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
Page 12
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
Page 13
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
Page 14
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.
14
Page 15
o When the LED display shows the rinse aid 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 get water spots and poor drying performance, then the
rinse aid level should be increased to a higher level.
o You should continue to increase the rinse aid level until you get
no water spots.
o If you get cloudiness or streaking on your dishes, the rinse aid
level is set too high and it is causing foaming during the wash
cycle. The rinse aid level should be decreased to a lower level.
Filling with dishwasher detergent
The detergent dispenser must be refilled at the start of each wash
cycle.
o Your dishwasher is designed to use detergent tablets, you
should place one per wash cycle in the cutlery basket (in the
position shown in the above picture).
o If you are not placing the cutlery basket inside the dishwasher
on a particular wash cycle, then it is possible to place the
detergent tablet in one of the corners of the drip tray (see
above picture).
15
Page 16
o If you are using powder detergent, this should also be placed in
one of the corners of the drip tray. You should refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions when it comes to the amount of
power detergent to use per wash cycle.
o IMPORTANT: We do not recommend that you use liquid
detergent in this appliance.
o IMPORTANT: If you are using “3 in 1” detergent tablets and
not also using separate dishwasher salt and rinse aid, then the
salt required icon (J) and rinse aid required icon (K) will remain
lit.
o IMPORTANT: If you are using “3 in 1” detergent tablets and
not also using separate dishwasher salt and rinse aid, after
selecting your wash program you must press the “3 in 1” key
(E). The “3 in 1” icon (E1) will light on the LED display.
Loading the basket
The basket is designed to wash plates (up to 26 cm in diameter),
bowls, glasses, cups, pots, pans, lids, salad bowls etc. Examples of
appropriate ways to load the basket are shown in the pictures below.
o Loading without saucepans
o Loading without plates
16
Page 17
o Loading with a mixture of
plates and saucepans
o Saucepans and serving bowls must always be placed with their
bases upwards.
o Deep saucepans should be slanted, to allow water to run off.
IMPORTANT: Care should be taken to make sure that the spray
arm can move freely when items have been loaded into the
basket.
The cutlery basket
Cutlery should be placed inside of the cutlery basket. The cutlery
basket should then be placed in the appropriate position in the lower
basket.
1. Teaspoons
2. Dessert spoons
3. Soup spoons
4. Forks
5. Knives
6. Ladle
7. Serving fork
IMPORTANT: Do not allow items of cutlery to fall through
the bottom of the cutlery basket, as this may cause
damage to the spray arm and/or the cutlery. If the bottom
of the basket begins to deteriorate and allows items to fall
through, you should replace the cutlery basket.
17

Loading dishes and cutlery
Household cloths, sponges or any other object that
may absorb water SHOULD NOT be washed in a
dishwasher.
o Remove leftovers and soften the remnants of burnt food in pans,
prior to loading dishes in the appliance.
o Once the dishwasher has been loaded, check that the spray arm
can move freely. If the spray arm comes into contact with any
item, then you should rearrange the wash load.
o Cups, glasses, pans etc should all be loaded with their bases
upwards, so that water does not collect inside of them.
o Cutlery and dishes should not cover each other; otherwise you
may get poor wash results.
o Do not allow glasses to touch inside the dishwasher, otherwise
damage may occur.
o Small objects can be placed inside of the cutlery basket.

Page 28
The filter system
Your appliance is fitted with three levels of filtering; these are located
in the base of the dishwasher for ease of access.
1) Main filter
2) Coarse filter
3) Fine filter
Main filter- Food and soil particles are trapped by this filter and
pulverised by a special jet on the lower spray arm.
This debris is then washed down the drain.
Coarse filter- Larger items such as pieces of bone or glass, which
could clog the drain, are trapped in this filter.
Fine filter- This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump
area and prevents it from being redeposited on the
dishes during a wash cycle.
IMPORTANT: Whilst the filtering system is efficient, your
dishwasher is not a waste disposal unit. All items being
washed inside of the dishwasher should have food scraps
removed from them before being loaded into the appliance.
28
Page 29
Cleaning the filters
For best performance and results, the entire filter assembly should be
thoroughly cleaned regularly (ideally after each wash cycle).
o Remove the basket from the appliance.
o Identify the coarse filter, which is
located in the middle of the main filter.
o Turn the coarse filter anti-clockwise
and then lift it upwards. Rinse out this
section under a tap to remove any food
debris that remains in it.
o Pull out the main filter and rinse this
under the tap to remove any food
debris that is trapped in it.
o Pull out the fine filter and rinse this
under the tap to remove any food
debris that is trapped in it.
o Place the fine filter back in its original position.
o Place the main and coarse filter back into their original positions
in the base of the dishwasher. You must turn the coarse filter
clockwise to lock it back into position.

IMPORTANT: THE DISHWASHER SHOULD NEVER BE
SET ON A WASH CYCLE WITHOUT THE FILTERS BEING
INSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE.
The drip tray
The drip tray is positioned under the basket and it is designed to catch
dirt and food residue that may drop from items when they are placed
in the dishwasher. It is hooked directly onto the door for reasons of
safety and will slide out when the door is opened.
o To remove the drip tray for cleaning, you should firstly remove
the basket from the appliance (as described on pages 26 - 27).
o Grip the sides of the drip tray and raise it slightly, so that it
unclips from the drip tray catch fastener. Then push the drip
tray back inside of the appliance.
o You should slide the upper plate of the drip tray over the lower
plate of the drip tray. Grip the sides of the drip tray and then
remove it from the inside of the dishwasher.
o Clean both plates of the drip tray using hot soapy water and a
damp cloth, then rinse thoroughly and dry.
30
Page 31
o Slide the drip tray back into the dishwasher, with the upper and
lower plates closed together. Making sure that the wheels locate
into their guides at the side of the dishwasher tank.
o Once the wheels have reached their rear limit, you should gently
slide forward the upper plate only and clip this onto the drip tray
catch fastener.
o Refit the basket.
IMPORTANT: The drip tray MUST be in position before loading
the basket and setting the appliance on a wash program. The
dishwasher MUST NOT BE USED without the drip tray being in
position.
Cleaning the spray arm
The spray arm should be cleaned regularly, to prevent hard water
deposits from clogging the spray arm jets and bearings.
o IMPORTANT: Remove the basket before attempting to clean the
spray arm.
o Check that the nozzles of the spray arm are not obstructed by
food residue.
Cleaning the control panel
IMPORTANT: Do not use any abrasive cleaner or household polish on
either the control panel or operating parts.
o Wipe over the control panel using a brand new damp cloth with
warm water.
31
Page 32
Cleaning the door
o To clean the edge around the outside of the door, you should use
a soft, damp cloth only.
o To prevent water from penetrating the door lock or electrical
components, DO NOT use a spray cleaner of any kind.
o DO NOT use any abrasive cleaner or scouring pads on the inner
or outer surfaces, as they may cause damage to them.
Cleaning the door gasket
o Use a damp sponge to clean the door gasket from time to time.
This will prevent the build up of food residues which could cause
unpleasant odours.
Not using the appliance for prolonged periods?
If the dishwasher is not going to be used for a prolonged period of
time, then we would recommend that you do the following:-
o Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
o Run one or two cycles with the dishwasher empty.
o Disconnect the electrical and water connections.
o Leave the door ajar slightly to prevent an unpleasant odour
from developing.
o Clean all of the filters and dry the inside of the machine
thoroughly.
Reconnecting the appliance after a period of disuse
If the appliance has not been used for a prolonged period of time, then
before using the appliance again, we would recommend that you do
