3 / INFORMATIONS
Important:
For your dishwasher to provide impeccable washing and drying results with no
marks, you must set it correctly using the
water softening system, which uses regenerating salt.
•
THE WATER HARDNESS
•
Lime:
rainwater filtering through the
ground picks up mineral salts; some minerals
are found in solid form commonly termed
lime. This reduces the washing detergent’s
performance, furs up the dishwasher and leaves white marks on the crockery.
The more lime there is in the water, the more the
water is called “hard”.
Use the most suitable products for the level of
water hardness in your town.
There are several types of products; how to
choose:
For impeccable results, preferably
use a combination of traditional products:
①
Washing detergent
to clean the
crockery perfectly (powder, liquid or standard tablets).
②
Regenerating salt
to enable your dishwasher’s water softener to operate correctly.
③
Rinsing liquid
to assist drying and to
eliminate marks from water droplets.
Important:
Never use washing-up liquid.
For ease of use and only in certain
water hardness conditions < 25°F,
multi-purpose products
may make the
use of rinsing liquid or salt unnecessary.
• “Two-in-one” products
contain
detergents, rinsing liquid or an agent acting
as the salt.
• “Three-in-one” products
contain
detergents, rinsing liquid and an agent acting
as the salt.
• “Four-in-one” products
also
contain additives that prevent wear on poor
quality glasses and /or prevent the risks of
the stainless steel corroding.
Important:
Follow the instructions for using the
multi-purpose product and the recommendations on the pack.
NB:
If in any doubt, please contact the
detergent manufacturer if the crockery is
very wet at the end of the programme or if
chalky deposits appear.

4 / ACTIONS BEFORE FIRST USE
In one simple action, you can test the your water’s lime content using the testing strip supplied with
your dishwasher. Alternatively, contact your local water utility to ascertain your water’s hardness.
— Let the water run from the tap for a few moments.
— Fill a glass with water.
— Take the test strip from its holder and immerse it for 3 seconds.
— Wait 1 minute, shake it and look at the colours to ascertain your water’s hardness.

Very important :
Items not suitable for washing in a dishwasher
- Wooden cutting boards,
- Stainless steel utensils or plastic utensils that are not heat-resistant,
- Copper or pewter items,
- Glued crockery and cutlery,
- Cutlery with wooden, horn or mother-of-pearl handles,
- Antique or hand-painted porcelain.
When purchasing crockery, glasses or cutlery, ensure that it is dishwasher-safe.
• THE LOWER BASKET
Arrange your items so that the water can circulate freely and spray over all the utensils.
Place large diameter dishes and pans at the
sides.
Do not intersperse, jam together or superimpose flat plates and concave dishes (Fig. 08).
The folding spikes make it easier to arrange
your large dishes (Fig. 09) (depending on the
model).
Advice :
When you re-insert the lower basket,
ensure that nothing catches on the upper
basket’s gauge wire to avoid blocking the
rotor.
Unloading your items
First of all empty the lower basket to avoid
drips from the upper basket falling onto the
lower basket.

• THE CUTLERY BASKET
The cutlery basket slides to allow for modulable loading.
It can be placed anywhere in the lower basket.
You can therefore make a variety of loads
depending on the items (Fig. 12).
If your cutlery items or your dishes are too
large, alter the height setting for the upper
basket (if it can be adjusted, depending on the
model).
Movable grills are available for if you wish to
load your cutlery in an orderly manner
(Fig.
13).
For optimum washing and drying, use these
separation grills partially or totally.
Point the handles on the cutlery downwards.
Important :
For safety reasons, we recommend
that you place knives with pointed ends with
the point facing downwards in the cutlery
basket (to avoid the risk of an accident).
Long-bladed knives and other sharp kitchen
utensils must be placed flat in the upper basket.
Avoid washing cutlery with horn handles in
your dishwasher.
Separate silverware from other metals using

• THE INDICATOR LIGHTS
Problem Possible Causes What to do ?
The salt light does not go out - No salt or an insufficient quan-
tity of salt in the tank to trigger
the float.
-
Refill the tank and wait for the
cycle to end. If you have soft
water that requires no salt, the
light is constantly lit.
The lights all light up one after
the other
A light flashes and the
programme does not start
- Wrong programme.
-
Programme selector wrongly
positioned (between two notches)
- Cancel the current programming by holding down the Start
button for 3 seconds and then
re-programme.
- Reposition the selector on a
programme.
• RELATING TO PROGRAMMING, DISPLAY
Problem Possible Causes What to do ?
The cycle lasts too long - lThe energy-saving program-
mes last longer because the
agitation and drying times are
longer to compensate for the
lower washing and drying temperatures
- Use these programmes preferably at night when it is not so
important how long the programme lasts or when it ends.
The appliance trips the circuit
breaker
- Insufficient amperage to supply all the appliances being
operated simultaneously.
- Internal fault in the appliance.
- Check the socket’s amperage
(10A minimum) and the
meter’s capacity.
- Call a technician.
The appliance does not start - No mains power to the socket.
- Tap closed.
(Cf. table fault d01).
- Selection error or programme
lock.
- Start button pressed too long
(>2”).
-
Appliance in Safety mode (antileak).
(Cf. table fault d07).
- Check the socket and the fuse
- Check the tap is open.
- Check the hose line is OK.
- Cancel by holding down Start
for 3” and re-programme.
- Just press Start briefly to start
the programme.
- Call a technician.

situated underneath it, items
nested or jammed together).
- Upper spray arm blocked by
cutlery or a dish etc.
- Filter poorly locked and lifting
during washing.
- Micro filter screen clogged.
- One or more holes in the spray
arm blocked.
- Arrange the items properly.
Use the most appropriate
areas and accessories for each
type of item (see instructions).

the filter is locked in place (push
it in fully, turning it to the right)
.
- Remove all the filters and clean
them (in warm water), including
the micro filter’s screen (once
a month).
- Remove the spray arm by turning the lever a quarter of a turn
and clean it under the tap (do
not use any tool that could
damage the holes). Re-install
the spray arm.
Traces of grease - Detergent dose too low; ineffi-
cient detergent; stale product.
- Inappropriate programme
(temperature too low; duration
too short).
-
Increase the dose; try another
detergent.
- Select a programme with a
higher temperature.
• POOR WASHING RESULTS
Problem Possible Causes What to do?
The appliance will not restart - Door opened during a
washing cycle.
- Wait for the time delay to end
(controlled internally by the
appliance).
The appliance does not drain
(Cf. table fault d02).
- The cover has not been removed from the sink’s U-bend.
- Drain hose kinked.
- Filters totally blocked.

down or pipe pushed too far in.
- siphoning: the appliance is
emptying as the same time as
it is filling up.
- filtering system clogged.
- adhere to the drainage tube
installation dimensions.
- clean the filters.

• POOR WASHING RESULTS...
White marks
(identify what type)
- Chalky film (removable with
vinegar).
- Traces of salt (items have a
salty taste).
- Check that there is salt in the
tank (light unlit = OK).
- Check the water hardness at
the tap and that the water softener is set correctly. Adjust it
to a higher level if necessary.
- Water too hard for using a “4in-1” detergent without the
addition of salt.
- Check that the stopper on the
salt container is closed correctly.
White marks
(identify what type)
- Glass cloudy because water
too soft (cannot be removed).
- Check the water hardness at
the tap and that the water softener is set correctly. Some
detergents in pellet form are
more aggressive to glasses
and decorations (change the
product and use a protective
product if necessary).
Coloured marks (tea, wine, coffee)
- Items poorly arranged
- Detergent dose too low ; inefficient detergent
- Programme temperature too
low.
- If you use a multifunction
product.
- Turn the cavities in the items
towards the jets.
- Increase the dose; try another
detergent.
- Select a more suitable programme with a higher temperature.
- Use the “4-in-1” option.
(depending on the model).
Streaks or dried droplets on
glasses
- Lack or insufficient amount of
rinsing product.
- Rinsing product out-of-date or
inefficient.
- If you use a multifunction
product.
- Check the indicator light and
f
ill the tank completely. Adjust
the dispensing unit to a higher
position if necessary.
- Use a recent product (a good
product dilutes easily and
foams in cold water).
- Use the “4-in-1” option.
(depending on the model).
Dried-on marks on glasses,
dullness
- If you use a multifunction
product.
- Use the “4-in-1” option.
(depending on the model).

EN
14 / IF OPERATING ANOMALIES OCCUR
• POOR OPERATION
Problem Possible Causes What to do ?
Constant filling
A lot of waste on the large filter
at the end of the cycle.
-drain tube has become dislodged.
-drain outlet is located too low
with respect to the appliance
(see fault table 12).
-filters and sink drain blocked
due to excess dirt.
-check the draining installation.
-remove and clean the filters and
the bottom of the sink drain.
Remove the largest food
residues from the dishes before
loading them into the dishwasher.
Traces of rust on stainless steel - Quality of the stainless steel
not dishwasher-safe (knives in
particular)
- Use “special dishwasher-safe”
cutlery.
- Check that the stopper on the
salt container is closed correctly.
• POOR DRYING RESULTS
Problem Possible Causes What to do?
A lot of droplets on the glasses. - Lack or insufficient amount of
rinsing product.
- The dose has not been distributed.
- Positioning of the items.
- Check the indicator light and
f
ill the tank completely.
- If the tank is not empty after
approximately 60 washings,
call a technician.
- To alleviate the phenomenon,
arrange the items to restrict
water retention as much as
possible. Leave the door ajar
for a few minutes, if possible
Droplets on plastic items, Tefal
coatings, etc.
- These insulating items have a
low calorific mass.
- Arrange them preferably in the
upper basket.
Poorer drying on rapid
programmes
-
On rapid programmes, the drying
temperature and drying period are
reduced to cut down the duration
of the cycle as much as possible.
- Select a rapid programme
carefully or leave the door ajar
for a few minutes.
Condensation on the wall of the
inside door or the tub.
-
Condensation may form on the
walls, particularly after the
appliance has cooled down
(sound insulation increases the
phenomenon)
