|
manufactured in compliance with international |
||
|

|
future reference. If the appliance is sold, given |
|
|
away or moved, please ensure the manual is kept |
|
|
with the machine. |
|
|
Please read these instructions carefully: they |
|
|
contain important information on installation, use |
|
|
and safety. |
This appliance is designed for domestic use or similar applications, for example:
-staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other work environments;
-farmhouses;
-use by guests in hotels, motels and other residential settings;
-bed & breakfasts.
General safety
•The appliance should not be operated by people (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, or by inexperienced people who are not familiar with the product, unless supervision or instructions on how to use it are provided by someone who assumes responsibility for their safety.
•An adult must supervise children at all times to prevent them from playing with the appliance.
•The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.
•The appliance must be used by adults only to wash domestic crockery in accordance with the instructions in this manual.
•The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the machine exposed to rain and storms.
•Do not touch the appliance when barefoot.
•When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from the mains socket. Do not pull on the cable.
•The water supply tap must be shut off and the plug should be removed from the electrical socket before cleaning or maintaining the appliance.
•If the appliance breaks down, do not under any circumstances touch the internal parts in an attempt to perform the repair work yourself.
•Do not lean or sit on the open door of the appliance: this may cause the appliance to overturn.
•The door should not be left open as it may create
a dangerous obstacle.
•Keep detergent and rinse aid out of reach of children.
•The packaging material should not be used as a toy for children.
Disposal
•Disposal of packaging material: observe local legislation so that the packaging may be reused.
•The European Directive 2012/19/EU relating to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) states that household appliances should not be disposed of using the normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances should be collected separately in order to optimise the re-using and recycling rate of the materials inside the machine, while preventing potential damage to the environment and public health. The crossed-out dustbin symbol is marked on all products to remind the owners of their obligations regarding separated waste collection.
For further information relating to the correct disposal of household appliances, owners may contact the relevant public authority or the local appliance dealer.
Saving energy and respecting the environment
Saving water and energy
•Only begin a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full. While waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent unpleasant odours using the Soak cycle (see Wash cycles).
•Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of crockery and to the soil level of the crockery using the Table of wash cycles:
-for dishes with a normal soil level use the Eco wash cycle, which ensures low energy/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 when electricity prices are lower. The Delayed Start button * (see Start-up and use) helps you organise the wash cycles accordingly.
* Only available in selected models.

Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents |
EN |
|
containing enzymes |
||
|
•Westronglyrecommendthatyouusedetergents that do not contain phosphates or chlorine, as these products are harmful to the environment.
•Enzymes provide a particularly effective action at temperatures around 50°C. As a result detergents containing enzymes can be used in conjunction with low-temperature wash cycles in order to achieve the same results as a normal
65°C wash cycle.
•To avoid wasting detergent, use the product in appropriate quantities based on the manufacturer’s recommendations, the hardness of the water, the soil level and the quantity of crockery to be washed. Even if they are biodegradable, detergents contain substances which may alter the balance of nature.

Installation
If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an EN upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be tilted onto its
back.
Positioning and levelling
1.Remove the appliance from all packaging and check that it has not been damaged during transportation. If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed any further
with the installation process.
This appliance can also be recessed under a single worktop*
(see the Assembly Instruction sheet)
2.Position the dishwasher on a level sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance should be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position. If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to move or
cause vibrations and noise while it is operating.
Connecting the water and electricity supplies
Connection to the water and electricity supplies should only be performed by a qualified technician.
The water inlet and outlet hoses and the electricity supply cable may be positioned towards the right or the left in order to achieve the best possible installation.
Attention, do not crush during installation
Connecting the water inlet hose
•To a suitable cold water connection point: before attaching the hose, run the water until it is perfectly clear so that any impurities that may be present in the water do not clog the appliance; after performing this operation, screw the inlet hose tightly onto a tap with a ¾ gas threaded connection.
•To a suitable hot water connection point: your dishwasher may be supplied with hot water from the mains supply provided that it does not exceed a temperature of 60°C.
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 adjacent information.)
The hose should not be bent or compressed.
Connecting the water outlet hose
Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drain duct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm.
The outlet hose must be at a height ranging from 40 to 80 cm from the surface where the dishwasher rests (A).
Before connecting the water outlet hose to the sink drain, remove the plastic plug (B).
Anti-flooding protection
To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:
- is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply in the event of anomalies or leaks from inside the appliance.
Some models are also equipped with the supplementary safety device New Acqua Stop*, which guarantees anti-flooding protection even in the event of a supply hose rupture.
WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE!
Under no circumstances should the water inlet hose be cut, as it contains live electrical parts.
Electrical connection
Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, make sure that:
•The socket is earthed and complies with current regulations.
•the socket can withstand the maximum load of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on the inside of the door
(see Description of the appliance);
•The power supply voltage falls within the values indicated on the data plate on the inside of the door.
•The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If this is not the case, ask an authorised technician to replace the plug (see Assistance); do not use extension cables or multiple sockets.
Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and the electrical socket should be easily accessible.
The cable should not be bent or compressed.
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its Technical Assistance Service in order to prevent all potential hazards (see Assistance.)
* Only available in selected models.

Anti-condensation strip*
Before installing the dishwasher, stick the adhesive transparent strip under the wooden shelf in order to protect it from any condensation which may form.
