Starting a Wash Cycle
Please follow the steps below to start a wash cycle.
1. Ensure the unit is connected to the mains power and the water supply is on (water pressure between
0.04MPa and 1.00MPa).
2. Open the door. Pull out the lower and upper baskets, load the dishes and push the baskets back.
3. Pour in the detergent or place the detergent tablet in the detergent compartment and close firmly
afterwards.
4. Press the On/Off button. The power indicator light will illuminate.
5. Select the wash cycle programme based on the loading and soil requirements. Please refer to the
“Wash Cycle Table” (page 14).
6. The indicator light of the selected programme will illuminate.
7. Close the dishwasher door. A click sound should be heard when the door is closed correctly. Do not
slam the door.
8. The washing cycle will begin shortly.
Changing a Programme
To change the programme if the washing cycle has already started, follow the steps below.
1. Open the door slightly to check if the unit has dispensed the detergent or detergent tablet. This will
depend on how long the washing cycle was running for.
2. If the detergent dispenser lid is opened, we suggest you to allow the wash cycle to complete.
3. If the detergent dispenser lid is still closed, press and hold the programme button for 3 seconds to
cancel the programme. Then, press the required new programme button and close the dishwasher
door. The unit will start the new washing cycle shortly.
At the End of a Programme
At the end of a programme, the dishwasher will make an audible sound.
If you open the dishwasher door during the washing cycle and then close it, the dishwasher will
continue the current washing programme after 10 seconds. However, if the door is not closed
correctly after 1 minute, the dishwasher will make an audible sound at 1 minute intervals.
The condensation strip helps to prevent the risk of steam damage to the worktop edging above
the dishwasher, it is advisable to leave the door closed until you are ready to unload the crockery.
However, you can also open the dishwasher door fully and wait until the dishes and crockery are
cool enough to unload. Do not leave the door only partially open.
