Start-up and use

Starting the dishwasher

1.Turn the water tap on.

2.Press the ON/OFF button: all the indicator lights on the control panel will light up for a few seconds.

3.Open the door and pour in a suitable amount of detergent (see below).

4.Load the racks (see Loading the racks) and shut the door.

5.Select the wash cycle in accordance with the type of crockery and its soil level (see Table of wash cycles) by pressing the P button.

6.Select the wash options* (see adjacent

information).

7.Start the cycle by pressing the Start/Pause button (fixed light). A long beep signals the start of the wash cycle; the wash cycle indicator light is illuminated and the time remaining until the end of the cycle is displayed.

8.Two short beeps and one long one indicate the end of the wash cycle; the Start/Pause button switches off and the word END appears on the display. Switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button, shut off the water valve and unplug the appliance from the electricity socket.

9.Wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery, in order to avoid burns. Unload the racks, beginning with the lower level.

Modifying a wash cycle in progress

If a mistake was made during the wash cycle selection process it is possible to change the cycle, provided that it has only just begun: once the wash cycle has started, switch off the machine by pressing and holding the ON/ OFF/Reset button. Switch it back on using the same button and select the desired wash cycle and options.

Adding extra crockery

Press the Start/Pause button (the corresponding indicator light will flash). Open the door, taking care to avoid the escaping steam, and place the crockery inside the appliance. Press the Start/Pause button (fixed light): the cycle starts from the point at which it was interrupted.

If the Start/Pause button is pressed so as to pause the machine, the wash cycle or the Delayed Start* function (if selected) is interrupted.

At this stage it is not possible to change the wash cycle.

Accidental interruptions

If the door is opened during the wash cycle, or if there is a power cut, the cycle stops. It starts again from the point at which it was interrupted once the door has been shut or once the electricity supply is restored.

Measuring out the detergent

A good wash result also depends on the correct amount of detergent being used; exceeding the stated amount does not result in a more effective wash and increases environmental pollution.

Only use detergent which has been specifically designed for dishwashers.

DO NOT USE washing up liquid.

Using excessive detergent may result in foam residue remaining in the machine after the cycle has ended.

The use of tablets is only recommended for models which offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option.

To achieve the best results from each washing and drying cycle, powder detergent, rinse aid liquid and salt should be used.
