[. . . ] €¢ To a suitable hot water connection point: your dishwasher may be provided with hot water from the mains supply (if you have a central heating system with radiators) provided that it does not exceed a temperature of 60°C. Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection to a cold water supply.  If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised technician (see Assistance ).  The water pressure must be within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see below). [. . . ]  When buying crockery and cutlery we recommend that you check whether it can be washed using the dishwasher. Washing the handles* To wash the upper and lower rack handles: remove the two fastening plugs, lift out the handles and rinse them under running water, then fasten them to the rack using the same plugs. Select the desired wash cycle depending on the dishes and how dirty they are (see table of wash cycles), by turning the knob clockwise. After a few minutes the cycle start and the WASH CYCLE PHASE indicator lights display the status of the cycle: Pre-wash, Wash, Rinse, Drying. At the end of the cycle two short beeps will sound and the DRYING indicator light will flash. Turn the knob anti-clokwise to RESET in order to reset all the settings. Switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button, shut off the water tap and unplug the appliance from the electricity socket. Open the door and wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery, in order to avoid burns. Modifying the duration of a wash cycle already in progress If a mistake was made during the wash cycle selection process it is possible to change the cycle, provided that it has only just begun: turn the knob anti-clockwise until it reaches the RESET position. After a few seconds one long beep and three short beeps, the WASH CYCLE PHASE indicator light will switch off: select the new cycle. Adding extra crockery Press the ON/OFF button and open the door, taking care to avoid the escaping steam, and place the crockery inside the dishwasher. Part of the dishwasher (see Description) and should be filled: • when the green float* cannot be seen by simply looking at the cap of the salt dispenser; • when the LOW SALT* indicator light on the panel flashes; • if your machine is not equipped with an indicator light or a green float: approximately every 30 wash cycles; 1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the cap of the dispenser (in an anticlockwise direction). For the first wash cycle only: fill the dispenser up to the edges with water. Position the funnel provided correctly (see figure) and fill the salt dispenser up to the edges (approximately 2 kg); it is normal for a little water to leak out. Remove the funnel, wipe away any salt residue from the thread and screw the cap on tightly, so that detergent does not leak into the dispenser during the wash cycle (this could damage the water softening system beyond repair).  When salt has been added, run a wash cycle immediately, without crockery, in order to remove any salt solution that has leaked out and to avoid corrosion. ) fill the salt dispenser and set the adjuster to -; if the hardness of the water is greater than 60°fH, set it to +. Care and maintenance Shutting off the water and electricity supplies • Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to avoid leaks. €¢ Remove the plug from the socket when cleaning the machine and when carrying out maintenance work. Cleaning the filters The filters remove food residue from the water used in the wash cycle: to obtain the best results from each wash, they should be cleaned.  The dishwasher should not be used without filters, or when the filter is loose. [. . . ] €¢ Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of crockery and to the soil level of the crockery using the Wash cycle table: - 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* button (see Start-up and use) helps you organise the wash cycles accordingly. [. . . ]
