PROGRAMME SELECTION
AND SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
(Use in conjunction with programme guide)
IMPORTANT
The dishwasher has two very practical
functions:
- the "recommended" programme
(which is set in the factory and is
ideal for full-load daily use) for quick
and accurate selection;
- the memory function which saves
the last programme used, so that if
you regularly use the same washing
cycle, you do not have to re-set the
programme every time, thereby
saving time and effort.
"DEGREE OF SOILING" button
(VARIO POWER)
This button offers a choice of three levels of
wash intensity, according to how dirty the
dishes are. The default setting for this
function is the intermediate one (central
indicator light on).
To set the intensity of wash, press the button
to increase (top indicator light) or reduce
(lower indicator light) this will modify the
wash time and the wash temperature.
The combination of 3 different wash intensity
with the four main wash programmes
(indicated on the control panel) enable to
have up to 12 different wash cycles.
IMPORTANT
When the dishwasher is switched on,
the "DEGREE OF SOILING" last used
will be indicated. If a programme has
been cancelled while in process, the
"DEGREE OF SOILING" setting will
return to intermediate (central indicator
light on).

phases. However, if the door is opened
while a programme is running (for example,

indicator light will remain on and the 3
“PROGRAMME STATUS” indicator lights
("WASH" , "DRY" , and "END" )
will light
singularly and in sequence to
indicate the current phase.
If there is any break in the power supply
while the dishwasher is operating, a
special memory stores the selected
