that the machine is waiting for a selection to be
made.

Half load button
By pressing this button it is possible to wash a
small quantity of crockery using only the upper
basket for dishes and cutlery in the bottom
basket.
This reduces energy consumption and requires
a smaller quantity of detergent.
The button reduces the temperature of the
water during the last rinse. This activates a
natural drying process, as with a normal
draining board, simply by leaving the door ajar
at the end of the cycle to enable the natural
circulation of air.
Interrupting a programme
It is not recommended that the door be opened
while a programme is running, and especially
not during the main wash phase and final
drying.
However, the appliance stops automatically
when the door is opened. At this point the
button can be programmed or cancelled.
When the door is closed again, the programme
continues automatically. If you wish to change
or cancel a programme which is running, carry
out the following procedure:
keeping the Programme Selection Button
pressed in until all 5 indicator lights are flashing.
A new setting can now be made.
NB: If, on pressing the Programme Selection
Button the indicator lights start flashing
alternately, it means that there is water in the
machine.
Release the Programme Selection button
and the machine will automatically empty the
water; wait for the audible signal, after which the
new programme can be set.
Before starting a new programme, you should
check that there is still detergent in the dispenser.
If necessary, top up the dispenser.
End of programme
The end of the programme is indicated by an
audible signal. The 5 programme selection
indicator lights start flashing. Release the
On/Off button.
Activating and Deactivating the audible
signal
The audible signal function can be deactivated
in the following way:
keep the Programme Selection Button
pressed in for a few seconds and at the same
time press the On/Off button; if the three
indicator lights “INTENSIVE programme”,
“DAILY programme” and “RAPID 32’
programme” are illuminated, the audible signal
is activated. By pressing the Programme
Selection Button again, the “UNIVERSAL
programme” and “ECO programme” lights
will come on, which means that the audible
signal has been deactivated. An audible signal
sounds to indicate that the setting has been
stored in memory.
