Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

A. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
B. Function of detergent

A. Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

Function of Rinse Aid

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, spot and streak
free drying.

Attention!

Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other
substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

When to Refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

You can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the colour of the optical level indicator "D" located next to

the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole indicator will be dark .As the rinse aid
diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1 / 4 full.

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the
black dot on the rinse aid level indicator
changes, as illustrated below.

Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the "closed" (right)
arrow.

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes
that can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to sheet off the dishes.
Your dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the
door next to the detergent dispenser.
To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator
turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid container is about 140ml.
Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any spills
with a damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.

B. Function of Detergent

Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out
of the dishwasher. Most of commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.

4

Concentrated Detergent

Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher can be split in two basic types:

conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components

low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
The use of "normal" washing programme in conjunction with concentrated detergents reduces
pollution and is good for your dishes; these washing programmes are specially matched to the dirt­dissolving properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason"normal"
washing programme in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that
can otherwise only be achieved using"intensive" programme.

Fill in the detergent

Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent.

Detergent Tablets

Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent
cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please
use long programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent
residuals.

Detergent Dispenser

The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each washing cycle following the instructions
provided in the Wash Cycle Table. Your dishwashers use less detergent and rinse aid than
conventional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed fora normal wash
load. Also, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before
starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

Amount of Detergent to Use

11 22

NOTE:

1

If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid springs open.

2

Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle. Only use branded detergent aid
for dishwasher.

WARNING!

Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.
Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.

Please observe the manufacturer's dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the
detergent packaging.

5 Loading the Dishwasher Baskets

For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance
of baskets and Cutlery tray may vary from your model.

Attention before or after Loading the Dishwasher Baskets

1. Scrape off any large amounts of leftover food. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under
running water. Place objects in the dishwasher in the following way:

A. Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are stood upside down.
B. Curve items, or those with recesses, should be at a slant so that water can run off.
C. They are stacked securely and can not tip over.
D. They do not prevent the spray arms from rotating while washing takes place.

2. Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the
Baskets.

3. The upper and lower baskets can not be pull out in the same time when the dishwasher is loading,
or it may lead to dumping.

Removing the Dishes
To prevent water dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we recommend that you
empty the lower basket first and then the upper basket.

Loading the Lower Basket

We recommend that you place large items which are most difficult to clean in to the lower basket:
pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure below.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the baskets in order to avoid blocking
the rotation of the top spray arm.
Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed top down.
Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to flow out.
The bottom basket features fold down tine rows so that larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.

arm. Wash the arms in soapy and warm water and use a soft
brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing thoroughly.

Caring for the Dishwasher

To clean the control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth then
dry thoroughly.
To clean the exterior, use a good appliance polish wax.
Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners
on any part of the dishwasher.

Protect Against Freezing

If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technical to:

1.Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.

2.Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.

3.Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)

4.Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.

5.Remove the filter in the tub and the bottom and use a sponge to use up water in sump

NOTE: If operate from step 1 to step 2, the filter system will be removed; while operate from step 2

to step 1, the filter system will be installed .

Filter assembly

For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned. The filter efficiently removes
food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it
is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing
the semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull on the cup
handle in the upward direction. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned once a week. To clean
the coarse filter and the micro filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown
in the figures above and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat and
pressing downward. The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement
of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.

14

Cleaning the Door

To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp rag. To prevent
penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any
kind.
Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they will scratch
the finish. Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

WARNING!

Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel for it could damage the door lock and electrical
components. It is not allowed to use the abrasive agent or some paper towel because of the risk of
scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.

How to Keep Your Dishwasher in Shape

After Every Wash

After every wash, turn off the water supply
to the appliance and leave the door slightly
ajar so that moisture and odors are not
trapped inside.

Remove the Plug

Before cleaning or performing
maintenance, always remove the plug from
the socket. Do not run risks.

No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of
the dishwasher, do not use solvents or
abrasive cleaning products. Use only a
cloth and warm soapy water. To remove
spots or stains from the surface of the
interior, use a cloth dampened with water
and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning
product made specifically for dishwashers.

When You Go on holiday

When you go on holiday, it is
recommended that you run a wash cycle
with the dishwasher empty and then
remove the plug from the socket, turn off
the water supply and leave the door of the
appliance slightly ajar. This will help the
seals last longer and prevent odors from
forming in the appliance.

Moving the Appliance

If the appliance must be moved, try to keep
it in the vertical position. If absolutely
necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

Seals

One of the factors that cause odors to form
in the dishwasher is food that remains
trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with
a damp sponge will prevent this.

3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the
appliance may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position (the angle of inclination must not
exceed 2 degrees). 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 operation.

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 top of the water hoses or the electricity supply cable
The appliance must be connected to the water supply network using new piping. Do not use old
piping.

Connecting the wate r inle t hose

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4(inch)
connector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place.
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 the appliance could be damaged.

Warning

Attention:

The installation of the pipes
and electrical equipments
should be done by professionals.

8. Installation

Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference. If the appliance is sold, given
away or moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the machine, so that the new owner may
benefit from the advice contained within it.
Please read this instruction manual carefully: it contains important information regarding the safe
installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.
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 leveling

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 and further with the
installation process.

2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or back panel are in contact with the adjacent
cabinets or even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single worktop (see the
Assembly instruction sheet).

16

Electrical Shock Hazard!
Disconnect electrical power before
installing dishwasher.
Failure to do so can result in death or
electrical shock.

Connecting the water outlet hose

Fit the drainage hose of your machine to the drainage pipe
without bending.
If the length of the hose is not sufficient, apply to the

min120mm

min 40mm

Max1000mm

Min400mm

authorized service for an extension made from the same
material as the original. Remember that the length of the
hose should not exceed 4meters even when with an
extension.
If the drainage hose is longer the 4 m. the dishes will not
be cleaned properly secure your hose firmly to the drainage
pipe to avoid it coming off during the washing process.

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.

For opt iona l

17

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)

The company shall not be held responsible for any incidents that occur if these regulations are
not observed.

Advice regarding the first wash cycle

After the appliance has been installed, immediately before running the first wash cycle, completely
fill the dispenser of Rinse (see Rinse aid ).

Start of Dishwasher

The followings should be checked before starting the dishwasher:
1 Whether the dishwasher is level and fixed
2 Whether the inlet valve is opened
3 Whether there is leakage at the connections of the conducts
4 Whether the wires are tightly connected
5 Whether the power is switched on
6 Whether the inlet and drain hoses are knotted
7 All packing materials and printings should be taken out from the dishwasher

Attention

After installation, please put this manual into the bags of printings.
The content of this manual is very helpful to the users.

Positioning the Appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and
the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and
drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.

Leveling the Appliance

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the height of the
dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2 .

NOTE: The maximum adjustment height of the feet is 20 mm.

How to Drain Excess Water From Hoses

If the sink is 1000mm higher from the floor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly
into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or a suitable
container that is held outside and lower than the sink.

Water Outlet

Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.
Ensure that the water inlet hose is not kinked or squashed.

Extension Hose

If you need a drain hose extension, observe to use a similar drain hose..
It must be no longer than 4 metres; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be
reduced.

Syphon Connection

The waste connection must be at a height of between 50cm (minimum) and 100cm (maximum)
from the bottom of the dish. The water drain hose should be fixed by a hose clip.

warm water to remove the stains by hand.
WARNING
You have to wait for 20 minutes after a cycle to let the
heating elements cool down before cleaning interior;
otherwise, burns will happen.

You have to call a water softener company for a special
filter.

To clean the interior, use a damp sponge with
dishwasher detergent and wear rubber gloves. Never
use any other cleaner than dishwasher detergent for the
risk of foaming or suds.

Clean the detergent from the catch.

Re-loading the dishes properly.

There is some steam coming through the vent by the
door latch during drying and water draining.

Use a mild abrasive cleaner to eliminate those marks.

A small amount of clean water around the outlet on
the tub bottom keeps the water seal lubricated.

Be careful not to overfill the rinse aid dispenser.
Spilled rinse aid could cause oversudsing and lead
to overflowing. Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth.

Make sure the dishwasher is level.
