[. . . ] To deselect an option which has been set by mistake, press the corresponding button again. The Delayed Start function cannot be set once the wash has been started. If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if it has been rinsed with water before being placed in the dishwasher, reduce the amount of detergent used accordingly. The number and type of wash cycles and options may vary depending on the dishwasher model. Pre-wash for dishes while awaiting completion of the load with the dishes from the next meal. Environmentally-friendly wash cycle with low energy consumption levels, suitable for pans and dishes. (Run cycle immediately after use) (2 plates + 2 glasses + 4 pieces of cutlery + 1 saucepan + 1 small frying pan). Economic and fast wash for delicate items which are sensitive to high temperatures. (Run cycle immediately after use) (glasses on the upper rack + delicate plates, on the lower rack). Notes: Optimum performance levels when using the "Daily wash" and "Rapide wash" cycles can be achieved by observing the maximum amounts of crockery specified. To make it easier to measure out the detergent, it is worth remembering that: 1 tablespoon = 15 grams of powder = approximately 15 ml of liquid - 1 teaspoon = 5 grams of powder = approximately 5 ml of liquid Although it has a longer duration than other wash cycles it uses less energy and is les harmful to the environment. Only use products which have been specifically designed for dishwashers. If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add rinse aid; however, we recommend that you add salt, especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or very hard. Turn the SELECT WASH CYCLE knob (each wash cycle has a corresponding water hardness level) and position it on the pre-set level. : water hardness level 1 ("1" appears on the display); water hardness level 2 ("2" appears on the display); water hardness level 3 ("3" appears on the display), etc. To exit the function, wait a few seconds or press one of the option buttons*, or switch off the machine using the ON/OFF button. Even if using multi-functional tablets, the salt dispenser should still be filled. If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and LOW RINSE AID* indicator lights remain lit. Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water runs off surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave streaks or marks. The rinse aid dispenser should be filled: When the LOW RINSE AID* indicator light on the control panel is illuminated; 1. Pour in the rinse aid, making sure it does not overflow from the dispenser. For values between 0°f and 10°f, we do not recommend the use of salt. [. . . ] If the appliance breaks down, do not under any circumstances touch the internal parts in an attempt to perform the repair work yourself. Do not lean or sit on the open door of the appliance: this may cause the appliance to overturn. The door should not be left open as it may create a dangerous obstacle. We strongly recommend that you use detergents that do not contain phosphates or chlorine, as these products are harmful to the environment. [. . . ]
