Turning on the Appliance

First of all

Insert the plug into the electricity socket to power the dishwasher. Turn on the water tap completely and press ON- OFF button "A"; the display lights up and the wash cycle time selected on the knob will flash.

Selecting and starting a wash cycle.

•Select the desired wash cycle by turning knob "D" clockwise from wash cycle 1 to 7 and anticlockwise from 7 to 1; the display indicates the average duration of the wash cycle and the cycle phases it consists of (consult the wash cycle table contained on page 7, especially when first using the appliance).

•Press the Start button "R" and the wash cycle starts up, emitting a double beep; the approximate amount of time left until the end of the wash cycle is displayed.

•If the time indicated at the start of the wash cycle does not correspond to the actual duration of the cycle itself, this could be for a number of reasons: the temperature of the inlet water, the degree of soil, prolonged attempts by the appliance to clean the wash filter from food residue clogging it, etc.

Cycle phase under way indicator

While the wash cycle is under way, the symbols corresponding to the cycle phases light up in sequence.

Here are the symbols corresponding to each cycle phase:

Cancelling and modifying a wash cycle in progress Premise: a wash cycle in progress can only be modified if it hasn't been running for long.

Keep the Reset button "R" pressed for about 3 seconds: a prolonged beep will sound, followed by three short beeps. The cancelled cycle time will flash on the display. Turn the knob to select a new wash cycle.

You've left out a dish?

You can interrupt a wash cycle by pressing the "ON-OFF" button, then place the forgotten dishes into the appliance, which will start up, after approximately 10 seconds, from where it was interrupted when you turn it back on.

There's been a power failure? Has the dishwasher door been opened?

The wash cycle stops and 3 dashes appear on the display; the cycle restarts as soon as the electricity comes back on or when the door is shut.

At the end of the wash cycle

The end of the wash cycle is indicated by two short beeps and the word "END" flashes on the display.

•Turn the appliance off at the ON-OFF button

•Turn off the water tap.

•Empty the lower rack first.

Make sure the wash cycle has ended before removing the dishes!

Warning: when you open the dishwasher door after the wash cycle has just ended or is under way, take care not to scald yourself with the hot steam.

How to set the extra drying

Press button "E". After a prolonged beep, indicator light "G" lights up and the time corresponding to the wash cycle selected on the knob will flash on the display.

Note: The time indicated on the display is extended due to the extra drying time.

To disable the extra drying option, press the same button and indicator light "G" will be turned off after a beep is sounded.

This option is incompatible with the soak cycle.
