Half load using the upper or lower rack
If there are not many dishes to be washed, a half load cycle
may be used in order to save water, electricity and detergent.
Select the wash cycle and press the HALF LOAD button
repeatedly: the triangle corresponding to the selected load will
illuminate and the wash cycle will take place only using the
upper or lower rack. If the button is pressed again, the option
will be deselected.
The Half Load option is not compatible with the Good
Night and Short Time options.
Remember to load the upper or lower rack only, and to
reduce the amount of detergent accordingly.
It is better to use powder detergent in this case.
This option is incompatible with the following wash
cycle: Speed wash and Baby cycle.
Delayed start
It is possible to delay the start time of the cycle for a period of
time between 1 and 24 hours.
1. After selecting the desired wash cycle and any other options,
press the DELAYED START button. The Delayed Start symbol
will begin to flash. Use the same button to select the time at which
you wish the wash cycle to begin (after a period of 1 to 24
hours).
2. Confirm the selection using the STAR/PAUSE button; the
symbol will stop flashing and the countdown will begin. The
text “Start in ” will be displayed, the selected delay time
will flash and the START/PAUSE button will remain lit in a
fixed manner.
3. When the set time has elapsed, a long beep sounds,
the DELAYED START indicator light switches off and the
wash cycle begins.
To deselect the DLEAYED START option, press the DELAYED
START button repeatedly until the text OFF appears.
The Delayed Start function cannot be set once a wash
cycle has been started.
Short Time option
This option can be used to reduce the duration of the main wash
cycles while maintaining the same washing and drying perfor-
mance levels.
After selecting the wash cycle, press the Short Time option but-
ton; the illumination of the corresponding indicator light followed
by a short beep indicates its selection.
To deselect the option, press the same button again.
Good Night option
This option reduces the amount of noise made by the machine
and lengthens the wash cycles. It is a useful option because it
enables users to benefit from the night-time energy rate.
After selecting the wash cycle, press the Good Night option
button; the illumination of the corresponding indicator light fol-
lowed by a short beep indicates its selection.
To deselect the option, press the same button again.
Multi-functional tablets
This option optimises washing and drying results.
When using multi-functional tablets, press the MULTI-
FUNCTIONAL TABLETS button; the corresponding indicator
light will illuminate. If the button is pressed again the option will
be deselected.
The “Multi-functional tablets” option results in the
lengthening of the wash cycle.
The MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option remains set
for subsequent wash cycles if it is not deselected.
The use of tablets is only recommended when the
MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option is available.
This option is not recommended for use with wash cycles
which do not specify the use of multi-functional tablets
(see Table of options).
The Short Time and Good Night options are not
compatible with each other.
The Short Time and Good Night options are not
compatible with the HALF LOAD option.
Extra drying
To improve the dryness level of the crockery, press the
EXTRA DRYING button; the indicator light will illuminate. If it is
pressed again the option will be deselected.
The EXTRA DRYING option increases the duration of
the wash cycle.
SELFCARE WASH CYCLE
This disinfecting wash cycle deep cleans the inside of the
dishwasher, thereby reducing the formation of bad odours.
WARNING
The SELFCARE wash cycle should be performed as part of
your dishwasher maintenance routine, using special single-
dose products (follow the instructions on the packaging)
while the dishwasher is EMPTY.
