The appliance was designed and manufactured in

compliance with current international safety standards. The

following information has been provided for safety reasons and

should therefore be read carefully.

General safety

• The appliance should not be operated by people (including

children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities,

or by inexperienced people who are not familiar with the

product, unless supervision is provided by someone who

assumes responsibility for their safety.

• An adult must supervise children at all times, to prevent

children from playing with the appliance.

• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the

home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.

• The appliance must be used by adults only, to wash domestic

crockery in accordance with the instructions in this manual.

• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in

covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the machine

exposed to rain and storms.

• Do not touch the appliance when barefoot.

• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from

the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.

• The water supply tap must be shut off and the plug should

be removed from the electrical socket before cleaning the

appliance or carrying out any maintenance work.

• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any circumstances

touch the internal parts in an attempt to perform the repair

work yourself.

• Never touch the heating element.

• 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.

• Keep detergent and rinse aid out of reach of children.

• The packaging material should not be used as a toy: it can

become a choking or suffocation hazard.

Disposal

• Disposal of packaging materials: observe local legislation so

that the packaging may be reused.

• The European Directive 2012/19/EC relating to Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that

household appliances should not be disposed of using

the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances

should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost

of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine,

while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and

to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all

products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding

separated waste collection.

For further information relating to the correct disposal of

household appliances, owners may contact the relevant

public authority or the local appliance dealer.

Saving energy and respecting the

environment

Saving water and energy

• Only begin a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full. While

waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent unpleasant

odours with the Soak cycle

(see Wash Cycles).

• Select a wash cycle which is suited to the type of crockery

and to the soil level of the crockery using the

Table of wash

cycles:

- For dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco wash cycle,

which guarantees low energy and water consumption levels.

- If the load is smaller than usual activate the Half load* option

(see Start-up and use).

• If your electricity supply contract gives details of electricity

saving time bands, run wash cycles during the periods when a

lower tariff is applied. The Delayed start* option

(see Start-up

and use)

helps you organise the wash cycles accordingly.

Detergents free from phosphates and chlorine

and containing enzymes

• We strongly recommend that you use detergents that do not

contain phosphates or chlorine, as these products are harmful

to the environment.

• Enzymes provide a particularly effective action at temperatures

around 50°C, and as a result detergents containing enzymes

can be used in conjunction with low-temperature wash cycles

in order to achieve the same results as a normal 65°C wash

cycle.

• To avoid wasting detergent, use the product in appropriate

quantities based on the manufacturer’s recommendations,

the hardness of the water and the soil level and quantity

of crockery to be washed. Even if they are biodegradable,

detergents contain substances which may alter the balance

of nature.

Assistance

Before contacting Assistance:

• Check whether the problem can be resolved using the

Troubleshooting guide

(see Troubleshooting)

• Restart the wash cycle to check whether the problem has

ceased to exist.

• If the problem persists, contact the Authorised Technical

Assistance Service.

Never use the services of unauthorised technicians.

Please have the following information to hand:

• The type of malfunction.

• The appliance model (Mod.).

• The serial number (S/N).

This information can be found on the appliance data plate

(see

Description of the appliance).
