How to load your dishes
Before washing, a few small steps can help you get a better wash and keep your dishwasher for longer.
Remove the largest scraps of food left over on your plates, soak saucepans and frying pans with tough
incrustations. After loading your dishes, make sure the blades on the sprayer arm turn well
First of all.
Before placing the dishes in the
racks, remove the largest scraps
of food left over on your plates, you
will thus avoid blocking the filter,
which would reduce the efficacy
of the wash.
If the saucepans and frying pans
are very dirty, allow them to soak
before being washed. To make it
easier to load your dishes, pull the
racks out.
What goes into the
lower rack?
We recommend you place the most
difficult dishes to wash into the
lower rack: saucepans, lids, soup
dishes and plates (a load example
is shown in the photo).
Serving dishes and large
lids: place them on the sides
of the rack.
Saucepans, salad bowls:
must always be placed upside
down
Very deep dishes: place
them obliquely, thus allowing
water to run down them and
cleaning them better
The cutlery basket is equipped with
two removable grids: insert the
cutlery one by one into the slots,
with the handles at the bottom.
Knives and utensils with sharp
blades or tips should be positioned
with the sharp parts at the bottom..
Position them so that they don't
touch.
The appliance can also be equipped
with one or two tip-up compartments onto which you can place
mugs and cups, as well as long sharp
knives and serving cutlery.
What goes into the
upper rack?
Place delicate and lightweight dishes in the upper rack: glasses, tea
cups and coffee cups, saucers - but
plates too - shallow salad bowls,
slightly dirty frying pans and
shallow pans (the photo illustrates
a few examples).
Position lightweight dishes in such
a way as to avoid their being moved by the spray of water.
After loading the dishes, remember to check that the blades on the
sprayer arms can turn freely without knocking against any dishes.
How to adjust the top
rack.
The upper rack can be set in high
or low position to enable you to
organise your dishes effortlessly.

Starting the dishwasher
Ready, steady, go!
You have loaded your dishes and you now have
to set the wash cycle. It takes just one minute
to learn how
ISHWASHER
D
First of all.
After performing all the operations
described in the previous paragraphs, turn the water tap on completely, open the appliance door and
press ON-OFF button "A": indicator light "B" comes on. Your appliance is now on and awaiting instructions.
Selecting the wash
cycle.
Select the wash cycle by pressing
button "P". Each time this button
is pressed, one of the indicator
lights "M" will come on in sequence,
select the wash cycle you deem
most suitable for the type of dishes
to wash (take a look at page 17,
where you will find the wash cycle
table). Close the appliance door and
after a few seconds, you will hear
a short beep: the wash cycle has
begun.
Modifying a wash cycle in
progress.
But if you have chosen the wrong
cycle, not to worry! You can modify
the wash cycle in progress, if it has
only just started. Open the appliance door carefully to avoid any
hot water splashes, then keep button "P" pressed for approximately
5 seconds, until you hear a short
beep. Indicator light "M" will come
off and at this point, all the settings
will have been cancelled. You are
now free to re-set the correct wash
cycle.
You've left out a dish?
Well, it happens to everyone. Interrupt the wash cycle by opening the
appliance door with the utmost
care, as usual, then insert the dish
you had forgotten. When you shut
the appliance door, the cycle will
start up from where you interrupted
it.
Finished?
The end of the wash cycle is indicated by a double beep and the flashing of the wash cycle indicator light
"M". Open the dishwasher door,
press the ON-OFF button as well,
thus cutting off the electricity supply to the appliance.
Turn off the water tap.
Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishes: they are very hot! If
you wait a little while, they dry
better thanks to the steam.
Empty the lower rack first.
Make sure the
wash cycle has
ended before
removing the
dishes!
There's been a power failure? Have you opened the
dishwasher door?
The wash cycle stops and then restarts when the electricity comes
back on or when you shut the door.
Everything is under control!
You can cancel
the wash cycle
in progress, if it
has only just
started.
If opening the
door soon after
the end of the
programme,or
during it, stand
away from the
Dishwasher, to
avoid possible
injury from hot
steam.
