DAILY USE
TIPS
Before loading the baskets, remove all food residues from the croc-
kery and empty the glasses.
You do not need to rinse beforehand
under running water.
Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does
not tip over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing
downwards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus
allowing the water to reach every surface and flow freely.
Warning:
lids, handles, trays and frying pans do not prevent the
sprayer arms from rotating. Place any small items in the cutlery
basket. Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower
basket because in this sector the water sprays are stronger and
allow a higher washing performance.
After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can
rotate freely.
HYGIENE
To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the
dishwasher please run a high temperature program at least one
a month. Use a tea spoon of detergent and run it without the
loading to clean your appliance.
UNSUITABLE CROCKERY
•
Wooden crockery and cutlery.
•
Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique
crockery. Their decorations are not resistant.
•
Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high
temperatures.
•
Copper and tin crockery.
•
Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces
can change and fade during the washing process. Some types of
glass (e.g. crystal objects) can become opaque after a number of
wash cycles too.
DAMAGE TO GLASS AND CROCKERY
•
Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the manufac-
turer as dishwasher safe.
•
Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery.
•
Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as
the wash cycle is over.
ADVICE AND TIPS
1. CHECK WATER CONNECTION
Check that the dishwasher is connected to the water
supply and that the tap is open.
2. SWITCH ON THE DISHWASHER
Open the door and press the
ON/OFF
button.
3. LOAD THE RACKS
(see LOADING THE RACKS).

the type of crockery and its soiling level
(see PROGRAMS
DESCRIPTION)
by pressing the
P
button.
6. START
Start the wash cycle by closing the door. When the program
starts you hear a beep.
7. END OF WASH CYCLE
The end of the wash cycle is indicated by beeps and by
the flashing of the indicator light of the selected program.
Open the door and switch off the appliance by pressing the
ON/OFF
button.
Wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery - to
avoid burns.
Unload the racks, beginning with the lower one.
The machine will switch off automatically during certain
extended periods of inactivity, in order to minimise electri-
city consumption. If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if
it has been rinsed with water before being placed in the di-
shwasher, reduce the amount of detergent used accordingly.
MODIFYING A RUNNING PROGRAM
If a wrong program was selected, it is possible to change it,
provided that it has only just begun: open the door, press and hold
the
ON/OFF
button, the machine will switch off.
Switch the machine back on using the
ON/OFF
button and select
the new wash cycle and any desired options; start the cycle by
closing the door.
ADDING EXTRA CROCKERY
Without switching off the machine, open the door (
be ware
of HOT steam
!) and place the crockery inside the dishwasher.
Close the door and the cycle will begin from the point at which
it was interrupted.
ACCIDENTAL INTERRUPTIONS
If the door is opened during the wash cycle, or if there is a power
cut, the cycle stops. It starts again from the point at which it was
interrupted once the door has been closed or the electricity
supply is restored.
