CANCELLING THE CURRENT PROGRAM To cancel the program in progress the dishwasher must be switched off by pressing the ON/OFF key (2) (see section ?3. Turn the program selector to SOAK and wait for the dishwasher to start. On completion of the program, switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON/OFF key (2). Operating instructions Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as follows: ?Add the rinse aid and detergent. 4. 1 Using the rinse aid and detergent dispensers The detergent and rinse aid dispensers are situated on the inner part of the door: the detergent dispenser is on the left, and the rinse aid dispenser is on the right. With the exception of the SOAK program, before every washing cycle it is necessary to add the required amount of detergent to the detergent dispenser. The rinse aid, on the other hand, should only be added as required. ADDING THE RINSE AID The rinse aid helps the dishes dry faster and prevents the formation of scale deposits and staining; it is automatically added to the water during the final rinse cycle, from the container situated on the inner side of the door. Rotate the container cap anticlockwise by of a turn and remove it. Add the rinse aid until the container is full (approximately 140 cc). The optical level indicator on the side of the cap should be completely obscured. Refill the rinse aid when the optical level indicator becomes clear again, or when the rinse aid warning light illuminates.

However, please note that on return to the use of conventional salt, a number of cycles will be required before the system becomes fully efficient again, so traces of white coating may still be found on the tank and dishes. If the problem persists for too long, contact the After-Sales Service.

The dispenser is designed to use powder or liquid detergent and the door does not open completely during the washing cycle. This means that a tablet is not completely dissolved (released), which may lead to the following: - not enough detergent released during the cycle, with poor washing results; - the detergent forms a solid block in the distributor and is released during the final rinse cycle. ? ? The introduction of detergent into the rinse aid dispenser, even in liquid form, will damage the dishwasher.
