Turning on the Appliance

Starting a wash cycle

After having completed all of the installation steps in the preced-

ing paragraphs, turn on the water all the way and press the ON-

OFF button (D) located on the control panel. The "A" indicator

light will come on. At this point, the appliance is on but you must

wait a few seconds before programming the cycle setting.

Cancelling or modifying a cycle

A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it has only been

running for a short time. Otherwise, the detergent may have al-

ready 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").

To modify a cycle that is already underway, press the ON/OFF

button (D), all of the settings will be cancelled. To set a new

cycle, follow the instructions contained in the paragraph entitled

"Setting and starting a wash cycle".

Setting the Wash Cycle with a Delayed Start Time

1/2 load Button

This button (see "close-up View - Control Panel", letter"E

E") makes

it possible to wash dishes using only the upper rack if there are

not enough dishes for a full load. This will allow you to save on

water and power. It can be used before setting any of the wash

cycle, except for the intensive cycle ( if included in the wash cycle

table). Please keep in mind that the amount of detergent should

also be cut in half.

During the delay period, it is preferable not to change any of the

settings, If this is necessary, all of the settings must be cancelled

by pressing the ON/OFF button (D).

At this point, all of the steps for "setting the wash cycle with a

Delayed Start Time" and "Setting and Starting a wash cycle" must

be repeated, following the instructions contained in the correspond-

ing sections.

If the door is opened to the unit during the delay period, the count-

down will stop. It will begin again when the door is closed.

All of the wash cycle set to reverse time function, we may in

focus start circulate time.

At the end of the wash cycle

Six beeps will indicate that the wash cycle has finished and the

cycle indicator light (J) for the cycle will begin to die out. Turn off

the appliance using the ON-OFF button. Turn off the water sup-

ply to the appliance and open the door. Wait a few minutes be-

fore unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and

utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage.

They will also dry better.

Setting and Starting a wash Cycle

Select the desired cycle by pressing the selector button (I). Each

time the button is pressed, one of the "J" cycle indicator lights 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. After a few seconds,

the wash cycle has begun and can no longer be changed.

Wash Cycle Program Light

The dishwasher is equipped with a LED indicator light (J) that

turns on when the appliance is running the wash cycle.

By pressing the "F" button (see close-up view-'Control panel")

the start of wash cycle can be delayed for between 1 to 12 hours.

Each time the button is pressed, the display (G) will show the

number of hours for the delay period. Choose the amount of

time desired. After selecting the wash cycle, a short acoustic sig-

nal will sound and after a few seconds, the delay time on the dis-

play will blink, This indicates that the countdown has begun.

After the time has lapsed, the cycle will start.

Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove larger food

particles to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which results

in reduced performance.

If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to

remove, we recommend that they are soaked before washed. This

will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.

Pull out the rack to load the dishwasher.

How to use the lower rack

We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on

the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as

shown in the figure to the right.

It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the

racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.

- Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down.

- Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.

- The lower rack features fold down tine rows (see fig.A) so that

larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.

- The silverware basket can not be doubled (see fig.B).

- Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the

handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons

should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Espe-

cially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at

the front of the upper rack.

How to use the upper rack

The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter

dishware, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small bowls

and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).

- Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved

by the spray of water.

Adjust the upper basket to the higher level and you have more

space to accommodate those taller pans and trays in the bottom

basket.

Shelf

Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelf-not

against other items to be washed.

Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack.

The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required(see

fig.C).
