Using The Delay Start Function; How To Change The Delay Time - Hitachi BD-S5500 Operating Instructions Manual

Using the DELAY START Function

The delay time indicates the time at which the operation will finish.
For example, if you want the operation to finish three hours later, set the delay time to 3 hours.
The setting changes with each press of the <DELAY START> button.
Operation finishes 3 hours later
The [BLANKET], [DELICATE] and [TUB CLEAN] wash programs and the <<DRY>> operations
cannot be delayed.
To check the delay time:
To cancel the delay:
To change the delay time: Press the <OFF> button to turn off the power, and start over.
To add laundry:
The time at which the operation finishes may vary depending on the volume and type of laundry,
amount of water, water and air temperature, and drainage conditions.
Do not wash laundry with items that are likely to bleed color using delayed operations.
If the power plug is disconnected or a power outage occurs, the delay will be canceled.
To reduce wrinkles, hang laundry as soon as possible after the operation finishes.
The <PAUSE> button will be disabled until the <DELAY START> operation starts.
Remove the laundry as soon as possible after the operation finishes.
Leaving the laundry inside after the operation finishes can result in odors.
We recommend using the Fluffy Clothes function for delayed <<WASH DRY>> operations.
Do not add too much laundry after setting the delay time.
Doing so may reduce washing results and result in uneven drying.
Even if you set a delay, the operation for large wash loads may start immediately after you press the
<START> button due to the longer operation time required for large loads.
