3. Leave the appliance door ajar for a few minutes before removing the dishes. This way
they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.
Standby mode
If you do not switch off the appliance at the end of the washing programme, the appliance
automatically goes into standby mode. The standby mode decreases energy consumption.
Three minutes after the end of the programme, all indicator lights go off and the digital
display shows one horizontal bar.
Press one of the buttons (not the on/off button), to go back to end-of-programme mode.
UNLOADING THE DISHWASHER
• Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks.
The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from the appli-
ance.
• 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.
CAUTION!
When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is un-
plugged and the water tap turned off.
CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning the filters
The filters must be checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will degrade the
washing result.
WARNING!
Before cleaning the filters ensure that the machine is switched off.
WARNING!
NEVER use the dishwasher without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters
will produce poor washing results and may result in damage to the appliance.
