This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt consumption so that it remains at a minimum. [. . . ] Each time it is pressed, one of the cycle indicator lights "F" will come on in succession. Choose the wash cycle you feel is most appropriate for the type of dishes that need washing (consult the wash cycle table contained in this manual, especially when first using the appliance).

After selecting the delay time, the wash cycle can be set, as explained in "Starting a wash cycle. . . " There will be a short acoustic signal, and at this point the delay period will begin to count down. At the end of the delay time, the indicator will stop blinking and the cycle will start. Cancelling or modifying a cycle while underway. . . Premise: A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it has only been running 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"). NOTE: a) During the delay period, none of the settings can be modified. If necessary, they can be cancelled by pressing cycle selector "P" for about 5 seconds. b) If the power to the appliance goes off or the door is opened during the delay period, the clock will stop the countdown. It will start again when the power has come back on, or when the door has been closed. To change the cycle currently underway, open the door and press the ON-OFF button "A", follow the instructions contained in the paragraph entitled, "Starting a wash cycle ", "Setting and Starting a Wash Cycle.

This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance. Remove the plug Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks. Moving the Appliance If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back. No solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little while vinegar, or cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers. Seals One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring. Cleaning and Special Maintenance Filter Assembly For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned frequently. The filter efficiently removes food residue from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the "A" semi-circular filter and cup under running water. [. . . ] If the appliance is level, it will help ensure proper performance. Cold Water Connection Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connector, making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig. 1). If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the appliance. fig. 2 Attention: The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill outside the drain. Hot Water Connection The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the house's hot water line (centralised system, heating system), as long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60 . In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15 minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced. [. . . ]
