3.2 Washing programs
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.
HALF LOAD WASH SETTING (certain models only)
This function is especially suitable for loads up to 6 place settings and allows saving of water and
electricity. It is controlled by the HALF LOAD button (6) and allows washing in the upper basket
only.
IMPORTANT: at the end of the program remember to deactivate the function to ensure the next
wash is not also carried out in half load mode by mistake.
A cutlery basket can be placed in the upper basket, while the lower basket must be left empty.
CAUTION: there is no point in loading dishes and cutlery in the lower basket, since the jet of
water will only reach the upper basket.
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.
• 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.
