PROGRAMME SELECTION AND SPECIAL FUNCTIONS

(Use in conjunction with programme guide)

Programme settings

■ Open the door and place the dirty dishes inside the appliance. ■ Press the "ON/OFF" button for about 2 seconds. The display will show two lines. ■ Choose a programme by pressing the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button. ■ If you wish to select an option, press the corresponding button (the indicator light will turn on).

The option buttons can be selected or deselected WITHIN one minute of the programme commencing.

■ Press the "START" button. The length of the program will be shown on the display alternating hours with minutes [e.g., 1 h (1 hour) / 25 (25 minutes)].

■ Close the door (after an audible signal has sounded, the programme will start automatically).

WITHIN one minute of the programme commencing, another programme can be selected, simply by pressing the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button.

"IMPULSE" programmes

The “IMPULSE” programmes use an impulse washing technology, which reduces consumption, noise and increases performances.

IMPORTANT

The “intermittent” working of the washing pump MUST NOT be considered a malfunction, it is a characteristic of the impulse washing so must be considered a normal function of the programme.

Programme interruption

Opening the door when a programme is running is not recommended, especially during the main wash and final hot rinse phases. However, if the door is opened while a programme is running (for example, to add dishes), the machine stops automatically and the display will flash the remaining time before the end of the cycle. Close the door without pressing any buttons. The cycle will start from where it left off.

WARNING!

If you open the door during the drying cycle, an audible audio signal advises you that the drying cycle has not yet finished.

Changing a running programme

Proceed as follows to change or cancel a running programme:

■ Open the door.

■ Hold the "RESET" button down for at least 3 seconds. "00" will appear on the display and some audible signals will sound.

■ The running programme will be cancelled. The display will show two lines.

■ At this point a new programme can be set.

WARNING!

Before starting a new programme, you should check that there is still detergent in the dispenser. If necessary, top up the dispenser.

If there is any break in the power supply while the dishwasher is operating, a special memory stores the selected programme and, when the power is restored, it continues where it left off.

Programme end

A 5 second alarm will sound (if not muted) 3 times at 30 second intervals to signal that the programme has ended.

The dishwasher will automatically switch off.

Option buttons

"EXPRESS" button

This button provides an average energy and time saving of 25% (depending on the selected cycle) by reducing the wash water temperature and the drying time during the final rinse.

This programme is recommended for lightly soiled dishes and for slightly wet dishes that are not fully dry, and it improves drying results. We advise you to leave the dishwasher door half-open at the end of the cycle to allow natural air circulation inside the dishwasher.

"ALL IN 1" button

This option optimises the use of "ALL in 1" ("3 in 1", "4 in 1", "5 in 1", etc.) combined detergents.

By pressing this button, the selected washing programme is modified to get the best performance from combined detergents (furthermore, the salt empty alert will be deactivated).

WARNING!

Once selected, this option remains active (light on) for subsequent washing cycles and can only be deactivated (light off) by pressing the button again.

IMPORTANT

This option is recommended when using the RAPID 24' programme, the duration of which will be extended by about 15 minutes, allowing detergent tablets to achieve better performance.

Salt empty alert

If your dishwasher requires filling with salt, the display will show and flash "SL" when the dishwasher is switched on.

The appearance of white stains on dishes is generally a warning sign that the salt container needs filling.

"DELAY START" button

1-23h

Dishwasher start time can be set with this button, delaying start from 1 to 23 hours.

Proceed as follows to set a delayed start:

■ Press the "DELAY START" button ("00" will appear on the display).

■ Press the button again to increase the delay in hours (each time the button is pressed the delay is increased by 1 hour to a maximum of 23).

■ To start the countdown, press the "START" button. At the end of the countdown, the programme will automatically start.

If you wish to see which programme has been selected, press the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button.

Proceed as follows to cancel a delayed start:

■ Hold the "RESET" button down for at least 3 seconds. "00" will appear on the display and some audible signals will sound. ■ The delayed start and the selected programme will be cancelled. The display will show two lines.

■ At this point, a new programme and option buttons must be set to start a new programme as indicated in the "PROGRAMME SETTINGS" section.

Alarm mute for the PROGRAMME END

The alarm for the programme end may be muted as follows:

IMPORTANT The dishwasher must ALWAYS be off before start of this procedure.

1. Hold down the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button and at the same time switch on the dishwasher by pressing the "ON/OFF" button (a brief audible signal will sound).
2. Keep the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button pressed for at least 15 seconds (during this time 2 audible signals will sound).
3. Release the button when the second audible signal sounds ("b1" will appear on the display to indicate that the alarm is on).
4. Press the same button again ("b0" will appear on the display to indicate that the alarm is off).
5. Turn off the dishwasher by pressing the "ON/OFF" button to confirm the new setting.

To turn the alarm on again, follow the same procedure.

The last programme used can be memorized by following the below:

IMPORTANT The dishwasher must ALWAYS be off before start of this procedure.

1. Hold down the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button and at the same time switch on the dishwasher by pressing the "ON/OFF" button (a brief audible signal will sound).

WARNING!

To ensure the correct operation of the anti-overflow safety device, we recommend that the dishwasher is not moved or tilted during operation.

AQUAPROTECT – PROTECTED INCOMING WATER PIPE

The main inlet pipe is contained within a protective transparent hose. In the event of damage occurring to the main inlet pipe any water leakage is retained within the transparent hose.

If water has leaked from the main inlet pipe there will be a visible sign within the transparent hose.

You may continue to complete the programme cycle but for safety we recommend the immediate replacement of the complete hose assembly.

If the hose is not long enough for correct connection, it must be replaced with a longer one.

The hose can be obtained from a Service Centre.

WATER SOFTENER UNIT

Depending on the source of the supply, water contains varying amounts of limestone and minerals which are deposited on the dishes leaving whitish stains and marks. The higher the level of these minerals present in the water, the harder the water is. The dishwasher is fitted with a water softener unit which, through the use of special regenerating salt, supplies softened water for washing the dishes. The degree of hardness of your water can be obtained from your water supply company.

Regulating the water softener with electronic programmer

The water softener can treat water with a hardness level of up to 90° fH (French grading) or 50° dH (German grading) through 8 settings.

The settings are listed in the table below:

Level	Water hardness		Use of regenerating salt	Water softener setting
	°fH (French)	°dH (German)
0	0-5	0-3	NO	d0
1	6-10	4-6	YES	d1
2	11-20	7-11	YES	d2
3	21-30	12-16	YES	d3
*4	31-40	17-22	YES	d4
5	41-50	23-27	YES	d5
6	51-60	28-33	YES	d6
7	61-90	34-50	YES	d7

* The softener unit is set in the factory at level 4 (d4) as this satisfies the requirements of the majority of users.

Regulate the setting of your water softener unit according to the degree of hardness of your water as follows:

IMPORTANT

The dishwasher must ALWAYS be off before start of this procedure.

1. Hold down the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button and at the same time switch on the dishwasher by pressing the "ON/OFF" button (a brief audible signal will sound).
2. Keep the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button pressed for at least 5 seconds, UNTIL an audible signal sounds. The current water softener setting level will be shown on the display.
3. Press the same button again to select the required water softener level: each time the button is pressed, the setting will increase by one level. When you have reached "d7", the display will go back to "d0".
4. Turn off the dishwasher by pressing the "ON/OFF" button to confirm the new setting.

WARNING!

If any problem occurs, turn the dishwasher off by pressing the "ON/OFF" button and start the procedure again from the beginning (STEP 1).
