trol knob to the required number and pull out the control knob. It should be
noted that this knob freewheels in the « on » position, therefore the programme
selection cannot be changed without switching the machine off.
Once the machine Is started, it will automatically carry out all operations up to
the end of the programme chosen and will automatically stop. To switch the
machine off or stop the machine in the course of a programme, push in the
timer control knob.
As a safety feature the door is automatically locked during the washing cycle and
remains locked for a further 60-70 seconds after the machine finishes the pro¬
gramme or is switched off. This does not apply however during the water filling
stage. As an additional safety feature, the door is also fitted with a double
action catch. Operation of this catch is very simple provided that the outside
section is first slid inwards and then, without releasing, the complete catch is
pulled outwards (fig. 7).
SELECTION OF WASHING PROGRAMME
The washing machine carries out 10 washing programmes and 3 additional pro¬
grammes. Each programme has been specially designed for a specific type of
fabric (e.g. cotton, synthetic fibres, wool etc.) and incorporates the H.L.C.C. care
labelling scheme.
The appropriate programme must therefore be chosen according to the type of
fabric to be washed.
FILLING WITH WASHING POWDER
The washing powder dispenser is located on the front left of the control panel.
It is very important to use a low sudsing powder (see paragraph «Which powder>0
such as Persil Automatic.
Pull out the dispenser and add washing powder. The amount of washing powder
for the prewash (2-3 ozs) should be put into section « A » of the dispenser
(fig. 8) and the powder for the main wash (3-4 ozs) should be put into section
« B ». To select the correct washing powder dispenser compartment follow the
instructions on the control panel on the front of the machine according to the
programme selected.
Once the dispenser is filled, close by pushing in.
