Operating Sequence - Electrolux ESL 424 Instruction Book

Operating sequence

1. Check the filters
Ensure they are clean and properly positioned (see
"Maintenance and cleaning").
2. Check that there is rinse aid and salt
3. Load the dishes
Remove any scraps of food.
Pull the lower basket out and arrange the saucepans,
plates and cutlery in it.
Pull the upper basket out and arrange the plates, saucers,
glasses and cups etc. in it.
Slide the baskets back into the machine.
4. Ensure that the spray arms can
rotate freely.
5. Measure out detergent
Add the required amount of detergent into the dispenser
according to the dosage quantity given in the "Washing
programmes" chart.
Close the detergent dispenser lid.
6. Set the programme
The selection of a programme occurs with the door
partially opened.
Turn the programme selector dial clockwise until the letter
of the programme you wish to select corresponds with the
programme marker on the control panel.
9. Start the programme
Depress the On/Off push button and close the door, the
machine will start.
If you wish to interrupt the washing programme at any
time open the door and press this button again.
10. At the end of the washing
programme
At the end of the programme the dishwasher will
automatically stop.
11. Switch off the dishwasher
Switch off the dishwasher by opening the
door and pressing the On/Off push button.
Wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this
way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.
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.
In general it is not advisable to open the door while the
machine is working; if the door is opened however, a
safety device ensures that the machine stops.
Important!
Care must be taken if the door is opened during the hot
phase or immediately after a programme has finished, as
steam may escape.
