Changing the programme
To change the programme in progress, simply open the door and select a new programme. When the door is closed the dishwasher will automatically select the new programme.
If the door has to be opened while washing is in progress, the programme will be interrupted. The relative light will keep flashing and a beeper will signal that the cycle has not been completed. You must wait about 1 minute before closing the door to restart the programme. When the door is closed the programme will continue from where it was interrupted. This operation should only be carried out if strictly necessary, because it might cause problems in execution of the programme.
End of cycle
At the end of the washing cycle the dishwasher gives a short acustic signal and the programme indicators nr 4 and 5 start blinking (the word "end" is displayed on the window).

Removing the dishes
At the end of the washing programme, wait at least 20 minutes before removing the dishes, to allow them to cool down. To prevent any water droplets on the upper basket from falling on the dishes in the lower basket, it is advisable to unload the lower basket first, and then the upper basket.
