switched off, and if the water level is too high the
supply will automatically be closed off.
Important
To  ensure the correct operation of the
anti-overflow safety device, it is recommended
not to move or to tilt the dishwasher during
operation.
If it is necessary to move or to tilt the dishwasher,
first make sure the washing cycle is finished and
that no water is left in the tank.

1) It is not advisable to open the  door while the

machine is in operation, particularly during the
middle stage of the wash programme and the 
final hot rinse. Should anyone open the door
inadvertently,  the machine will automatically
stop.

2) Before starting the new programme, make

sure that the detergent has not already been
released. If it has, then top up the dispenser.

3) At the end of the wash cycle it is advisable to

turn off the water supply and unplug the
machine from the mains.
