3. HOW TO USE THE APPLIANCE
HOW TO LOAD THE RACKS
UPPER RACK - depending on model
Long-handled utensils (kitchen knives) must be arranged with
the sharp end facing in towards the appliance.
LOWER RACK - depending on 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 appliance door must be closed and the water tap open.
To add dishes, open the door with caution:
Beware of hot steam.
Close the door. The programme resumes 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”).
