Loading the Dishwasher

Starting the Appliance

Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove larger food particles to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which re- sults in reduced performance.

If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to remove, we recommend that they are soaked before washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.

Pull out the rack to load the dishwasher.

How to use the lower rack

We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.

It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.

- Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down.

- Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.

- The lower rack features fold down tine rows (see fig.A) so that

larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.

- The silverware basket can be doubled (see fig.B) so that only

one section may be used when the silverware load is light. This

also makes space for additional pots and pans and it can also be

placed in the upper rack.

- Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the

Starting a wash cycle￿

After having completed all of the installation steps in the pre- ceding paragraphs, turn on the water to the unit, partially open the door of the dishwasher, and press the ON-OFF button "A" located on the control panel. The "B" indicator light will come on. At this point, the appliance is on and ready to be programmed.

Setting and Starting a wash Cycle￿

Choose the desired cycle by pressing the cycle selection but- ton "G". Each time it is pressed, one of the cycle indicator lights "F" will begin to blink in succession.

Choose the wash cycle you feel is most appropriate for the type of dishes that need washing (consult the wash cycle table con- tained in this manual, especially when first using the appliance). Close the door and then the wash cycle has begun and cannot be modified. If necessary, read the paragraph entitled, "Can- celling or modifying a cycle while underway. "The end of the cycle will be signalled by six acoustic sound, and the indicator light "F" will turn off.

At the end of the wash cycle￿

The end of the cycle will be indicated by six acoustical signal,at the same time the "F" indicator light will turn off. Open the door, turn off the appliance using the ON-OFF switch and turn off the water supply to the unit. Wait a few minutes before removing the dishes so as to avoid handling them while still hot (when they are more susceptible to breakage) and to get better drying results.

Setting The Start Delay Time

Open the door of the dishwasher partially. If the "J" button is pressed (see, Close-up View" Control Panel"). The start time for the wash cycle can be delayed for 2,4,6,8,10 or 12 hours.

Each time the button is pressed, the "I" light will blink indicating the length of the delay.

After selecting the delay time, the wash cycle can be set, as explained in "Starting a wash cycle..." , close the door and at this point the delay period will begin to count down. During this pe- riod the delay indicator light (I) will come on. At the end of the delay time, the indicator will turn off and the cycle will start.

handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons

should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Espe-

cially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at

the front of the upper rack.

How to use the upper rack

The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).

-Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.

The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs lo- cated on both sides of the rack itself (see fig.C).

Adjust the upper basket to the higher level and you have more space to accommodate those taller pans and trays in the bottom

basket.

Shelf

Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelf-not against other items to be washed.

Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack. The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required(see

Cancelling or modifying a cycle while underway￿

Premise: A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it has only been running for a short time.

Otherwise, the detergent may have already been used, and the appliance may have already drained the wash water. If this is the case, the detergent dispenser must be refilled (see the para- graph entitled, "Loading the Detergent").

To change the cycle currently underway, open the door and press the ON-OFF button "A",follow the instructions contained in the paragraph entitled, "Starting a wash cycle￿","Setting and Starting a Wash Cycle".

To set a new wash cycle, follow the instructions contained in the paragraph entitled, "Setting and Starting a Wash Cycle".

NOTE:

a)During the delay period, none of the settings can be modified. If necessary, they can be cancelled by pressing press the ON- OFF button "A" located on the control panel.

b)If the door is opened during the delay period, the clock will stop the countdown. It will start again when the door has been closed.

Wash Cycle Adjustment Buttons

fig.D).

Knife rack

The knife rack clips onto the side of the top basket, giving you the freedom to wash your large sharp knives separately and out of harm’s way (see fig.E).

If you forget to load some of the dishes...

The wash cycle can be interrupted by opening the door care- fully (in order to avoid being sprayed by hot water). When the door is closed again, after 30 seconds the cycle will automati- cally restart at the point where it left off.
