1 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing one of our products. To use this dishwasher cor-
rectly and safely, please read this manual carefully. The manual is divided
into sections giving you a step-by-step guide to all your appliance’s fun-
ctions. The texts are easy to understand and are complete with detailed
illustrations. This user-friendly manual will provide answers to all your
questions about use of the dishwasher.
Before using this dishwasher, carefully read chapter 2 “Use and safety war-
nings” of the attached general manual.
For any other information about use and maintenance of the dishwasher,
read the enclosed general manual carefully.
This manual comprises the following sections:
INTRODUCTION: general information about the manual.
USER INSTRUCTIONS: advice on using the washing programs and infor-
mation about all the dishwasher functions.
Nomenclature of gures and tables:
The progressive number of each gure is shown in the bottom right-hand
corner of the relative box. An example of a progressive number is “Fig.
4-01”, where the rst number (4) indicates the section to which the gure
belongs, while the second number (01) indicates the progressive number
of the gure in section 4 (Fig. 4-01 is the rst gure in section 4). The tables
are numbered in the same way, bearing in mind that “Tab.” is used instead
of “Fig.” (e.g.: Tab. 4-01 is the rst table in section 4). If a table occupies
more than one page, a letter is added after the progressive number (e.g.:
“Tab. 4-01a”, Tab. 4-01b”).

3 ENERGY SAVING AND ENVIRONMENTAL
RESPECT
• Always try to run the dishwasher fully loaded.
Do not wash the dishes under a running tap.•
Use the• most suitable washing program for each type of load.
Do not pre-rinse.•
If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water system with a temperature•
of up to 60°C (140°F).
When possible,• skip the drying cycle by opening the door after washing: the
air and the residue heat will dry the dishes to perfection.
3.1 Reducing the consumption of detergent and
respecting the environment
The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the environ-
ment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to save on electricity:
• Separate the more delicate items from those that are more resistant to aggres-
sive detergents and high temperatures;
Do not pour• the detergent directly onto the dishes.

4 REMOVING THE DISHES
At the end of the washing program, wait at least 20 minute before re-
moving the dishes in order to allow them to cool. To prevent any water
droplets on the upper rack from falling onto the dishes in the lower rack,
empty the lower rack rst and then the upper one.
