This programme is used to assess compliance with the UK Ecodesign for Energy-Related Products and Energy Information Regulations. Automatic door opening during the drying phase. The appliance senses the degree of soil and the quantity of items in the baskets. This programme is designed to clean the inside of the appliance effectively and efficiently. With this programme, you can quickly rinse off food remains from dishes and prevent odours forming in the appliance. The pressure and the temperature of the water, the variations of the mains supply, the options, the quantity of dishes and the degree of soil can change the values. The values for programmes other than ECO are indicative only. To receive the necessary information for conducting performance tests, send an email including the product number code from the rating plate. For any other questions regarding your dishwasher, refer to the service book provided with your appliance.
• Page 9: Options improve dishwashing temperature and reduce it to 45 °C. Desired options must be activated before starting a programme. It is not possible to activate or deactivate options while a programme is running. ExtraPower improves dishwashing results by increasing wash temperature and duration. Not all options are compatible with each other; incompatible options will be automatically deactivated. ExtraHygiene provides better cleaning results by maintaining a temperature of 65 to 70 °C for at least 10 minutes. Activating options can affect water and energy consumption as well as programme duration. The appliance stores saved settings, eliminating the need for configuration before every cycle. In programme selection mode, it is possible to set a programme and enter user mode. Settings available in user mode include water softener level, rinse aid notification, and AirDry activation.
• Page 10: After activation, the appliance is in programme selection mode by default. The water softener removes minerals from the water supply, which would have a negative effect on the washing results and on the appliance. The higher the content of these minerals, the harder your water is. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales. The water softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Set the right level of the water softener to assure good washing results. To enter user mode, press and hold simultaneously Delay and Option until the indicators flash and the display is blank. Regardless of the type of detergent used, set the proper water hardness level to keep the salt refill indicator active. The resin of the softener device needs to be regenerated regularly. Multi-tabs containing salt are not effective enough to soften hard water.
• Page 11: All the consumption values mentioned in this section are determined in line with the currently applicable standard in laboratory conditions with water hardness 2.5mmol/L. The pressure and the temperature of water as well as the variations of the mains supply can change the values. Make sure the appliance is in user mode to set the water softener level. Regeneration initiation has no impact on the cycle duration unless it occurs in the middle of a programme. The rinse aid helps to dry the dishes without streaks and stains. When the rinse aid chamber is empty, the rinse aid indicator turns on. For best drying performance, always use rinse aid. Each performed softener rinse may prolong the programme duration by another 5 minutes. If standard detergent or multi-tablets without rinse aid are used, activate the notification to keep the rinse aid refill indicator active. Make sure the appliance is in user mode to deactivate the rinse aid empty notification.
• Page 12: When AirDry opens the door, the display shows the remaining time of the running programme. Do not try to close the appliance door within 2 minutes after automatic opening. This can cause damage to the appliance. If the door is closed for at least 3 minutes, the running programme ends. AirDry improves the drying results with less energy consumption. The appliance door opens automatically during the drying phase and remains ajar. If children have access to the appliance, we advise to deactivate AirDry. Make sure the appliance is in user mode to deactivate AirDry. The duration of the drying phase and the door opening time vary depending on the selected programme and options. Make sure that the current level of the water softener agrees with the hardness of the water supply. Start a programme to remove any processing residuals that can still be inside the appliance.
