3.Measure out the detergent (see below).

4.Load the racks (see Loading the racks).

9.Wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery, in order to avoid burns. Unload the racks, beginning with the lower level.

- The machine will switch off automatically during certain periods of inactivity, in order to minimise electricity consumption.

AUTO WASH CYCLES*: this model of dishwasher is equipped with a special sensor which can be used to assess the level of soiling and automatically select the most efficient and economic wash cycle accordingly.

The duration of the auto wash cycles may vary due to the operation of the sensor.

Modifying a wash cycle in progress

If a mistake was made during the wash cycle selection process it is possible to change the cycle, provided that it has only just begun: open the door, avoiding the escaping steam, and press and hold the ON/OFF button; the machine will switch off with a long beep. Switch the machine back on using the ON/OFF button and select the new wash cycle and any options desired; start the cycle by closing the door.

Adding extra crockery

Without switching off the machine, open the door, taking care to avoid the escaping steam, and place the crockery inside the dishwasher. Close the door: the cycle starts from the point at which it was interrupted.

Accidental interruptions

If the door is opened during the wash cycle, or if there is a power cut, the cycle stops. It starts again from the point at which it was interrupted once the door has been shut or once the electricity supply is restored.

Measuring out the detergent

A good wash result also depends on the correct amount of detergent being used; exceeding the stated amount does not result in a more effective wash and increases environmental pollution.

Only use detergent which has been specifically designed for dishwashers.

DO NOT USE washing up liquid.

Using excessive detergent may result in foam residue remaining in the machine after the cycle has ended.

The use of tablets is only recommended for models which offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option.

To achieve the best results from each washing and drying cycle, powder detergent, rinse aid liquid and salt should be used.

Compartment A: Washing detergent

Compartment B: Pre-wash detergent

1. Open cover C by pressing button D.

2. Pour in the detergent after consulting the Table of wash

cycles:

• For powder detergent use

compartments A and B.

• For detergent in tablet form: when the cycle requires 1 tablet, place it in compartment A and

close the cover; when it requires 2, place the second tablet at the bottom of the appliance.

3.Remove detergent residues from the edges of the compartment and close the cover until it clicks.

*Only available in selected models.
