Washing programs The dishwasher is equipped with a control panel an and 3-FIGURE DISPLAY (12), “section 3.1” described in chapter "3. Description of the controls", from which it is possible to carry out all the power switch-on, switch-off and programming operations. Before starting a washing program make sure that: •...
Page 16
ADVANCE PROGRAMS OPTION These 5 extra programs in addition to the previous ones can be selected directly using the program selector button. This button must be pressed (the light comes on) after selection of the “main” program (1,2,3,4 or 5). This function is retained in the memory, so the button has to be pressed again (the light goes out) if the user wishes to execute one of the 5 main programs at the next cycle.
Page 17

Page 18
If it is necessary to open dishwasher door during the washing cycle, there will be a 1-minute delay before the program can be resumed. After correctly closing the door, press the START/PAUSE button (4) again. This operation may negatively affective the progress of the washing cycle.
4. Operating instructions Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as follows: • Add the rinse aid and detergent. Using the rinse aid and detergent dispensers detergent rinse dispensers are situated on the inner part of the door: the detergent dispenser is on the left, and the rinse aid dispenser is on the right.
Page 20
ADJUSTING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER SETTING The dishwasher is factory set for medium water hardness. However it possible to change the setting by turning the dispenser’s selector to the desired position: the amount of rinse aid dispensed is proportional to the selector position.
Page 21
• When a program with hot prewash is selected (see program table), extra detergent must be placed in the cavity G/H. • Use only detergents specially formulated for dishwashers. For optimal washing results it is important to use a good quality detergent. •...
Page 22
The introduction of detergent into the rinse aid dispenser, even in liquid form, will damage the dishwasher. General warnings and recommendations Before using the dishwasher for the first time, it is advisable to read the following recommendations concerning dish types to be washed and their loading.
Page 23
• Make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that they cannot tip over or obstruct the rotation of the spray arms during the washing cycle. • Do not place very small objects in the baskets as these could fall and obstruct the spray arms or the wash pump.
Page 24
Using the baskets The dishwasher has a capacity of 15 place-settings, including serving dishes. LOWER BASKET The lower basket receives the full force of the lower spray arm, and should therefore be used for the “toughest” items with a heavier degree of soiling.
Page 25
Supports for cups and long objects (ladles, spoons, etc.), in the rear; can be tipped to the vertical position when not in use. Wine glass insert. Support for long-stem glasses. When lifted out of the stowed position (0) it snaps into three different positions (1-2- 2-position fold-down supports (1-2).
Page 26
To lie completely flat, lift the end and turn it towards you so that the retainer F rotates into place above point S. LOADING THE LOWER BASKET Carefully load flat plates, soup plates, dessert and serving dishes, positioning them vertically. Pots, pans and their covers must be loaded upside down.
Page 27
FLEXIBLE SPLIT CUTLERY TRAY This comprises two independent sliding, pull-out tray racks for easier loading/unloading of cutlery. Various loading systems and configurations are possible. For example, tea cups can be loaded with the right-hand rack set in the low position, while the left-hand rack or both can be removed to allow large dishes to be put in the top basket...
Page 28
STANDARD CUTLERY BASKET The basket has removable top grids into which items of cutlery should be inserted to keep them properly spaced and allow water to pass between them effectively. The top grids and central lid are in the bag of accessories.
Page 29
UPPER BASKET It is recommended to load the upper basket with small- or medium-sized items such as glasses, small plates, tea or coffee cups, shallow bowls and light objects made from heat resistant plastic. If the upper basket is used in the lowermost position, it can also be loaded with serving dishes, provided they are only slightly soiled.
Page 30
Accessories on upper basket: Supports for cups or long objects (ladles, spoons…), on the left; can be tipped to the vertical position when not in use. Long-stemmed glass holder, on the left; to use, simply lift and fix onto the hooks provided. Cutlery racks, on the right, designed for knives and teaspoons;...
Page 31
ADJUSTING THE UPPER BASKET The height of the top basket can be adjusted to allow large dishes or pans to be placed in the bottom basket. It is a third level adjustable upper basket and therefore can be adjusted to 3 different levels. The sides of the basket must always be set at the same height.
5. Cleaning and maintenance Before carrying out any work, always unplug the appliance from the electrical supply or switch off the all-pole disconnection device. General warnings and recommendations Avoid the use of acidic or abrasive detergents. Clean the outer surfaces and door-lining of the dishwasher regularly using a soft cloth moistened with water or with a normal detergent suitable for painted surfaces.

CLEANING THE FILTER UNIT • It is advisable to periodically inspect the centre filter C and, if necessary, to clean it. To remove the filter, grip the tabs, turn them anticlockwise and lift upwards; • push the centre filter D from the underside to remove it from the micro-filter: •...
Page 34
BEFORE STARTING THE DISHWASHER AFTER PROLONGED DISUSE: • Check that there are no deposits of sludge or rust inside the water pipe: if there are, allow the water to run from the water supply tap for a few minutes. • Plug the power cord back into the socket.
Page 35
If the dishes fail to dry or remain dull, check that: • there is rinse aid inside the special container; • the rinse aid dispenser setting is correct; • the detergent used is of good quality and has not lost its effectiveness (for example, through incorrect storage, with the box left open).
