Start-up and use
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.
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, rinse aid liquid
and salt should be used.

Compartment B:
Pre-wash detergent
1. Open cover C by pressing
button D.

the control panel will light up for a few seconds.
3. Open the door and pour in a suitable amount of
detergent (

).
4. Load the racks (

) and shut the
door.

cycles
) by pressing the P button.
6. Select the wash options* (
see adjacent

).
7. Start the cycle by pressing the Start/Pause button
(fixed light). A long beep signals the start of the wash
cycle; the wash cycle indicator light is illuminated and
the time remaining until the end of the cycle is
displayed.
8. Two short beeps and one long one indicate the end
of the wash cycle; the Start/Pause button switches off

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.
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 starts from the point at which it was interrupted.
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.
