Dishwasher Safety Precautions

Care and Cleaning

Before the appliance is used, it must be properly positioned and installed as described in this manual, so read the manual carefully. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or injury when using the appliance, follow basic precaution, including the following:

DANGER

Grounding Instructions

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a

malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of an electric shock by providing a path of least resistance of electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipmentgrounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding

conductor can result in the risk of an electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or service

representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance; If it does not fit the outlet. Have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

WARNING

Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish

rack of the dishwasher.

Do not touch the heating element during or

immediately after use. (This instruction is only applicable to machines with a visual heating element.)

Do not operate your dishwasher unless all

enclosure panels are properly in place. Open the door very carefully if the dishwasher is operating, there is a risk of water squirting out.

Do not place any heavy objects on or stand on the

door when it is open. The appliance could tip forward.

When loading items to be washed:

1. Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal;

2. Warning: Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their points down or placed in a horizontal position.

Check that the detergent compartment is empty

after completion of the wash cycle.

WARNING

When using your dishwasher, you should prevent

plastic items from coming into contact with the heating element (This instruction is only applicable to machines with a visual heating element).

Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked

dishwasher safe or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer's recommendations.

Use only detergent and rinse additives designed for

an automatic dishwasher. Never use soap, laundry detergent, or hand

washing detergent in your dishwasher. Keep these products out of the reach of children.

Keep children away from detergent and rinse aid,

keep children away from the open door of the dishwasher, there could still be some detergent left inside.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons

(including children )with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they

do not play with the appliance. The dishwasher must always be connected to the

water system using new hose sets. Dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline, they

can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with skin and eyes and keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open.

The door should not be left open, since this could

increase the risk of tripping. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced

by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard.

Remove the door to the washing compartment

when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

Please dispose of packing materials properly.

Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.

During installation, the power supply must not be

excessively or dangerously bent or flattened. Do not tamper with controls.

The appliance is to be connected to the water

mains using new hose sets and that old hose-sets should not be reused.

The maximum number of place settings to be

washed is 14. The maximum permissible inlet water pressure is

1Mpa. The minimum permissible inlet water pressure is

0.04Mpa.

Caring for the Dishwasher

The control panel can be cleaned by using a lightly dampened cloth. After cleaning, make sure to dry it thoroughly.

For the exterior, use a good appliance polish wax.

Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

Cleaning the Door

To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp cloth.

To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.

WARNING!

Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel

as it may damage the door lock and electrical components.

Abrasive agents or some paper towels should not

be used because of the risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.

Protect against Freezing

Please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter. After washing cycles, please operate as follows:

1. Turn off the electrical power to the dishwasher.

2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.

3. Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)

4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.

5. Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up water in the sump.

NOTE: If your dishwasher cannot work because of the ice, please contact an authorised service person.

Cleaning the Spray Arms

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings.

To remove the upper spray arm, hold the nut and rotate the arm clockwise to remove it.

To remove the lower spray arm, pull out the spray arm upward.

Wash the arms in soapy and warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing them thoroughly.

How to keep your Dishwasher in shape

After every wash, turn off the water supply to the

appliance and leave the door slightly open so that moisture and odours are not trapped inside.

Before cleaning or performing maintenance,

always remove the electrical plug from the socket.

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the

dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water.

To remove spots or stains from the surface of the

interior, use a cloth dampened with water an a little vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

When not in Use for a long time

It is recommend that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly open. This will help the door seals to last longer and prevent odours from forming within the appliance.

Moving the Appliance

If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

Seals

One of the factors that cause odours to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.

Installation Safety PrecautionsCare and Cleaning

Filtering System

The filter prevents larger remnants of food or other objects from getting inside the pump.

The residue may block the filter, in this case they must be removed.

The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a flat (Main filter) and a microfilter (Fine filter).

MAIN FILTER: Food and soil particles trapped

in this filter are pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down the drain.

COARSE FILTER: Larger items, such as

pieces of bones or glass, that could clog the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To remove an item caught in this filter, gently squeeze the taps on the top of this filter and lift it out.

FINE FILTER: This filter holds soil and food

residues in the sump area and prevents it from being redeposit on the dishes during a cycle.

Filter Assembly

The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recycled during the cycle.

For best performance and results, the filter must be cleaned regularly. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the semicircular filter and cup under running water.

To remove the filter device, pull the cup handle in the upward direction.

WARNING!

The dishwasher must never be used without the

filters.

Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the

performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.

STEP 1: Turn the filter in anti-clockwise direction.

Open

STEP 2: Lift the filter assembly up.

NOTES:

When following this procedure from step 1 to step

2, the filter system will be removed; when following it from Step 2 to Step 1, the filter system will be installed.

Inspect the filters for blocking after every time the

dishwasher has been used.

By unscrewing the coarse filter, you can remove the

filter system. Remove any food remnants and clean the filters under running water.

The entire filter assembly should be cleaned once a

week.

Cleaning the Filter

To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figures on the last page and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning it in its seat and pressing downwards.

WARNING!

When cleaning the filters, do not knock on them.

Otherwise, the filters could be contorted and the performance of the dishwasher could be decreased.

Electrical Connection

This appliance should be properly grounded for

your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug which mates with standard three prong wall outlets to minimise the possibility of electrical shock.

DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES CUT

OR REMOVE THE EARTHING CONNECTION FROM THE POWER CORD SUPPLIED. FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED.

Please look at the rating label to know 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.

Ensure the voltage and frequency of the power

being used corresponds to those on the rating plate. Only insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug , replace the socket, rather than using a adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.

The cord should be secured behind the appliance

and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.

The appliance should always be plugged into its

own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevent overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.

Extension Cord

WARNING: DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD

OR AN ADAPTER PLUG WITH THIS APPLIANCE.

Grounding Instructions

This appliance must be earthed. In the event of a

malfunction or breakdown, earthing will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipmentearthing conductor and an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and earthed in accordance with all local standards and requirements.

WARNING

Improper connection of the equipment earthing

conductor can result in the risk of an electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service

representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly earthed.

Do not modify the plug provided with the

appliance. If the plug does not fit properly to the outlet, please have a qualified electrician install a proper outlet.

Page 7Page 22

Installation Using Your Dishwasher

Positioning the Appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The

back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or walls. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned either to the right or the left sides to facilitate proper installation.

Levelling

Once the appliance is positioned for levelling, the

height of the dishwasher may be altered via adjustment of the screwing level of the feet. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2 °.

AquaStop Anti-Flood Protection

Your dishwasher is fitted with an AquaStop anti-

flood protection system. This system consists of a solenoid safety shut off valve which in the unlikely event of a leak, a float switch will signal the Solenoid to cut off the water supply. Therefore avoiding any flooding.

Do not immerse the water inlet hose or the safety

valve in water. There is an electrical cable for the safety valve in the double-walled water inlet hose.

If water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged,

remove the main plug immediately.

Do not enlarge or shorten the inlet hose because it

contains electric parts.

Cold Water Connection

How to Connect the safety supply hose

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

Water pressure must be between 0.04 MPa and 1 MPa. If the pressure is below the minimum, consult our Service Department for advice.

If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear. This precaution is needed to avoid the risk of the water inlet getting blocked and damaging the appliance.

1. Pull the safety supply hose completely out from the storage compartment located at the rear of dishwasher.

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

3. Turn water fully on before starting the dishwasher.

WARNING! In order to avoid water staying in the inlet hose, please close the hydrant after using.

WARNING! A hose that attaches to a sink spray can burst if it is installed on the same water line as the dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected and the hole plugged.

FORGET TO ADD A DISH?

A forgotten dish can be added at any time before the detergent cup opens.

1. Press the Start/Pause button.

2. Open the door a little to stop the washing.

3. After the spray arms stop working, you can open the door completely.

4. Load the forgotten dishes.

5. Close the door.

6. Press the Start/Pause button, the dishwasher will start running again after 10 seconds.

WARNING! It is dangerous to open the door when washing, because the hot water may scald you.

AT THE END OF THE WASH CYCLE

When the working cycle has finished, the buzzer of the dishwasher will sound for 8 seconds, then stop. Turn off the appliance using the Power switch button, shut off the water supply and open the door of the dishwasher. Wait for a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.

Switch off the Dishwasher

The program light is on but is not blinking, only in this case the programme has ended.

1. Switch off the dishwasher by pressing Power button.

2. Turn off the water tap.

Open the door carefully

Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should be allowed to cool down around 15 minutes before removing from the appliance.

Open the dishwasher's door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes. Dishes 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 and then the upper one. This will avoid water dripping from the upper Basket onto the dishes in the lower one.

How to disconnect the safety supply hose

1. Turn off the water.

2. Unscrew the safety supply hose from the faucet.

Suggested remedy:

Use glassware or porcelain dishes that have been

marked dishwasher-proof by the manufacturer

Use a mild detergent that is described as kind of

dishes If necessary, seek further information from detergent manufacturers.

Select a program with as low a temperature.

To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of

the dishwasher as soon as possible after the program has ended. as possible after the program

has ended.

BEFORE STARTING THE DISHWASHER

The following things should be checked before starting the dishwasher:

1. That the dishwasher is level and fixed properly.

2. That the inlet valve is open .

3. There is no leakage at the connections of the conducts.

4. The wires are tightly connected.

5. The power is switched on.

6. The inlet and drain hoses are not knotted or kinked.

7. All packing & print materials should be taken out of the dishwasher.

PRIOR TO USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher is 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 110ml.

When to refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

If there is no rinse-aid warning light in the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the colour of the optical level indicator "C" located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole indicator will be dark. As the rinse-aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1/4 full.

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

Full

3/4 Full

1/2 Full

1/4 Full (Should refill to eliminate spotting)

Empty

C (Rinse-Aid indicator)

Forks

Soup spoons2

3 Dessert spoons

Teaspoons4

Knives

Function of the Rinse Aid

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying.

WARNING!

Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

Page 11Page 18

Using Your Dishwasher

How to fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

1. To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.

2. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.

3. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.

ATTENTION! Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.

Loading the Lower Basket

We suggest that you place large items and the most difficult to clean items are to be placed into the lower basket: such as pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure below.

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.

Folding spikes of Lower Basket

For better stacking of pots and pans, the spikes can be folded down as show in the picture below.

Saucers

Dinner plates

Soup plates

Using Your Dishwasher

Loading the Upper Basket

The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cup and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).

Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.

Adjusting the Upper Basket

The height of the upper basket can be adjusted in order to create more space for large utensils both for the upper/lower basket. The height of the upper basket can be adjusted by lifting the handle on either side of the basket, see pictures below:

Lower position

Upper position

Adjustment Handle

Adjusting the Rinse Aid Dispenser

The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always start with the dispenser set on "4". If spots and poor drying are a problem, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "5". If the dishes are still not drying properly or show spots, adjust the dial to the next higher level until your dishes are spot free. The recommended setting is "4". (Factory value is "4".)

NOTE: Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.

Adjust lever (Rinse)

Concentrated Detergent

Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:

Conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic

components Low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural

enzymes

The use of “normal” washing programs in combination with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes;

These wash programs are specifically matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason “normal” wash programs in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using “intensive” programs.

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 programs. Therefore please use long programs when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.

Cups

Saucers

Please be reminded that:

Pots, serving bowls, etc, must always be placed

top down. Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to

flow out.

The Bottom Basket features folding spikes so that larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.

Glasses

Folding back the cup shelves

For reduced loads, the additional cup shelves can be folded down if not required as shown below.

Detergents

Detergents have chemical ingredients that are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out of the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.

There are 3 sorts of detergents:

1. With phosphate and with chlorine

2. With phosphate and without chlorine

3. Without phosphate and without chlorine

Normally new pulverised detergent is 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 spots appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent 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 program with a higher temperature.

Using Your Dishwasher

Detergent Dispenser

The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the wash cycle table. Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid t han Conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

Adding detergent to Dishwasher

If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid will

spring open. Always add the detergent just before starting each

wash cycle. Only use branded detergent aid for dishwasher.

Push latc h to open

Detergent powder

Detergent tablet

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

Proper Use of Detergent

Only use detergent specifically made for the use in

dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powdered detergent into the dispenser

until you're ready to wash dishes.

Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent. The marking indicates the dosing levels, as shown below:

Location of main wash cycle detergent.

Location of pre-wash cycle detergent.

Please observe the manufacturers dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.

Close the lid and press until it locks in place.

If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent dose in the pre-wash detergent chamber. This detergent will take effect during the pre-wash phase.

NOTE: See information about the amount of detergent for the single programs on page 19. Please be aware, that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of water differences are possible.

P l e a s e o b s e r v e t h e m a n u f a c t u r e r ' s recommendations on the detergent packaging.

LOADING THE DISHWASHER BASKET

Recommendation

Consider buying utensils which are identified as

dishwasher-proof. Use a mild detergent that is described as 'kind to

dishes'. If necessary, seek further information from the detergent manufacturers.

For particular items, select a program with as low

a temperature as possible. To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery

out of the dishwasher immediately after the programme has ended.

Suitability of use in the dishwasher

NOT SUITABLE FOR USE

Cutlery with wooden, horn china or mother-of-

pearl handles Plastic items that are not heat resistant

Older cutlery with glued parts that are not

temperature resistant Bonded cutlery items or dishes

Pewter or cooper items

Crystal glass

Steel items subject to rusting

Wooden platters

Items made from synthetic fibres

LIMITED SUITABILITY:

Some types of glasses can become dull after a

large number of washes Silver and aluminum parts have a tendency to

discolour during washing Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed

frequently

Attention before or after Loading the Dishwasher Baskets.

For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of baskets and cutlery baskets may vary from your model.

Scrape off any large food particles. Soften remnants of burnt food in pans.

It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water. Place objects in the dishwasher in following way:

1. Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are faced downwards.

2. Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded aslant so that water can run off.

3. All utensils are stacked securely and can not tip over.

4. All utensils are placed in the way that the spray

arms can rotate freely during washing.

NOTE: Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the baskets.

Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans

etc. With the opening facing downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.

Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside

one another, or cover each other.

To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch.

Load large items which are most difficult to clean

into the lower basket.

The upper basket is designed to hold more

delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups

Long bladed knives stored in an upright position

are a potential hazard!

Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as

carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.

Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is

important for good results and for reasonable consumption of energy.

Removing the Dishes

To prevent water dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we recommend that you empty the lower basket first and then the upper basket.
