3. HOW TO USE THE APPLIANCE
HOW TO LOAD THE RACKS
UPPER RACK - depending on the model
Long-handled utensils (kitchen knives) must be arranged with
the sharp end facing in towards the appliance.
The two handles E must be on same level.
Washing without the upper rack
If the appliance is equipped with the adjustable retainers shown in the figure, the
upper rack can be removed in order to accommodate large plates, trays etc.
Open the two retainers F and slide the top rack out.
When the upper rack is in place the retainers must always be
closed.
LOWER RACK - depending on the model
Sharp utensils that might cause injury must be placed in the cutlery basket with the sharp end facing downwards.
Arrange crockery so that water does not collect in cavities, ensuring that the spray arms turn freely.
Only use dishwasher-proof crockery and dishes. Do not use the dishwasher for washing wooden items, aluminium, tin, silver
cutlery or decorated crockery (unglazed).
WASH CYCLE
The dishwasher door must be closed and the water tap open.
To load crockery, open the door with caution:
beware of hot steam.
Close the door again. The programme resumes the cycle from where it was interrupted.
The wash cycle can be interrupted at any time by pressing
RESET.
PROGRAMME END
Exercise caution when opening the door: beware of hot steam.
Only press the OFF button once the START indicator lamp has switched off. All the indicator lamps switch off. Unload the appliance, starting from the
lower rack in order to avoid any residual drips of water falling onto crockery below.
For even better drying results, leave the dishwasher door open a little before unloading in order to allow the steam to
dissipate, helping the dishes to dry. The underside of the kitchen worktop must be protected (see instructions in “Maintenance
and Installation”).
