ONLY if it's absolutely necessary.
Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is

To cancel a washing programme in

dishwasher; press simultaneously the function push
buttons 2 and 3 until 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.
7. End of the washing programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop and the end of
programme phase indicator light (END) will illuminate.
The indicator light of the programme just ended will
remain on.
If the door is not immediately opened at the end of the
programme, air will circulate inside the dishwasher to
prevent residual steam recondensing on the dishes as
water droplets.
This device operates intermittently for about 20 minutes,
as long as the dishwasher is switched on.
if the On/Off push button is pressed or the door is
opened during these 20 minutes, the device will be
automatically cancelled.
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push
button, the On/Off indicator light turns off.
Open the door and wait a few minutes before removing
the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying
will be improved.
Water may appear on the sides and the door of the
dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become
cooler than the dishes.
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.
When the washing programme has finished, it is
recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the
water tap turned off.
