PROGRAM SELECTION
AND SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
(Use in conjunction with programme guide)
Program settings
■ Open the door and place dirty dishes
inside the appliance.
■ Press the "ON/OFF" button .
■ After pressing the "ON/OFF" button.
The LED for the factory set is
"recommended” (which is ideal for full
load daily use) or the LED for the "Auto’
Memory" program (see below) will blink.
IMPORTANT
The dishwasher has two very practical
functions:
- the "recommended" program
( ) for quick and sure selection;
- the "Auto’ Memory", function which
saves a program used at least 3
times consecutively so that if you
regularly use the same washing cycle
each time you do not have to
continually set the program thereby
saving time and effort.
■ If you wish to select an option, press the
option button (the corresponding LED
will light).
The option button must be pressed
BEFORE the program starts for the
option to be accepted.
■ To choose another program, press the
corresponding button (the relevant LED
will blink to confirm the selection).
IMPORTANT
To select the "COLD RINSE" program,
simultaneously press the "RAPID"
program button and "HALF LOAD"
option button (the relevant LEDs will
blink, confirming the selection).
■ To start the program, press the selected
program button again to confirm. The
relevant LED will stop blinking and
remain on and, when the door is shut,
the program will start automatically.
IMPORTANT
To confirm the “COLD RINSE” program,
simultaneously press the “RAPID”
program button and the “HALF
LOAD” option button (the relevant
LEDs will stop blinking and remain
on to confirm the selection).
If the previously described operations
were performed with the door open, the
program will not start until the door is
closed.
Program interruption
Opening the door when a program is
running is not recommended especially
during the main washing and final hot rinse
phases. However, if the door is opened
while a program is running (for example,
to add dishes) the machine stops
automatically.
Close the door, without pressing any
buttons. The cycle will start from where it
left off (if it is necessary, the appliance
will make a short thermal anti-shock
programme before).
IMPORTANT
A running program can be interrupted
without opening the door by
pressing the "ON/OFF" button. In
this case, simply press the "ON/OFF"
button again to restart the cycle from
where it left off.

Changing a running program
Proceed as follows to change or cancel a
running program:
■ Hold down the current program button
(with the LED on) for at least 3 seconds.
The program LEDs (except for the
"RAPID" program LED) will blink until all
water is drained (if necessary).
The running program will be cancelled
and the corresponding LED will start to
blink.
IMPORTANT
To cancel the "COLD RINSE" program,
simultaneously hold down the
"RAPID" program button and "HALF
LOAD" option button (the relevant
LEDs will blink to confirm cancellation).
■ At this point a new program can be set.
WARNING!
Before starting a new programme,
you should check that there is still
detergent in the dispenser.
If necessary, top up the dispenser.
If there is any break in the power supply
while the dishwasher is operating, a
special memory stores the selected
programme and, when the power is
restored, it continues where it left off (if
it is necessary, the appliance will make
a short thermal anti-shock programme
before).
Program operations
When a program is running the relevant
LED will remain on and the 3 “PROGRAM
STATUS” LEDs ("WASH" , "RINSE" ,
and "DRY" ) will light singularly and in
sequence to indicate the current phase.
Program end
The “PROGRAM STATUS” LEDs will turn
off and the selected program LED (2 LEDs
for the "COLD RINSE" program) will blink
to indicate that the cycle has ended.
Dishes can now be removed and the
dishwasher turned off by pressing the
"ON/OFF" button or dishes can be loaded
for new cycle.
Option button
"HALF LOAD" button
By using this option, it is possible to wash
a smaller quantity of crockery: you should
load only the upper basket for dishes and
place cutlery in the tray in the bottom
basket.
This reduces water and energy consump-
tion and requires a smaller quantity of
detergent.
IMPORTANT
This button MUST be set BEFORE the
program starts.
"DELAY START" button
Dishwasher start time can be set with this
button, delaying the start by 3, 6 or 9 hours.
Proceed as follows to set a delayed start:
■ Press the "DELAY START" button (each
time the button is pressed the start
will be delayed by 3, 6 or 9 hours
respectively and the corresponding time
LED will light).
■ To start countdown, press the selected
program button (the relevant LED will
stop blinking and remain on, while the
set time LED will start to blink).
If a 9 hour delay is set, countdown will be
displayed by the 6h LED after 3 hours and
the 3h LED after 6 hours.
