[. . . ] Press the START/RESET button: after the beep sounds, the timer begins counting down. Once this time has elapsed, the indicator light switches off and the wash cycle begins. To modify the delay and select a shorter period of time, press the MODE and SELECT buttons to repeat the selection process. To cancel it, press the SELECT button repeatedly until OFF appears on the display, the DELAYED START symbol switches off, the wash cycle begins and the WASH CYCLE PHASE indicator light corresponding to the start of the cycle in progress illuminates. Half load using the upper or lower rack If there are not many dishes to be washed, a half load cycle may be used in order to save water, electricity and detergent.

If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and LOW RINSE AID* indicator lights will flash continuously. €¢ when the green float* cannot be seen by simply looking at the cap of the salt dispenser; • when the LOW SALT* indicator light on the panel flashes; • if your machine is not equipped with an indicator light or a green float: approximately every 30 wash cycles; 1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the cap of the dispenser (in an anticlockwise direction). For the first wash cycle only: fill the dispenser up to the edges with water. Position the funnel provided correctly (see figure) and fill the salt dispenser up to the edges (approximately 2 kg); it is normal for a little water to leak out. Remove the funnel, wipe away any salt residue from the thread and screw the cap on tightly, so that detergent does not leak into the dispenser during the wash cycle (this could damage the water softening system beyond repair). When salt has been added, run a wash cycle immediately, without crockery, in order to remove any salt solution that has leaked out and to avoid corrosion. Adjusting the amount of salt* It is possible to adjust the amount of salt used according to the hardness of the water in your area (this information is available from your local water board). Turn the arrow on the neck of the dispenser (see figure) towards the + or - symbols, using the table below as a guide. Loading the rinse aid Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water runs off surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave streaks or marks. The rinse aid dispenser should be filled: • whenever the indicator light (H) signals that it is empty. Illuminated light: add rinse aid; unlit light: there is no shortage of rinse aid in the dispenser. €¢ when the LOW RINSE AID* indicator light on the panel flashes; 1.

Disposal of old electrical appliances The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. [. . . ]
