Hints and tips
To save energy
Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing.
If necessary run the Rinse and Hold programme (see "Washing Programmes" chart) so that any food scraps do not become caked on the dishes while you are waiting to run the complete wash programme.
Do not prewash dishes under running water.
For best washing and drying results
Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very heavily soiled pots and pans.
Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. upside-down. Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the water drains off easily.
Avoid contact between the dishes as far as possible.
Items not suitable for dishwashers
The following items should not be washed in the dishwasher (unless they are sold as dishwasher proof):
- Cutlery with wooden or horn handles or glued parts
-bronze cutlery
-saucepans with wooden handles
-aluminium ware
-crystal ware
-leaded glass
-plastic items
-antique or fine decorated china
Certain types of decoration can discolour when washed in a dishwasher.
Crystal-ware and plastic objects, if not guaranteed dishwasher proof should be washed by hand.
Certain types of glass can also become opaque after being washed several times in a dishwasher.
A chemical reaction can occur between silver cutlery and stainless steel cutlery. As a precaution, do not wash together. Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items. Aluminium tends to go black, copper, pewter and brass tend to stain.
If in doubt check with manufacturer of the item.
When buying new dishes, ensure that they are dishwasher proof.

Before use
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.
6.Run a "Rinse and Hold" programme.
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 spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
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, Clarke,
French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).
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 dishwasher is factory set at level 2.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be adjusted.

If your water is level 0 it is already soft and therefore there is no need to use salt.
In this case adjust the water softener on level 1 without using salt.
To adjust the water softener
With a screwdriver turn the selector on the upper front corner of the machine until the level required corresponds with the marker.
