Installation instructions

Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician and/or plumber or competent person.

Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.

If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain.

Building-in

This dishwasher is designed to be fitted under a kitchen counter or worksurface.

Attention!

Carefully follow the instructions on the enclosed template for building in the dishwasher and fitting the furniture panel.

No further openings for the venting of the dishwasher are required, but only to let the water fill and drain hose and power supply cable pass through.

The dishwasher incorporates adjustable feet to allow the adjustment of the height.

During all operations that involve accessibility to internal components the dishwasher has to be unplugged.

When inserting the machine, ensure that the water inlet hose, the drain hose and the supply cable are not kinked or squashed.

Levelling

Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of the door.

When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch on either side of the cabinet.

If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.

Fixing to the adjacent units

The dishwasher must be secured against tilting. Therefore make sure that the counter it is fixed under, is suitably secured to a fixed structure (adjacent kitchen units cabinets, wall).

Water supply connections

This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 60°) or cold water. Nevertheless we advise you a cold water supply. A hot water supply is not always efficient with very soiled crockery as it shortens the washing programmes a lot.

For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4" inch gas thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Press-block.

The water pressure must be within the limits given in the "Technical specifications". Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average mains pressure in your area.

The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled when it is being connected up.

The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation by means of the locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted to

avoid water leaks. (Attention! NOT all models of dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut. In this case, this kind of facility is not possible).

If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.

Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been used in another appliance.

The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that prevent the wash water returning into the drinking water system and comply with the applicable plumbing regulations.

Water inlet hose with safety valve

After connecting the double-walled water inlet hose, the safety valve is next to the tap. Therefore the water inlet hose is only under pressure while the water is running. If the water inlet hose starts to leak during this operation, the safety valve cuts off the running water.

Please take care when installing the water inlet hose:

- The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the doublewalled water inlet hose. Do not immerse the water inlet hose or the safety valve in water.

- If water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, remove the mains plug immediately.

- A water inlet hose with safety valve must only be replaced by a specialist or by the Service Force Centre.

- Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it is never higher than the bottom edge of the safety valve.

Page 5

Water outlet hose connection

The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following ways:

1. To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the underside of the work surface. This will prevent waste water from the sink running into the machine.

2. Hooked over the edge of the sink using the special curved plastic guide (if provided with the machine).

3. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal diameter 4 cm.

The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the dishwasher.

The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher

Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water.

The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is draining as this could cause the water to siphon back into the machine.

If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2 metres and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.

Electrical connection

This appliance must be earthed. The manufacturer declines any responsibility should this safety measure not be observed.

If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for the socket, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fitted.

Important

The wires on the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Green and Yellow - Earth

Blue - Neutral

Brown - Live

If you fit your own plug, the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals in your plug.

Proceed as follows:

1. Connect the Green and Yellow (earth) wire to the terminal

in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or the earth symbol or coloured green and yellow.

2. Connect the Blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured black.

3. Connect the Brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red.

CS18

Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.

Attention!

Our appliances are supplied with a security device to protect against the return of dirty water back into the machine. If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve" incorporated this can prevent the correct draining of your dishwasher. We advise you therefore to remove it.

13 A

CE04

The plug moulded onto the lead incorporates a 13amp BSI362 fuse. Only ASTA or BSI fuses should be used.

The plug must not be used if the fuse cover/carrier is lost. The cover/carrier is indicated by the coloured insert at the base of the plug.

A replacement cover/carrier must be obtained from your local Service Force Centre.

To isolate the dishwasher from mains, remove the mains plug.

Important! The plug must still be accessible after the appliance has been installed.

The appliance should not be connected to the electrical supply by means of an extension cable.

In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced, please contact your local Service Force Centre.

Prior to using for the first time

Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instructions.

2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance.

3. Set the water softener.

4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill

with salt.

5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.

Setting the water softener

The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.

The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German

degrees, French degrees and mmol/l (millimol per litre). The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of

the water in your area.Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.

The water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using the water hardness switch and electronically, using the function push buttons on the control panel.

a) Setting manually

1. Open the dishwasher door.

2. Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.

3. Turn the water hardness switch to position 1 or 2 (see

table).

4. Replace the lower basket.

The dishwasher is factory set at position 2.

b) Setting electronically

(The dishwasher must be switched off)

The dishwasher is factory set at level 5.

1. Press the On/Off push button. All programme selection push buttons indicator lights will illuminate (setting mode).

If only one programme selection push button indicator light is illuminated, this means that a washing programme has been selected. The programme must be cancelled: press simultaneously the function push buttons 2 and 3 for about 2 seconds, the indicator light of the setted programme push button starts flashing for about 2 seconds. After about 2 seconds the indicator lights of all the programme selection push buttons will illuminate indicating that the setted programme has been cancelled and that the machine is now in setting mode.

2. Press simultaneously function push buttons 2 and 3, until the indicator lights of the function push buttons 1, 2 and 3 start flashing.

3. Press the function push button 1, the indicator lights of function push buttons 2 and 3 turn off while the indicator light of the push button 1 goes on flashing, the digital display indicates the current level and a sequence of intermittent audible signals are heard. The current level is indicated by the number visible in the display and the number of intermittent audible signals heard.

Example:

displayed + 5 audible signals = level 5.

4. To change the level, press push button 1. Each time the push button is pressed the level changes. (For the selection of the new level see the chart).

Examples:

if the current level is 5, by pressing push button 1 once, level 6 is selected. if the current level is 10, by pressing push button 1 once, level 1 is selected.

Filling with salt

Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers. All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilt, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.

To fill:

1. Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the

cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.

2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time).

3. Using the funnel provided,

pour in the salt until the container is full.

4. Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.

5. Screw on the cap tightly turning it clockwise until it stops with a click.

SR14

The salt container will require topping up periodically.

A salt indicator light on the control panel will come on when the salt has finished.

The salt indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has been replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains switched on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then this can take longer.The function of the machine is not affected.

Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal.

Rinse aid

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

The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing programmes, depending upon the dosage setting.

Filling with rinse aid

1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A).

2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The

maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".

BR07

BR14

Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.

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

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.

Adjusting the dose

According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).

The dose is factory set in position 4.

Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing.

Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.

BR09

Top up the rinse aid when the indicator light on the control panel illuminates.

Page 10

● If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains

rinse aid, the detergent including the rinse aid must be placed in the detergent compartment. In this case the rinse aid inflow must be deactivated in order to avoid a double dosage.

Deactivation/activation of the inflow of rinse aid

Sponges, household cloths and any object that can absorb water may not be washed in the dishwasher.

● Before loading the dishes, you should:

- Remove large left-overs.

- Soften remnants of burnt food in pans

● When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note:

- Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the spray arms .

- Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with the opening 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.

- Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.

●

Plastic items and pans with teflon have a tendency to retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel items.

are not suitable:

- Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother-of-pearl handles

- Plastic items that are not heat resistant

Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the spray arms can turn freely.

are of limited suitability:

- Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is specifically marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.

- Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently

- Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing. Left-overs, e.g. egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore always clean left-overs from silver immediately, if it is not to be washed straight after use.

- Some types of glass can become dull after a large number of washes

The two rows of prongs on the lower basket can be easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls.

Page 12

The cutlery basket

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. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives.

Forks and spoons should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards and the knives with their handles facing upwards. If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the handles facing upwards.

Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking together.

Adjusting the height of the upper basket

If washing very large plates you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position.

Maximum height of the dishes in

upper basket lower basket

With upper basket raised 20 cm 31 cm

With upper basket lowered 24 cm 27 cm

To move to the higher position proceed as follows:

1. Pull out the basket until it stops.

2. Carefully lift both sides upwards until the mechanism is

engaged and the basket is stable.

For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grid provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it).

UI76

The upper basket

The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses.

Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces.

Glasses with long stems can be placed upside down in the cup racks.

For taller items, the cup racks can be folded upwards.

Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.

US75

Attention!

Never lift or lower the basket on one side only

When the basket is in the higher position you will not be able to use the cup rack(s).

RC09

To lower the basket to the original position proceed as follows:

1. Pull out the basket until it stops.

2. Carefully lift both sides upwards and then allow the

mechanism to drop back down slowly, keeping hold of it.

After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard.

US74

Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely.

Page 13

Use of detergent

Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers.

Using no more then the correct amount of detergent contributes to reducing pollution.

Prior to the start of a wash programme. The detergent is released during the washing phase.

Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.

Different kinds of detergent

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

Do not place the tablets in the tub or in the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent dispenser.

Fill with detergent

1. If the lid is closed: press release button (1).The lid springs

open.

2. Fill the detergent dispenser (2) with detergent. The marking indicates the dosing levels: 20 = approximately 20 g of detergent 30 = approximately 30 g of detergent

DE19

3. All programmes with prewash need an additional detergent dose (5/10 g) that must be placed in the prewash detergent chamber (3). This detergent will take effect during the prewash phase.

4. Close the lid and press until it locks in place.

DE22

Concentrated detergent

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

- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.

- low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes. The use of 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with

concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated detergent. For this reason 50°C wash programmes in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C programmes.

Combi detergents

If you are using dishwasher detergent that includes the rinse aid function, this must be placed in the detergent compartment.

In this case it is necessary to deactivate the inflow of rinse aid, in order to avoid a double dosage.

Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents

General advice

These products are detergents with integrated and combined detergent/rinse-aid and salt functions.

1. Before using these products you should first check that the water hardness in your supply is compatible with the use of these products as per the detergent manufacturers (on the product packaging).

2. These products should be strictly used according to the detergent manufacturers instructions.

3. If you encounter problems when using 3 in 1 products for the first time then please contact the detergent manufacturers care line (the telephone number is given on the product packaging).

Special advice

When using combination 3 in 1 products select the lowest possible setting for water hardness.

If you decide to turn back to the use of the standard detergent system we advise that you:

● Refill both the salt container and rinse aid dispenser.

● Switch the water hardness setting to the highest possible

position and run from 1 to 3 normal washing programmes without a load.

● Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the

hardness of the water in your area.

(1) Testing programme for EN 50242 (see "Hints for Test Centres).This programme, developed for the use of detergents with

enzymes, allows you to achieve, with reduced consumption of energy the same cleaning results that would otherwise be obtained only with the 65°C programmes and conventional detergents. To compensate the lower temperature, the duration of washing and drying have been extended.

(2) The consumption values are intended as a guide and depends on the pressure and the temperature of the water and also by

the variations of the power supply.

" " washing programme

During the "ICS" washing programme the amount of soil on the dishes is determined by how cloudy the water is. If the appliance is partially loaded and the dishes lightly soiled, the "prewash"", main wash", and "rinse" phases of the programme are shorter and the water consumption level is lower.

If the appliance is fully loaded and the dishes heavily soiled, the "prewash"", main wash", and "rinse" phases of the programme are longer and the water consumption level is higher.

For this reason the programme duration, water and energy consumption levels can vary within the stated range for ICS programme (see "Washing programmes chart").

During the "ICS" programme the temperature of the main wash water is also automatically adjusted between 50°C and 65°C depending on the amount of soil on the dishes.

Starting a washing programme

In this fully integrated appliance the controls are located on the top of the door. When selecting a programme, the door needs to be open.

1. Check that the baskets have been loaded correctly and that the spray arms can rotate freely

2. Turn on the water tap

3. Press the On/Off button

All the indicator lights of the programme selection buttons illuminate (setting mode).

4. Setting and starting the programme

a) To select a programme, press the programme button of

the washing programme you wish to select (see "Washing programmes" chart). The corresponding indicator light remains illuminated while the other programme buttons indicator lights turn off. In the digital display flashes the running time of the selected programme.

b) To select the delay start of the programme, press the

"delay start" option button until the number of the hours selected for the delay start, followed by the letter h, will appear in the digital display (e.g. 1 h).

The start of the programme o the countdown of the delay start will occur only after the closure of the door, until this moment you can modify the selection made.

Close the dishwasher door.

a) If delay start has not been setted, the programme will

start automatically.

b) If delay start has been setted, the countdown starts

automatically and will decrease with steps of 1 hour. The opening of the door will not modify or interrupt the

countdown. Once the delay start has elapsed the programme will start automatically.

After about 2 seconds the indicator lights of all the programme buttons will illuminate indicating that the running programme has been cancelled and that the machine has returned to setting mode. It is now possible to select and start a new washing programme. (If a new washing programme will be

selected, check that there is detergent in the detergent dispenser).

6. To cancel a delay start in progress

Open the dishwasher door. In the digital display is visible the remaining delay time

before the start of the programme. Press simultaneously the function buttons 2 and 3

for about 2 seconds. After about 2 seconds the indicator lights of all the programme buttons will illuminate indicating that the delay start in progress has been cancelled and that the machine has returned to setting mode.

With the cancelling of the delay start also the setted programme has been cancelled.

Set the washing programme again.

7. End of the washing programme

The dishwasher will automatically stop and an audible signal informs you of the end of the washing programme.

If the door is not immediately opened at the end of the programme, air will circulate inside the dishwasher to prevent residual steam recondensing on the dishes as water droplets.

This device operates intermittently for about 20 minutes, as long as the dishwasher is switched on.

If the On/Off button is pressed or the door is opened during these 20 minutes, the device will be automatically cancelled.

Hot steam may escape from the appliance when opening the door immediately after the end of the programme, therefore, open the door carefully.

The end of programme indicator light is illuminated.

Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button.

5. To interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress

Interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress ONLY if it’s absolutely necessary

Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is opened. Open the door carefully.

Interrupt a washing programme in progress

Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop. Close the door; the programme will start from the point in which it was interrupted.

Cancel a washing programme in progress

Open the dishwasher door. Press simultaneously the function buttons 2 and 3

for about 2 seconds, the indicator light of the button corresponding to the running programme starts flashing for about 2 seconds.

8. Unloading the dishwasher

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

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.

Water may appear on the sides and the door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes.

When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off.

Maintenance and cleaning

Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or

solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).

Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.

We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.

Cleaning the filters

The filters must be checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will degrade the washing result.

1. Open the door, remove the lower basket.

2. The dishwasher filter system comprises a coarse filter

(A), a microfilter (B) and a flat filter (C). Unlock the filter system using the handle on the microfilter, and remove.

Under no circumstances may the dishwasher be used without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results.

NEVER try to remove the upper spray arm.

If residues of soil have clogged the holes in the upper spray arm, remove them with a toothpick.
