"3/1" OPTION BUTTON
(available in all programs except the soak program)

By pressing the button (8) you activate the "3/1" option, confirmed when
the relative light comes on. This option has been studied for the use of
dishwashing powder or tablets with integrated substances in place of
regenerating salt or rinse-aid known on the market as “3 in 1” or “triple
action” products; in this case the dishwasher will use the product in an
optimal way avoiding salt and rinse-aid consumption, which could
already be found in the dishwasher.

Note: When selecting the "3/1" button, it is normal that the salt and
rinse-aid lights remain on, if their containers are empty.

TO SAVE ON ENERGY! … AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT

x Always try to run the dishwasher fully loaded.
x Do not wash the dishes in running water.
x Use the washing program that is most appropriate for each type of

load.

x Do not carry out any preliminary rinsing.
x If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply up to

60°C.

22

TO CUT DOWN ON DETERGENT CONSUMPTION! … AND PROTECT
THE ENVIRONMENT

The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the
environment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to
save on electricity, observe the following:

x separate the more delicate items from dishes that are more

resistant to aggressive detergents and high temperatures;

x do not pour the detergent directly on the dishes.

User instructions

ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM

until the H- symbol, followed by the set value, appears on the

STARTING THE DISHWASHER

After carrying out all the operations described above correctly, to start
the dishwasher simply press the press the START/PAUSE button (4) for
a few seconds until a beep sounds (the PROGRAM STARTED (5) light
starts to flash). The 3-FIGURE DISPLAY (12) will show the duration of
the program in minutes. The duration time is only approximate, because
it depends on the washing conditions (quantity of dishes, water
temperature, etc.), and is also continually updated as the washing
program progresses.

The 3-FIGURE DISPLAY (12) shows the estimated duration of the
washing program.

If it is necessary to open dishwasher door during the washing cycle,
there will be a 1-minute delay before the program can be resumed.
After correctly closing the door, press the START/PAUSE (4) button
again. This operation may negatively affective the progress of the
washing cycle.

The end of the program is indicated by a short signal acoustic and from
the “End” visual notification on 3-FIGURE DISPLAY (12). By pressing
the PROGRAM SELECTION button (2), the “End” visual signal will
vanish from the display and the dishwasher is ready to continue a new
cycle, the same thing happens when closing or opening the door or by
switching on-off the machine.

REMOVING THE DISHES

At the end of the washing program, wait at least 20 minutes before
removing the dishes, to allow them to cool down. To prevent any water
droplets on the upper basket from falling on the dishes in the lower
basket, it is advisable to unload the lower basket first, and then the
upper basket.
