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 dishwasher salt

5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser

NOTE:

If you want to use the "3 in 1" combi detergents, read carefully the informations given in "Different kinds of detergents".

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 minerals and salts, the harder your water is.

Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, Clarke degrees, French degrees (°TH) and mmol/l (millimol per litre international unit for the hardness of water).

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 dial and electronically, using the function 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 dial 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)

NOTE: the electronic setting of the water softener is

possible ONLY with the 3 in 1 function deactivated. The dishwasher is factory set at level 5.

1. Press the On/Off button. The indicator light of the programme selection button will illuminate and 2 horizontal lines (--) are visible in the digital display (setting mode).

2. Press simultaneously function buttons 2 and 3, until the

indicator lights of the function buttons 1, 2 and 3 start flashing.

3. Press function button 1, the indicator lights of function

buttons 2 and 3 turn off while the indicator light of the 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 function button 1. Each time the

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

5. To memorise the operation, switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button or wait about 60 seconds after which the dishwasher will automatically return to setting mode.

Filling with dishwasher 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. Replace the cap tightly turning it clockwise until it stops with a click.

The salt container will require topping up periodically. You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel which comes 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 between 16 and 40 dishwashing cycles, 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".

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.

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

Page 9

● Check if it’s necessary to refill with dishwasher salt or rinse

aid

● Load cutlery and dishes into the dishwasher.

● Fill with dishwasher detergent .

● Select a wash programme suitable for the cutlery and

dishes.

● Start the wash programme.

Loading cutlery and dishes

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.

Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.

The lower basket

The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc.

Arrange serving dishes and large lids (up to 33 cm in diameter) on the left-hand side of the basket, ensuring that the spray arms can turn freely.

The rows of prongs can be easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls.

In daily use

For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery/dishes

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. Residues, 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

are not suitable:

- 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 copper items

- Lead crystal glass

- Steel items prone to rusting

- Wooden platters

- Items made from synthetic fibres

Page 10

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.

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

The cutlery basket is in two parts which can be separated to give greater loading flexibility. To separate the two parts, slide them horizontally in opposite directions and pull them apart. To reassemble, reverse the procedure.

The upper basket

The upper basket is designed for cups, long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives.

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

Use of detergent

Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers.

We recommend the use of Finish detergents. Using no more than the correct amount of detergent

contributes to reducing pollution. Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage

recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.

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

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.

Page 11

Detergent tablets

Detergent tablets from different manufactures dissolve at different rates. For this reason, some detergent tablets do not attain their full cleaning power during short washing programmes. Therefore please use long washing programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.

Concentrated detergent

Today’s detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively lowalkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet form.

Using 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with these concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes, as these washing programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in concentrated detergents. It is for this reason that using 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents can achieve the same cleaning results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C washing programmes.

Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents

These products are detergents with a combined cleaning, rinsing and salt function.

1. Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hardness. Follow the manufacturers instructions.

2. Set the "3 in 1" function.

3. Before the start of the washing programme put the "3 in 1"

detergent in the detergent dispenser.

NOTE: If the drying results are not satisfactory we recommend that you:

1. Fill up the rinse aid dispenser with rinse aid.

2. Activate the rinse aid dispenser and set the rinse aid

dosage to position 2.

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

● Deactivate the "3 in 1" function.

● Fill up the dispensers for salt and rinse aid again.

● Adjust the water hardness setting to the highest setting

perform up to 3 normal washing programmes without loading any dishes.

● Adjust the water hardness setting according to the

hardness of the water in your area.

● Adjust the rinse aid dosage.

NOTE: When using 4 in 1 detergents that integrate also anti-

glass corrosion agent into "3 in 1" formula, please follow the same instruction as given for "3 in 1" detergents above.

(1) Ideal for washing crockery and cutlery of breakfast and dinner (fresh soil). This is the perfect daily programme, made to meet the needs of a

family of 4 persons who only wish to load breakfast and dinner crockery and cutlery.

(2) 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.

(3) 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. The programme duration is visible in the digital display when the selection of the washing programme occurs.

Note:

With the set of the half load option, programmes 2 (Intensive 70°C), 3 (Normal 65°C with prewash) 5 (Intensive 65°C) and 8 (Delicate 55°C with prewash) the prewash phase is automatically excluded. (In this case the detergent dose for the prewash phase is no longer necessary).

With programme 7 (Economy 50°C) the duration of the washing phase will be reduced. When using this option we recommend to reduce the dose of detergent that is normally used for a complete load.

Once selected the washing programme (and options) press the delay start button, the corresponding indicator light will illuminate and in the digital display appears 1 h.

Press the delay start button until in the digital display will appear the number of hours desired (from 1 hour up to 19 hours).

Close the dishwasher’s door, 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.

NOTE: 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 set made.

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 at which it was interrupted.

Cancel a washing programme in progress

Open the dishwasher door. Press for about 2 seconds the button cancel, the indicator

light of the programme selection button will illuminate and in the digital display will appear two horizontal lines (--) 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 is to be

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

6. To cancel a delay start in progress

To cancel a delay start in progress you have to reset the dishwasher; follow the same instructions given in "Cancel a washing programme in progress".

Cancelling a delay start involves also the cancelling of the set washing programme (and eventual options).

In this case you have to set the washing programme (and options) 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.

Open the dishwasher’s door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.

In the digital display is visible 0 (remaining running time). The end of programme indicator light is illuminated. Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button.

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.

Starting a washing programme

Page 14

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 the use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner every 3 months or run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.

Regular use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner cleans inaccessible parts, eliminates unpleasant food odours and helps prevent the build-up of limescale.

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.

3. Turn the handle about

/4a turn anticlockwise and remove.

4. Take hold of the coarse filter ( A) by the handle with the hole

and remove from the microfilter (B).

5. Clean all filters thoroughly under running water.

6. Remove the flat filter (C) from the base of the washing

compartment and clean both faces thoroughly.

7. Put the flat filter (C) back in the base of the washing

compartment.

8. Place the coarse filter (A) in the microfilter (B) and

press together.

9. Put the filter combination in place and lock by turning the

handle clockwise to the stop. During this process ensure that the flat filter does not protrude above the base of the washing compartment.

Attention!

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 cocktail stick.

Prolonged periods of non-operation

If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are advised to:

1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.

2. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any

unpleasant smells.

3. Leave the inside of the machine clean.

Frost precautions

Avoid placing the machine in a location where the temperature is below 0°C. If this is unavoidable, empty the machine, close the appliance door, disconnect the water inlet pipe and empty it.

Moving the machine

If you have to move the machine (moving house etc....):

1. Unplug it.

2. Turn the water tap off.

3. Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.

4. Pull the machine out together with the hoses.

Avoid over tilting the machine during transportation.

Guarantee Conditions

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 must be plumbed into a cold water supply. For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the

machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto a 3/4" inch gas thread spout.

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.

The inlet hose must hang down vertically from the supply tap. 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 with 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.

- Awater 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.

Installation instructions

Page 20

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

The waste connection must be at a maximum height of 60 cm 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 syphon back into the machine.

The total length of the drain hose, including any extension you might add, must be no longer than 4 metres. The internal diameter of the extension hose must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.

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.

Electrical connection

WARNING: 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.

The plug moulded onto the lead incorporates a 13amp BSI362 fuse. Only ASTAor 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.

Warning! A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that it is disposed of safely.
