PRE WASH
Warm pre-wash before the main wash, which follows automatically; in-
termediate spin in the COTTONS/LINEN and EASY-CARE programmes;
no intermediate spin in the DELICATES programme.
STAIN
For heavily soiled and stained washing. In-wash stain treatment prod-
ucts are washed in at the optimum time as the programme progresses.
Can only be selected with wash temperatures of 40°C and above, as
stain treatment products are only effective at higher temperatures.
Starting a programme

2. Press the START/PAUSE button. The programme is started.
3 If after the START/PAUSE button has been pressed E40 flashes in the
multi-display, the END indicator flashes 4 times and at the same time
an acoustic signal sounds 4 times, the door is not closed properly. Push
the door firmly closed and press the START/PAUSE button again.
Programme progress
• The programme progress display shows the programme step that is
currently being performed.
• The multi-display indicates the estimated time remaining (in minutes)
until the end of the programme.
3 During the washing cycle the remaining time may be increased or stay
the same for a while as the programme adjusts itself to different condi-
tions (e. g. type and quantity of laundry, out of balance spin detection,
special rinses, etc.).
