•Press button "A" to turn the appliance off.
•Turn off the water tap.
•Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishes: if you wait a little while, they dry better thanks to the steam.
•Empty the lower rack first.
Warning: when you open the dishwasher door after the wash cycle has just ended or is under way, take care not to scald yourself with the hot steam.
You decide when it starts.
When you have loaded the dishes, you can choose when to start your dishwasher before setting the wash cycle desired. Press button "H" to delay the start of the wash cycle by 12, 9, 6 or 3 hours. Each time you press it, you will hear a short beep and the indicator light "G" corresponding to the selected delay will light up.
Now you can select the desired wash cycle. Press the start button "R" and after you hear the beep, the countdown to the delayed start will begin.
Once this time is up, the indicator light will stop flashing and the wash cycle will begin.
If you have set a 12 hour delay, for example, once you have selected the wash cycle, the 12 hour indicator light will flash followed by the others in sequence until the set time delay is up. A quick look at the indicator lights will keep you informed of the countdown progress at all times.
Have you changed your mind?
If you change your mind, you can set a shorter time delay: press button "H" to select it. You need not reset the wash cycle.
If on the other hand you want to cancel the delay set and you want the cycle to start immediately, press button "H" repeatedly until the cycle starts and indicator light "G" corresponding to the cycle start phase comes on.
Dual function of indicator lights "G"
1)flashing to indicate a delayed start: to remind you that you have set a delayed start;
2)on and not flashing beneath the cycle phase symbol: meaning the cycle has started and is in the phase indicated by the symbol.
You want to wash on one rack only? Remember to use half the amount of detergent.
Your dishwasher also allows you to wash half a load, to save water and electricity. Before setting any wash cycle, press button "I", the indicator light "L" lights up.
