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.

Based on how soiled the items are, the amount can be 

adjusted to individual cases using powder or liquid   

detergent.

In the case of normally soiled items, use approximately 

either 35 gr (powder detergent) or 35 ml (liquid detergent). 

If tablets are used, one tablet will be enough.

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.  

For good washing results also follow the instructions shown 

on the detergent box.

For further questions please ask the detergent producers' 

Advice Offices.

To open the detergent dispenser use the opening device “A”.

                                    
Introduce the detergent into the dry dispenser “B” only.  

Place the amount of detergent for pre-washing directly 

inside the tub.

1.

 When measuring out the detergent refer to the Table of wash 

cycles to add the proper quantity. Compartment 

B

 comprises 

a  level  showing  the  maximum  quantity  of  liquid  or  powder 

detergent that can be added to each cycle.

2.

 Remove detergent residues from the edges of the dispenser 

and close the cover until it clicks.

3.

 Close the lid of the detergent dispenser by pulling it up until 

the closing device is secured in place.

The detergent dispenser automatically opens up at the right time     

according to the wash cycle.

If all-in-one detergents are used, we recommend using the TABS 

option, because it adjusts the cycle so that the best washing 

and drying results are always achieved.

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.  

The use of tablets is only recommended for models which 

offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option.

To achieve the best results from each washing and drying 

cycle, powder detergent, liquid rinse aid and salt should 

be used.

(see Measuring out the detergent).

.  

Switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button, shut 

off the water tap 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 long 

periods of inactivity in order to minimise electricity 
consumption.

AUTO WASH CYCLES

*

:

some dishwasher models are

equipped

 with a special sensor which can be used to assess

the level of soiling and automatically select the most efficient
and economical wash cycle accordingly. The duration of the auto
wash cycles may vary due to the operation of the sensor.

Changing 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 display shows 

PAUSE

. Open 

the door, taking care to avoid the escaping steam, and place the 

crockery inside the dishwasher. Press the Start/Pause button: the 

cycle starts from the point at which it was interrupted.  

If the delayed start has been set, at the end of the countdown 

the wash cycle will not start. It will stay in Pause mode.

Press  the  Start/Pause  symbol  to  pause  the  machine;  the 

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

Accidental interruptions

If the door is opened during the wash cycle, the text 

CLOSE THE 

DOOR

 appears on the display. 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 the electricity supply restored.
