The black dot to the right of the 1 is between the 4 and the 5. When the power button is pressed and held in, the light above will flash three times quickly... this is when you will then push it to the off (button out) position, and like John says above, now turn the dial to the desired wash cycle ( put your clothes in the machine...I forgot -lol ) and Bob's your uncle.
