How to load your dishes
Before washing, a few small steps can help you get a better wash and keep your dishwasher for longer.
Remove the largest scraps of food left over on your plates, soak saucepans and frying pans with tough
incrustations. After loading your dishes, make sure the blades on the sprayer arm turn well.
Do not place glasses and cups on top of one another, and make sure the dishes are not
touching.
First of all.
Before placing the dishes in the
racks, remove the largest scraps
of food left over on your plates, you
will thus avoid blocking the filter,
which would reduce the efficacy
of the wash.
If the saucepans and frying pans
are very dirty, allow them to soak
before being washed. To make it
easier to load your dishes, pull the
racks out.
What goes into the
lower rack?
We recommend you place the most
difficult dishes to wash into the
lower rack: saucepans, lids, soup
dishes and plates (a load example
is shown in the photo).
Serving dishes and large
lids: place them on the sides
of the rack.
Saucepans, salad bowls:
must always be placed upside
down
Very deep dishes: place
them obliquely, thus allowing
water to run down them and
cleaning them better
What goes into the
upper rack?
Place delicate and lightweight
dishes in the upper rack: glasses,
tea cups and coffee cups, saucers but plates too - shallow salad bowls,
slightly dirty frying pans and
shallow pans.
Position lightweight dishes in such
as way as to avoid their being
moved by the spray of water.
How to adjust the top
rack.
The upper rack can be set in high
or low position to enable you to
organise your dishes effortlessly.

It is best if you place longer utensils
horizontally at the front of the upper
rack.
After loading the dishes, remember
to check that the blades on the
sprayer arms can turn freely
without hitting against any dishes.
Open the rail stop flaps and pull the
rack out completely. Now place it in
high or low position, then slide it
along the guide rails until the front
wheels also go in. Now close the rail
stop flaps. Follow the sequence of
actions illustrated in figure "F".

Starting the dishwasher
Ready, steady, go!
You have loaded your dishes and you now have
to set the wash cycle. It takes just one minute
to learn how
First of all.
After performing all the operations
described in the previous paragraphs, turn the water tap on completely, open the appliance door and
press ON-OFF button "A": indicator light "B" comes on. Your appliance is now on and awaiting instructions.
Selecting the wash
cycle.
Select the wash cycle by pressing
button "P". Each time this button
is pressed, one of the indicator
lights "M" will come on in sequence,
select the wash cycle you deem
most suitable for the type of dishes
to wash (take a look at page 5,
where you will find the wash cycle
table). Close the appliance door and
after a few seconds, the wash cycle will begin.
Modifying a wash cycle in
progress.
But if you have chosen the wrong
cycle, not to worry! You can modify
the wash cycle in progress, if it has
only just started. Open the appliance door carefully to avoid any
hot water splashes, then keep button "P" pressed for approximately
5 seconds . Indicator light "M" will
come off and at this point, all the
settings will have been cancelled.
You are now free to re-set the correct wash cycle.
You've left out a dish?
Well, it happens to everyone. Interrupt the wash cycle by opening the
appliance door with the utmost
care, as usual, then insert the dish
you had forgotten. When you shut
the appliance door, the cycle will
start up from where you interrupted
it.
Finished?
The end of the wash cycle is indicated by the flashing of the wash
cycle indicator light "M". Open the
dishwasher door, press the ON-OFF
button as well, thus cutting off the
electricity supply to the appliance.
Turn off the water tap.
Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishes: they are very hot! If
you wait a little while, they dry
better thanks to the steam. Empty
the upper rack first.
Make sure the
wash cycle has
ended before
removing the
dishes!
There's been a power failure? Have you opened the
dishwasher door?
The wash cycle stops and then restarts when the electricity comes
back on or when you shut the door.
Everything is under control!
Warning:
When you open the
dishwasher door
after the wash cycle
has just ended or is
under way, take
care not to scald
yourself with the
hot steam!
Select the right
wash cycle for
your dishes.
Selecting the
most suitable
wash cycle for
the load ensures
clean dishes and
a more
convenient use of
water and
electricity.

Detergent and rinse aid
D
Only use specific dishwasher detergents. Pour the detergent into the
dispenser on the inside of the door. Before the wash cycle starts!
The detergent
Loading the detergent
To open lid A, press button B. The
detergent should be poured into the
two containers C and D up to the
rim.
Now you can close the lid: press it
down until you hear it click. If you
prefere to use the detergent in
tablets, place one of these in
container D. Now you can close
the lid: press it down until you hear
it click.
The rinse aid.
This product makes dishes sparkle
more as it improves their drying.
The rinse aid container is situated
on the inside of the door. You should
fill it up on average every 80 wash
cycles (if your dishwasher is
provided with the "low rinse aid"
indicator light, then fill it up when
it comes on).
It won't close!
Check whether there is any
detergent residue on the edges of
the dispenser. It is due to this residue that the lid won't close. Get rid
of it and you'll see that it closes.
Loading the rinse aid.
To open the dispenser, turn cap C
anticlockwise. Take care when you
pour in the rinse aid to avoid it
overflowing. You can adapt the
amount of rinse aid used by the
dishwasher: regulate the adjuster
F which you will find under lid C.

Never without salt
Water in your home
Water hardness varies according to where you live. If the water in your home is
hard, without water softening, incrustations would form on your dishes. Your
dishwasher is fitted with a water softener which uses special salt to get rid of
To prevent rust
from forming, load
the salt just before
beginning a wash
limescale in the water.
Loading the salt.
Always use salt which is intended
for dishwasher use.
The salt container is situated
underneath the lower rack, fill it
up as follows:
1.Pull out the lower rack
completely, unscrew and
remove the container cap
2. Is it the first time you load the
salt? First fill the container up
with water (you won't have to
do this again next time)
3. Put the dishwasher funnel on the
hole and pour in approximately
two kilos of salt. It is normal
that some water comes out of
the container.
4. Screw the cap back in place
carefully.
When should I load the salt?
Low Salt Indicator
This green device is located at the
centre of the cap for the
decalcification cartridge and it
indicates whether the container is
full.
When the indicator is not visible it
means that the supply of salt must
be replenished (see the section
entitled, "Loading the salt").
Intelligent salt.
Your dishwasher can adjust its salt
consumption according to the
hardness of the water in your home.
This way, you can optimise and
customise your dishwasher's salt
consumption (not too much, nor too
little).
To adjust salt consumption, do as
follows:
1. Unscrew the salt container cap
2. There is an arrow on the neck of
the container (see figure): if
necessary, turn the arrow anticlockwise from the "-" setting
to the "+" setting.
Select the arrow position
depending on the water hardness,
referring to the table provided.

Suggestions and advice for you.
How to look after and protect the dishes you hold dear
■ Almost all silverware can be
cleaned in a dishwasher.
There are two exceptions: old
silverware and silverware
decorated with an oxidising
agent. Hot water can loosen
the handles on old silverware
ad wear off the decorations on
the other.
Never let silverware come into
contact with other metals: you
will thus avoid stains and
blackening
Apart from
making you save
time and energy,
your dishwasher
disinfects your
dishes, washing
them at a high
temperature.
■ Silver plates and serving dishes
should be washed immediately
after use, especially if they have
contained salt, eggs, olives,
mustard, vinegar, fruit juices
and cooked vegetables.
■ For particularly delicate dishes,
we recommend you use the
specific wash cycle offered by
your dishwasher.
Savings are easy
Using your electric household appliances
wisely helps you make savings and is
good for the environment.
Maximum load.
To optimise consumption levels, try to use the
dishwasher with a full load only. If it takes
quite some time to fill up your dishwasher,
use the soak cycle to avoid the formation of
bad odours and caked-on food.
The right wash cycle.
Select the most suitable wash cycle for the
type of load you have placed in the dishwasher.
The choice of wash cycle depends on the type
of dishes to wash and on how dirty they are.
To select the right wash cycle, please consult
the wash cycle table on page 5.

Installation and moving
D
Your dishwasher has arrived
After having bought or moved your dishwasher to another home, a correct installation ensures that your
dishwasher will operate smoothly and efficiently.
Choose where you want to install
your dishwasher, you can even
place it so that its sides or back
panel are side by side with furniture
or up against the wall. The
dishwasher is provided with water
supply and drain hoses, which can
be directed towards the left or right
to facilitate appropriate
installation.
Fig.2
A
Levelling.
Once the appliance is positioned,
adjust the feet by screwing them in
or out depending on how high you
want it and to level it so that it is
horizontal. Make sure that it is not
inclined more than 2 degrees. If the
appliance is level, it will help ensure
its correct operation.
Adjusting the Feet
Insert the appliance into the cutout
and then adjust the height using the
screws located on the front bottom
part of the machine. Use a
screwdriver to turn the screws in
the clockwise or anti-clockwise
direction to increase or decrease
the height respectively.
Cold water connection.
Connect the cold water supply
hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas)
connector, inserting the small filter
supplied with the dishwasher and
making sure that it is fastened
tightly in place (see figure 2).
If the water pipes are new or have
not been used for an extended
period of time, let the water run to
make sure that the water is clear
and free of impurities. If this
precaution is not taken, there is a
risk that the water inlet can get
blocked and damage the appliance.
Hot water connection.
Your dishwasher can be supplied
with hot water from the mains
supply (if you have a central heating
system with radiators) at a temperature of no more than 60°C.
In this case, the wash cycle time
will be about 15 minutes shorter
and the wash will be slightly less
effective.
The connection must be made to
hot water supply following the
same procedures as those indicated
for the cold water connection.
Drain hose connection.
Fit the drain hose into a drain pipe
with a minimum diameter of 4 cm
or place it over the sink. Avoid
restricting or bending it. Use the
special plastic elbow provided (see
figure) to position it in the best
possible way. The free end of the
hose should be between 40 and 100
cm above the ground and should
not be immersed in water.
A
Electrical connection.
First of all, check that the mains
voltage and frequency values
correspond to those stated on the
rating plate located on the stainless
steel inner door of the appliance
and that the electrical system to
which the dishwasher is connected
is sized for the maximum current
indicated on said rating plate.
Earth: indispensable
safety.
Only now can you plug the
appliance into a socket provided
with an efficient earth connection
(the system's earthing is a
guarantee of safety provided for by
law, make sure your system has
it).
Power supply wire.
Check the power supply wire on a
regular basis; if it is damaged, we
recommend you have it replaced
by an authorised technical
Assistance service centre.
If the power
socket to which
the appliance is
connected is not
compatible with
the plug, replace
it with a suitable
plug rather than
using adapters or
multiple plugs as
these could cause
overheating or
burns.
The special
plastic elbow
should be
fastened firmly
onto the wall to
prevent the drain
hose from
moving and
allowing water to
spill outside the
drain.

■ Is the rinse aid dosage correct?
Error messages.
The dishwasher is equipped with a
safety system which is able to
detect any operating anomalies.
These anomalies are signalled by
the rapid flashing of one of the
wash cycle indicator lights M.
If the indicator light for the soak
cycle flashes (see wash cycle table),
cancel the wash cycle by following
the instructions indicated in the
"Modifying a wash cycle in
progress" paragraph on page 4.
Now check whether there is any
water in the mains supply and that
the tap is turned on; if the error
message persists, then call for
technical assistance, indicating
which message appeared.
If the indicator light for any wash
cycle apart from the soak cycle
flashes rapidly, turn the appliance
off and call for technical
assistance, indicating which
message appeared.
You have checked
everything, but the
dishwasher still doesn't
work and the problem
persists?
Call an authorised service centre
near you and remember to mention:
the type of malfunction
the model mark (Mod.) and the
serial number (S/N.) indicated on
the rating plate located on the inner
door, to one side.
Never call upon
the services of
unauthorised
technicians and
always refuse
spare parts
that are not
originals.
Safety within your home
Your dishwasher was built in accordance with the strictest international safety regulations. They protect
you and your family. Read the instructions and information contained in this manual: they will provide
you with useful hints as to installation, use and maintenance safety. To avoid nasty surprises.
1. Dispose of the packaging
material carefully (follow the
instructions on how to divide
your rubbish up provided by
your local Council)
2. After removing the packaging,
check to make sure your
appliance is intact. If in doubt,
contact a qualified
professional.
3. Your dishwasher must only be
used by adults and for washing
household dishes, according to
the instructions included in
this manual. Do not touch the
appliance with wet hands or
feet or barefoot.
4. We discourage the use of
extension leads and multiple
plugs. If the electricity supply
wire is not long enough, then
have it replaced with one of
the correct length and
remember that it should be
free of bends or dangerous
kinks.
5. If the appliance is not operating
properly or if maintenance
operations are necessary,
disconnect the dishwasher
from the mains power supply
(unplug it!).
6. Keep children away from the
dishwasher when it is open and
keep detergents out of their
reach.
7. Your dishwasher is not to be
installed outdoors, not even if
the area is covered by a roof:
it is extremely dangerous to
leave it exposed to rain and
thunderstorms.
8. Do not touch the heating
element during or straight after
a wash cycle.
9. Do not lean or sit on the door
when it is open, as this could
overturn the dishwasher.
10. If the appliance malfunctions,
turn off the water inlet tap and
disconnect the plug from the
wall socket. Then try
consulting the section entitled
"I you have a problem, read
this". If you cannot resolve the
problem, then call the service
centre.
I only want an authorised
specialised technician with original
Ariston guaranteed spare parts

Care and maintenance
Cleaning and special maintenance
The filter assembly
If you want consistent good results
from your dishwasher, you need to
clean the filter assembly.
Thanks to the filter, the food
particles are removed from the
wash water, allowing it to be
recirculated during the cycle,
filtered perfectly. For this reason,
it is a good idea to remove the larger
food particles trapped inside the
semi-circular filter A and cup after
each wash. All you need to do is
rinse them under running water. To
remove the filter assembly, pull the
cup handle upwards.
The entire filter assembly should
be cleaned thoroughly once a
month: cup C + semi-circular filter
A + microfilter B.
To clean the filter and the
microfilter, use a toothbrush.
Reassemble the filter parts (as
shown in the figure) and reinsert
the whole assembly into the
C

dishwasher. Position it into its
housing and press downwards.
The dishwasher is not to be used
without filters. Improper
replacement of the filters may
reduce the efficiency of the wash
and even damage your dishwasher.

Food residue may become
encrusted onto the sprayer arms
and block the holes where water
comes out. Check the sprayer arms
regularly and clean them once in a
while (letters F and I How is it
made?).
Once in a while,
once a month,
spend a little
time on the filter
assembly and the
sprayer arms.
Keep your dishwasher in shape
Respecting these few rules ensures you will always
have a reliable work companion by your side.
After every wash.
When the wash cycle has ended,
always remember to turn off the
water supply tap and to leave the
appliance door ajar. This way,
moisture and bad odours will not
be trapped inside.
Unplug the appliance.
Before carrying out any cleaning
or maintenance on the dishwasher,
always remove the plug from the
electricity socket. Do not run risks.
No solvents! No abrasives!
To clean the exterior and rubber
parts of your appliance, do not use
solvents or abrasive cleaning
products. Use a cloth dampened
with lukewarm soapy water only.
If there are any stains on the
surface of the appliance interior,
use a cloth dampened with water
and a little white vinegar, or a
cleaning product specifically made
for dishwashers.
Going on holiday?
When you go away for an extended
period of time, we recommend you
do the following:
run a cycle with the dishwasher
empty
turn off the water inlet tap.
leave the appliance door ajar
This will help the seals last longer
and prevent unpleasant odours
from forming inside the appliance.
Moving the appliance.
Should the appliance have to be
moved, try to keep it in a vertical
position. If absolutely necessary, it
can be positioned on its back.
The seals.
One of the factors that cause
unpleasant odours to form inside
the dishwasher is food that remains
trapped in the seals. Periodic
cleaning using a damp sponge will
prevent this from occurring.
Your dishwasher is not a waste
disintegrator!
Do not worry about removing every
single bit of food residue from your
dishes, but do get rid of bones, peel and
rind and any other left-overs before
placing them in the racks. Empty out
all glasses and cups.
