Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is supplied with the appliance in order that the new owner can get to know the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings. These warnings have been provided in the interest of safety. You MUST read them carefully before installing or using the appliance. Installation This appliance is heavy. [. . . ] It is possible to change any phase before the programme carries out. Changing the type of fabric or temperature is possible, obviously, only during the washing phase. When you make a change to the fabric or temperature, the washing machine will resume the cycle from the beginning. If it is necessary to drain the water in order to change the programme in progress, proceed as follows: · pause the machine by pressing the START/ PAUSE button; · press the SKIP/RESET button repeatedly, until only the DRAIN light remains lit; · press the START/PAUSE button again. You may now select a new programme and press the START/PAUSE button to start it. 11 How to cancel a programme during a cycle To cancel a programme that is being carried out, · first pause the washing machine by pressing the START/PAUSE button, · then press the SKIP/RESET button repeatedly. 10 12 How to open the lid during the cycle of the programme You can open the lid after having set the washing machine to PAUSE, provided the following conditions exist: We advise you to close the water supply tap and disconnect the plug from the socket. Leave the lid open in order to air the washing machine. · the appliance is not in the heating phase, · the level of the water is not high, · the drum is not turning. If these requirements are met when you pause the washing machine, the DOOR light goes out and the lid can be opened. Should it not be possible to open the lid, and should it be absolutely necessary to do so, switch the appliance off by pressing the ON/OFF button. After approximately 2 minutes, you can open the lid. Pay attention to the level and temperature of the water in the washing machine!When you close the lid and press the ON/OFF button again, the washing machine will resume the programme from the point where it had been interrupted. 13 End of programme At the end of the programme, the washing machine stops automatically. If you had selected the RINSE HOLD option, the START/PAUSE button light flashes to indicate that the water must be drained (page 8). Note: When you switch the machine on, if you must erase the previously performed programme, it is also sufficient to press the FABRICS button and select a new programme. Press the ON/OFF button to switch the machine off. Remove the laundry from the washing machine. Check whether the drum is completely empty, by rotating it with your hand. The purpose of this is to prevent any items of laundry from remaining accidentally in the drum, where they might get damaged in a subsequent wash (e. g. by shrinking) or bleed colour into another load of laundry. 11 Washing Hints Do NOT overload the machine.
