User instructions 14 3.3 Washing programs The dishwasher is equipped with a control panel and an INFORMATION DISPLAY from which it is possible to carry out all the power switch-on, switch-off and programming operations. Before starting a washing program make sure that: • The water supply tap is open. • The correct amount of detergent has been added to the dispenser. • The baskets have been correctly loaded. • The spray arms are able to rotate freely and without obstruction. • The dishwasher door is securely closed. LIGHTING Pressing the ON/OFF button will start the dishwasher and will lit up the dishwasher pilot light. After approximately 3 second from this operation the DISPLAY will be turned on with a visualization that will depend upon the state of the dishwasher. PROGRAMMING All the programming operations are possible only with closed door. With open door, on the DISPLAY will appear - - : - -. SELECTION PROGRAM The program selection is possible through the relative buttons. By pressing the relative button of desired program (see table) it will lid up the relative pilot light to confirm that the operation did occurred on the DISPLAY will appear a program duration forecasting (“h.mm”).
User instructions 15 START PROGRAM At this point, in order to start the machine, it is only enough to press the START/PAUSE (6) for some seconds until the symbol START/PAUSE (D) start to flash and confirmation “beep” is heard. From this moment the cycle duration on the DISPLAY (9) starts to decrease. This phase, that updates itself during the cycle, is “indicative” since it is influenced by the washing conditions such as dishwasher type and quantity, entry temperature etc. For this reason it is normal to see the updating during a program (increment and decrease of minutes) specially in the passage from one phase to the other (for example, from washing to rinse). END PROGRAM The end of the program is indicated by a short signal acoustic and from the “End” visual notification on DISPLAY. By pressing one of the buttons, the “End” visual signal will vanish from the display and the dishwasher is ready to continue a new cycle. INTERRUPTING A PROGRAM In order to interrupt a running program it is necessary: • to press the START/PAUSE for some seconds until when the symbol START/PAUSE remains lit on the display (confirmation beep). At this point,it is possible to start the cycle again, otherwise: • TO CHANGE A PROGRAM To change the running program it is necessary: • to interrupt the running program (see “INTERRUPTING A PROGRAM”); • select the new program; • to press again the START/PAUSE button to make start the new program.
User instructions 16 STOPPING A PROGRAM To cancel a program which is running: • Interrupt the program (see INTERRUPTING A PROGRAM) • Press the START/PAUSE button and hold it down; the display will show P0 and the dishwasher will immediately switch to the end of the cycle and drain the tank (during this process, the START/PAUSE symbol will flash). When the drain procedure ends, the end of cycle End message appears on the display. In case that the door is opened during the operation, to the next door closing it is going to be necessary to start the program as shown in paragraph “STARTING THE PROGRAM”. The program will resume from the point in which it was interrupted. In case that the tub temperature is higher than 50°C the program will start about 60 seconds later.
User instructions 17 PROGRAM DELAY The PROGRAM DELAY button can be pressed to delay the start of the washing program by from 1 to 12/24 hours depending on the model. This option allows the dishwasher to be operated at the time of day of the users choice. The first time the PROGRAM DELAY button is pressed the option light comes on and 1:h appears on the DISPLAY. The button can then be pressed again, to set the delay required ( 2:h, 3:h, … etc.). If no button is pressed for a few seconds, the DISPLAY shows the time left (time remaining) to the end of the selected program (e.g. 5:40, duration of the washing cycle + program delay). When the user confirms the program start (read the relative section) a prewash will be carried out, after which the PROGRAM DELAY set will begin, and the time remaining on the DISPLAY will gradually be counted down. At the end of the delay set, the option light goes out and the washing cycle starts. N.B.: It is not possible to select the PROGRAM DELAY option once the cycle has begun. Chosen the delay, proceed with the program start, press the button START/PAUSE for same seconds until the START/PAUSE symbol start to flash. The machine will perform a dish pre-washing, and when finish, the “delay program” will enter in function as it was first set.
