•Adding or removing an item during the cycle
(impossible during spin):
Important :
Before starting your machine,
check that the power cable is plugged
in and the water tap is open. Also
ensure that the drum doors are closed
correctly and the machine’s lid is shut.
During the “End of Cycle” phase, any
action on one of the controls (the
selectors or the buttons) returns you to
“Programming” mode. As a safety
measure, when the cycle is over, we
recommend that you unplug the power
cable and turn off the water tap.
For more details on the various functions, please refer to the sections "DETAILS OF THE PROGRAMMES" and "DETAILS OF THE OPTIONS".
Information :
After a power failure, when the power is restored, the washing cycle automatically resumes at the point where it was interrupted.
•Cancelling while programming, washing or during a pause:
— Set the selector to the “OFF” position.
This can be done at any time during the cycle or during programming, or even during a pause.
NB :
- In all cases, after cancelling you must reprogramme everything from the start.
- If you have cancelled during the washing phase, remember to empty the water, if necessary.

Set the selector to the “OFF” position.
You can now open the lid and remove your washing.
