Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection to a cold water supply. If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised technician (see Assistance ). [. . . ] Once this time is up, the indicator light switches off and the wash cycle begins. To adjust the delay time and select a lower period of time, press the DELAYED START button.

Modifying a wash cycle in progress If a mistake was made during the wash cycle selection process it is possible to change the cycle, provided that it has only just begun: press and hold the START/RESET button for 4 seconds.

Remember to load the upper rack only, and to reduce the amount of detergent accordingly. Use a screwdriver to turn the dosage adjuster to one of the 6 pre-set positions (the default position is set to 4): • if there are streaks on the crockery, set the adjuster to a lower number (1-3). €¢ if drops of water remain on the crockery or there are limescale marks present after the cycle has finished, set the adjuster to a higher number (4-6).
