1. Check the filters 

Ensure they are clean and properly positioned 
(see "Maintenance and cleaning"). 

2. Check that there is rinse aid and 

salt 

3. Load the dishes 

Remove any scraps of food. 

Pull the lower basket out and arrange the saucepans, 
plates and cutlery in it. 

Pull the upper basket out and arrange the plates, 
saucers, glasses and cups etc. in it. 

Slide the baskets back into the machine. 

4. Ensure that the spray arms can 

rotate freely. 

5. Measure out detergent 

Add the required amount of detergent into the 
dispenser according to the indications in the "Washing 
programmes" chart. 

Close the detergent dispenser lid.

6. Close the dishwasher door

7. Set the programme

Turn the programme selector dial clockwise until the 
number of the programme you wish to select 
corresponds with the programme marker.

8. Start the programme 

Depress the On/Off push button.

The "Mains On" indicator light will come on and the 
machine will start.

If you wish to interrupt the washing programme at any 
time press this button again.

9. At the end of the washing 

programme 

At the end of the programme the dishwasher will 
automatically stop.

The "Mains On" indicator light remains on until the 
On/Off push button is depressed.

10. Switch off the dishwasher

Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off 
push button.

Wait 15/20 minutes before opening the 
dishwasher’s door; in this way you will avoid 
burning yourself removing the dishes and 
avoid also the damage of the nearby furniture 
caused by the escape of steam.

Open the door.

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.

When the washing programme has 
finished, it is recommended that the 
dishwasher is unplugged and the water 
tap turned off.

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.

Important!
Care must be taken if the door is opened 
during the hot phase or immediately 
after a programme has finished, as 
steam may escape.
