Option buttons
IMPORTANT
All options MUST be turned on or off,
BEFORE pressing "START" button.
“3 in 1” button
This option optimises the use of “3 in 1”
combined detergents. By pressing this
button, the selected washing programme is
modified to get the best performance from
combined detergents; furthermore, the salt
and rinse aid shortage lights are de-activated.
WARNING!
Once selected, this option keeps
being on (light on) also for next
washing cycles and it can be de-activate
(light off) only by pressing the button
once again.
IMPORTANT
When this option is selected, the
"RAPID" cycle is 10 minutes longer.
"HPS" button
The "HPS" option always guarantees the
best results by more effectively dealing
with heavier soiling. By using this option,
the strength of the selected cycle will be
increased, adding one rinse and increasing
the temperature and water pressure in the
washing phase where foreseen.
This option is recommended for very dirty
dishes or when dirty dishes may not have
been pre-treated allowing the soiling to dry up.
IMPORTANT
With this option selected the “IMPULSE”
wash is turned off.
"1/2" AUTO button
In response to your everyday washing
requirement in addition to the normal wash
functions this dishwasher is equipped with
the “1/2 AUTO” function. This function
enables the uses to wash a reduced
number of dishes yet retaining the freedom
of loading them both on the top and bottom
basket.
When this function is activated the dishwasher
will automatically reduce the water and
energy consumption and the wash time.
When selecting the “1/2 AUTO” ensure a
reduced amount of detergent is used.

PROGRAMME SELECTION
AND SPECIAL FUNCTIONS
(Use in conjunction with programme guide)
IMPORTANT
The dishwasher has two very practical
functions:
- the "recommended" programme
(which is ideal for full load daily use)
for quick and accurate selection;
- the "Auto’ Memory", function saves
any programme used at least 3 times
consecutively, so that if you regularly
use the same washing cycle you
do not have to continually set the
programme thereby saving time and
effort.
Program settings
■ Open the door and place dirty dishes
inside the appliance.
■ Press the "ON/OFF" button .
■ After pressing the "ON/OFF" button, the
symbol of the programme which is
factory set at "recommended” or the
symbol for the "Auto’ Memory" programme
will appear on the display.
■ To select an option, press the
corresponding button (the indicator light
will turn on).
Option buttons must be pressed
BEFORE starting the programme for
them to be accepted.
■ To set another programme, press the
"PROGRAMME SELECTION" button ("P").
■ When the required programme is shown
in the display, press the "START" button.
The length of the program will be shown on
the display alternating hours with minutes
[I.e.: 1 h (1 hour) / 25 (25 minutes)].
■ Close the door (after an audible signal
has sounded, the programme will start
automatically).
“AUTOMATIC” programmes
The dishwasher is equipped with a dirt
sensor, able to analyse water murkiness
during all "AUTOMATIC" programme
phases (see programme list); thanks to
this sensor the washing cycle parameters
are automatically adapted to the real
quantity of dirt on dishes. Thus excellent
washing results are guaranteed while
optimising water and energy consumption.
"IMPULSE" programmes
The “IMPULSE” programmes use an
impluse washing technology, which reduces
consumption, noise and increases
performances.
IMPORTANT
The “intermittent” working of the
washing pump MUST NOT BE
considered a malfunction, it is a
characteristic of the impulse washing
so must be considered a normal
function of the programme.
Programme interruption
Opening the door when a programme is
running is not recommended especially
during the main wash and final hot rinse
phases. However, if the door is opened
while a programme is running (for example,
to add dishes) the machine stops
automatically and the display will flash the
remaining time before the end of the cycle.
Close the door, without pressing any
buttons. The cycle will start from where it
left off.
WARNING!
If you open the door during the
drying cycle, an audible audio signal
advises you that the drying cycle has
not yet finished.
Changing a running programme
Proceed as follows to change or cancel a
running programme:
■ Open the door.
■ Hold the "START" button down for at
least 5 seconds (the running programme
will be cancelled).
■ 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.
Programme operations
When a programme is running, the time
until the end of the cycle will be displayed
and the 4 “PROGRAMME STATUS”
indicator lights:
= "PREWASH"
= "WASH"
= "RINSE"
= "DRY"
will light singularly and in sequence to
indicate the current phase.
Programme end
A5 second buzzer will sound (if not muted)
3 times at 30 second intervals to signal that
the programme has ended. Dishes can
now be removed and the dishwasher
turned off by pressing the "ON/OFF"
button or dishes can be loaded for a new
cycle.
