Starting A Washing Programme - Zanussi Electrolux ZSF 6161 S Instruction Book

Starting a washing programme

1. Check that the baskets have been
loaded correctly and that the spray
arms can rotate freely
2. Turn on the water tap
3. Close the dishwasher door
4. Press the On/Off button
The On/Off indicator light illuminates.
5. Setting and starting the programme
To select a programme, press the button of the
programme you wish to select, (see "Washing
programmes" chart), the indicator light of the button
illuminates and in the digital display will appear, flashing,
the running time of the programme that has been set (in
minutes).
The phase indicator lights foreseen for that programme will
illuminate.
After about 3 seconds from the last pressure of a button
the programme starts automatically.
In the digital display the running time of the programme is
no longer flashing and the indicator lights of the phases
will turn off except for the phase underway.
Setting and starting the programme with the
delay start
The setting of the delay start occurs before selecting
the programme
Press the delay start button until the flashing number of
the hours for the delay start will appear in the digital
display (from 1h to 19h).
Select a washing programme (see "Washing programmes"
chart). In the digital display will appear, for a moment, the
running time of the programme and then again appears
the selected delay start time.
As soon as the number of hours is displayed without
flashing, the countdown for the delay start is active.
The countdown will decrease with steps of 1 hour.
The opening of the door during the countdown will not
modify the delay start.
Once the delay start has elapsed the programme will
start automatically.
Note: it is possible to select a washing programme and
the delay start also with the door slightly opened.
In this case the start of the programme or of the
countdown will occur after the closure of the door.
Until that moment it is possible to modify the set made.
6. To interrupt or cancel a washing
programme in progress
Interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress
ONLY if it's absolutely necessary.
Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is
opened. Open the door carefully.
To interrupt a washing programme in
progress
a) Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop.
Close the door; the programme will start from the point
at which it was interrupted.
b) Press the On/Off button, in this case all the indicator
lights turn off. Press the On/Off button again; the
programme will start from the point at which it was
interrupted.
To cancel a washing programme in
progress
To cancel a washing programme you have to reset the
dishwasher; press simultaneously the function buttons 2
and 3 for about 2 seconds. After about 2 seconds all the
indicator lights will turn off (except for the On/Off indicator
light and eventually the rinse aid and salt indicator lights)
indicating that the running programme has been cancelled.
If a new washing programme is to be selected, check that
there is detergent in the detergent dispenser.
7. To cancel a delay start
To cancel a delay start in progress you have to reset the
dishwasher; follow the same instructions given in "To
cancel a washing programme in progress". Cancelling a
delay start involves also the cancelling of the washing
programme set.
In this case you have to set the washing programme
again.
8. End of the washing programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop.
The End indicator light is illuminated.
The indicator light of the programme just ended will remain
on.
In the digital display appears 0, only in this case the
programme has ended.
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button.
Open the dishwasher's door, leave it ajar and wait a few
minutes before removing the dishes; in this way they will
be cooler and the drying will be improved.
9. Unloading the dishwasher
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should
therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from
the appliance.
Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this
will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the
dishes in the lower one.
Water may appear on the sides and the door of the
dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become
cooler than the dishes.
When the washing programme has finished, it is
recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the
water tap turned off.
