3.2 Washing programs

Before starting a washing program make sure that:

•The water supply tap is open.

•The correct amount of detergent has been added to the dispenser.

•The baskets have been correctly loaded.

•The spray arms are able to rotate freely and without obstruction.

•The dishwasher door is securely closed.

"3/1" OPTION BUTTON (on some models only) (available in all programs except the soak program)

By pressing the button (6) you activate the "3/1" option, confirmed when the relative light comes on. This option has been studied for the use of dishwashing powder or tablets with integrated substances in place of regenerating salt or rinse-aid known on the market as “3 in 1” or “triple action” products; in this case the dishwasher will use the product in an optimal way avoiding salt and rinse-aid consumption, which could already be found in the dishwasher.

Note: When selecting the "3/1" button, it is normal that the salt and rinse-aid lights remain on, if their containers are empty.

DELAYED START (on some models only) (available in all programs except the soak program)

The start of the program can be delayed by 3, 6 or 9 hours.

This allows you to set the dishwasher to work at the times of day most convenient to you.

After setting the program of your choice, press the DELAYED START button (8) to select the delay you require. The corresponding DELAYED START light (9) lights up.

If you wish to exit the procedure without setting delayed start, press the button in sequence until all three lights are out.

At the end of the cycle, the procedure is automatically deleted, so if you also require it for the next program you will have to set it again.
