A PRE-WASH IS PROGRAMMED.
DETERGENT DISPENSER
The detergent dispenser is divided into 4 compartments:
• Compartment I, is for prewash powder detergent. The recommended quantity is
60 gm of detergent (for 5 kg of laundry).
• Compartment II, is for wash powder detergent. The recommended quantity is 120
gm of detergent (for 5 kg of laundry).
• The compartment is for bleach. The recommended quantity is 7 cl.
• The compartment is for fabric conditioners, scenting agents and special
additives. The recommended quantity is 5 cl.
The detergent compartment has two guidance lines:

AUTOMATIC VARIABLE CAPACITY – FUZZY LOGIC ELECTRONICS
This machine has electronics that automatically process all stages of the wash to
ensure exceptional results and at the same time save you time and money.
Once a programme has been selected, the machine optimises the following elements
depending on the wash load and type of fabric:
-quantity of water and power consumption
-wash time
-drum rotation rate
-rinse efficiency
The washing machine also:
-detects suds and increases the amount of rinse water if necessary
-adjusts spin speed according to load distribution, thus forestalling any imbalance in
the mechanism.

PROGRAMME SELECTION
Select as follows:
• Check the programme table and set the desired programme using selector
(A)
• Select the options as permitted: the options available via the keys depend on
which programme is selected. If a key flashes when pressed, the options it offers are
not available. If it remains lit, they are. Options can be seen on the display (V).
• Press the Start/ Pause button. The door lock lamp will light up and the display will
show three dashes (- - -) and then the average duration of the programme selected.
After 10-15 minutes, during which time the water temperature, amount of washing,
etc. are determined, the display will show the time remaining to the end of the wash
cycle.
• Because the machine is electronic, the programme may take up to one minute to
commence. Its fuzzy logic programming technology gives this machine smart
monitoring capabilities, enabling it to adapt water levels, washing rates and spin
speeds with no further intervention by the user.
NOTE: A special memory unit stores the programme choice in case of power failure, so that
the machine will resume washing at the point where it left off when power is restored.
END OF CYCLE: At the end of the cycle the lights go out and the display reads (0 0 0). After
2 minutes, the display begins to flash. This means that the washing can be removed.
Press Start/ Pause and set the control to OFF.
