Loading the Dishwasher

Load for 12 Standard Settings ( for DW12-EBM3S/1S )
Turning on the Appliance
Starting a wash cycle
- Make sure that the plug for the appliance is inserted into the wall
socket.
- Make sure that the water supply is turned on to full pressure.
- Load the dishwasher (see the section entitled, "Loading the
Dishwasher").
- Pour in the detergent (see the section entitled, "Salt, Detergent
and Rinse Aid").
- Turn the knob located on the right of the control panel in
clockwise direction until the number or symbol for the cycle set-
ting is aligned with the reference mark (see the section entitled,
"Wash Cycle Table").
- Press the ON-OFF button, and the ON-OFF light will turn on. At
this point, the wash cycle will begin.
If you forget to load some of the dishes
The wash cycle can be interrupted by pressing the ON-OFF button.
You can then load additional dishes and turn the appliance back
on. The cycle will start where it left off.
Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid
handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more
susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.
Cancelling or modifying a wash cycle setting
A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it has been run-
ning for a short time. Otherwise, the detergent may have already
been used, and the appliance may have already drained the wash
water. If this is the case, the detergent dispenser must be refilled
(see the paragraph entitled, "Loading the Detergent").
Press the ON-OFF button, and the ON-OFF light will turn off.
Rotate the knob in clockwise direction to the desired cycle set-
ting (see the section entitled: Starting a wash cycle
. Then,
turn the dishwasher back on using the ON-OFF button.
Wash Cycle Adjustment Buttons
"ECO" Button
This button (see "Close-up View - Control Panel", letter "G" ) is
used for normal dirty dishes, pots and pans. It is a standard daily
cycle.
Half load Button
This button (see "Close-up View - Control Panel", letter "H" ) makes
it possible to wash dishes using only the upper rack if there are
not enough dishes for a full load. This will allow you to save on
water and electricity.
It can be used before setting any of the wash cycles. Please
keep in mind that the amount of detergent should also be cut in
half.
Rapid Button
This button (see "Close-up View - Control Panel", letter "I" ) ,
when pressed with glassware wash cycle make it possible to run
the wash cycle at a lower temperature and eliminates the drying
phase.
At the end of the wash cycle
When the knob stops turning and is aligned with a STOP mark
(see figure), the cycle has finished. Turn off the appliance using
the ON-OFF button, turn off the water supply and open the door
of the dishwasher.
STOP
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove larger food
particles to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which results
in reduced performance.
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to
remove, we recommend that they are soaked before washed. This
will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.
Pull out the rack to load the dishwasher.
How to use the lower rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on
the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as
shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the
racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
- Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down.
- Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.
- The lower rack features fold down tine rows (see fig.A) so that
larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.(for DW12-EBM4S)
- Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the
handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons
should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Espe-
cially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at
the front of the upper rack.(figB1,figB2)
- The silverware basket can be doubled (see fig.B1) so that only
one section may be used when the silverware load is light. This
also makes space for additional pots and pans and it can also be
placed in the upper rack.(for DW12-EBM4S)
How to use the upper rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter
dishware, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small bowls
and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
- Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved
by the spray of water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs lo-
cated on both sides of the rack itself (see fig.C).
Adjust the upper basket to the higher level and you have more
space to accommodate those taller pans and trays in the bottom
basket.
Shelf
Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelf-not
against other items to be washed.
Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack.
The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required(see
fig.D).
Knife rack (for DW12-EBM4S)
The knife rack clips onto the side of the top basket, giving you the
freedom to wash your large sharp knives separately and out of
harm’s way (see fig.E).
