1) The pressure and the temperature of the water, the variations of the mains supply, the options and the quantity of

dishes can change the programme duration and the consumption values.

2) This programme has a high temperature rinsing phase for better hygiene results. During the rinsing phase, the

temperature stays at 70 °C for 10 to 14 minutes.

3) With this programme you can wash a load with fresh soil. It gives good washing results in a short time.

4) With this programme you have the most efficient use of water and energy consumption for crockery and cutlery

with normal soil. (This is the standard programme for test institutes).

5) Use this programme to quickly rinse the dishes. This prevents the remaining food to bond on the dishes and bad

odours to come out from the appliance. Do not use detergent with this programme.

• First remove the items from the lower basket, then from the upper basket.

• There can be water on the sides and on the door of the appliance. Stain- less steel becomes cool more quick- ly than the dishes.

The water softener Hard water contains a high quantity of min- erals that can cause damage to the appli- ance and bad washing results. The water softener neutralises these minerals. The dishwasher salt keeps the water soft- ener clean and in good conditions. It is im- portant to set the right level of the water softener. This makes sure that the water softener uses the correct quantity of dish- washer salt and water. Loading the baskets Refer to the supplied leaflet with exam- ples of the load of the baskets.

• Only use the appliance to wash items that are dishwasher-safe.

• Do not put in the appliance items made of wood, horn, aluminium, pewter and copper.

• Do not put in the appliance items that can absorb water (sponges, household cloths).

• Remove remaining food from the items.

• To remove easily remaining burned food, soak pots and pans in water before you put them in the appliance.

• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and pans) with the opening down.

• Make sure that cutlery and dishes do not bond together. Mix spoons with other cutlery.

• Make sure that glasses do not touch oth- er glasses.

• Put the small items in the cutlery basket.

• Put the light items in the upper basket. Make sure that they do not move.

• Make sure that the spray arms can move freely before you start a programme. Using salt, rinse aid and detergent

• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent for dishwasher. Other products can cause damage to the appliance.

• The rinse aid helps, during the last rinsing phase, to dry the dishes without streaks and stains.

• Combi detergent tablets contain deter- gent, rinse aid and other added agents. progress 21Be sure that these tablets are applicable to the water hardness in your area. Refer to the instructions on the packaging of the products.

• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with short programmes. To prevent de- tergent residues on the tableware, we recommend that you use the tablets with long programmes. Do not use more than the correct quantity of detergent. Refer to the in- structions on the detergent packaging. Before starting a programme Make sure that:

• The filters are clean and correctly instal- led.

• The spray arms are not clogged.

• The position of the items in the baskets is correct.

• The programme is applicable for the type of load and for the degree of soil.

• The correct quantity of detergent is used.

• There is dishwasher salt and rinse aid (unless you use combi detergent tablets).

• The cap of the salt container is tight.

Warning! Before maintenance, deactivate the appliance and disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket. Dirty filters and clogged spray arms de- crease the washing results. Make a check regularly and, if neces- sary, clean them. Cleaning the filters

1. Turn the filter (A) counterclockwise and

2. To disassemble the filter (A), pull apart

3. Remove the filter (B).

4. Wash the filters with water.

5. Put the filter (B) to its initial position.

Make sure that it assembles correctly under the two guides (C). 22 progress6. Assemble the filter (A) and put it into position in filter (B). Turn it clockwise until it locks. An incorrect position of the filters can cause bad washing results and dam- age to the appliance. Cleaning the spray arms Do not remove the spray arms. If the holes in the spray arms are clogged, remove remaining parts of soil with a thin pointed object. External cleaning Clean the appliance with a moist soft cloth. Only use neutral detergents. Do not use abrasive products, abrasive cleaning pads or solvents. TROUBLESHOOTING The appliance does not start or it stops during operation.
