Start-up and use

* Only available in selected models.

Switching the appliance on for the first

time

Selecting the language

Press the ON/OFF symbol; the display will show the set

language.

Use the DELAYED START button to scroll forwards, or the HALF

LOAD button to scroll backwards through the list until you reach

the desired language. Press the P button to confirm the selection;

you will then automatically enter the list of wash cycles.

Every time the dishwasher is switched on subsequently, the list

of wash cycles will be displayed.

The language may also be changed at a later date, by pressing

the P button and the DELAYED START button simultaneously for

a few seconds.

Starting the dishwasher

1. Turn the water tap on.

2. Press the ON/OFF button: you will hear a short beep and

the display will light up.

3. Open the door and pour in a suitable amount of detergent

(

see below

4. Load the racks (

see Loading the racks

) and shut the door.

5. Select the wash cycle in accordance with the type of

crockery and its soil level (

see Table of wash cycles

) by

pressing the P button.

6. Select the wash options (

see adjacent information

7. Start the cycle by pressing the Start button: a long beep

signals the start of the wash cycle; the name of the selected

cycle is displayed, along with the time remaining until the end

of the cycle.

8. Two short beeps and one long one indicate the end of the

wash cycle and the text “CYCLE END” appears on the

display. Switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF

button, shut off the water valve and unplug the appliance from

the electricity socket.

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.

If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if it has been

rinsed with water before being placed in the dishwasher,

reduce the amount of detergent used accordingly.

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: once the wash cycle has started, switch off

the machine by pressing and holding the ON/OFF/Reset

button. Switch it back on using the same button and select the

desired wash cycle and options.

Adding extra crockery

Press the Start/Pause button (the corresponding indicator light

will flash). Open the door, taking care to avoid the escaping

steam, and place the crockery inside the appliance. Press the

Start/Pause button (fixed light): the cycle will restart after a

prolonged beep is emitted.

If the Start/Pause button is pressed so as to pause the

machine, the wash cycle or the Delayed Start function (if

selected) is interrupted.

At this stage it is not possible to change the wash cycle.

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.

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.

Wash options*

The OPTIONS may only be set, modified or reset after the

wash cycle has been selected and before the Start/

Pause button has been pressed.

Only the options which are compatible with the type of wash

cycle set may be selected. If an option is not compatible with the

selected wash cycle (

see Table of wash cycles

), the correspond-

ing LED flashes rapidly 3 times and 2 short beeps will sound.

If an option is selected which is incompatible with another (previ-

ously selected) option, the indicator light corresponding to the

option selected first will flash 3 times, 3 beeps will sound and it will

be deselected, while the most recently selected option will remain

active.

To deselect an option which has been set by mistake, press the

corresponding button again.
