Safety information

Before installing and first using the dishwasher, read this instruction booklet carefully, including its hints and warnings. To avoid unnecessary mistakes and accidents, it is important to ensure that all people using the dishwasher are thoroughly familiar with its operation and safety features.

Save these instructions and make sure they remain with the dishwasher if it is moved or sold, so that everyone using it through its life can be properly informed on appliance use and safety.

Installation and servicing

●All installation and service work done on the product must be carried out by a qualified technician. Work performed by persons with inadequate knowledge may adversely affect the satisfactory functioning of the product and may cause personal injury or damage. Before any work is carried out on the dishwasher, it must be isolated from the electrical supply, by unplugging the power cord or removing the fuse.

●Water connection shall be made via an easily accessible stopcock.

●The power cord must be plugged into an earthed socket, which need to be easily accessible. Permanent installation must only be carried out by an authorised electrician.

●If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a special cord or assembly available from the manufacturer or its service agent.

●Make sure that the power cord is not nipped or otherwise damaged and that the hoses do not get crushed or kinked when moving the dishwasher in connection with installation or cleaning etc.

●Servicing and possible repairs must be carried out by a service company authorised by the manufacturer. Use only spare parts supplied by these. Never try to repair the dishwasher yourself.

Child Safety

●The dishwasher should be used by adults only. Do not let children play with the controls or other parts of it.

●Remember that the plastic bags included in the packaging can be fatal playthings for small children.

●Keep all detergents in safe place out of children´s reach.

●Prevent children from sitting, swinging or standing on the open door.

During Use

●This dishwasher is designed solely for washing household utensils suitable for machine washing. Using it for other purposes could lead to physical injury or damage to property and invalidate the guarantee.

●Avoid opening the door while the dishwasher is running, as hot steam may escape.

●Only use detergent specifically designed for use in dishwashers.

●Do not place sharp knives with their points upwards. It is much safer to lay them horizontally in the basket.

●Ensure that the door of the dishwasher is always closed when it is not being loaded or unloaded. In this way you will avoid anybody injuring themselves on the open door, if the dishwasher is placed under the worktop.

●If you take any dishes out of the machine before the end of the dishwashing cycle, it is extremely important to rinse them thoroughly under running water to remove any remaining detergent.

●In the event of flooding or leakage, shut off the water supply immediately by closing the stopcock and disconnect the power supply by unplugging the power cord or removing the fuse. When removing the electrical plug, grip the plug, not the lead.

●There is always a certain risk of leakages in any machine connected to a water supply, no matter what water safety features it may have. Therefore it is advisable always to turn off the water supply tap when the machine is not in use.

Description of the appliance

Rinse conditioner dispenser 1

Use of a rinse conditioner will result in cleaner and faster drying of the load, since it helps water to run off. Too much conditioner may result in streakiness, too little may cause white spots. The dispenser holds about 140 ml. This is enough for 40-70 wash cycles, depending on the dosage setting. When the rinse conditioner level is approaching the bottom of the scale it is time to refill the dispenser.

Adjust the dosage setting according to the hardness in the water. Begin with the lowest dosage setting and increase if necessary by turning the arrow clockwise.

Coarse filter 3

The purpose of the coarse filter is to catch large objects such as toothpicks and pieces of eggshell. Make sure that the filter is always clean. Lift it out and rinse it under running water whenever necessary.

Fine filter 4

It is just as important to keep this filter clean. A dirty or clogged filter will always impair washing efficiency. The fine filter can easily be lifted out for cleaning when you have removed the coarse filter.

1. Swivel out the filler trough.

2.Fill up with rinse conditioner until the level reaches up to the red mark on the level indicator tube; do not overfill.

3.Wipe off any spillage carefully to prevent excessive foaming during the next wash programme.

4.Close the filler trough afterwards.

Do not fill the rinse aid dispenser with liquid detergent.

Spray arm 2

It is important to keep all the holes in the spray arm clear. A clogged hole can seriously affect washing efficiency. If the spray arm needs cleaning, unscrew the nut clockwise, remove the washer and lift off the spray arm. Clear the holes and shake out any food remnants.

Detergent dispenser 5

Consult the instructions on the detergent packet and fill the compartment. Remember that the instructions usually refer to full-size dishwashers, for example when using detergent tablets, it is sufficient to use just half a tablet.

Only use detergents specially designed for dishwashers.
