TO CUT DOWN ON DETERGENT CONSUMPTION! … AND PROTECT
THE ENVIRONMENT
The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the
environment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to save
on electricity, observe the following:
separate
the more delicate items from dishes that are more resistant
to aggressive detergents and high temperatures;
do not pour
the detergent directly on the dishes.
If the door has to be opened while washing is in progress, the program
will be interrupted. The relative light will keep flashing and a beeper will
signal that the cycle has not been completed. You must wait about
1
minute
before closing the door to restart the program. When the door is
closed the program will continue from where it was interrupted. This
operation should
only be carried out if strictly necessary
, because it
might cause problems in execution of the program.

upper basket.
