1.2 Washing programs

Before starting a washing program make sure that:

• The water supply tap is open.

• The softener container contains regenerating salt.

• The correct amount of detergent has been added to the

dispenser.

• The baskets have been correctly loaded.

• The spray arms are able to rotate freely and without

obstruction.

• The dishwasher door is securely closed.

Options are selected by pressing the relative button by the symbol of the option required; the light comes on to confirm that the option has been activated.

• It is not possible to select any options when the soak program is being used.

• All options except "Flexi Tabs" are disabled at the end of the wash cycle. To disable the “Flexi Tabs” option, press the relative button (the light goes out).

• All options, including "Flexi Tabs" are disabled when a program is CANCELLED after it has begun.

SPREAD HALF LOAD

User instructions

This option can be selected with the wash programme of choice to further reduce energy consumption. Drying is aided by a special device that automatically releases the door, which opens slowly and smoothly by a few centimetres. This ensures perfect drying and greater control of rinsing temperatures, which can be kept at lower levels for significant energy saving. Once the door has opened, the end of the wash cycle is indicated by a short beep. Enersave is activated

a wash cycle is selected (except for programs that do not include the final drying phase; see programs table) and can be disabled before the program is started. Flexi Tabs, once selected, remains enabled until intentionally disabled.

When the function is activated, opening of the door must not be impeded in any way; do not leave anything in the space in front of the door necessary to allow it to open. Do not re-close the door during automatic opening as this would damage the mechanism. Wait for the pushers to retract before re-closing the door.

The "ULTRA CLEAN" program prolongs the final hot rinse to ensure a further reduction in the bacteria level. If the temperature in the tank falls during this stage of the program (e.g. because the door is opened or due to a power blackout), the light of the option and the program lights (2) flash to warn that the additional washing phase has not been completed successfully. This does not mean that the wash program has been less effective than usual.

Suitable when there are not many dishes to be washed, it saves energy and reduces the program duration. Place dishes in both baskets then load the detergent dispenser than less than the normal amount for a full load.
