DYNAMIC SENSE: Energy savings and optimum wash results

The two sensor-controlled “DYNAMIC SENSE” wash options are recommended for routine washes. They use double-sensor

technology. Separate sensors gauge turbidity and particles in

order to determine the degree of soiling of the wash water. In accordance with values measured, a microprocessor establishes optimum water, energy and time consumption. Optimum wash results are thus achieved using only those resources strictly

required.

Further indications are given in the pages to follow and in the user instructions.

How to use the dishwasher

Upper and lower rack

1.After loading the dishwasher, close the door properly and open the water supply tap.

2.Press the On/Off button to switch the dishwasher on. One of the programme indicator lamps will switch on.

3.Select the desired programme by pressing the corresponding button.

The corresponding indicator lamp lights up. If required, select options (if supplied).

4.Press the Start button to start the selected programme. The Start indicator lamp will light up. Once set, the programmed data cannot be altered by pressing the programme selector buttons.

Note: Once the Start button has been pressed, the dishwasher memorises the last programme selected. This information remains in the memory even during interruption of the power supply.

To change the selected

programme, press the Start button for about 5 seconds, until the

Start indicator lamp switches off. Select a new programme using the programme selector knob and press the Start button.

Note: If the dishwasher is switched off during a wash programme, when switched on again it will resume the wash cycle from where it was interrupted.

Only open the dishwasher door if strictly necessary during a wash

cycle and exercise maximum caution. Danger of scalding from steam.

5.To indicate the end of the programme, the Start indicator lamp switches off and the End indicator lamp (if fitted) lights up (for about 30 min.).
