Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health
deriving from inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered to obtain significant savings
in energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked
with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
Important
• Read the instructions prior to installation and use of the appliance.
• Do not lean or climb on the open dishwasher door to prevent damage.
• Close the dishwasher door after use to prevent accidents.
• Use only detergents, salt and rinse aid specifically designed for dishwashers.
• Do not put solvents in the dishwasher detergent compartment to prevent risk of explosion
• Only put dishwasher safe items into the dishwasher. If in doubt, check with the manufacturer of the items.
• Take care when loading the dishwasher to observe the recommendations for best loading practice, and also to ensure
that sharp objects such as knives are placed blade down to prevent accidents.
• Do not open the dishwasher door when a programme is running. If it is necessary to do so, then open it
only slightly to allow the dishwasher to pause the programme and prevent any water spilling out. Remember that the
water in the dishwasher can be very hot when the programme is running.
• When the dishwasher is not in use, we reccomend that you turn off the water supply at the supply tap and disconnect
the main supply.
• If you are leaving the dishwasher for an extended period you should leave the door slightly open to prevent the
formation of unpleasant smells.

the rinse aid setting to the appropriate level.
Salt
To ensure the best efficiency, the dishwasher needs soft water. Hard water
means that lime residues remain on the dishes and the interior of the
dishwasher, affecting performance. The softener system is designed to
remove the ions that make the water hard to provide the best quality wash
performance. This is achieved by using dishwasher salt.
To add dishwasher salt, follow the steps below:
1. Remove the lower dishwasher basket and then unscrew the salt
compartment cap, as shown in figure 2.
2. Fill the compartment with dishwasher salt (do not use table salt), carefully
to prevent unnecessary spillage. Before first use, you should fill the
compartment with 2kg of dishwasher salt and then fill up the salt
compartment with water (up to the brim of the compartment) as shown
in figure 3.
3. Replace the cap and the lower basket.
Whenthesaltwarninglightonthecontrolpanelilluminates,youshould
refill the salt compartment with salt only – do not add water to the salt
compartment after the first use.
You should run a programme immediately after adding dishwasher
salt, to prevent any damage to the dishwasher systems.

Softener adjustment
The efficiency of your dishwasher depends on the softness of the tap water. To ensure best efficiency, the dishwasher
is equipped with a system that reduces the hardness in the mains water supply. The efficiency will increase when the
system is correctly set. To find out the water hardness level of your water supply you can use the test strip supplied or
alternatively contact your local water board.
1. Open the testing strip.
2. Run water through the tap for one minute.
3. Hold the testing strip in water for one second.
4. Shake the testing strip after taking it out of the water
5. Wait for one minute
6. Check the number of marks on the strip to see the level of water hardness.
If the hardness of the water you use is above 60 dE or if you are using well water; you are recommended to use lter and
water refinement devices.
Please note: The level of water hardness is preset to level 3.
1. Press and hold down the programme selection button
2. Press the power button to switch on the dishwasher
3. Keep the programme selection button pressed until the five programme indicator lights and the end of programme
indicator light flash.
4. To adjust the level, press the programme selection button until the required level is selected. The programme lights
will illuminate as in the table of water hardness settings.
5. To store the selected water hardness level, press the power button.

CDA Dishwasher – Oversized Fascia Door Mounting Information
Scope of Document:
Where non-standard integrated appliance doors are supplied, additional fitting instructions are required
to ensure compatibility with this product.
Instructions:
The machine is supplied with a fitting template and these instructions should be followed as normal.
However, the fitting template needs to be located lower down the fascia door; this is shown below: -
Offset Y
The amount of offset, Y, depends on the height of the fascia door and can be calculated as: -
Fitting Template
Door Height
X
WC140: X-723mm
WC350, WC360: X-725mm
For example, if you have a 731mm tall fascia door and are fitting a door to a WC140,
then Y = 731 – 723 = 8mm
