Detergent dispenser
To open the detergent dispenser use the opening device A. Introduce the detergent into the dry dispenser B only. Place the amount of detergent for pre-washing directly inside the tub. Compartment B comprises a level showing the maximum quantity of liquid or powder detergent that can be added to each cycle. Close the lid of the detergent dispenser by pulling it up until the closing device is secured in place. If using all-in-one detergents, we recommend using the TABLET button, because it adjusts the program so that the best washing and drying results are always achieved.
Programs Table
ECO - normally soiled crockery. Standard program, the most efficient in terms of its combined energy and water consumption.
INTENSIVE - Program recommended for heavily soiled crockery, especially suitable for pans and saucepans (not to be used for delicate items).
NORMAL – Normally soiled crockery, everyday cycle that ensures optimal cleaning performance in shorter time.
RAPID 30′ - Program to be used for lightly-soiled dishes with no dried food residues.
PRE-WASH - Crockery to be washed later. No detergent to be used with this
program.
To reduce consumption even further, only run the dishwasher when it is full.
Options and functions
Half Load - If there are not many dishes to be washed, a half load cycle may be used on order to save water, electricity and detergent. Select the program and press the Half Load button: the indicator light will light up. Press the Half Load button to deselect this option.
Delay - It is possible to delay the start time of the program by 2, 4 or 8 hours. After selecting the desired program and any other options, press the Delay button. The indicator light will go on. Select the desired delay time by pressing the Delay button repeatedly. The 2 hours, 4 hours and 8 hours indicator lights will go on in succession. If the Delay button is pressed again, the option is deselected and the indicator light goes off. After the selection process, the countdown will begin if the Start/Pause button is pressed. The selected delay-period indicator light flashes and the Start/Pause button stops flashing (fixed light). Once this time has elapsed, the Delay indicator light goes off and the program begins.
The Delay function cannot be set once a program has started.
Tablet (Tab) This setting allows you to optimize the performance of the program according to the type of detergent used. Press the Tablet button (the indicator light will light up) if you use combined detergents in tablet form (rinse aid, salt and detergent in 1 dose). If you use powder or liquid detergent, this option should be off.
Drain Out - To stop and cancel the active cycle, the Drain Out function can be used. A long press of StartPause button, will activate the Drain out function. The active program will be stopped and the water in the dishwasher will be drained out.
