Press the button; the START/PAUSE indicator light will flash slowly in a green colour. Load the laundry, making sure you do not exceed the maximum load value indicated in the table of programmes and wash cycles on the following page. Pull out the detergent dispenser drawer and pour the detergent into the relevant compartments as described in “Detergents and laundry”. Use the WASH CYCLE SELECTOR knob to select the desired wash cycle. A temperature and spin speed is set for each wash cycle; these values may be adjusted. The duration of the cycle will appear on the display. Use the relevant buttons: 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 (the “OFF” setting). If these buttons are pressed again, the maximum values are restored. Exception: if the 4 programme is selected, the temperature can be increased up to a value of 90°C (+ prewash). 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 (“OFF”). Drying may be set as follows: A- Based on the desired laundry dryness level: Iron “A1”: suitable for clothes which will need ironing afterwards. The remaining dampness softens creases, making them easier to remove. Hanger “A2”: ideal for clothes which do not need to be dried fully. Cupboard “A3”: suitable for laundry which can be put back in a cupboard without being ironed. Extra “A4”: suitable for garments which need to be dried completely, such as sponges and bathrobes. B - Based on a set time period: between 30 and 180 minutes. If your laundry load to be washed and dried is much greater than the maximum stated load, 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.
