Detergent
To ll the detergent compartment
1. Push the latch to open the compartment.
2. Add the required amount of detergent. The main detergent
compartment “b” (figure 2) has lines to allow for specific amounts
of detergent. These are marked at either 15 cm
3
or 25 cm3, to be
used depending on how dirty the dishes are.
If your dishes are in need of an intensive wash, then add 5 cm
3
of detergent into the prewash section of the compartment “a”
(figure 1).
3. Then close the detergent compartment lid until the latch locks.
Please note: You should only use detergents designed
specically for use in dishwashers.
If using dishwasher tablets, always use the detergent compartment,
do not put them in the main body of the dishwasher or in the cutlery
basket. The solubility of dishwasher tablets can vary depending
on the temperature and duration of the programme. As a result, it
is recommended that powder detergents should be used in the
shorter programmes to allow better performance.
CDA recommends the use of separate detergent, rinse aid and
dishwasher salt rather than combination tablets as separates
achieve better wash performance.
If you do use combination detergents, add salt and rinse aid to the
dishwasher and then adjust the water hardness setting and rinse
aid setting to the minimum. When you then use separate detergents
again, you should fill the salt and rinse aid compartments, adjust the
water hardness setting to the maximum and run an empty wash,
then adjust the water hardness setting and the rinse aid setting to
the appropriate level.
If you use both tablets and separates at dierent times, ensure
you use the three in one function when running a programme with
tablets for best wash performance.
Fig. 2

Salt
To ensure the best eciency, the dishwasher needs soft water. Hard
water means that lime residues remain on the dishes and the interior
of the dishwasher, aecting 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 3.
2. Fill the compartment with dishwasher salt (do not use table salt),
carefully to prevent unnecessary spillage (figure 4). 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 4.
3. Replace the cap and the lower basket.
When the salt warning light on the control panel illuminates, you
should refill the salt compartment with salt only – do not add water
to the salt compartment after the first use.
Important:
You should run a prewash programme immediately after adding
dishwasher salt to prevent any damage to the dishwasher system.

Softener Adjustment
The eciency of your dishwasher depends on the softness of the tap water. To ensure best eciency, the dishwasher
is equipped with a system that reduces the hardness in the mains water supply. The eciency 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 (figure 5).
2. Run water through the tap for one minute.
3. Hold the testing strip in water for one second.
4. Remove from the water and shake the test strip to remove excess 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 63 dE or if you are using well water; you are recommended to contact your
local water board to confirm the water hardness level and to use filter 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 “SL” shows on the display and then disappears
4. To adjust the level, press the programme selection button until the required level is shown on the display, as listed in
the Table of Water Hardness below.
5. To store the selected water hardness level, press the power button.

Rinse Aid
To ll the rinse aid compartment
1. Open the rinse aid compartment by turning and removing the
cap as shown in figure 6.
2. Fill the rinse aid compartment until the rinse aid indicator goes
dark, as shown in figure 7 (where a indicates the compartment is
empty, and “b” indicates the compartment is full).
3. Replace the cap, ensuring the markers on the cap line up with
the compartment prior to screwing the cap back in place.
Rinse Aid Adjustment
The level of rinse aid use is preset to 3. You can adjust the level of
rinse aid use by adjusting as shown in figure 8.
If water stains form on the dishes after a wash, the level should be
increased.
If blue stains which can be wiped away are left on the dishes after a
wash, the level should be decreased.
Please note: Rinse aid ensures better quality wash results and
increased drying performance.
Always rell the rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light on the
control panel is illuminated.

Electrical information
Warning! This appliance must be earthed.
The mains lead of this appliance has been fitted with a BS 1363A 13 amp fused plug. To change a fuse in this type of
plug,
follow the steps below:
1. Remove the fuse cover and fuse.
2. Fit replacement 13A fuse, ASTA approved to BS 1362 type, into the fuse cover.
3. Replace fuse cover.
Important: Do not use the appliance without the fuse cover in position.
How to connect an alternative plug
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlet, then it should be cut o and disposed of safely to avoid the risk of
electric shock. A suitable alternative plug of at least 13 Amp rating to BS 1363 should be used.
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the
coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:-
• The wire which is coloured GREEN and YELLOW must be connected to the terminal which is marked with letter (E) or
by the Earth symbol
or coloured GREEN and YELLOW.
• The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter (N), or
coloured BLACK or BLUE.
• The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter (L) or
coloured RED or BROWN.
If in doubt regarding the electrical connection of this appliance, consult a qualified electrician. Do not shorten the
supply cable, the appliance may require removing for servicing.
N.B. Ensure that the plug socket is situated in an easily accessible place.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must replaced by a CDA authorised agent.

Installation
• Do not install this appliance if it is damaged in any way. Installing
a damaged appliance may invalidate the warranty.
• The water supply tap should be located in an adjacent cupboard
so that it can be accessed after installation.
• Ensure the appliance is level by adjusting the feet as necessary.
The dishwasher is equipped with an adjustable rear foot that can
be raised or lowered by means of an adjustment screw, located
in the centre of the kick plate.
• Only use the water inlet supplied with the appliance.
• If the water pressure is above 10 bar, a pressure relief valve
should be used.
• After connecting the water supply, check to ensure there are no
leaks.
• The water outlet can either be connected to a water drain or
to a sink outlet spigot. This connection should be at a minimum
of 50 cm and a maximum of 110 cm from the floor. The drain
hose should be no longer than 4m in length to ensure good
performance from the dishwasher.
• To prevent siphoning, ensure that the water outlet is not pushed
too far into the waste standpipe. The lowest part of the water
outlet should be level with the bottom basket of the dishwasher.
• When connecting to the sink, ensure that the waste pipe runs
higher than the level of the sink bowl to prevent siphoning.
• This appliance is cold fill only.

Fitting the integrated appliance door
Where non-standard integrated appliance doors are supplied,
additional fitting instructions are required to ensure compatibility
with this product.
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.
The amount of oset, Y, depends on the height of the fascia door
and can be calculated as X = 723mm.
For example, if you have a 731mm tall fascia door and are fitting a
door to your dishwasher, then Y = 731-723 = 8mm.
Ensure that the hinge tensioners are adjusted to balance the weight
of the door.
