INSTALLATION

(Technical notes)

■ After unpacking, adjust the height of the dishwasher. For the dishwasher to work correctly it must be level. Adjust the feet so that the machine does not tilt by more than 2 degrees.

■ If it you need to move the machine after removing the packaging, do not try to lift it by the bottom of the door. Follow the instructions in the figure below. Open the door slightly and lift the machine by holding on the top.

IMPORTANT When the appliance is located on a carpet floor, attention must be paid to ensure that there is no obstruction to the bottom vents.

Make sure that the plug on the appliance remains accessible after installation.

Electrical connection

This appliance complies with international safety standards, and is fitted with a 3 pin plug with earth connection to ensure complete earthing of the product.

Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply it is important to ensure:

1. that the supply socket is properly earthed;

2. that your electricity supply is capable of meeting the consumption requirements listed on the rating plate of your appliance.

WARNING! Ensure that your product is properly earthed.

In the absence of adequate earthing you will notice that when touching the metal parts of your appliance an electrical dispersion can be felt, due to the presence of a radio interference suppressor.

Manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage due to non-earthing of the machine.

Appliance complies with European Directives 73/23/EEC and 89/336/EEC, replaced by 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC, and subsequent amendments.

Connecting the outlet hose

■ The outlet hose should disharge into a standpipe, making sure that there are no kinks (fig. 4).

■ The standpipe must be at least 40 cm above floor level and it must have an internal diameter of at least 4 cm.

■ It is advisable to fit an anti-odour air trap (fig. 4X).

■ If necessary the outlet hose can be extended up to 2,5 m, provided that it is kept at a maximum height of 85 cm above floor level. The extension pipe is available from the After Sales Service Centre.

■ The hose can be hooked over the side of the sink, but it must not be immersed in water, in order to prevent water from being syphoned back to the machine when this is in operation (fig. 4Y).

■ When installing the appliance under a worktop the hose pipe clamp must be attached to the wall in the highest possible position under the worktop (fig. 4Z).

■ Check that there are no kinks in the inlet and outlet hoses.

Water connection

IMPORTANT The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets. The old hose-sets should not be reused.

■ The inlet and drain hoses can be directed to left or right.

IMPORTANT The dishwasher can be connected to either cold or hot water, as long as it is no hotter than 60 °C.

■ Water pressure must be between 0,08 MPa and 0,8 MPa. If the pressure is below the minimum consult our service department for advice.

■ The inlet hose must be connected to a tap so that the water supply can be cut off when the machine is not in use

(fig. 1 B).

■ The dishwasher is fitted with 3/4" threaded connector (fig. 2).

■ Connect inlet hose “A” to water tap “B” with a 3/4" attachment making sure that it has been properly tightened.

■ If it is necessary, the inlet pipe can be lengthened up to 2,5 m. The extension pipe is available from the After Sales Service Centre.

■ If limescale deposits or sand are present in the water, it is advisable to obtain the appropriate filter, art. 9226085, from the After Sales Service Centre (fig. 3). The filter “D” must be inserted between the tap “B” and the inlet hose “A”, remembering to fit the washer “C”.

■ If the dishwasher is connected to new pipes or to pipes which have not been in use for a long time run water through for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. In this way no deposits of sand or rust will clog up the water inflow filter.

According to the degree of hardness of your water, regulate the softener unit in the following way:

IMPORTANT The dishwasher must be ALWAYS off before start this procedure.

1. When the dishwasher is off, OPEN

the door.

2. Turn the programme selector to the "UNIVERSAL" programme position.

3. Press the "ON/OFF" button.

4. WITHIN 15 seconds, turn the dial (in a

anti-clockwise direction) to the "RESET" position then go to the "UNIVERSAL" programme position again, doing this 4 times (finishing with the programme selector on the "UNIVERSAL" programme position).

5. The indicator light "WASHING" will flash 3 times and the alarm will sound 3 times, to indicate the factory water softener setting (LEVEL 3).

6. Turn the programme selector to one of the inclusive positions among 1 and 6 to choose the required water softener level.

7. The indicator light "WASHING" will flash and the alarm will sound some times, according to the select level (for example, 5 times for the LEVEL 5).

8. Turn off the dishwasher pressing the "ON/OFF" button to confirm the new

setting.

WARNING! If any problem occurs, turn the dishwasher off by pressing the "ON/OFF" button and start the procedure again from the beginning (STEP 1).

WATER SOFTENER UNIT

Depending on the source of the supply, water contains varying amounts of limestone and minerals which are deposited on the dishes leaving whitish stains and marks. The higher the level of these minerals present in the water, the harder the water is. The dishwasher is fitted with a water softener unit which, through the use of special regenerating salt, supplies softened water for washing the dishes. The degree of hardness of your water can be obtained from your water supply company.

Regulating the water softener

The softener unit can treat water with a hardness of up to 90°fH (French grading) or 50°dH (German grading) through 6 different settings.

The table below lists different degrees of water hardness with the corresponding setting for the softener unit.

* The water softener unit is set in the

factory at level 3, as this is suitable for the majority of users.

INSTALLATION IN FITTED KITCHENS

Fitting between existing cabinets

■ The height of the dishwasher, 85 cm, has been designed in order to allow the machine to be fitted between existing cabinets of the same height in modern fitted kitchens. The feet can be adjusted so that correct height is reached.

■ The laminated top of the machine does not require any particular care since it is heatproof, scratchproof and stainproof

(fig. 5).

Opening the door

Put your hand into the recess and pull. If the machine comes open while it is working, an electrical safety device automatically switches everything off.

IMPORTANT For the machine to work properly, the door should not be opened while it is in operation.

Closing the door

Place the baskets in the machine. Make sure that both the spray arms are free to rotate and are not obstructed by cutlery, crockery or pans. Close the door, pressing on it to make sure it is firmly shut.

Underneath existing work top

(when fitting beneath a work top)

■ In most modern fitted kitchens there is only one single work top under which cabinets and electrical appliances are fitted. In this case remove the work top of the dishwasher by unscrewing the screws under the rear edge of the top

(fig. 6a).

IMPORTANT After removing the work top, the screws MUST BE screwed again under the rear edge of the top (fig. 6b).

■ The height will then be reduced to 82 cm, as scheduled by the International Regulations (ISO) and the dishwasher will fit perfectly under the kitchen working top (fig. 7).

ADJUSTMENT OF THE UPPER BASKET

If 27 cm to 31 cm plates are normally used, load them onto the lower basket after the upper basket has been placed in its upper position and proceed as detailed below:

1. Turn the front stops “A” outwards;

2. Take out the basket and remount it in the

upper position;

3. Replace the blocks “A” in their original position.

Dishes that are bigger than 20 cm in diameter can no longer be loaded onto the upper basket and the mobile supports cannot be used when the basket is in the upper position.

LOADING THE SALT

■ On the bottom of the machine there is a container for the salt for regenerating the softener.

■ It is important to use only a salt that is specifically designed for dishwasher. Other types of salt contain small quantities of insoluble particles which over a long period of time may affect and deteriorate the softener performance.

■ To add salt, unscrew the cap of the container on the bottom and then refill the container.

■ During this operation a little water will overflow; but keep adding salt until the container is full. When the container is full, clean the thread of salt residue and retighten the tap.

■ After loading the salt, it is recommended running a complete washing cycle, or COLD RINSE programme. The salt dispenser has a capacity of between 1.5 and 1.8 kg and, for efficient

Salt loading indicator

This model is provided with a blind cap. In this case, the salt level must be checked periodically, according to the regulation of the water softener unit.

IMPORTANT The appearance of white stains on dishes is generally an important sign that the salt container needs filling.

use of the appliance, i t should be refilled from time to time according to the regulation of the water softener unit.

IMPORTANT (Only for first start up) When the appliance is used for the first time, after completely filling the salt container, it is necessary to add water until the container overflows.

LOADING DISHES

Using the upper basket

■ The upper basket is provided with mobile racks hooked to the sides of the basket which can be regulated in two positions: upright and lowered. In the lowered position the racks may be used for tea and coffee cups, kitchen knives and ladles. Glasses with stems may be safely hung on the ends of the racks. Glasses, cups, saucers and dessert plates may be loaded under the racks.

■Soup plates and ordinary plates may be

loaded with the rack in the upright position. Plates should be loaded vertically with the underside of the plate towards the back of the dishwasher with a space between each plate to allow water to pass freely.

■ It is advisable to load plates of the same size together in order to utilize maximum basket capacity.

■ Plates may be loaded in a single row (fig. 1) or on both rows (fig. 2).

■ It is advisable to load large plates (approx. 27 or more cm) slightly tilted towards the rear to facilitate introduction of the basket into the machine.

■ Salad bowls and plastic bowls may also be loaded on the upper basket. It is advisable to block these in place so that the jets of water do not make them overturn.

■ The upper basket has been designed to offer maximum flexibility in use and can be loaded with up to 24 plates on two rows, up to 30 glasses on five rows or a mixed load.

Using the lower basket

■ Saucepans, oven dishes, tureens, salad bowls, lids, serving dishes, dinner plates, soup plates and ladles can be loaded on the lower basket.

■ Place the cutlery in the plastic cutlery holder with the handles pointing upwards.

■ Place the cutlery holder on the lower basket (fig. 3), making sure that the cutlery does not get in the way of the rotating arms.

IMPORTANT The lower basket has a safety-stop device, for its safe extraction, also especially useful with a full load. For loading salt, cleaning filter and for ordinary maintenance, the complete extraction of the basket is necessary.

LOADING THE DETERGENT

The detergent

IMPORTANT It is essential to use a detergent that is specifically designed for dishwashers either in powder, liquid or tablet form.

“FINISH” gives very good results and can be easily obtained.

Unsuitable detergents (like those for washing up by hand) do not contain the proper ingredients for use in a dishwasher, and stop the dishwasher from working correctly.

Filling the detergent container

The detergent container is inside the door (fig. A “2”). If the lid of the container is closed, press the button (A) to open. At the end of every wash cycle the lid is always open and ready for the next time the dishwasher is used.

WARNING! When loading the lower basket, please ensure that the plates or others do not obstruct the detergent dispenser.

The amount of detergent to be used varies according to how dirty the dishes are and on the type of dishes to be washed. We advise using 20÷30 g of detergent in the wash section of detergent compartment (B).

After pouring the detergent into the container, close the lid, firstly pushing (1) and then pressing on it (2) until you hear the click.

Since not all detergents are the same the instructions on the boxes of detergent can vary. We should just like to remind users that too little detergent does not clean the dishes properly whilst too much detergent will not produce better results and is also a waste.

IMPORTANT Do not use an excessive amount of detergent and help limit damage to the environment at the same time.

LOADING THE RINSE AID

The rinse aid

The rinse aid, which is automatically released during the last rinsing cycle, helps the dishes to dry quickly and prevents spots and stains forming.

Filling the rinse aid container

The rinse aid container can be found to the left of the detergent container (fig. A "3"). To open the lid, push the reference mark and, in the same time, pull the tab of opening. It is always advisable to use rinse aid that is specifically designed for dishwasher. Check the rinse aid level through the indicator eye (C) which is located on the dispenser.

Regulating the rinse aid from 1 to 6

The regulator (D) is placed under the lid and can be turned using a coin. The recommended position is 4. The limestone content of the water considerably affects the formation of limescale and the drying performance. It is therefore important to regulate the quantity of rinse aid to achieve good washing results. If, after the wash, streaks occur on the dishes, decrease the amount by one position. If whitish spots occur, increase the amount by one position.

TYPES OF DETERGENT

Detergent tablets

Detergent tablets of different manufacturers dissolve at different speeds, for this reason, during short programmes, some detergent tablets may be not fully effective, because they are not completely dissolved. If these products are used, is recommended to choose longer programmes to guarantee the complete use of the detergent.

IMPORTANT To get satisfactory washing results, the tablets MUST be placed in the wash section of the detergent container and NOT directly in the tub.

Concentrated detergents

The concentrated detergents, with reduced alkalinity and with natural enzymes, in conjunction with 50°C wash programmes, have a smaller impact on the environment and they protect the dishes and the dishwasher. The 50°C wash programmes purposely exploit the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes, allowing therefore, with the use of the concentrated detergents, to achieve the same results of the 65°C programmes but at a lower temperature.

Combined detergents

The detergents that also contain the rinse aid must be placed in the wash section of the detergent container. The rinse aid container must be empty (if it is not empty, set the rinse aid regulator to lowest position before using combined detergents).

"ALL in 1" combined detergents

If you are planning to use “ALL in 1” (“3 in 1 “/ “4 in 1”/ “5 in 1”, etc.) combined detergents i.e. those with built in salt and/or rinse agent, we would advise the following:

■ read carefully and follow the manufacturer ’s instructions given on the packaging;

■ the effectiveness of detergents containing the built in water softener/salt depends on the hardness of your water supply. Check that the hardness of your water supply is within the effective range given on the detergent packaging.

If when using this type of product, you don't get satisfactory washing results, please contact the detergent manufacturer.

In certain circumstances use of combined detergents can cause:

■ limescale deposits on dishes or in the dishwasher;

■ a reduction in washing and drying performance.

IMPORTANT Any problems which arise as a direct result of the use of these products are not covered by our warranty.

Please note that using the "ALL in 1" combined detergents, the rinse aid and salt indicator lights (only used on selected models) are superfluous, so you must ignore the lights.

If washing and/or drying problems occur, we recommend you return to use traditional separate products (salt, detergent and rinse agent). This will ensure that the water softener in the dishwasher operates correctly.

In this case, we recommends that you:

■ refill both the salt and rinse aid container;

■ run one normal washing cycle without a

load.

Please note that on return to the use of conventional salt, a number of cycles will be required before the system becomes fully efficient again.

PRATICAL HINTS

How to get really good wash results

■ Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove any remaining food (bones, shells, pieces of meat or vegetables, coffee grounds, skin of fruit, cigarette ash, tooth picks etc. to avoid blocking the filters, water outlet and washing arm nozzles.

■ Try not to rinse the dishes before loading them into the dishwasher.

■ If saucepans and oven dishes are encrusted with the remains of burnt or roast food, it is advisable to leave them to soak before washing.

■ Place the dishes face downwards.

■ Try to place the dishes in such a way

that they are not touching one another. If they are loaded properly you will get better results.

■ After loading the dishes check that the washing arms can rotate freely.

■ Pans and other dishes that have particularly stubborn food particles or remnants of burnt food should be left to soak in water with dishwasher detergent.

■ To wash silver properly:

a) rinse the silver immediately after

use, especially if it has been used for mayonnaise, eggs, fish etc.;

b) do not sprinkle detergent onto it; c) keep it separate from other metals.

How to make savings

■ If you want the dishwasher to give a complete wash, place the dishes in the dishwasher at the end of each meal and if necessary turn on the COLD RINSE cycle to soften the food remains and remove bigger particles of food from the new load of dishes. When the dishwasher is full start the complete wash cycle programme.

■ If the dishes are not very dirty or if the baskets are not very full select an ECONOMY programme, following the instructions in the program list.

What not to wash

■ It should be remembered that not all dishes are suitable for washing in a dishwasher.We advise against using the dishwasher to wash items in thermoplastic, cutlery with wooden or plastic handles, saucepans with wooden handles, items in aluminium, crystal, leaded glass unless otherwise stated.

■ Certain decorations may fade. It is therefore a good idea before loading the whole batch to wash just one of the items first so as to be sure that others like it will not fade.

■ It is a good idea not to put silver cutlery with non-stainless steel handles into the dishwasher as there could be a chemical reaction between them.

IMPORTANT When buying new crockery or cutlery always make sure that they are suitable for washing in a dishwasher.

Useful hints

■ In order to avoid any dripping from the top rack, remove the lower rack first.

■ If the dishes are to be left in the machine for some time, leave the door ajar, to let some air circulate and to improve the drying performance.

CLEANING THE FILTERS

The filter system (fig.A “4”) consists of:

a central container that traps the larger particles;

a flat gauze that continuously filters the wash water;

a micro filter, located beneath the gauze, that traps the tiniest particles ensuring a perfect rinse.

■ To achieve excellent results every time, the filters should be checked and cleaned after each wash.

■ To remove the filter unit, simply turn the handle anticlockwise (fig. 1).

■ For ease of cleaning, the central container is removable (fig. 2).

■ Remove the gauze filter (fig.3) and wash the whole unit under a jet of water. If necessary a small brush can be used.

■ With the Self-cleaning Micro filter, maintenance is reduced and the filter unit need only be checked every two weeks. Nevertheless, after each wash it is advisable to check that the central container and the gauze filter are not clogged.

WARNING! After cleaning the filters, make sure that they are correctly reassembled and that the gauze filter is properly positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher.

Make sure that the filter is screwed back, clockwise, into the gauze, as poor seating of the filter unit could have an adverse effect on the efficiency of the appliance.

IMPORTANT Never use the dishwasher without the filters.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROL

WHEN CYCLE IS FINISHED

After every wash it is essential to turn off water supply and to switch off the machine by pressing the On/Off button to the off position.

If the machine is not going to be used for some time, it is advisable to follow these rules:

1. do an empty wash with detergent in order to clean the machine of any deposits;

2. pull out the electric plug;

3. turn off the water tap;

4. fill the rinse aid container;

5. Ieave the door ajar;

6. keep the inside of the machine clean;

7. If the machine is left in places where the

temperature is below 0°C any water left inside the pipes may freeze. Wait until the temperature rises above zero and then wait for about 24 hours before starting up the dishwasher.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

■ To clean the dishwasher outside, do not use solvents (degreasing action) neither abrasives, but only a cloth soaked with water.

■ The dishwasher does not require special maintenance, because the tank is self-cleaning.

■ Regularly wipe the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove any food remains or rinse aid.

■ It is advisable to remove limestone deposits or dirt periodically, by doing an empty wash; pour a glass of vinegar on the bottom of the tank and select the light wash.

■ If, in spite of the routine cleaning of the filters, you notice that the dishes or pans are not properly washed or rinsed, check that all the spray heads on the rotor arms (fig. A “5”) are clear.

If they are blocked, clean them in the following way:

1. to remove the upper rotor arm, turn it until it lines up with the stop marked by the arrow (fig. 1). Push it upwards (fig. 1b) and, keeping it pushed in, unscrew it in a clockwise direction

(to reassemble it repeat the same operation, but turn it anticlockwise).

The lower rotor arm can be removed simply by pulling it upwards (fig. 2);

2. wash the rotor arms under a jet of water to clear any blockage in the spray heads;

3. when you have finished, refit the rotor arms in the same position, remembering to re-align the arrow and screw into position.

■ Both the door lining and the tank lining are in stainless steel; however, should spots caused by oxidation occur, this is probably due to a high level of iron salts presents in the water.

■ The spots can be removed with a mild abrasive agent; never use chlorine based materials, steel wool, etc.

Alarm mute for the PROGRAMME END

The alarm for the programme end may be muted as follows:

IMPORTANT The dishwasher must be ALWAYS off before start this procedure.

1. When the dishwasher is off, OPEN the

door.

2. Turn the programme selector to the "RAPID" programme position.

3. Press the "ON/OFF" button.

4. WITHIN around 15 seconds, turn the

dial (in a clockwise direction) to the "RESET" position and then go back to the "RAPID" programme position again, doing this 4 times (finishing with programme selector on the "RAPID" programme position).

5. The indicator light "WASHING" will come on.

6. Turn the programme selector (in a clockwise direction) to the "RESET" position (the indicator light "WASHING" will start to flash to indicate that the alarm has been deactivated).

Setting of new programme

Whenever you want to set a new programme, you MUST turn the programme selector to "RESET" position and wait for the "WASHING" indicator light to go off.

Troubleshooting

While you are setting a programme, the indicator light "WASHING" will start flashing very quickly (and the alarm will sound) if the electronics detect some incorrect programming function. In this event, turn the programme selector to the "RESET" position, wait for the "WASHING" indicator light to go off and turn off the dishwasher pressing the

"ON/OFF" button. After checking to make sure the water inlet hose tap is open, that the drain hose is not bent and that the siphon or filters are not clogged, set the selected programme again.

If the anomaly persists, contact Customer Service Department.

IMPORTANT This dishwasher is equipped with an

anti-overflow safety device which will automatically discharge any excess water should a problem occur.

WARNING! To ensure the correct operation of the anti-overflow safety device, we recommend that the dishwasher is not moved or tilted during operation. If however it is necessary to tilt or move the dishwasher, please ensure that the washing cycle is complete and that there is no remaining water inside the dishwasher.

Option button

"HALF LOAD" button

In response to your everyday washing requirement in addition to the normal wash functions this dishwasher is equipped with the “HALF LOAD” function. This function enables the uses to wash a reduced number of dishes yet retaining the freedom of loading them both on the top and bottom basket. When this function is activated the dishwasher will automatically reduce the water and energy consumption and the wash time. When selecting the “HALF LOAD” ensure a reduced amount of detergent is used.

The option button can be selected or deselected WITHIN 2 minutes of the programme commencing.

Interrupting a programme

Opening the door is not recommended while a programme is running, especially during the main washing phase and final drying. However, the dishwasher will stop automatically when the door is opened. If the door is opened during a programme, the indicator light "WASHING" will start flashing, up to when you re-close the door. At this point, the programme will restart from where it had been interrupted.

turn the programme selector to "RESET" position. After a few seconds the indicator light "WASHING" will go off.

A new wash setting can now be made.

WARNING! Before starting a new programme, you should check that there is still detergent in the dispenser. If necessary, top up the dispenser.
