User instructions 15 3.2 Washing programs Before starting a washing program make sure that: • The water supply tap is open. • The softener container contains regenerating salt. • The correct amount of detergenthas been added to the dispenser. • The baskets have been correctly loaded. • The spray arms are able to rotate freelyand without obstruction. • The dishwasher door is securely closed. OPTION SELECTION Options are selected by pressing the relative button by the symbol of the option required; the light comes on to confirm that the option has been activated. • It is not possible to select any options when the soak program is being used. • All options except Flexi tabs are disabled at the end of the wash cycle. To disable the “Flexi tabs” option, press the relative button (the light goes out). • All options, including Flexi tabs are disabled when a program is CANCELLED after it has begun. ADDITIONAL OPTIONS Some models feature additional options, activated by pressing two buttons simultaneously. In this case, two lines in the control panel graphics link the symbol of the additional option to the two buttons to be pressed simultaneously to enable it. (e.g. “Flexi Tabs” in this illustration)
User instructions 16 Flexi Tabs Ideal for multi-function detergents, this option allows washing to be optimised, with full benefits from the combined-action tablets. When this option is activated, any salt and rinse aid in the relative containers will not be used. If the option is not provided, we recommend the use of conventional products (separate detergent, salt and rinse aid), because with conventional washing cycles, combined products might create problems such as a white deposit, poor drying results and residues left on dishes. N.B.: When the salt and rinse aid containers are empty, the relative lights will remain on even if the “Flexi Tabs” option is selected. IMPORTANT: when no longer required, the option must be deactivated by pressing the relative button (the light goes out). If the water hardness has been set on a value above H3, and the “Flexi Tabs” option is activated, the relative light flashes, warning of a setting error. Multi-function products are not suitable for use with very hard water; this does not prevent the use of the option, but the washing results might not be of the best. ULTRA CLEAN The ULTRA CLEAN program prolongs the final hot rinse to ensure a further reduction in the bacteria level. If the temperature in the tank falls during this stage of the program (e.g. because the door is opened or due to a power blackout), the light of the option and the program lights (2) flash to warn that the additional washing phase has not been completed successfully. This does not mean that the wash program has been less effective than usual. SPREAD HALF LOAD Suitable when there are not many dishes to be washed, it saves energy and reduces the program duration. Place dishes in both baskets then load the detergent dispenser than less than the normal amount for a full load.
User instructions 17 PROGRAM DELAY The start of the program can be delayed by 3, 6 or 9 hours. This allows you to set the dishwasher to work at the times of day most convenient to you. After setting the program, press the button to select the delay you require; the corresponding light will come on. When the door is closed, the appliance will prewash the dishes, after which the program delay set will come into effect. If you wish to exit the procedure without setting delayed start, press the button in sequence until all three lights are out. N.B.: It is not possible to select the PROGRAM DELAY option once the cycle has begun. CANCELLING THE CURRENT PROGRAM • To cancel the currently selected program open the door and hold down the PROGRAM SELECTION (3) button for a few seconds until the indicator lights for programs 4 and 5 illuminate simultaneously (marked end). • Close the door. • After approximately 1 minute the dishwasher will advance to the end of cycle. CHANGING THE PROGRAM To change the program in progress, simply open the door and select a new program. When the door is closed the dishwasher will automatically select the new program.
User instructions 18 TO SAVE ON ENERGY! … AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT • Always use the dishwasher with a full load. • Do not wash the dishes in running water. • Use the washing program that is most appropriate for each type of load. • Do not carry out any preliminary rinsing. • If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply up to 60°C. TO CUT DOWN ON DETERGENT CONSUMPTION! … AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the environment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to save on electricity, observe the following: • separate the more delicate items from dishes that are more resistant to aggressive detergents and high temperatures; • do not pour the detergent directly on the dishes. If the door has to be opened while washing is in progress, the program will be interrupted. The relative light will keep flashing and a beeper will signal that the cycle has not been completed. You must wait about 1 minute before closing the door to restart the program. When the door is closed the program will continue from where it was interrupted. This operation should only be carried out if strictly necessary, because it might cause problems in execution of the program. SWITCHING OFF At the end of the program the beeper sounds briefly and the lights of programs no. 4 and 5 (marked end) flash. To switch off the dishwasher, open the door and press the ON/OFF button (1). REMOVING THE DISHES At the end of the washing program, wait at least 20 minutes before removing the dishes, to allow them to cool. To ensure that any drops of water left in the top basket cannot drip onto the dishes still in the bottom basket, you are advised always to empty the bottom basket first.
