Do not place the appliance in a room where the temperature can fall below 0°C.
Before installing unpack the appliance following the instructions on the packaging.
When you move the appliance do not handle it by the door or control panel.
Leave some room on all sides to have convenient access to the dishwasher when cleaning.
Make sure that when you set the dishwasher you do not crush the water supply and drain hose. Also, make sure that the appliance is not places on the power cord.
Level the appliance using the adjustable legs. Proper level ensures trouble-free opening and clos­ing the dishwasher doors.
If the dishwasher door will not close properly, check that the appliance stands rmly on the oor, if
not, adjust using the adjustable legs.
WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION
Make sure that domestic water supply system is suitable for the dishwasher. It is recommended to
install a lter in the water supply line to avoid damage to the appliance due to impurities (such as
sand, clay, rust, etc.) that occasionally occur in water. This will also prevent accumulation of sedi­ment after dishwashing.
WATER SUPPLY HOSE
Do not use the water supply hose from the old dishwasher. Use the new water supply hose provided with the appliance. Before connecting, rinse the hose with water. Connect the water supply hose directly to the water feed valve. The domestic water system pres­sure should be at least 0.03 MPa and up to 1 MPa. If the water pressure exceeds 1 MPa, install pressure reducing valve. When the connection is ready, open the valve completely and check for leaks. For safety reasons, close the water supply tap after every wash.

min 50cm/max 110cm
min 50cm/max 110cm
occur with Aquastop. Do not cut the Aquastop water supply. Do not allow it to bend or twist
Note: For safety reasons, close the water tap after every wash
THE DRAIN HOSE
The drain hose can be connected directly to a water drain or kitchen sink stub pipe. You can also drain
the water directly into the sink using the special bracket (if available), placing the drain hose outlet on
the kitchen sink edge. The drain hose connection should be made at least 50 cm and up to 110 cm from
the oor.
If the drain hose is longer than 4 m, dishes may not be washed properly. The manufacturer will not be held responsible.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Grounded plug must be connected to a grounded power outlet with a proper voltage. If there is no
grounding, refer this to a qualied electrician. If you operate the appliance without proper grounding,
the manufacturer does not assume any liability for the possible resulting damage.

PREPARE THE APPLIANCE FOR OPERATION
Before rst use
1
Before using the appliance, verify that the data given on the rating plate matches that of local power outlets.
Remove all packing materials from inside of the appliance.
Prepare special salt (water softener).
Pour water into the special salt dispenser and then add about 1.5 kg of special salt
(dishwasher salt).
Pour rinse aid into the dispenser.
The importance of water descaling
2
A dishwasher requires soft water (with low calcium content) to operate eciently. Other­wise, white residue main remain on the dishes and inside the appliance. This has a negative
impact on the quality of dishwashing, rinsing and drying. When the water ows through
the softener, ions responsible for the water hardness are removed, and the water becomes soft, for best dishwashing results. Depending on the degree of water hardness, the ions responsible for water hardness accumulate quickly inside the water softener. Therefore,
the water softener must be regenerated to operate with the same eciency during the
next wash. This is why special salt is used in the dishwasher.
Add special salt
3
Only use special salt intended for dishwashers.
Any other type of salt that is not intended for use in a dishwasher, especially regular kitchen salt, will damage the water softener. In the event of damage caused by the use of the wrong salt, the manufacturer’s warranty is void and we will not be liable for damage.
Fill with special salt before running the washing programme.
This will prevent spilled special salt or salty water from remaining on the bottom of the device, which may cause corrosion.
1. Remove the lower basket from the appliance and unscrew the special salt dispenser cap.
2. Place the end of the funnel (included) in the hole and pour about 1.5 kg of salt.
3. Pour water into the dispenser until full. It is normal that a small amount of water spills out of the special salt dispenser.
4. After you ll the dispenser, screw the cap on.
5. When you l the dispenser with special salt, the add salt indicator goes out.
6. Start the washing programme immediately after lling the dispenser with special salt (the quick wash is recommended). Otherwise, salty water can damage the lters, the pump
or other important appliance components This is not covered by the warranty.
NOTE:
Fill the special salt dispenser when the special salt indicator on the control panel lights up. Depending on the rate of salt dissolution, the special salt indicator may still be on even
after lling the dispenser. If there is no special salt indicator on the control panel (on some models), you can estimate
when to top up the dispenser based on the number of wash cycles performed. If some special salt spills, run the soaking programme or a quick wash programme.
Use only the special salt intended for dishwashers!

The test strip
The dishwashing eectiveness is linked to water hardness. Therefore, the appliance is
equipped with a system to reduce the hardness of the water supply. The dishwashing
eectiveness is improved when the system is set correctly. To check water hardness
contact the municipal water company or determined the water hardness using test strip
(if available).
20
Fill the detergent dispenser
5
Open the detergent dispenser ap by pressing the detergent dispenser tab to release the lock as shown in the gure. The detergent dispenser features volume marking. Using these markings (lines) you can measure the correct amount of detergent. The dispenser can ac-
commodate a maximum of 30g of detergent. Open the pack with dishwasher detergent and in the case of heavily soiled dishes pour 25 cm³ detergent into the main wash compartment (A) or 15 cm³ for less soiled dishes (B). If the dishes remained unwashed for an extended period of time or if food has dried, pour 5 cm³ detergent into the pre-wash compartment and start the dishwasher. Depending on the
amount of soil and the water hardness you may need to add more detergent.
Please note that the setting may be dierent depending on the water contamination.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the detergent packaging.
21
Multi-component (multitab) detergents (eg. 2-in-1, 3-in-1, etc.)
6
7
There are three types of detergents:
1. Containing phosphates and chlorine,
2. Containing phosphates and no chlorine,
3. Containing no phosphates and no chlorine. The latest tablets are generally phosphate-free. Since phosphates have water softening properties, we recommend adding salt to the container even if the water hardness is only 6°dH. If you use phosphate-free detergent where water is hard, white residue may be visible on the dishes.
You can prevent this by increasing the amount of detergent. Chlorine-free deter-
gents have less bleaching eect. Stains may not be entirely removed. Select the
programme with a higher wash temperature. Generally, using multi-component detergents suitable results are obtained only under certain conditions. Such detergents contain rinse aid and/or special salt in a
specic amount. It is recommended to use special salt when using multi-component
tablets.
What you should pay attention to when using these tablets.
Always check the type of detergent used and whether it is a multi-component product.
Make sure that the detergent used is appropriate for tap water hardness.
Follow the instructions on the product packaging.
If the detergent is in the form of tablets, never place it the cutlery basket. Always place the tablet in the detergent dispenser compartment.
The use of these detergents yields good results only in certain applications. Using this type of detergent you should contact the manufacturer for information about proper use.
If you use the detergent properly and dishwasher settings are correct you can save on salt and/or rinse aid.
If dishwashing results while using 2-in-1 or 3-in-1 detergents are not satisfactory
(traces of lime scale on the dishes), please contact the detergent manufacturer.
The warranty does not cover complaints due to the use of multi-component deter­gents.
22
Recommended use: For best results using multi-component cleaning agents, add special salt and rinse aid in the dishwasher and set the water hardness and amount of rinse aid to the lowest setting.
The solubility of the detergent tablets made by dierent manufacturers can vary with
regard to temperature and time. It is therefore not recommended to use detergent tablets in quick programmes. It is recommended to use powder detergents in quick programmes.
Always store detergents in a dry, cool place, out of reach of children. Add detergent to the dispenser immediately before using the appliance.
Warning: If encounter another problem when using a multi-component detergent, please contact the detergent manufacturer.
Stop using multi-component detergents
Add special salt and rinse aid to dispensers.
Set the water hardness to the highest level (6) and run an empty dishwasher.
Adjust the water hardness.
Adjust rinse aid setting.
8
Add rinse aid to the dispenser and adjust setting
Use rinse aid to prevent the formation of white water drops, lime scale spots, white streaks that may occur on the dishes, as well as to improve the drying process. Con­trary to popular belief, it not only serves to obtain a shiny dishes, but also to facilitate
drying. For this reason, make sure there is always sucient amount of rinse aid in
the dispenser. If the rinse aid indicator on the control panel lights up, add rinse aid to the dispenser. To add rinse aid remove the dispenser lid by unscrewing it. Add rinse aid until the level indicator becomes dark. Replace the lid and turn it until markings align. Use
rinse aid level indicator to make sure the level is sucient. Dark colour indicates suf­cient rinse aid level in the dispenser, and the light colour indicates you need to add
rinse aid to the dispenser. You can adjust rinse aid dosage from 1 to 6. The factory setting for the rinse aid is 4. Adjust to a higher dose if streaks remain on the dishes after drying or to a lower dose if blue residue collets on the dishes.

In winter, the dishwasher must be protected against freezing temperature. After each wash:
1. Disconnect the dishwasher from power.
2. Turn o the water supply and disconnect the water inlet hose from the water valve.
3. Drain the water from the inlet hose and the water valve. (Collect the water in a bowl)
4. Reconnect the water inlet hose to the water valve.
5. Remove the lter and use a sponge to collect the water from the bottom of the dish­washer.
After each wash After each wash, close the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar, so that moisture and odours are not trapped inside.
Unplug the appliance Unplug the appliance from the wall outlet before any cleaning and maintenance.
Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents. Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the outer parts and the rubber seals of the dishwasher. Use only cloths and warm soapy water. To remove stains from the inside use a cloth dampened with water and a little vinegar or
cleaning detergent intended specically for dishwashers.
If the dishwasher is not used for a long time It is recommended to run the washing programme with an empty dishwasher, then unplug the appliance from power, close the water supply and leave the door slightly ajar. This pro­tects the gaskets and prevents the formation of unpleasant odours in the appliance.
Move the appliance If the appliance needs to be moved, try to keep it in an upright position. If absolutely una­voidable, you can rest the appliance on the back wall.
