PROGRAM SELECTION
AND SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
(Use in conjunction with programme guide)
Program settings
■
Open the door and place dirty dishes
inside the appliance.
■
Press the "ON/OFF" button .
■
After pressing the "ON/OFF" button,
the LED for the factory set is
"recommended” (which is ideal for full
load daily use) or the LED for the "Auto’
Memory" program (see below) will blink.
The length of the program will be shown
on the display alternating hours with
minutes [I.e: 1 h (1 hour) / 25 (25 minutes)].
IMPORTANT
The dishwasher has two very practical
functions:
- the "recommended" program
( ) for quick and sure selection;
- the "Auto’ Memory", function which
saves a program used at least 3
times consecutively so that if you
regularly use the same washing cycle
each time you do not have to
continually set the program thereby
saving time and effort.
■
To select an option, press the
corresponding button (the LED will turn on).
Option buttons must be pressed
BEFORE starting the program for
them to be accepted.
■
To choose another program, press the
corresponding button (the relevant LED
will blink to confirm the selection).
■
To start the program, press the selected
program button again to
confirm. The
program starts automatically, the
relevant LED will stop blinking and
remain on and the cycle length will
appear on the display.
If the previously described operations
were performed with the door open, the
program will not start until the door is
closed.
“AUTOMATIC” programs
The dishwasher is equipped with a dirt
sensor , able to analyse water murkiness
during all "AUTOMATIC" program phases
(see program list) ; thanks to this sensor
the washing cycle parameters are automati-
cally adapted to the real quantity of dirt on
dishes. Thus excellent washing results are
guaranteed while optimising water and
energy consumption.
Program interruption
Opening the door when a program is
running is not recommended especially
during the main washing and final hot rinse
phases. However, if the door is opened
while a program is running (for example,
to add dishes) the machine stops
automatically and the display will flash the
remaining time before the end of the cycle.
Close the door,
without pressing any
buttons . The cycle will start from where it
left off (if it is necessary, the appliance
will make a short thermal anti-shock
programme before).
IMPORTANT
A running program can be interrupted
without opening the door by pausing
the dishwasher.
To pause, hold the running program
button down for at least 2 seconds
and release when the corresponding
LED starts blinking.
Simply press the program button
again to restart the cycle from where
it left off (the LED will stop blinking
and remain on).
WARNING!
If you open the door during the
drying cycle, an audible audio signal
advises you that the drying cycle has
not yet completed.

Changing a running program
Proceed as follows to change or cancel a
running program:
■
Hold down the current program button
(with the LED on) for at least 5 seconds.
All program LEDs will turn on for one
second. The running program will be
cancelled and the corresponding LED
will start to blink. The display will go
blank and the program end LED will turn
on in the display
■
At this point a new program can be set.
IMPORTANT
If, when the program button is held
down, "00" blinks on the display, it
means that there is water in the
appliance.
Close the door (if open) and wait until
the dishwasher empties the water.
When empty a new program can be set.
WARNING!
Before starting a new programme,
you should check that there is still
detergent in the dispenser.
If necessary, top up the dispenser.
If there is any break in the power supply
while the dishwasher is operating, a
special memory stores the selected
programme and, when the power is
restored, it continues where it left off (if
it is necessary, the appliance will make
a short thermal anti-shock programme
before).
Program operations
When a program is running, the time until
the end of the cycle will be displayed and
the 4
“PROGRAM STATUS” LEDs:
= "WASH"
= "RINSE"
= "DRY"
= "END"
will light singularly and in sequence to
indicate the current phase
Program end
The display will go blank and the last
“PROGRAM STATUS” LED will light to
indicate that the cycle has ended.
A 5 second buzzer will sound (if not muted)
3 times at 30 second intervals to signal that
the program has ended. The program end
LED will light and the display will go blank.
Dishes can now be removed and the
dishwasher turned off by pressing the
"ON/OFF" button or dishes can be loaded
for a new cycle.
Option buttons
IMPORTANT
All options MUST be turned on or off,
BEFORE starting the program.
"ECO" button
The "ECO" button provides over 20% time
and energy savings by reducing the final
water heating and drying times during the
last rinse cycle.
This option is recommended for light soil
washes, and for when the dishes are not
required perfectly dry straight away.
If you want to get better drying, we advise
to leave the dishwasher door slightly ajar at
the end of the cycle, to allow for a natural
circulation of air inside the dishwasher.
"PLUS" button
The "PLUS" option always guarantees the
best results by more effectively dealing
with heavier soiling. By using this option,
the strength of the selected cycle will be
increased, adding one rinse and increasing
the temperature of the water in the washing
phase where foreseen.
This option is recommended for very dirty
dishes or when dirty dishes may not have
been pre-treated allowing the soiling to dry
up.
