1.3 Washing programs
The dishwasher is equipped with a control panel and an
INFORMATION
DISPLAY from which it is possible to carry out all the power switch-on,
switch-off and programming operations.
Before starting a washing program make sure that:
The water supply tap is open.
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.
Warning:
during the initial phase of the washing program, the operation of sprayers
is not perceived because they start rotating about 5 minutes after the start.
This is the normal operation of the washing cycle.
LIGHTING
Pressing the ON/OFF button will start the dishwasher and will lit up the
dishwasher pilot light. After approximately 3 second from this operation
the DISPLAY will be turned on with a visualization that will depend upon
the state of the dishwasher.
PROGRAMMING
All the programming operations are possible only with closed door. With
open door, on the DISPLAY will appear - - : - -.
SELECTION PROGRAM
The program selection is possible
through the relative buttons.

User instructions
8
By pressing the relative button of the desired program (see table) it will
light up the relative pilot light to confirm that the operation occurred and
on the DISPLAY a program duration forecast will appear (“h.mm”).
START PROGRAM
At this point, in order to start the machine, it is only enough to press the
START/PAUSE for some seconds until the symbol START/PAUSE
start toflash andconfirmation“beep” isheard. From thismoment the cycle
duration on the DISPLAY starts to decrease.
This phase, that updates itself during the cycle, is “indicative” since it is
influenced by the washing conditions such as dishwasher type and
quantity, entry temperature etc. For this reason it is normal to see the
updating during a program (increment and decrease of minutes) specially
in the passage from one phase to the other (for example, from washing to
rinse).
Program progress isindicated by theprogram phases that show the status
of the current cycle.
The current phase flashes, while the next washing phases lights stay on.
At the end of each phase, the signal will turn off.
N.B.: when a program which does not need the prewash phase is
selected, the prewash signal stays off.
Prewash Wash
Rinse Drying
END PROGRAM
At the end of the program the DISPLAY shows “Time to end”. By
pressing one of the program buttons, “Time to end” turns off and the
washing machine is ready to start a new cycle.
