Turning on the Appliance

First of all.
Turn on the water tap completely and press ON-OFF button
"A". you will hear a short beep and indicator light "B" lights
up.
Now the appliance is on and awaiting instructions.

Starting and selecting the cycle.
Turn the cycle selector knob "D" clockwise until the reference
notch on the knob corresponds with the number or symbol
for the cycle you wish to set (consult the wash cycle table on
page 17, especially when first using the appliance).
If the appliance door is shut, press the Start button "R" and
you will hear a beep; the cycle will start up within a few
seconds.

Cycle phase indicator lights
The dishwasher is provided with 4 indicator lights "G" which
come on in sequence as the appliance is performing that
specific phase of the wash cycle.
These phases are:

pre-wash, wash, rinses, drying

Cancelling or modifying a wash cycle in progress…..
Premise: You can cancel the wash cycle in progress, if it has
only just started.
To modify a wash cycle, keep the RESET button "R" pressed
for about 5 seconds: a prolonged beep will sound, followed
by three short beeps. Indicator light "G" will turn off and at
this point, all the settings will have been cancelled.
To select a new wash cycle, repeat the operations illustrated
in the paragraph entitled "starting and selecting the cycle".

Warning: the knob must be turned clockwise from wash
cycle 1 to 5, an anti-clockwise from wash cycle 5 to 1.
If you have left out a dish…
You can interrupt a wash cycle by pressing the ON-OFF
button, then place the dishes you had left out into the
appliance, which will start up from where it was interrupted
when you turn it back on.

There's been a power failure? Have you opened the
dishwasher door?
The wash cycle stops and then restarts when the electricity
comes back on or when the door is shut.

At the end of the wash cycle….
The end of the wash cycle is indicated by two short beeps
and the flashing of the drying phase indicator light.
• Press button "A" to turn the appliance off.
• Turn off the water tap.
• Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishes: if you
wait a little while, they dry better thanks to the steam.
• Empty the lower rack first.

Warning: when you open the dishwasher door after the wash
cycle has just ended or is under way, take care not to scald
yourself with the hot steam.

You decide when it starts.

When you have loaded the dishes, you can choose when to
start your dishwasher before setting the wash cycle desired.
Press button "H" to delay the start of the wash cycle by 12,
9, 6 or 3 hours. Each time you press it, you will hear a short
beep and the indicator light "G" corresponding to the selected
delay will come on.
Now you can select the desired wash cycle and, after you
hear the beep, the countdown to the delayed start will begin.

If you have set a 12 hour delay, for example, once you have
selected the wash cycle, the 12 hour indicator light will flash
followed by the others in sequence until the set time delay is
up. A quick look at the indicator lights will keep you informed
of the countdown progress at all times.

Dual function of indicator lights "G"
1) flashing to indicate a delayed start: to remind you
that you have set a delayed start;

2) on and not flashing beneath the cycle phase symbol:
meaning the cycle has started and is in the phase indicated
by the symbol.
Have you changed your mind?
If you change your mind, you can set a shorter time delay:
press button "H" to select it. You need not reset the wash
cycle.

If on the other hand you want to cancel the delay set and
you want the cycle to start immediately, press button "H"
repeatedly until the cycle starts and indicator light "G"
corresponding to the cycle start phase comes on.
