For this reason, some detergent tablets do not attein their full cleaning power during short washing programmes. Therefore please use long washing programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals. Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents These products are detergents with a combined cleaning, rinsing and salt function. Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hardness. NOTE: the refilling of the salt container and the rinse aid dispenser are no longer necessary. In this case the salt indicator light inside the salt container will always remain illuminated. To interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress Interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress ONLY if it's absolutely necessary. Hot steam may escape when the door is opened. Unloading the dishwasher Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from the appliance. 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. Water may appear on the sides and the door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes. Interrupt a washing programme in progress a) Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop. Close the door; the programme will start from the point at which it was interrupted. b) Press the On/Off button (in this case all the backlit lights turn off). Press the On/Off button again; the programme will start from the point at which it was interrupted. When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off. 13 Maintenance and cleaning Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth.
