IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING – When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

a) Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. b) Use the dishwasher only for its intended function. c) Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep

them out of the reach of children.

d) When loading items to be washed:

1) locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal; and

2) load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

e) Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent.

For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Note: This statement may be omitted for an appliance that employs a heating element that is located or guarded such that melted plastic items are not likely to contact it.

f) Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use. g) Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place. h) Do not tamper with controls. i) Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher. j) To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on a dishwasher. k) Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot-water system that

has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hotwater system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot-water faucets and let the water ﬂow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is ﬂammable, do not smoke or use an open ﬂame during this time.

l) Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from

service or discarding it.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will

reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING – Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualiﬁed electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance; if it will not ﬁt the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualiﬁed electrician.

INSTALLATION AND FITTING

UNPACKING THE DISHWASHER

UNPACKAGING

Remove the inner protection parts: polystyrene wedges for holding racks firmly.

El lavavajillas está The dishwasher is equipped with a high pressure water connection pipe with a 3/4 (1.905 cm) directional internal pipe thread at normal temperature and pressure values (NPT).

In order to make its installation easier, the dishwasher includes a 3/8” (0.9525 cm) brass compression part for 3/4 NPT which adapts the pipe connector to a 3/8” compression part which incorporates the majority of the valves which close the water connection for domestic dishwashers. Alternatively, the pipe can be coupled directly to a male 3/4 brass NPT connector which is available in most hardware stores.

Adjust the direction of the pipe and the connection which comes out of the rear part of the appliance following the installation instructions.

The hose has to pass between the wall and the bottom space at the back of the dishwasher (b1), so that it is not squashed or too rigid (b2).

DRAINAGE

Connect the drainage pipe incorporated into a waste disposal unit, on a drainage pipe tap or in a residual gap depending on plumbing standards in force.

It is possible to lengthen the drain pipe with material resistant to hot water and detergent. Always keep an inner diameter of at least 5/8” (1.5875 cm). Never exceed the maximum distance of 9” (22.86 cm) to the drainage piping.

Raise the drain pipe and fasten it to the lower part of the worktop. Lower it again to the drainage connection point following these instructions:

1. The connection with the drain pipe must be at least 10” (25,4 cm) from the floor.

2. The connection with the drain pipe must be no higher than 35” (88.9 cm) from the floor.

In order to make installation easier, the dishwasher includes an assembly bracket for curved drain pipes.

It is important that the bend of the drainage hose is properly anchored in the outlet to avoid falling out and the consequent risk of flooding. The (minimum and maximum) water operating pressure must fall between 0.05 and 0.1 Mpa. Make sure that the connector for the appliance’s lower pipe is properly adjusted before installing.

Please refer to the specifications label on the top edge of the door, before making electrical connections. Make sure than the voltage sent to the plug socket is the voltage which appears on the label.

The dishwasher requires an earthed 120 V, 15 Amp, 60 Hz plug socket.

The dishwasher is fitted with a flexible power cable, ending in a three pin earth plug which can be connected to a socket.

The socket for the dishwasher must be located in a cabinet or a wall next to the gap under the worktop where the appliance is going to be installed.

Make a hole with maximum diameter of 11/2 “(38 mm) in the cabinet wall through which the plug and the cable can be passed.

Instructions for the edges of this hole:

Wooden cabinets: the edge must be filed and rounded.

Metal cabinets: request a special eyelet to be made by the service workshop.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

When installing or moving the dishwasher, take care not to damage the power cable.

It is very important that the dishwasher is connected to earth. The electrical installation, plug, socket, fuses or circuit breaker and meter must be capable of managing the maximum power indicated on the specifications label. If the power cable is damaged, it can only be substituted by the manufacturer, After Sales Department, or authorized personnel. In the event of insertion and integration, the plug must be accessible after installation.

IMPORTANT

Inside the door, on the top edge, you will find the specifications label. This label should never be removed, as it gives information about the exact model of the dishwasher, power supply, series number and warranty.

IMPORTANT

PANELLING

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - A FEW PRACTICAL TIPS

DISHWASHER

RINSE-AID AND DETERGENT

The rinse-aid helps drying and prevents drops of water forming on the dishes after washing. The rinse-aid compartment is inside the door, next to the detergent.

The compartment has a 4 position dispenser to adjust the quantity of rinse-aid depending on the water quality (the dispenser leaves the factory in position 2).

If drops of water can be seen on the dishes, increase the number on the rinse-aid dispenser. If the dishes have white or sticky lines, reduce the number.

Once the level of the dispenser has been set, fill the compartment to the top, without overflowing. If it does overflow, clean the extra off with a cloth.

RINSEAID COMPARTMENT

DISPENSER

The dishes will not be cleaner by adding more rinse-aid. On the contrary, excess can produce stains.

IMPORTANT

English

When should you add more rinse-aid?

The dishwasher itself will tell you when you need to top up the rinse-aid. Depending on the model, there are two types of indicator: window or pilot light.

Transparent window next to the rinse-aid compartment cover. If the window shows a clear background, a top-up is required. If the background is dark, there is enough rinse-aid.

A light on the front of the dishwasher shows when rinse-aid must be topped up.

The detergent is poured into a compartment inside the door, next to the rinseaid compartment.

Once the detergent has been poured in, close the compartment cover.

Some programs also require part of the dose to be put in the slot in the compartment cover.

Detergents come in tablet, powder and liquid form.

Detergent type only use detergent specifically for dishwashers.

Detergent quantity: See table on page 18.

Only sanitizing cycles (2, 3, 4) have been designed to meet requirements for sanitization efficacy.

ECOLOGICAL WASHING

Using excessive quantities of detergent and rinse-aid does not improve washing results and besides costing you more, it has a negative effect on the

environmental.

Not all dishes can be used in a dishwasher. It is not advisable to put in

wooden or clay utensils, or non heat resistant plastic. Stainless steel cutlery can be washed

could be worn away if it is not good quality.

Make sure that the utensils can be used in a dishwasher.

IMPORTANT

It is very important to fit the dishes into the racks properly to guarantee perfect washing.

The lower rack is for the dirtiest and most resistant pieces: pans, serving dishes and plates. Make sure that there is space between them for the water jet to be able to reach them. Pans must be placed facing downwards.

If you model has fold- down racks, you can use then in their vertical position to wash plates, and horizontally for large items such as casserole dishes.

Positioning the dishes

The additional functions depend on the model:

SELECTING ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS

Button: Top / Low load

This uses only half the dishwasher capacity. Top Load, in the top rack for more delicate pieces, and Low Load, in the low rack, for very dirty pans or dishes. Valid for all programs.

ECOLOGICAL WASHING

If the model has an Eco-Sensor, 25% of water can be saved using the Intensive or Normal program. The Eco-Sensor detects how dirty the pre-wash water is and, if clean enough, reuses it for the wash.

IMPORTANT

If the program is changed or the ON / OFF button is pressed whilst additional functions are being selected, all selected functions are cancelled.

END OF PROGRAM

Once the program has finished, the dishwasher will beep continuously for 3 seconds.

When opening the dishwasher door, you can verify the wash finish by checking a light on the door edge.

START UP

Once the wash program has been chosen and the additional functions selected, close the dishwasher door and it will start up automatically.

When the dishwasher is operating and...

– You wish to put another piece in the dishwasher. – You wish to change the wash program.

1. Open the dishwasher door.

2. Put the piece in the dishwasher and/or modify the wash program

3. Close the dishwasher door. If the modification interferes with the duration of the selected wash program or if it is

the delay option then press the ON/OFF first to change status

POWER CUTS

If there is a power cut, when the power comes back on the dishwasher will continue its normal operation from the point where it was stopped (it has a minimum memory of 12 hours, depending on the model).

BASIC RECCOMMENDATIONS

There are a series of issues which must be taken into consideration to help your dishwasher last longer and wash better.

Fill the dishwasher. Try to make the most of the dishwasher capacity and so reduce water and electricity consumption and lead to quieter operation.

Position the dishes properly. For optimum wash quality, the water spray arms must turn freely without obstacles. In the same way, the pieces must be correctly positioned for the water jet to reach them.

Choice of program. Choose the wash program and the additional functions properly, according to your needs.

Cleaning. Clean the filters and the water spray arms every three months. Also make sure that they are correctly refitted.
