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

By pressing the button (8) 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.

DELAYING THE PROGRAM (on some models only) (available in all programs except the soak program)

The PROGRAM DELAY button (12) can be pressed to delay the start of the program by up to 9 hours. This means that the dishwasher can be operated at the time of day of your choice. Press the button several times in succession and the display will show the delay with which the appliance will start, beginning from 9 hours.

TO SAVE ON ENERGY! … AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT

Always try to run the dishwasher fully loaded.

Do not wash the dishes in running water.

Use the washing program that is most appropriate for each type of load.

Do not carry out any preliminary rinsing.

If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply up to 60°C.

TO CUT DOWN ON DETERGENT CONSUMPTION! … AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT

The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the environment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to save on electricity, observe the following:

separate the more delicate items from dishes that are more resistant to aggressive detergents and high temperatures;

do not pour the detergent directly on the dishes.
