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.

Installation and Assistance

If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an 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.

2.Arrange the dishwasher so that its sides or back panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or the wall. This appliance

can also be recessed under a single worktop* (see the Assembly Instruction sheet.)

3. 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.

4*. To adjust the height of the rear foot, turn the red hexagonal bushing on the lower central part at the front of the dishwasher using a hexagonal spanner with an opening of 8 mm. Turn the spanner in a clockwise direction to increase the height and in an anticlockwise direction to decrease it (see Building-in Instruction sheet attached to the documentation.)

Connecting the water and electricity supplies

Connection to the water and electricity supplies should only be performed by a qualified technician.

The dishwasher should not stand on the water hoses or electricity supply cable.

The appliance must be connected to the water supply network using new hoses.

Do not use old piping.

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.

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 (if you have a central heating system with radiators) provided that it

does not exceed a temperature of 60°C.

Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection to a cold water supply.

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.

EN

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 floor / 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.

		Immediately before the first washing, completely fill the salt
		dispenser with water and add only then approximately 1
		kg of salt (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt).
		The water may overflow: this is normal and is not a cause
		for concern. Select the water hardness value (see chapter
		entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). - After the salt has been
		poured into the machine, the LOW SALT indicator light*
		switches off.
		If the salt container is not filled, the water softener and
		the heating element may be damaged as a result.

The machine has a buzzer/set of tones (depending on the dishwasher model) to inform the user that a command has been implemented: power on, cycle end etc.

Loading the racks

Tips

Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and containers. No preventive rinsing is needed under running water.

Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not tip over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing the water to reach every surface and flow freely. Make sure that the lids, handles, trays and frying pans do not prevent the sprayer arms from rotating. Place any small items in the cutlery basket.

Since plastic dishes and non-stick frying pans usually retain more water drops, their drying will be not so good as that of ceramic or stainless-steel dishes.

Lightweight items such as plastic containers should be placed in the upper rack and arranged so that they cannot move. After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can rotate freely.

Lower rack

The lower rack can hold pans, lids, dishes, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Large plates and lids should ideally be placed at the sides.

Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower rack because in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher washing performance.

*Only available in selected models with different numbers and positions.

	Several dishwasher models are fitted with tip-up sectors*.
						EN
	They can be used in a vertical position when arranging dishes
	or in a horizontal position (lower) to load pans and salad bowls
	easily.

Cutlery basket

The modular basket can slide to optimise the space inside the lower rack. It is equipped with top grilles for improved cutlery arrangement.

Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be placed in the cutlery basket with the points facing downwards or they must be positioned horizontally in the tip-up compartments on the upper rack

Upper rack

Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery such as glasses, cups, saucers and shallow salad bowls.

Several dishwasher models are fitted with tip-up sectors*.

They can be used in a vertical position when arranging tea/ dessert saucers or in a lower position to load bowls and food containers.

9

	EN	Tip-up compartments with adjustable position
		The side tip-up compartments can be positioned at three
		different heights to optimize the arrangement of crockery inside
		the rack.
		Wine glasses can be placed safely in the tip-up compartments
		by inserting the stem of each glass into the corresponding slots.

Cutlery tray*

Some dishwasher models are fitted with a sliding tray which can be used to hold serving utensils or small cups. For optimum washing performance avoid positioning bulky crockery directly below the tray. The cutlery tray can be removed (see Figure).

Before loading the tray, make sure the supports are properly coupled to the upper rack (see Figure).

Theupperrackcanbeadjustedforheightbasedonrequirements: high position to place bulky crockery in the lower rack and low position to make the most of the tip-up compartments/sectors by creating more space upwards.

Adjusting the height of the upper rack

In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper rack may be moved to a higher or lower position.

The height of the upper rack should be adjusted WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.

NEVER raise or lower the rack on one side only.

If the rack is equipped with a Lift-Up device* (see figure), lift it up by holding its sides. To restore the lower position, press the levers (A) at the sides of the rack and follow the rack down.

Unsuitable crockery

•Wooden crockery and cutlery.

•Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique crockery. Their decorations are not resistant.

•Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high temperatures.

•Copper and tin crockery.

•Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink. The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can change and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass (e.g. crystal objects) can become opaque after a number

of wash cycles too.

Damage to glass and crockery

Caused by:

•Type of glass and glass production process.

•Chemical composition of detergent.

•Water temperature of rinse cycle.

Tips:

•Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the manufacturer as dishwasher safe.

•Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery.

•Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as the wash cycle is over.

*Only available in selected models.
