1. Check the filters
Ensure they are clean and properly positioned
(see "Maintenance and cleaning" - Instruction book
part 1).
2. Check that there is rinse aid and
salt
(See "Instruction book - part 1")
3. Load the dishes
Remove any scraps of food.
Pull the lower basket out and arrange the
saucepans, plates and cutlery in it.
Pull the upper basket out and arrange the plates,
saucers, glasses and cups etc. in it.
Slide the baskets back into the machine.
4. Ensure that the spray arms can
rotate freely
5. Measure out detergent
Add the required amount of detergent into the
dispenser according to the "Washing programmes"
chart.
Close the detergent dispenser lid.
7. Set the programme
The selection of a programme occurs with the door
partially opened.
Turn the programme selector dial clockwise
until the letter of the programme you wish to select
corresponds with the programme marker on the
control panel.
If necessary select the temperatures of the main
wash according to the instructions in the “Washing
programmes” chart (see Required push buttons).
8. Start the programme
Close the dishwasher door.
Depress the ON-OFF push button.
The ON-OFF indicator light will come on and the
machine will start.
If you wish to interrupt the washing programme at
any time press this button again.
9. At the end of the washing
programme
At the end of the programme the dishwasher will
automatically stop.
The ON-OFF indicator light remains on until the
ON-OFF push button is depressed.
10. Switch off the dishwasher
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON-OFF
push button.
Wait 15/20 minutes before opening the
dishwasher’s door; in this way you will avoid
burning yourself when removing the dishes and
avoid also the damage of the nearby furniture
caused by the escape of steam.
Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one;
this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket
onto the dishes in the lower one.
When the washing programme has finished, it
is recommended that the dishwasher is
unplugged and the water tap turned off.
In general it is not advisable to open the door
while the machine is working; if the door is
opened however, a safety device ensures that
the machine stops.
Important!
Care must be taken if the door is opened during
the hot phase or immediately after a
programme has finished, as steam may escape.
