First use
First use
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
• Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instruc­tions
• Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
• Set the water softener
• Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with dishwasher salt
• Fill the rinse aid dispenser
If you want to use combi detergent tablets such as: "3 in 1", "4 in 1", "5 in 1" etc... set the Multi-tab function (see "Multi-tab function").
Set the water softener
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German degrees (°dH), French degrees (°TH) and mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit for the hardness of water). The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area. The water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using the water hardness dial and electronically.

Use of dishwasher salt
WARNING!
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers. All other types of salt not spe­cifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water soft­ener. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilt, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.
2.
Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time) .
Use of rinse aid
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the container is full.
4. Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.
5. Replace the cap tightly turning it clock­wise until it stops with a click.
Do not worry if water overflows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal.
The salt indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has been replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains switched on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then this can take longer. The function of the machine is not affected.
Use of rinse aid
WARNING!
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.
9
Rinse aid ensures thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse.
1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A).
Daily use
10
2. Add the rinse aid in the container. The maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".
The dispenser holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for between 16 and 40 dishwashing cycles, depending upon the dosage setting.
3. Ensure that the lid is closed after every re­fill.
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.
Adjusting the dosage of rinse aid
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position 1= minimum dosage, position 6= maximum dosage). The dose is factory set in position 4.
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.
Daily use
• Check if it's necessary to refill with dishwasher salt or rinse aid.
• Load cutlery and dishes into the dishwasher.
• Fill with dishwasher detergent.
• Select a wash programme suitable for the cutlery and dishes.
• Start the wash programme.
Load cutlery and dishes
Load cutlery and dishes
Sponges, household cloths and any object that can absorb water may not be washed in the dishwasher.
• Before loading the dishes, you should:
– Remove all left over food and debris. – Soften remnants of burnt food in pans
• When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note:
– Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the spray arms. – Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with the opening downwards so
that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base. – Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other. – To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch. – Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.
• Plastic items and pans with non stick coatings have a tendency to retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel items.
• Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.
For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery and dishes
are not suitable: are of limited suitability:
• Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother­of-pearls handles.
• Plastic items that are not heat resistant.
• Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant.
• Bonded cutlery items or dishes.
• Pewter or copper items.
• Lead crystal glass.
• Steel items prone to rusting.
• Wooden platters.
• Items made from synthetics fibres.
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
• Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is specially marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.
• Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently.
• Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing: Residues, e.g. egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore always clean left-overs from silver immedi­ately, if it is not to be washed straight after use.

Detergent tablets
Detergent tablets from different manufac­tures dissolve at different rates. For this reason, some detergent tablets do not attain their full cleaning power during short washing pro­grammes. Therefore, please use long washing programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent re­siduals.
Multi-tab function
This appliance is equipped with the "Multi-Tab function", that allows the use of the "Multi­Tab" combi detergent tablets. These products are detergents with a combined cleaning, rinsing and salt functions. They can also contain other different agents depending on which kind of tablets you choose ("3 in 1", "4 in 1", "5 in 1" etc...). Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hardness. See the manufac­turers instructions. This function can be selected with all washing programmes. With the selection of this function the inflow of rinse aid and salt from each respective supply container is auto­matically deactivated and also the indicator lights for salt and rinse aid are deactivated. Select the "Multi-Tab function " before the start of a washing programme. Once this function is selected (indicator light illuminated) it will remain active also for the following washing programmes. With the use of the "Multi-Tab function", the cycle durations may change. In this case, in the digital display, the indication of the running time of the programme is automatically updated.
Multi-tab function
Once the programme is running, the "Multi-Tab function " can NO longer be changed. If you want to exclude the "Multi-Tab function " you have to cancel the programme setting and then deactivate the "Multi-Tab function ". In this case you have to set a washing programme (and desired options) again.
