5.1.1.7 Weight sensor (where featured)
Appliances fitted with the weight sensor (inserted inside a shock absorber) are designed - thanks to the LCD
display - to inform the user of the weight of the laundry inside the drum while at the same time suggesting the
quantity of detergent to pour into the dispenser provided.
For it to operate, the appliance needs to be in selecting phase with the door open. When the laundry is being
placed inside the drum, the LCD displays the weight in kg with a resolution of 0.5 kg.
The exact sequence to have the correct weight information is as follows:
The appliance must be turned off and the drum must be empty.
Turn the washing machine on, select the programme, choose the options, and
if the door was closed on starting, open it.
The LCD displays the maximum weight declared for the selected programme and
0.0 kg the weight of the laundry inside the drum (empty drum) and the words
“Load laundry” are displayed in the text line.
The graduated scale lights up in proportion to the weight of the laundry inside the
drum, the maximum weight displayed for the programme corresponds to the
complete lighting of the graduated bar.
Concurrently to the loading of the laundry in the drum, the LCD display is updated for both the weight and time
left until the end of the cycle.
In the event of an overload in a programme (Cottons), the LCD display will continue to show the maximum
weight without warning that the load is excessive.
Whereas in other programmes (Synthetics, delicates and special programmes) if the weight exceeds by just
0.5 kg, the words “Load laundry” in the text line change to “Loading completed”, to indicate that loading must end.
If the load exceeds by more than 1 kg, the graphic bar is completely lit, and the words “Max. load exceeded” are
displayed in the text line. The word MAX and the maximum weight related to the appliance flash.
In some cases, you will have to take some of the laundry out to guarantee optimum washing performance.
Once the laundry has been loaded, close the door, the LCD display cancels all the weight details and the
percentage detergent to be poured into the dispenser is shown in the text line, considering 100% to be the
quantity of detergent required for the maximum load for the chosen programme (a value that remains fixed even
in the case of an overload).
Once the detergent has been poured in, and the START/PAUSE button has been pressed, the washing cycle
will begin. The information about the weight of the laundry and the percentage detergent disappears and will not
be displayed again for the entire cycle.
