As soon as the number of hours is displayed without

Once the delay start has elapsed the programme will

To cancel a washing programme

the running programme starts flashing for about 2
seconds. After about 2 seconds all the indicator lights will

the rinse aid and salt indicator lights) indicating that
the running programme has been cancelled.
If a new washing programme will be selected, check that
there is detergent in the detergent dispenser.
7. To cancel a "delay start"
To cancel a delay start you have to reset the dishwasher;
follow the same instructions given in "To cancel a washing
programme". Cancelling a delay start involves also the
cancelling of the setted washing programme.
In this case you have to set the washing programme
again.
8. End of the washing programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop.
The end of programme indicator light is illuminated.
In the digital display appears 0 (remaining programme
time), only in this case the programme has ended.
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.
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.
