Starting a washing programme
1. Check that the baskets have been
loaded correctly and that the spray
arms can rotate freely
2. Turn on the water tap
3. Setting and starting the programme
In this appliance the programme selector dial is located on
the top of the door. When selecting a programme, the door
needs to be open.
Turn the programme selector dial clockwise until the
letter of the programme you wish to select corresponds
with the programme marker (see "Washing programmes"
chart).
If necessary select the temperature of the main wash
according to the instructions given in the "Washing
programmes" chart (see "Required temperature push
button").
Close the door and depress the On/Off push button; the
On/Off indicator light will come on and the machine will
start.
4. Interrupting a washing programme
in progress
Interrupt 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.
a) Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop.
Close the door; the programme will start from the point
in which it was interrupted.
b) Pressing the On/Off (in this case the On/Off indicator
light turns off). Press the On/Off push button again;
the programme will start from the point in which it was
interrupted.
5. End of the washing programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop.
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push
button, the On/Off indicator light turns off.
Open the door and wait a few minutes before removing
the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying
will be improved.
6. 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 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.
