Switching on

The dishwasher must not be turned on until the dishes have been loaded, the dispenser has been filled with detergent, a check has been made that the spray arms turn freely, and the door has been shut. The water tap must also be turned on and salt placed in the container.

Setting the programme "P"

All programming operations are accompanied by a short beep to indicate reception; if you do not hear anything when a button is pressed, the programme selected does not provide this function. To select the most suitable programme for the dishes to be washed, comply carefully with the table in the manual which follows, especially in the beginning. This table lists the programmes available in relation to the type of dishes, their strength and resistance to temperature, and how dirty they are. With this fully integrated dishwasher, the washing programmes are selected with the door partly open. Once the most suitable programme has been identified, it is set by pressing the "programme selection" ("P") button until the corresponding number appears on the information display.

N.B.: "P0" on the display means that no washing programme has been selected. This indication remains on the display until the programme selection button is pressed, at this point the display will show the last programme carried out. Each time the button is pressed, the system will scroll through the programme numbers from that number onward.

Start-up

At this point, to start the dishwasher simply close the door. A double beep will inform you that the programme is starting.

Switch-off

The end of the washing programme is signalled by an on/off beeper and the appearance of "P0" on the display.
