Delicate wash
If the dishes are not very dirty, you can select Delicate wash. This
programme is intended for glasses and porcelain that have just
been used and as such do not require such a powerful
programme.
This programme can be used for fragile dishes. Select Short dry
if you want to be especially cautious. See also the section Fragile
dishes in Chapter Loading the dishwasher.
Eco wash
This programme is intended for cleaning normally dirty dishes
and is the most effective programme in terms of combined energy
and water consumption.
The High temperature option must be selected to access the
programme used to compile the information for energy labelling.
Upper half
You can use this programme if you only have cups and glasses
that need washing in the upper basket. Slightly dirty dishes can
also be placed in the lower basket.
Lower half
You can use this programme when you only want to wash plates
and cutlery in the lower basket. Slightly dirty dishes can also be
placed in the upper basket.
Rinse & Hold
Used to rinse dishes while you wait for the dishwasher to become
fully loaded.
Selecting Options
To select an option, press one of the option buttons. The field
under the button lights when the option is activated. The available
options depend on the selected programme. Once you have
started the programme, the options you selected are saved for
the next time you use the same programme. An exception is the
Delayed start option.
High temperature
Activate this option for improved dishwashing results. The
machine then uses a higher temperature for the main wash. This
option cannot be activated if the Time saver option is selected.
If you want to use the lower temperature, press again so that the
field under the button turns off.
You can vary the temperature as shown below:
60 °C / 70 °C Heavy wash:
60 °C / 65 °C Normal wash:
60 °C / 65 °C Daily wash:
30 °C / 60 °C Quick wash:
40 °C / 50 °C Delicate wash:
50 °C / 56 °C Eco wash:
55 °C / 65 °C Upper half:
55 °C / 65 °C Lower half:
Long dry
A higher temperature in the final rinse and a longer drying phase
improves the drying result if you activate the Long dry option.
This causes a slight increase in energy consumption. This option
can be used with all programmes except Time program, Hygiene
wash and Rinse & Hold. This option cannot be activated if the
Time saver option is selected.
If you want a programme with Short dry, press again so that the
field under the button turns off.
Delayed start
When you select Delayed start, the dishwasher will start 1-24
hours after you press the Start/Stop button.
1 Press the button once to activate Delayed start. Press the
button several times – or hold it in – to set the desired number
of hours.
2 Press Start/Stop and the dishwasher counts down 1 hour at
a time and starts after the selected delay.
Press and hold Start/Stop for three seconds if you want to cancel
the Delayed start option.
NOTE!
Remember to press the Start/Stop button to start the
programme.
Set time
Press the option button several times – or hold it in – to set the
desired programme time for Time program. You can choose a
programme time between 30 minutes and 3 hours.
Time saver
This option shortens the programme time, but uses more energy
and water. This option can be selected with the programmes
Heavy wash, Normal wash, Daily wash, Upper half and Lower
half.
Start the dishwasher
Press and hold Start/Stop until the display shows (the door
open symbol). This indicates that the dishwasher is ready to start.
Close the door properly, otherwise the dishwasher will not start.
