Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out
of reach of children.

To remove hard water spots, try the following:

Run dishes throu

g

h a norm al wash program.

R em ov e all m etal dish wa re, s uc h as cu tler

y, p

ans, etc.,

from the dishwasher.

Do not a dd d eter gent .

P ou r two c u

p

s of vi negar into a bowl and set the bowl face

up on the lower rack of the dishwasher.
Run the dishes through a normal wash program.
If this doesn't work, try the same process with 1 / 4 cup of
citric acid crystals instead of vinegar.

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers.
Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powder detergent
into the dispenser until You're ready to wash dishes.

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water
fr om formin g droplet s on yo ur dishes th at c an le ave s pots a nd
streaks. It also im

p

roves drying by allowing wa te r to "sheet" o ff

the dishes.

Your dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The
rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the
detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and
pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator
turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid container is
about 140ml.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could
cause oversudsingG. Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth.
Don't forget to replace the cap before you close the dishwasher
door.
If you have soft water, you may not need rinse aid for it may
cause a white film to develop on your dishes.

You should not use too much detergent to prevent the formation of deposits.

The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the" Wash Cycle
Table".Your dishwashers than conventional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of
deter

g

ent is needed for a normal wash load. Also, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the det ergent just

before starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

use less detergent and rinse aid

To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left)
arrow and lift it out.
Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to
overfill.
Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow
and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

A measured amount of rinse aid is released during the fi nal rin se . As wi th de tergent, t he am ou nt
of rinse aid needed for your dishes depends on the hardness of the water in your area. Too much
rinse aid can result in lather of foaming and cause cloudiness or steaks on your dishes. If the
water in

y

our area is very soft, you may not need ri nse aid . If you do,you c an di lute th e rin se ai d
with an equal amount of water.
The rinse aid dispenser has six settings. Always start with the dispen se r set o n " 1 " . If spots a nd
poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser
lid and rotat in

g

the dial to "2 ". If t he dishes s till ar e not d rying properly or a re spotted, adjust the

dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free. We sugg est you t o se t on "4" .

It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the
top spray arm.

Pots, serving bowls, etc, must always be placed top down.
Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to flow out.

The bottom rack feature fold down tine rows so that larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the
spray arm jets and bearings. To remove the spray arm, screw off the nut to t ake out t he
washer on top of the spray arm an d remo ve the arm. Wash the arms i n soapy a nd war m
water and use a soft brush to clean the

j

ets. Replace them after rinsing them t horo ughly.

Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel for it could damage the door lock and electrical components. It is not allowed
to use the abrasive agent or some paper towel becauseof the risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.

To c le an the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp rag. To prevent

p

enetration of water into the door lock and electrical components , do no t us e a spray cl ea ner
of a ny kind.
Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they will
scratch the finish. Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

After every wash, turn off the water supply to the
appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that
moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always
remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.

To c le an the exte rior an d ru bber parts of the dishwasher,
do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products.
Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water.
To r emov e spots o r sta in s fro m the s urfa ce of t he
in te rior, use a clo th dampen ed w ith wat er and a l it tl e
white vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically
for dishwashers.

When you go on holi day, it is recommened that you run a
wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove
the

plug

from the socket, turn off the water supply and

le ave the d oor of the a

pp

liance slightly ajar. This will help
the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming
within the appliance.

If the appliance must be moved, try to k eep it in the vertic al
position.If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on
its back.

One of the factors that cause odors to form in the
dishwasher is food that remains tra

pp

ed in the seals.

Periodic cleanin

g

with a damp sponge will prevent this

from occurring.

This dishwasher is designed for operation on an adequately wired individual 220~240VAC,50~60HZ. Use required fus e 10 a mp.
Fused electrical supply is required-copper wire only. Time delay fuse or circuit breaker recommended and provide separate
circuit serving only this appliance. Outlet should be placed in adjacent cabinet.

After making sure that the voltage and the frequency values for the current in the home
correspond to those on the rating plate and that the electrical system is sized for the
maxi mu m volt age on th e ratin g plate , insert th e plug in to an e l ectrical socket which is
earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not
appr opriate fo r the , rep lace th e so cke t, rather th an us in g a adaptors or the like as
they c ould caus e overhea ti ng and bu rns.

If the sink is 1000mm higher from the floor, the excesswater in Unicouple hoses
cannot be drained directly into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess
water from hoses into a bowl or suitable container that is heldoutside and lower
than the sink.

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4(inch) connector and make sure that it is
fastened tightly in place.
If the w ater

run to mak e sure that the water is cle ar and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken,
ther e is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damag e the appliance.

The water supply to t he appliance can also be connected to the house hot water line
