10. At the end of the washing
programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop and the phase
indicator light end of programme will come on.
The indicator light of the programme just ended will

The dishwasher has finished the programme only when
the phase indicator light end of programme is
illuminated.
If you do not wait for the end of the programme it will not
be possible to start a new programme if first you do not
cancel the previous. (For the formalities how to cancel a
programme see point 9).
If during the drying phase (drying indicator light
illuminated) the dishwasher door is opened or the On/Off
push button is pressed, the running programme is
automatically cancelled.
In this case the machine returns to setting mode and it is
possible to select a new washing programme without
cancelling the previous.
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push
button and open the door.
Wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in
this way they will be cooler.
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.
