Option buttons
IMPORTANT
All options MUST be turned on or off,
BEFORE pressing "START" button.
"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.
“1/2 FLEXI” button
To ensure that your dishwasher meets all
your requirements, this button allows you
to select:
1)
Half Load Top Basket
By selecting this option dishes
are washed in the top basket
and cutlery in lower basket.
2)
Half Load Lower Basket
By selecting this option dishes
are washed in the lower basket
only.

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
symbol of the program for the factory set
is "
recommended
” (which is ideal for
full load daily use) or the symbol for the
"Auto’ Memory" program (see below) will
appear on the display.
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 set another programme, press the
"PROGRAMME SELECTION" button
("PR.").
■
When the required programme is shown
in the display, press the "START" button.
The length of the program will be shown on
the display alternating hours with minutes
[I.e.: 1 h (1 hour) / 25 (25 minutes)].
■
Close the door (after an audible signal
has sounded, if it has not been deactivated,
the programme will start automatically).
“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 automatically
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).
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:
■
Open the door.
■
Hold the "START" button down for at
least 5 seconds (the running program
will be cancelled).
■
At this point a new program can be set.
IMPORTANT
If, when the "START" button is held
down, "00" blinks on the display, it
means that there is water in the
appliance.
Close the door to allow the water to
be discharged and wait for the
audible signal, after which the new
programme 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 end
A 5 second buzzer will sound (if not muted)
3 times at 30 second intervals to signal that
the program has ended. 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.
