1 INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing one of our products. To use this dishwasher correctly and safely, please read this manual carefully. The manual is divided into sections giving you a step-by-step guide to all your ap- pliance’s functions. The texts are easy to understand and are com- plete with detailed illustrations. This user-friendly manual will provide answers to all your questions about use of the dishwasher. Before using this dishwasher, carefully read chapter 2 “Use and safety warnings” of the attached general manual. For any other information about use and maintenance of the dish- washer, read the enclosed general manual carefully. This manual comprises the following sections: INTRODUCTION: general information about the manual USER INSTRUCTIONS: advice on using the washing programs and information about all the dishwasher functions. Nomenclature of fi gures and tables: The progressive number of each fi gure is shown in the bottom right- hand corner of the relative box. An example of a progressive number is “Fig. 4-01”, where the fi rst number (4) indicates the section to which the fi gure belongs, while the second number (01) indicates the progressive number of the fi gure in section 4 (Fig. 4-01 is the fi rst fi gure in section 4). The tables are numbered in the same way, bearing in mind that “Tab.” is used instead of “Fig.” (e.g.: Tab. 4-01 is the fi rst table in section 4). If a table occupies more than one page, a letter is added after the progressive number (e.g.: “Tab. 4-01a”, Tab. 4-01b”).4 Rev 0.0 INTRODUCTION

Only run the soak program with half loads. After using the above table to choose the most suitable washing cycle, pro- gram the appliance.

Before starting a washing program, make sure that:

• The water supply tap is open.

• There is regenerating salt in the water softener tank (to add salt, see the instructions in the general manual).

• The correct amount of detergent has been added to the dis- penser (to add detergent, see the instructions in the general manual).

• The spray arms are able to rotate freely and without obstruction.

• The racks have been correctly loaded (see the instructions in the general manual).

• The dishwasher door is securely closed.

Press the on/off button (ref. 1 fi g. 2-02) to start the dishwasher. Then wait for one of the program indicator lights to turn on (ref. 2 fi g. 2-02).

2.2.2 Selecting and starting the program

• Press the program selection button (ref. 3 fi g. 2-02) several times until the indicator light corresponding to the required program turns on (ref. 2 fi g. 2-02);

• if necessary, select, using the relative buttons, the complementary functions you are interest in (e.g. “Programming delay”);

• close the door; the program will start after about 2 seconds and the relative indicator light will fl ash throughout the cycle (program running signal). If the door of the dishwasher has not been closed or has been incor- rectly closed, the washing cycle will not begin.

• Always try to run the dishwasher fully loaded.

• Do not wash the dishes under a running tap.

• Use the most suitable washing program for each type of load.

• If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water system with a tempera- ture of up to 60°C (140°F).

3.1 Reducing the consumption of detergent

and respecting the environment The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the envi- ronment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to save on elec- tricity:

• Separate the more delicate items from those that are more resistant to ag- gressive detergents and high temperatures;

4 REMOVING THE DISHES

At the end of the washing program, wait at least 20 minute before removing the dishes in order to allow them to cool. To prevent any water droplets on the upper rack from falling onto the dishes in the lower rack, empty the lower rack fi rst and then the upper one.Rev 0.0 15 USER INSTRUCTIONS
