After approximately 1 minute the dishwasher will advance to the end of cycle. CHANGING THE PROGRAM To change the program in progress, simply open the door and select a new program. When the door is closed the dishwasher will automatically select the new program. TO SAVE ON ENERGY!… AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT • Always use the dishwasher with a full load. • Use the washing program that is most appropriate for each type of load. Then use a screwdriver to rotate the rinse aid selector to the desired position. The amount of rinse aid must be increased if the washed dishes appear dull or feature circular stains. If, on the other hand, the dishes are sticky or have white streaks, it is necessary to reduce the rinse aid setting. 19 User instructions ADDING THE DETERGENT To open the detergent dispenser cap, lightly press the button P. During the washing cycle, the dispenser will be opened automatically. • • • • • • When a program with hot prewash is selected (see program table), extra detergent must be placed in the cavity G/H (depending on models). For optimal washing results it is important to use a good quality detergent. The detergent packs must be sealed and stored in a dry place to prevent the formation of lumps which may negatively affect washing results. Once opened the detergent packs should not be kept for too long, otherwise the detergent loses its effectiveness. Do not use detergents formulated for washing dishes by hand, because they produce a great deal of foam and may negatively affect the operation of the dishwasher. An insufficient amount of detergent will result in a partial removal of dirt from the dishes, whereas an excessive amount is wasteful and does not improve the washing results. The market offers liquid and powder detergents with differing chemical compositions, which may contain phosphates, or be phosphate-free but contain natural enzymes. - Detergents containing phosphates are more effective against grease and starch at temperatures above 60° . [. . . ] • It is essential to thoroughly clean the filters according to the above instructions: the dishwasher cannot function if the filters are clogged. • Carefully replace the filters in their seats, to avoid damaging the wash pump. • Leave the door slightly open, in order to prevent the formation of unpleasant odours inside the washing tank. • Shut off the water supply tap. 30 User instructions BEFORE STARTING THE DISHWASHER AFTER PROLONGED DISUSE: • • • Check that there are no deposits of sludge or rust inside the water pipe: if there are, allow the water to run from the water supply tap for a few minutes.
