Wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery - to avoid burns.
Unload the racks, beginning with the lower one.
The machine will switch off automatically during certain extended
periods of inactivity, in order to minimise electricity consumption.
If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if it has been rinsed with
water before being placed in the dishwasher, reduce the amount
of detergent used accordingly.
MODIFYING A RUNNING PROGRAM
If a wrong program was selected, it is possible to change it, provided
that it has only just begun: open the door (beware of HOT steam!),
press and hold the ON/OFF button, the machine will switch off.

new wash cycle and any desired options; start the cycle by pressing the
START button and closing the door.
ADDING EXTRA CROCKERY
Without switching off the machine, open the door (the “:” stop blinking
and START led starts blinking) (beware of HOT steam!) and place the
crockery inside the dishwasher. Press the START button and close the
door within 4 sec., the cycle will resume from the point at which it was
interrupted.
ACCIDENTAL INTERRUPTIONS
If the door is opened during the wash cycle, or if there is a power cut,
the cycle stops. To resume the cycle from where it was interrupted,
press the START button and close the door.
ADVICE AND TIPS
TIPS
Before loading the baskets, remove all food residues from the crockery
and empty the glasses. You do not need to rinse beforehand under
running water.
Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not tip
over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards
and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing the
water to reach every surface and flow freely.
Warning: lids, handles, trays and frying pans do not prevent the
sprayer arms from rotating.
Place any small items in the cutlery basket.
Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower basket
because in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher
washing performance.
After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can rotate
freely.
HYGIENE
To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the
dishwasher please run a high temperature program at least once a
month. Use a tea spoon of detergent and run it without the loading to
clean your appliance.
UNSUITABLE CROCKERY
Wooden crockery and cutlery.
Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique
crockery. Their decorations are not resistant.
Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high
temperatures.
Copper and tin crockery.
Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can
change and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass (e.g.
crystal objects) can become opaque after a number of wash cycles too.
DAMAGE TO GLASS AND CROCKERY
Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the manufacturer as
dishwasher safe.
Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery
Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as the
wash cycle is over.
