[. . . ] Depress the On/Off push button, The On/Off indicator light illuminates and the machine will start. 5. Interrupting a washing programme in progress Interrupt a washing programme in progress ONLY if it's absolutely necessary. Hot steam may escape when the door is opened. a) Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop. Close the door; the programme will start from the point in which it was interrupted. b) Press the On/Off push button (in this case the On/Off indicator light turns off). Press the On/Off push button again; the programme will start from the point in which it was interrupted. 6. End of the washing programme The dishwasher will automatically stop. Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push button, the On/Off indicator light turns off. Open the door and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved. 7. 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 door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes. When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off. 11 Maintenance and cleaning Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc. . . . ). Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth. We recommend the use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner every 3 months or run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent. Regular use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner cleans inaccessible parts, eliminates unpleasant food odours and helps prevent the build-up of limescale. Attention! Under no circumstances may the dishwasher be used without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results. NEVER try to remove the upper spray arm. [. . . ] The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water. The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is draining as this could cause the water to siphon back into the machine. If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2 metres and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided. Electrical connection This appliance must be earthed. The manufacturer declines any responsibility should this safety measure not be observed. [. . . ]
