(see below).

switch on (fixed light). Switch off the appliance by pressing
the ON/OFF button, shut off the water valve and unplug the
appliance from the electricity socket.
9. Wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery, in
order to avoid burns. Unload the racks, beginning with the

certain periods of inactivity, in order to minimise
electricity consumption.
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: once the wash cycle has started, switch
off the machine by pressing and holding the ON/OFF/Reset
button. Switch it back on using the same button and select
the desired wash cycle and options.
Adding extra crockery
Press the Start/Pause button (the corresponding indicator
light will flash). Open the door, taking care to avoid
the escaping steam, and place the crockery inside the
appliance. Press the Start/Pause button (fixed light): the cycle
starts from the point at which it was interrupted.
If the Start/Pause button is pressed so as to pause the
machine, the wash cycle or the Delayed Start
(if selected) is interrupted.
At this stage it is not possible to change the wash cycle.
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 once
the electricity supply is restored.

Measuring out the detergent

A good wash result also depends on the correct amount
of detergent being used; exceeding the stated amount
does not result in a more effective wash and increases
environmental pollution.
Only use detergent which has been specifically
designed for dishwashers.
DO NOT USE washing up liquid.
Using excessive detergent may result in foam
residue remaining in the machine after the cycle has
ended.
The use of tablets is only recommended for models
which offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option.
To achieve the best results from each washing and
drying cycle, powder detergent, rinse aid liquid and
salt should be used.
