The selection of the programme occurs with the door
partially opened.
Press the "programme selector" push button until the
re uired programme number appears in the digital
display.
The following options may also be selected: half load
and/or a drying option. The corresponding indicator
light/s will come on
Close the door, the programme will start automatically
and an audible signal advises you of this.
The display will show the running time of the

7b. Setting and starting the programme
with "delay start"
Once a programme and re uired options have been
selected (see point 7a.) to use delay start proceed as
follows:
Press the delay start push button.
The digital display will show "h 0".
If other options have been selected the corresponding
indicator lights will turn off, but this will not modify the
settings made previously.
Press the button again to select the number of hours by
which you wish to delay the programme start (up to a
maximum of 12 hours).
To set the time setting to zero press the delay start
push button until "h 0" appears in the digital display.
Close the door, an audible signal will confirm the starting
of the countdown.
The digital display shows the delay time (flashing dot in
the display indicate that the countdown is going on),
which will decrease with steps of 1 hour.
Once the delayed time has elapsed the programme will

programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop and an
intermittent audible signal will sound when the

signal is automatically excluded).
All indicator lights turn off and 3 flashing horizontal lines
will appear in the digital display.
Open the door and switch off the dishwasher by
pressing the On/Off push button.
Wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this
way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.
Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this
will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the
dishes in the lower one.
Important!
In general it is not advisable to open the door while
the machine is working; if the door is opened
however, a safety device ensures that the machine
stops.
Care must be taken if the door is opened during the
hot phase or immediately after a programme has
finished, as steam may escape.
When the washing programme has finished, it is
recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and
the water tap turned off.
