Modifying a wash cycle in progress
If a mistake was made during the wash cycle
selection process it is possible to change the cycle,
provided that it has only just begun: open the door,
taking care to avoid the escaping steam, and press
the WASH CYCLE SELECT button, holding it for 4
seconds. After one long beep and three short
beeps, the WASH CYCLE indicator light will switch
off: select the new wash cycle and start the
programme by shutting the door.
Adding extra crockery
Open the door, taking care to avoid the escaping
steam, and place the crockery inside the
dishwasher. Close the door: the cycle starts from the
point at which it was interrupted.
Accidental interruptions
If the door is opened during the wash cycle, or if
there is a power cut, the cycle stops. It starts again
from the point at which it was interrupted once the
door has been shut or the electricity supply is
restored.

Loading the detergent

A successful wash also depends on the correct
amount of detergent being used, as recommended
by the manufacturer. Exceeding the recommended
amount does not result in a more effective wash and
pollutes the environment.

Washing options

Delayed start
It is possible to delay the start time of the cycle by
2, 4 or 6 hours.
1. Press the DELAYED START button: every time the
button is pressed, a beep is emitted and the
selected delayed start indicator light illuminates.
2. Select the wash cycle and shut the door: after the
beep sounds, the timer begins counting down.
3. Once this time has elapsed, the indicator light
switches off and the wash cycle begins.
To adjust the delay time and select a smaller period
of time, press the DELAYED START button. To
cancel it, press the button repeatedly until the
selected delayed start indicator light switches off.
The wash cycle will start automatically as soon as
the door is shut.
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. Before selecting the wash
cycle press the HALF LOAD button repeatedly: the
indicator light will illuminate and the wash cycle will
take place only in the upper or the lower rack.
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.
Extra drying*
To make sure that the crockery is completely dry at
the end of the cycle, press the EXTRA DRYING
button before selecting the wash cycle. A prolonged
beep will sound to indicate that this option has been
selected and a short beep will sound to indicate
when it has been deselected.
 This option is incompatible with the soak cycle.
 If the Extra drying option is selected, the wash
cycles will last longer.
