3.2 Washing programs
The dishwasher is equipped with a control panel, described in chapter
"3. Description of the controls", from which it is possible to carry out all
the power switch-on, switch-off and programming operations.
Before starting a washing program make sure that:
•
The water supply tap is open.
•
The correct amount of detergent has been added to the
dispenser.
•
The baskets have been correctly loaded.
•
The spray arms are able to rotate freely and without
obstruction.
•
The dishwasher door is securely closed.
TO SAVE ON ENERGY! … AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT
•
Always try to run the dishwasher fully loaded.
•
Do not wash the dishes in running water.
•
Use the washing program that is most appropriate for each type of
load.
•
Do not carry out any preliminary rinsing.
•
If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply up to 60°C.
•
When possible, skip the drying cycle by leaving the door open when
the washing cycle is complete; the air and the residual heat will dry
the dishes perfectly.
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.
REMOVING THE DISHES
At the end of the washing program, wait at least
20 minutes
before
removing the dishes, to allow them to cool down. To prevent any water
droplets on the upper basket from falling on the dishes in the lower
basket, it is
advisable
to unload the lower basket first, and then the
upper basket.
