Using your dishwasher
Before first use
o Install the appliance as per the installation instructions contained
within this booklet.
o Fill the water softener with 1 litre of tap water and then fill with
specialist dishwasher salt. After this you should set the water
softener level.
o Fill the rinse aid dispenser and then set the rinse aid dosage.
Filling with dishwasher salt
IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially
designed for use in a dishwasher. If any other type of salt is
used in the appliance (in particular table salt), it will damage
the water softener.
o Ideally you should fill the water softener with salt, just before
you are about to run a wash program. This will help to clear any
salt that may have overflowed from the water softener during
the salt filling process.
o Open the door of the dishwasher and then unhook the basket
from the door. The basket should be empty when you remove it.
o Turn the water softener cap
anticlockwise and remove it.
o Pour 1 litre of water into the water
softener.
IMPORTANT: It is only necessary to do this when you fill
the container with salt for the first time.
o Ensure that the supplied funnel is
positioned correctly.
11
o Pour salt into the water softener, you
should add approximately 1 kg of salt
into the water softener.
o It is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of
the water softener, whilst you are filling it with salt. This does
not mean that the water softener is filled with the correct
amount of salt.
o Refit and fully tighten the water softener cap.
o To remove any excess salt that may have spilled out of the
water softener, we would recommend that the rapid wash
program is completed afterwards.
o When the salt required neon (J) lights on the control panel, then
you should follow the “filling with dishwasher salt” procedure
again.
o IMPORTANT: You do not need to pour 1 litre of water into
the container when you subsequently fill the water
softener with salt.
Setting the water softener level
It is possible to regulate the amount of salt that the water softener will
release during a wash cycle. The water softener should be set to a
level that is appropriate for the hardness of your water (please refer to
the table below).
Display °dH °fH °Clarke
0 0 – 6 0 – 10 0 – 7 0 – 1
1 6 – 14 11 – 25 8 – 18 1.1 – 2.5
2 15 – 22 26 – 40 19 – 28 2.6 – 4
3 23 – 28 41 – 50 29 – 35 4.1 – 5.0
4 > 28 > 50 > 35 >5.0
o The dishwasher will leave the factory with the water softener on
setting 2.
mmol/l
12
You should adjust the amount of salt that is released by the machine
taking into account the water hardness of your geographical area, to
do this you should:-
o Close the door of the dishwasher, you will hear a mechanical
click when the door of the dishwasher is shut properly.
o Press the ON/OFF key (A) to switch the machine on, the LED
display will light up and show “P0”. Immediately press and hold
the program selection key (B) until the LED display is showing a
flashing “h0”.
o To alter the water hardness setting, use the additional rinse key
(D) to cycle through numbers 0 – 4.
o When the LED display shows the water softener setting that you
require, press the program selection button to confirm your
choice. The LED display will show “P0” to indicate that the
dishwasher is ready to program.
o If you live in a soft water area and as a result select setting “0”
for the water softener, there is no need to fill the water softener
with dishwasher salt. The salt required icon (J) will remain lit.
o IMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets then it
may still be necessary to fill the water softener. You should refer
to the instructions given by the dishwasher salt manufacturer. If
they suggest using 3 in 1 tablets and separate dishwasher salt,
we would recommend that water softener setting 1 is selected.
Filling with rinse aid
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse and it helps
to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes.
These droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on
items after the wash program has completed.
o Your dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aid.
o The rinse aid container is located on the inside of the dishwasher
door.
o To access the rinse aid
dispenser, you should turn and
remove the cap to reveal the
spout.
13
o Slowly pour in liquid
rinse aid, the rinse aid
dispenser will hold
approximately 100ml
of rinse aid.
o You should continue to fill with rinse aid until the dispenser is
full. Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, as this could cause
oversudsing when a wash program is selected. Wipe away any
rinse aid excess or spillages with a damp cloth.
o Replace the cap and turn it until it locks into position.
o When the rinse aid required neon (K) lights on the control panel,
then you should follow the “filling with rinse aid” procedure
again.
o IMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets then it
may still be necessary to fill the rinse aid dispenser. You should
refer to the instructions given by the rinse aid manufacturer.
Setting the rinse aid level
The amount of rinse aid that the dishwasher requires also depends on
the hardness of your water. You should experiment with the rinse aid
setting, until you find a level that gives the best results.
o The dishwasher will leave the factory with the water softener on
setting “A1”.
o The rinse aid level can only be set whilst the LED display is
showing “P0”.
o Close the door of the dishwasher, you will hear a mechanical
click when the door of the dishwasher is shut properly.
o Press the ON/OFF key (A) to switch the machine on, the LED
display will light up and show “P0”. Immediately press and hold
the delay start key (C) until the LED display is showing “A1”.
o To alter the rinse aid setting, use the additional rinse key (D) to
cycle through A0 – A2.
