Installation Safety PrecautionsCare and Cleaning
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
Ÿ
as it may damage the door lock and electrical components.
Abrasive agents or some paper towels should not
Ÿ
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
Ÿ
appliance and leave the door slightly open so that moisture and odours are not trapped inside.
Before cleaning or performing maintenance,
Ÿ
always remove the electrical plug from the socket.
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the
Ÿ
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
Ÿ
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.
Open
Electrical Connection
This appliance should be properly grounded for
Ÿ
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
Ÿ
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
Ÿ
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
Ÿ
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
Ÿ
and not left exposed or dangling to prevent accidental injury.
The appliance should always be plugged into its
Ÿ
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
Ÿ
OR AN ADAPTER PLUG WITH THIS APPLIANCE.
Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be earthed. In the event of a
Ÿ
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
Ÿ

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.
Install the hook on the aesthetic panel and put the
Ÿ
hook into the slot of the outer door of dishwasher (see below).
After positioning the panel, fix it to the door using
Ÿ
the screws supplied. Remove the four short screws and screw in the four long screws.
Remove the 4 short screws
Screw in the 4 long screws
Tension adjustment of the door
The door springs are set at the factory to the
Ÿ
proper tension for the outer door. If an aesthetic fascia panel is installed, you will have to adjust the door spring tension. Rotate the adjusting screw to drive the adjustor to strain or relax the steel cable (see below).
Adjust the door spring tension until the door
Ÿ
remains horizontal and balanced in the fully­opened position, yet rises to a close with the slight lift of a finger.

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.
AquaStop Anti-Flood Protection
Your dishwasher is fitted with an AquaStop anti-
Ÿ
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
Ÿ
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,
Ÿ
remove the main plug immediately.
Do not enlarge or shorten the inlet hose because it
Ÿ
contains electric parts.

The safety supply hose consists of the double walls. The hose's system guarantees its intervention by blocking the flow of water in case of the supply hose breaking and when the air space between the supply hose itself and the outer corrugated hose is full of water.
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.

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.
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.
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

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.

LOADING THE DISHWASHER BASKET
Recommendation
Consider buying utensils which are identified as
Ÿ
dishwasher-proof. Use a mild detergent that is described as 'kind to
Ÿ
dishes'. If necessary, seek further information from the detergent manufacturers.
For particular items, select a program with as low
Ÿ
a temperature as possible. To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery
Ÿ
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-
Ÿ
pearl handles. Plastic items that are not heat resistant.
Ÿ
Older cutlery with glued parts that are not
Ÿ
temperature resistant. Bonded cutlery items or dishes.
Ÿ
Pewter or cooper items.
Ÿ
Crystal glass.
Ÿ
Steel items subject to rusting.
Ÿ
Wooden platters.
Ÿ
Items made from synthetic fibres.
Ÿ
LIMITED SUITABILITY:
Some types of glasses can become dull after a
Ÿ
large number of washes. Silver and aluminum parts have a tendency to
Ÿ
discolour during washing. Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed
Ÿ
frequently.
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
Ÿ
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
Ÿ
one another, or cover each other.
To avoid damage to glasses, they must not
Ÿ
touch.
Load large items which are most difficult to clean
Ÿ
into the lower basket.
The upper basket is designed to hold more
Ÿ
delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups.
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position
Ÿ
are a potential hazard!
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as
Ÿ
carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is
Ÿ
important for good results and for reasonable consumption of energy.
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.
1
2
3
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.
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.
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.

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.

Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:
Conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic
Ÿ
components Low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural
Ÿ
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.
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 than Conventio nal 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
Ÿ
spring open. Always add the detergent just before starting each
Ÿ
wash cycle. Only use branded detergent aid for dishwasher.

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
Ÿ
dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powdered detergent into the dispenser
Ÿ
until you're ready to wash dishes.
Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent. The marking indicates the dosing levels, 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.
Please observe the manufacturers dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
2
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 22. Please be aware, that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of water differences are possible.
