1 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing one of Fagor’s products. To use this
dishwasher correctly and safely, please read this manual carefully.
The manual is divided into sections giving you a step-by-step guide
to all your appliance’s functions. The text is easy to understand and
is complete with detailed illustrations. This user-friendly manual will
provide answers to all your questions of the use of the dishwasher.
Before using this dishwasher, carefully read chapter 2 “Important
safety instruction”.
For any other information about use and maintenance of the
dishwasher, read the enclosed general manual carefully.
This manual comprises the following sections:
INTRODUCTION: general information about the manual.
WARNINGS: a list of warnings concerning safety and use of the
dishwasher.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: for the qualifi ed technician who
must carry out the installation, hook-up and testing of the appliance.
EN
USER INSTRUCTIONS: instructions on using the dishwasher programs and information about all the dishwasher functions.
Nomenclature of fi gures and tables:
The progressive number of each fi gure is shown in the bottom righthand corner of the relative box. An example of a progressive number
is “Fig. 4-01”, where the fi rst number (4) indicates the section to
which the fi gure belongs, while the second number (01) indicates
the progressive number of the fi gure in section 4 (Fig. 4-01 is the
fi rst fi gure in section 4). The tables are numbered in the same way,
bearing in mind that “Table” is used instead of “Fig.” (e.g.: Table 4-01
is the fi rst table in section 4). If a table occupies more than one page,
a letter is added after the progressive number (e.g.: “Table 4-01a”,
Table 4-01b”).

USER INSTRUCTIONS
4 ENERGY SAVING AND ENVIRONMENTAL
RESPECT
• Always try to run the dishwasher fully loaded.
Do not wash the dishes under a running tap. •
Use the• most suitable washing program for each type of load.
Do not pre-rinse. •
If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water system with a tempera-•
ture of up to 60°C (140°F).
When possible, • skip the drying cycle by opening the door after washing:
the air and the residue heat will dry the dishes to perfection.
4.1 Reducing the consumption of detergent
and respecting the environment
The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the environment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to save on

8 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE READ
AND UNDERSTOOD ALL THE WARNINGS IN CHAPTER 2, “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”.
Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as follows:
adjust the water softening system; •
add the regenerating salt; •
add the rinse-aid and detergent.•
EN
Rev 0.0 27
EN
USER INSTRUCTIONS
8.1 Using the water softening system
The amount of scale contained in the water (water hardness index) can cause
whitish staining on the dry dishes, which tend to become dull over time. The
dishwasher is equipped with an automatic softening system which uses a special regenerating salt to reduce the hardness of the water. The dishwasher is
factory set for water hardness level 3 (average hardness 41-60°dF – 24-31°dH
/ 23.6-35 gpg). When using water of medium hardness, the regenerating salt
container should be refi lled after approximately 20 washing cycles. The salt
container can hold approximately 1.7 Kg (3.75 lb) of salt in grains. Some models are equipped with an optical no-salt indicator. In these models, the cap of
the salt container contains a green fl oat which descends as the salt concentration in the water drops. When the green fl oat can no longer be seen, the
container must be topped up with regenerating salt. The container is situated
at the bottom of the dishwasher. After removing the lower rack, unscrew the
salt container cap (ref. A fi g. 8-01) by turning it counter clockwise and pour in
the salt using the funnel (ref. A fi g. 8-02) supplied with the dishwasher. Before
replacing the cap (ref. A fi g. 8-01), remove any salt residues from around the
opening.

SALT

Fig. 8-02
When using the dishwasher for the fi rst time, in addition to the salt it is also •
necessary to add one liter of water to the container.
Each time the salt container is refi lled, make sure that • the cap (ref. A fi g.
8-01) is securely closed. The mixture of water and detergent must never
penetrate the salt container, as this would compromise the operation of the
regeneration system. In the event of this occurring, the warranty will be invalidated.
Only use regenerating salt specially formulated for domestic dishwashers. If •
using salt tablets, do not fi ll the container completely.
• Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which, over time,
may damage the water softening system.
When necessary, refi ll the regenerating salt container • before starting the
washing program. This way, the excess saline solution will be immediately
removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank
may lead to corrosion.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO CONFUSE THE SALT AND DETERGENT
PACKAGES; ADDING DETERGENT TO THE SALT CONTAINER
WILL DAMAGE THE WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM.

8.2 Using the rinse-aid and detergent
dispensers
The detergent and rinse aid dispensers are situated on the inner part of the
door: the detergent dispenser (ref. A fi g. 8-03) is on the left, and the rinse-
aid dispenser (ref. B fi g. 8-03) is on the right.
