3.Close the dishwasher door
4.Press the On/Off button
The On/Off indicator light illuminates.
5. Setting and starting the programme
To select a programme, press the button of the programme you wish to select, (see "Washing programmes" chart), the indicator light of the button illuminates and in the digital display will appear, flashing, the running time of the programme that has been set (in minutes).
The phase indicator lights foreseen for that programme will illuminate.
After about 3 seconds from the last pressure of a button the programme starts automatically.
In the digital display the running time of the programme is no longer flashing and the indicator lights of the phases will turn off except for the phase underway.
To cancel a washing programme in progress
To cancel a washing programme you have to reset the dishwasher; press simultaneously the function buttons 2 and 3 for about 2 seconds. After about 2 seconds all the indicator lights will turn off (except for the On/Off indicator light and eventually the rinse aid and salt indicator lights) indicating that the running programme has been cancelled. If a new washing programme is to be selected, check that there is detergent in the detergent dispenser.
7. To cancel a delay start
To cancel a delay start in progress you have to reset the dishwasher; follow the same instructions given in "To cancel a washing programme in progress". Cancelling a delay start involves also the cancelling of the washing programme set.
In this case you have to set the washing programme again.
Setting and starting the programme with the delay start
The setting of the delay start occurs before selecting the programme
Press the delay start button until the flashing number of the hours for the delay start will appear in the digital display (from 1h to 19h).
Select a washing programme (see "Washing programmes" chart). In the digital display will appear, for a moment, the running time of the programme and then again appears the selected delay start time.
As soon as the number of hours is displayed without flashing, the countdown for the delay start is active. The countdown will decrease with steps of 1 hour.
The opening of the door during the countdown will not modify the delay start.
Once the delay start has elapsed the programme will start automatically.
Note: it is possible to select a washing programme and the delay start also with the door slightly opened.
In this case the start of the programme or of the countdown will occur after the closure of the door. Until that moment it is possible to modify the set made.
6. To interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress
Interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress ONLY if it’s absolutely necessary.
Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is opened. Open the door carefully.
8. End of the washing programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop.
The End indicator light is illuminated.
The indicator light of the programme just ended will remain on.
In the digital display appears 0, only in this case the programme has ended.
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button.
Open the dishwasher’s door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.
9. Unloading the dishwasher
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from the appliance.
Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one.
Water may appear on the sides and the door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes.
When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off.
