ADVICE AND TIPS

TIPS
Before loading the baskets, remove all food residues from the crockery and
empty the glasses. You do not need to rinse beforehand under running
water.
Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not tip over;
and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards and the
concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing the water to reach
every surface and flow freely.
Warning: lids, handles, trays and frying pans should not prevent the spray-
er arms from rotating.
Place any small items in the cutlery basket.
Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower basket because
in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher washing per-
formance.
After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can rotate
freely.
UNSUITABLE CROCKERY
• Wooden crockery and cutlery.
• Delicately decorated glasses, artistic handicrafts and antique crockery.
Their decorations are not resistant.
• Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high temperatures.
• Copper and tin crockery.
• Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can change
and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass (e.g. crystal ob-
jects) can become opaque after a number of wash cycles too.
DAMAGE TO GLASS AND CROCKERY
• Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the manufacturer as dish-
washer safe.
• Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery
• Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as the wash cy-
cle is over.

MODIFYING A RUNNING PROGRAM
If a wrong program was selected, it is possible to change it, provided
that it has only just begun. RESET the machine: press and hold the
ON/OFF button for more than 3. sec., and the machine will switch off. The
dashboard will show "0:01". Close the door and wait until drain cycle ends
(around 1 minute). Open the door and switch the machine back on using the
ON/OFF button and select the new wash cycle and any desired options.
Start the cycle by pressing the START/Pause button and closing the door
within 4 sec.
ADDING EXTRA CROCKERY
Without switching off the machine, open the door first slightly to
avoid water splashing out (START/Pause led starts blinking) (Caution!
Hot steam!) and place the crockery inside the dishwasher. Press the
START/Pause button and close the door within 4 sec., the cycle will resume
from the point at which it was interrupted.
ACCIDENTAL INTERRUPTIONS
If the door is opened during the wash cycle, or if there is a power cut, the
cycle stops. ONLY IF YOU PRESS the START/Pause button and close the
door within 4 sec., the cycle will resume from the point at which it was
interrupted.
TIPS ON ENERGY SAVING
• When the household dishwasher is used according to the manufacturer's
instructions, washing tableware in a dishwasher usually consumes
less energy and water than hand dishwashing.
• In order to maximize dishwasher efficiency, it is recommended to in-
itiate the wash cycle once the dishwasher is fully loaded. Loading
the household dishwasher up to the capacity indicated by the manu-
facturer will contribute to energy and water savings. Information on
the correct loading of tableware can be found in the Loading chapter.
In case of partial loading, it is recommended to use a dedicated wash op-
tions if available (Half load/ Zone Wash/ Multizone), filling up only select-
ed racks. Incorrect loading or overloading of the dishwasher may increase
resources usage (such as water, energy and time, as well as increase noise
level), reducing cleaning and drying performance.
• Manual pre-rinsing of tableware items leads to increased water and ener-
gy consumption and is not recommended.
HYGIENE
To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the dishwasher
please run a high-temperature program at least once a month. Use a tea-
spoon of detergent and run it without loading to clean your appliance.
RESISTANCE TO FROST
If the appliance is placed in surroundings exposed to the risk of frost, it
must be drained completely. Turn off the water tap, remove the inlet and
outlet hoses, and let all the water drain away. Make sure that the water
softener is full of dissolved regeneration salt in the salt container, to
protect the appliance from temperatures of up to -20°C.
If the appliance was stored in frost conditions the appliance must remain at
an ambient temperature of min. 5°C for at least 24 hours before the first run.
