Special wash cycles and Options

Wash options

The OPTIONS may only be set, changed or reset after the wash cycle has been selected and before the Start/ Pause button has been pressed.

Only the options which are compatible with the type of wash cycle set may be selected. If an option is not compatible with the selected wash cycle (see Table of wash cycles), the corresponding symbol flashes rapidly 3 times.

If an option is selected which is not compatible with another (previously selected) option, it will flash 3 times and switch off, while the most recently selected option will remain active. To deselect an option which has been set by mistake, press the corresponding button again.

Multi-functional tablets (Multi Tabs)

This option optimises washing and drying results. When using multi-functional tablets, press the MULTI- FUNCTIONAL TABLETS button; the corresponding symbol will light up. If the button is pressed again, the option will be deselected.

The “Multi-functional tablets” option results in a longer wash cycle.

The use of tablets is only recommended for models having this option and it is not recommended with wash cycles which do not specify the use of multi-functional tablets.

Quick Time

GB

 

This option can be used to reduce the duration of the main wash cycles while, maintaining the same washing and drying performance levels. After selecting the wash cycle, press the SHORT TIME button; the illumination of the corresponding indicator light indicates its selection. Press it again to deselect it.

Delayed start

It is possible to delay the start time of the cycle by

1 to 24 hours:

1.Select the desired wash cycle and any other options required, press the DELAYED START button. The relevant symbol starts flashing. Use the buttons + and - to select when the wash cycle will start (h01, h02 etc.)

2.Confirm with the START/PAUSE button. The symbol stops flashing and the countdown begins.

3.Once this time has elapsed, the DELAYED START symbol switches off and the wash cycle begins.

To deselect the DELAYED START option, press the DELAYED START button until the text OFF appears.

The Delayed Start function cannot be set once a wash cycle has been started.

Extra drying

To improve the dryness level of the crockery, press the EXTRA DRYING button and the symbol will light up. If it is pressed again, the option will be deselected.

A higher temperature during the final rinsing and a longer drying phase improve the dryness level.

The EXTRA DRYING option increases the duration of the wash cycle.

Half load

If there are not many dishes to be washed, a half load cycle may be used in order to save water, electricity and detergent. Select the wash cycle and press the HALF LOAD button: the indicator light will illuminate.

Press the HALF LOAD button to deselect this option.

Remember to halve the amount of detergent.
