power cut, the cycle stops. It starts again from the point at
which it was interrupted once the door has been shut or the
electricity supply is restored.
A successful wash also depends on the correct amount of
detergent being used, as recommended by the manufacturer.
Exceeding the recommended amount does not result in a
more effective wash and pollutes the environment.

If there are not many dishes to be washed, a half load cycle

Before selecting the wash cycle press the HALF LOAD button
repeatedly: the indicator light will illuminate and the wash cycle
will take place only in the upper or the lower rack.

the amount of detergent accordingly.

It is better to use powder detergent in this case.
