Loading the racks Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and cups. After loading the appliance, check that the sprayer arms can rotate freely. Lower rack The lower rack can hold pans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery, etc. as seen in the Loading examples. Plates and large covers should be placed at the sides of the rack, ensuring that they do not block the rotation of the upper sprayer arm.

Open the door and pour in a suitable amount of detergent (see below). 4. Load the racks (see Loading the racks) and shut the door. 5. Select the wash cycle in accordance with the type of crockery and its soil level (see Table of wash cycles) by pressing the P button. 6. Select the wash options* (see adjacent information). 7.
Half load using the upper rack* If there are not many dishes to be washed, a half load cycle may be used in order to save water, electricity and detergent. Select the wash cycle and press the HALF LOAD button: the indicator light will illuminate and the wash cycle will take place only in the upper rack. Remember to load the upper rack only, and to reduce the amount of detergent accordingly. It is better to use powder detergent in this case.
Wash cycles EN 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. The number and type of wash cycles and options may vary depending on the dishwasher model. Wash cycle selection instructions Heavily soiled dishes and pans (not to be used for delicate items).
Rinse aid and refined salt Only use products which have been specifically designed for dishwashers. Do not use table salt or industrial salt, or washing up liquid. Follow the instructions given on the packaging. If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add rinse aid; however, we recommend that you add salt, especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or very hard. Follow the instructions given on the packaging.
Care and maintenance EN Shutting off the water and electricity supplies Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to avoid leaks. Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it and when performing maintenance work. Cleaning the dishwasher The external surfaces of the machine and the control panel may be cleaned using a non-abrasive cloth which has been dampened with water. Do not use solvents or abrasive products.
Precautions and advice The appliance was designed and manufactured in compliance with current international safety standards. The following information has been provided for safety reasons and should therefore be read carefully. General safety The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use. The appliance must be used by adults only, to wash domestic crockery according to the instructions in this manual.
EN Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents containing enzymes We strongly recommend that you use detergents that do not contain phosphates or chlorine, as these products are harmful to the environment. Enzymes provide a particularly effective action at temperatures around 50°C, and as a result detergents containing enzymes can be used in conjunction with low-temperature wash cycles in order to achieve the same results as a normal 65°C wash cycle.
