Installation dimensions

By removing the appliance’s worktop you can
build in your appliance under an existing
worktop provided that the space conforms to
the dimensions on the sketch. (Fig. 01)

•

Building in your appliance under

a worktop

If you are building in your appliance under an
existing worktop:
— Remove the top of the appliance by unscre­wing the two screws under the edge of the
top (Fig. 02).
— Remove the top by unclipping it from the
back of the appliance and pushing it a few cm
to move it (Fig. 03).
— Lift the top of your dishwasher to release it
(Fig. 03).
— Insert the dishwasher into its appropriate
space
— Adjust the height of the feet, if necessary
(please refer to the Section: “Levelling by
adjusting the feet”).
— Fasten your dishwasher to the kitchen work­top with two screws under the front of the
plastic lip (Fig 04).

If your worktop is marble or a similar material,
you can fasten your dishwasher at the side
with two brackets (available from After-Sales
or your dealer).

2 / INSTALLING YOUR DISHWASHER

Danger :

If your worktop has a hob fitted above your dishwasher, you must fit thermal insulation
on top of your dishwasher. You can obtain an insulation panel from your dealer. Remember to
leave a space between the gas pipe and the top of your dishwasher.

• LEVELLING BY ADJUSTING THE FEET

• INSTALLING THE SOUND-PROOFING FLAP

Ensure that your dishwasher is quite plumb
and stable and that it i9n the place where it
will be installed. The feet are adjustable. Use a
screwdriver to adjust them, if necessary, so
that the door closes and seals perfectly
(Fig.06).
Ensure that the dishwasher’s door closes cor­rectly, without catching at the sides.

To improve the appliance’s sound-proofing,
fit the flap supplied with your dishwasher
(depending on the model):

① - Tilt your dishwasher backwards slightly

so that you can clip the sound-proofing flap to
the base of the plinth and ensure it is well clip­ped at three points (the ends and the centre),

② - Adjust the flap’s height by cutting off one

or more strips manually after scoring the end
with a pair of scissors.
The flap must be in contact with the floor.
(Fig. 07).

Danger :

The symbol indicates that the hose
is fitted with an electrical device for cutting
off the water supply (depending on the
model). Do not leave this hose in water and
do not cut it.

NB:

Any connection to a water conduit
necessarily involves the risk of a leak occur­ring, whatever the precautions taken.
Therefore, always close the water tap when
you are not using your machine.

This dishwasher can be supplied with cold
water or hot water up to a maximum of 60°C.
When supplying with hot water, check that
your original hose allows such connection
(red marking on the hose). However, we
recommend that you connect to the cold
water supply. Your appliance is fitted with a
supply hose 1.50m long.

Connect the hose to a tap with a threaded
end, diameter 20/27 (3/4" BSP).
Check that the water pressure does not
exceed the values below:

Flow: 10 l/min minimum.

Pressure: 1 to 10 bars (0.1 - 1 MPa) (Fig. 08)

If the water pressure is too high, please fit a
pressure regulator. Your Water department
will advise you of the water pressure in your
region.

Warning :

If you use a self-piercing tap, check
that there is sufficient water flow.
Check that the hose seal is present and that
the connection is tight. (Fig. 05)
Do not re-use any previously used hoses for
making the connection.

Avoid any kinks or constrictions in the hose,
which could prevent the water from passing or
slow down its flow, particularly when building
in the appliance under the worktop. (Fig. 9).
If the appliance is connected to new pipes or
pipes that have not been used for a certain
length of time, let the water run for a few minu­tes before connecting the water hose to avoid
and deposits of sand or rust that could block
the water hose’s filter.

Cold water connection is recommended.

• DRAINING AWAY THE WASTE WATER

Fig. 11

Fig. 12

You can connect the end of the drain hose to:

- A ventilated U-bend (Fig. 10) or

- A sink U-bend (Fig. 10) or

- The edge of the sink, using the special plastic
hook provided (depending on the model) (Fig. 12).

When connecting to a U-bend, you must remove
the flapper from the U-bend. Then fully install the
rubber end. If necessary, add a tightening collar
(Fig. 11).

NB :

Ensure that the drain hose is held in

place with a tie to avoid any potential flooding.

The drain connection must be 0.28m (minimum)
to 1m (maximum) above the floor (Fig. 10).

The drain hose’s standard length is 1.50m. If
necessary, you can increase the hose’s length
(up to 3m maximum). In this case, check that the
appliance drains correctly. The hose must rest
on the floor and only rise vertically close to the
drainage system.

For appliances installed in vertical units, the
drainage system must not rise higher than the
top of the appliance.

Important :

When fitting the hose, pull on it gradually
so as not to kink it. (Fig. 9)
Avoid any kinks or constrictions in the hose,
which could prevent the water from passing or
slow down its flow.

3/ INFORMATION

Important:

To obtain impeccable washing and
drying results from your dishwasher without
any marks, you must set it carefully using the
water softening system, which utilises rege­nerating salt (rock salt).

- Use the most suitable washing products for
the hardness of your town’s water supply.

- There are several types of products:

As rainwater infiltrates into the ground it picks
up mineral salts; some minerals are found in
solid form and are commonly called ‘lime’.
This reduces the detergent’s washing perfor­mance and leaves white marks on the
crockery.
The more lime there is in the water, the ‘harder’
the water is.

For an impeccable clean, opt for
using traditional products together:

①①

Washing product

for a perfect clean

(standard powder, liquid or tablets).

②②

Regenerating salt (rock salt)

for
your dishwasher’s water softener to work
correctly.

③③

Rinsing liquid

to assist drying and eli-

minate drip marks.

Important:

Never use normal washing-up liquid.

For ease of use and in certain water
hardness conditions only (< 25°F),
multi-purpose products

can make the
use of regenerating salt and rinsing liquid
unnecessary.

• “Two-in-one” tablets

contain deter­gents and rinsing liquid or an agent serving
the function of the salt.

• “Three-in-one” tablets

contain
detergents and rinsing liquid as well as an
agent serving the function of the salt.

• “Four-in-one” tablets

also contain
additives that prevent wear on poor quality
glasses or the risk of stainless items corro­ding.

Important:

Follow the instructions in the user’s
manual and the recommendations on the
multi-purpose detergent’s pack.

NB:

If in any doubt, please contact the
detergent’s manufacturer if the items are
very wet at the end of the programme or if
chalky deposits appear.

4/ WHAT TO DO BEFORE FIRST USING THE MACHINE

In one simple action, you can test the your water’s lime content using the testing strip supplied with
your dishwasher. Alternatively, contact your local water utility to ascertain your water’s hardness.

— Let the water run from the tap for a few moments.
— Fill a glass with water.
— Take the test strip from its holder and immerse it for 3 seconds.
— Wait 1 minute, shake it and look at the colours to ascertain your water’s hardness.

5/ DETERGENT PRODUCTS AND ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENER

Important:

It is very important to set the water softener correctly.

- If the setting is too low, there is the risk of chalky marks appearing.

- if the setting is too high, there is the risk of causing clouding of the glasses.

If you relocate, adjust the water softener setting as required.

• Standard washing tablets

Non-multipurpose tablets should be placed in the external compartment (Fig 04) or, for optimum
performance, pull out the dispenser drawer and lay the tablet inside (Fig 05).

• Powders or liquids (Fig 13)

Fill at least up to the minimum mark for slightly dirty crockery and to the maximum mark for dirty
crockery. If the crockery is very dirty and for programmes with a pre-wash we recommend that you
add 5g of detergent (a dessert spoonful) into your dishwasher’s tub in accordance with the pro­grammes table.

Important:

Keep these products out of children’s reach and away from dampness.

Only use products specially designed for dishwashers.

6/ LOADING OF REGENERATING SALT

• Loading of regenerating salt (Fig 06)

Filling with salt is essential for providing a
good wash without marks. It regenerates the
resins that soften the water, by removing its
lime content (unless the mains water supply is
soft enough). Refer to “Setting the water sof­tener”.

Important :

Only use special dishwasher regener­ating salt. Do not use table salt or any type of
cooking salt, this could damage your appli­ance’s water softener.

Unscrew and remove the stopper on the

salt tank.

Fill the tank with regenerating salt special-

ly designed for dishwashers.

Use the funnel supplied with your dish­washer. The first time, top up with water up to
the rim of the tank.

•

Regenerating salt indicator:

This illuminates when salt must be added.
After the tank has been filled with regenerat­ing salt, the indicator light may remain lit until
the salt has dissolved sufficiently, usually
after one cycle (of if the tank has not been
filled completely; for example, when first put­ting the machine into service using the sam­ple).
This can be deactivated as indicated in the
paragraph “For multi-purpose products” set­ting table.

Important

If the salt overflows when filling the tank,
to avoid oxidization of the tub it is advisable to
remove the salt crystals or to run a Prewash
programme (or Rapid programme ­depending on the model).

7/ LOADING OF RINSING PRODUCT

Important :

Only use a rinsing product designed for
dishwashers. The rinsing product ensures
your items shine and are well dried.

When first putting the machine into

service, fill the tank until the level is flush with
the top of the adjustment lever. Pour in at least
all the rinsing product provided.
The tank contains 120 ml (approximately one
glass)

The original setting is in the centre (middle
position: reference mark 2). If you encounter
marks or poor drying after a few cycles, you
can adjust the setting using the adjustment
lever

(fig 07

;

Reference mark 3 will

increase the setting).

- Close the tank lightly

••

Rinsing liquid indicator light:

This illuminates when rinsing product is
required.
It can be deactivated as shown in the para­graph “For multi-purpose products” setting
table.

Important :

If any of the product overflows during
filling, sponge up the excess to avoid pro­ducing foam.

8/ YOUR DISHWASHER’S EQUIPMENT

Arrange your items so that the water can cir­culate freely and spray over all the utensils.
Place large diameter dishes and pans at the
sides.
Do not intersperse, jam together or superim­pose flat plates and concave dishes (Fig. 08).
The flexible racking spikes makes it easier to
arrange your large dishes (Fig. 09).

Advice:

When you re-insert the lower basket,
ensure that nothing catches on the oversize
plate barrier to avoid blocking the rotating
spray arm.

Unloading your items

Empty the lower basket to avoid drips from
the upper basket falling onto the lower basket.

• THE LOWER BASKET

Very important

Items not suitable for washing in a dishwasher:

- Wooden cutting boards

- Stainless steel utensils or plastic utensils that are not heat-resistant

- Copper or pewter items

- Glued crockery and cutlery

- Cutlery with wooden, horn or mother-of-pearl handles

- Antique or hand-painted porcelain
When purchasing crockery, glasses or cutlery, ensure that it is dishwasher-safe

8/ YOUR DISHWASHER’S EQUIPMENT

Fig. 11

• THE UPPER BASKET

This basket is particularly designed to take
glasses, cups, ramekins, small salad bowls,
bowls and saucers.
Arrange your items methodically to save on
space (arranging glasses, cups or bowls
together).
You can also arrange cups, ladles, etc. on the
folding cup racks (Fig. 10)

Advice:

Position the cavities of glasses, cups

or bowls facing downwards.

• Adjusting the height of the upper
basket

For large dishes to be loaded in the lower
basket, the upper basket must be set the to
high position. This can be done with the bas­ket fully loaded (Fig. 11)

①①

Setting in HIGH POSITION:

Gently raise your basket on each side until it
engages.

②②

Setting in LOW POSITION:

Raise your basket completely on both sides to
unlock it and then lower it to the low position.

Important :

Check that the two slides are set to the

same height and the basket is horizontal.

8/ YOUR DISHWASHER’S EQUIPMENT

Movable grills are available for if you wish to
load your cutlery in an orderly manner

(Fig.

13).
For optimum washing and drying, use these
separation grills partially or totally.

Point the handles on the cutlery downwards.

Important :

For safety reasons, we recommend
that you place knives with pointed ends with
the point facing downwards in the cutlery
basket (to avoid the risk of an accident).
Long-bladed knives and other sharp kitchen
utensils must be placed flat in the upper bas­ket.

Avoid washing cutlery with horn handles in
your dishwasher.
Separate silverware from other metals using
the separation grill.

• THE CUTLERY BASKET

Fig. 13

The cutlery basket slides to allow flexible
loading.

It can be placed anywhere in the lower basket.
You can therefore make a variety of loads
depending on the items (Fig. 12).

If your cutlery items or your dishes are too
large, alter the height setting for the upper
basket.
