Open the door and the drum flaps and unload the machine. TO STOP, RESET A PROGRAMME BEFORE THE END 1. Press the “On/Off” button to start the “Drain” programme. Only open the door when the programme selector is at “STOP” and the door is unlocked (after approximately 1 minute). NOTES AND INDICATIONS FOR USE • After switching your washing machine on, it does not start immediately: it needs some seconds in order to lock the door, fill water and then drum starts turning. • Spinning has an interrupted start-up: the drum starts and stops running several times, to improve spin efficiency and to better balance the laundry. • At the end of the spinning cycle the drum goes on reversing for some minutes: this helps you unloading the laundry. • Do not exceed in detergents dosage: excessive foam formation may prevent spinning. • Your imbalance detection and correction system reduces spin speed or interrupts the spin automatically in case of imbalance load see “troubleshooting guide”. • Your machine has a new, electronicallycontrolled motor: don't be surprised by its sound. • If you want to change the programme during the wash cycle, remember to switch the machine off before turning the programme selector knob. Prewash cycle increases programme duration approximately 15 min. Consumption values were measured in normalized conditions in compliance with standard IEC 60 456. Consumption data in the home may vary with respect to the values in the table in relation to the water supply pressure and temperature, the load and the type of wash. The data on the “Energy Label” refer to the programme “Coloured Cotton 60°C”. [. . . ] “Rinse Hold” button • The laundry remains in the last rinse water, without progressing to the spin cycle to avoid creasing and prevent colours from changing. • This option is especially recommended for the “Synthetics” or “Delicate” programmes. • This option is perfectly suitable if you wish to postpone the spin or you don't wish to spin the clothes. 3.
