Delay timer

The Delay timer allows the user to select the start time by 3, 6 or 9 hours to most efficiently take advantage of convenient times and
energy saving windows.

The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness table below.
The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, which would h ave
a detrimental or advers e effect on the ope ration of the app liance.
The higher the content of the se miner als and salts, the har der your water is.
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local W ater Authority
can advise you on the hard ness of the water in your area.

AdjustingS altConsumption

The dishwasher is designed to allow

for adjustment in the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness

of the water used. This is intended to optimise and customise the level of salt consumption.

What is a water softener for?

The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will
form on the dishes and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt container specifically designed to
eliminate lime and minerals from the water.

The factory setting is: H4 (EN 50242)

Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.

The rinse aid dispenser

The ri nse a id is released during the final rinse to prevent water fro m f ormin g dr op lets on your dishes, wh ich can
leave spots and streaks. It a lso improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher i s
designed to use liquid ri nse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the det er ge nt dispenser.
To fill the dispenser, open the cap and po ur the rinse aid into the disp enser until the level in di cat or turns c omplet el y
black. The vol ume of the rinse aid container is about 110ml.

The function of rinse aid

Rinse aid is automatically added to the wash during the last rinse, ensuring thorou gh rinsing , and spot and streak free drying.

Amount of detergent to use

Concentrated detergent

Based on their chemical com position, deterg en t s can be split in two basic types:

Detergent tablets

Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some
detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short
programmes. Therefore please use long programmes when using detergent tablets, to
ensure the complete remov a l of det erg e n t res i du al s.

Detergent dispenser

The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cy cle f ollowi ng the inst ructions
provided in the wash cycle table . Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than
Conventi onal d i sh w as h er. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for
a normal wash load. Mor e heavily s oiled items need more det erg ent . Always add the
detergent just b efore starting the d ishwasher, otherwise it could get da mp a nd will not

Normally new powder detergent is produced without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of
phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when the

hardness of water is only 6 °dH. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard water
often white spot s app ear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more d eter gent to reach
better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not be
removed completely. In this case

please choose a programme with a higher temperature.

Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool d own arou nd 15 mi nutes
before removing from the appliance.
Open the dishwasher's door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes. This way they
will be cooler and the drying will be improved.

Unloading the dishwasher

It is normal that the dishwasher is wet inside.
Empty the lower basket first followed by the upper one. This will help to avoid water dripping from the upper
basket onto the dishes in the lower basket.

Ifyou open the door

, the machine will pause. The programme light will
stop flashing and the buzzer will sound every minute unless you close the door .
After you close the door, the machine will continue to wash after 10 seconds.

detergent " ).
Open the door, press the programme button for more than 3 seconds , the machine will go to standby
state, then you can change the programme to the desired cycle setting (see the section entitled " Starting

within the appliance.

If the appliance must be moved,try to keepit in t he
vertical position.If absolutelynecessary,it can be
positioned on its back.

appropriate for the plug, replace the socket, rather than using a adaptor or the like
as they could cause overheating and burns.

Please look at the rating label to confirm the rating voltage and connect the dishwasher to the appropriate power
supply. Use the required fuse 10 amp, time delay fuse or circuit breaker recommended and provide separate circuit
serving only this appliance.
