(If a new washing programme is to be selected, check that there is detergent in the detergent dispenser).

6. To cancel a delay start in progress

Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is opened. Open the door carefully.

Interrupt a washing programme in progress

Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop. Close the door; the programme will start from the point at which it was interrupted.

7. End of the washing programme

The dishwasher will automatically stop and an audible signal informs you of the end of the washing programme.

If the door is not immediately opened at the end of the programme, air will circulate inside the dishwasher to prevent residual steam recondensing on the dishes as water droplets.

This device operates intermittently for about 20 minutes, as long as the dishwasher is switched on.

If the On/Off button is pressed or the door is opened during these 20 minutes, the device will be automatically cancelled.

Open the dishwasher’s door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.

Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button.

8. Unloading the dishwasher

Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from the appliance.

Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one.

Water may appear on the sides and the door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes.

When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off.
