Safety information

At time of delivery

Check packaging and dishwasher immediately for signs of transport damage. If the appliance is damaged, do not put it into use but contact your supplier or customer service without delay.

Please dispose of packaging materials properly.

During installation

Site the dishwasher and connect it up in accordance with the installation instructions.

The dishwasher must not be connected to the electricity supply while installation is being carried out. Ensure that the domestic wiring is properly earthed.

The mains electricity supply must conform to the details shown on the dishwasher nameplate. Do not connect the dishwasher to the electricity supply via an extension cable.

Built-under and built-in appliances should always be installed under a continuous work surface which is attached to the adjacent cupboards, in order to ensure that the appliance is entirely stable.

After the appliance has been installed,the mains plug should still be easily accessible.

The plastic housing on the water inlet contains an electrically operated valve.The connecting wires are inside the inlet hose.Do not cut through this hose and do not immerse the plastic housing in water. During installation, the power supply cord must not be excessively or dangerously bent or flattened.

During normal use

The dishwasher must only be used by adults for the washing of household dishes and cooking utensils. This appliance cannot be installed outdoor, not even if the area in which it is installed is covered by a roof; it is also very dangerous to leave it exposed to the rain and elements.

Do not place any heavy objects or stand on the door when it is open. The appliance could tip forward. The water inside the dishwasher is not suitable for drinking.

Do not use solvents of any kind inside your dishwasher. They could cause an explosion danger. Open the door very carefully if the dishwasher is operating. There is a risk of water squirting out. Do not touch the heating element during or after a wash cycle.

Fundamental rules to follow when using the appliance:

-Never touch the dishwasher when barefoot or with wet hands or feet;

-We discourage the use of extension cords and multiple sockets;

-If the appliance is not operating properly or maintenance must be performed, disconnect the appliance from the power supply.

If your family includes children

The appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Keep detergents out of the reach of children, who must also be kept away from the dishwasher when it is open.

If a fault occurs

If the appliance malfunctions, turn off water supply to the appliance and disconnect the plug from the wall socket. Then, consult the section entitled, "Finding fault" .If you cannot solve the problem, contact a service center.

Only specialised personnel are authorised to make repairs.

If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacture, its service agent of similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

To maintain the EFFICIENCY and SAFETY of this appliance,we recommend:

-call only the Service Centers authorized by the manufacturer.

-always use original Spare Parts.

When disposing of old appliances

Appliances which are no longer being used must be made inoperable by cutting the power supply cord and removing the door lock.

Take the appliance to a designated waste disposal center.

Dangerous voltage

Warning

Children could get locked in the appliance (risk of suffocation) or get stuck in other positions. Therefore: Remove the mains plug, cut the mains wire and set aside. Damage the door lock so that the door can no longer be closed.

Installation

Positioning the appliance

Positioning the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.

Levelling the appliance

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2˚. If the appliance is level, it will help ensure proper performance.

	Cold water connection
	Connect the water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas)
	connector, making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see
	fig.A).
	Some models are fitted with an "Aquastop" water supply hose	fig.A
	(see fig.B) in which the small filter is already housed in the	fig.A

	threaded end.
	If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an ex-
	tended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the
	water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not
	taken, there is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and
	damage the appliance.	fig.B
		fig.B

Warning

The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using new hose-

sets and that old hose-sets should not be reused.

Anti-Flooding protection

If dishwasher is equipped with a system that stops the supply of water in the event of a problem with the water supply hose, or leaks within the unit, in order to prevent damage to your home. If for any reason the box containing the electrical components happens to get damaged, remove the plug for the appliance from the socket immediately. In order to guarantee that the anti-flooding feature operates properly, the "A" box with water supply hose must be attached to the water supply tap as shown in fig.B. No other type of connection is acceptable. The water supply hose must not, under any circumstances, be cut, as it contains electrical parts which are live. If the length of the hose is not adequate to make a proper connection, the hose must be replaced with one which is long enough. This hose is available upon request from specialised retailers and service center.

Drain hose connection

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. If necessary, fit a syphon trap (U-bend) with a connecting piece for the drain hose (fig.C). The free end of the hose must be at a height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.

cm100

cm40 fig.C

Attention:

The connecting piece for syphon trap (U-bend) must be solidly fastened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill outside the drain.

Electrical Connection

After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate (located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and that the electrical system is correct for the maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety requirement mandated by law).

If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug, replace the whole cable, rather than using adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.

Caution:

The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appliance

is installed as a built-in unit so that maintenance can be done safely.

How to fill the salt container and the rinse aid dispenser en

Salt

The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils.

The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water.

Loading the salt into the container

Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.

The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:

When the low salt indicator “” lights, you must fill the salt. Remove the lower rack and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container;

If you are filling the container for the first time, fill it with water;

Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2 kg of salt. It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.

Carefully screw the cap back on.

The salt container must be filled when the "low salt indicator" (located on the control panel) lights.

To prevent the formation of rust, load the salt just before

beginning a wash cycle.

Adjusting salt consumption

The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt consumption so that it remains at a minimum.

To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows:

Unscrew the cap from the salt container;

There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see figure to the side).

If necessary, rotate the ring in an anticlockwise direction from the " - " setting towards the " + " sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.

It is recommended that adjustments be made in accordance with the following table:

Rinse aid

This product makes dishes sparkle and helps them to dry without spotting. The dispenser is located on the inside panel of the door .

When the low rinse aid indicator “” lights , you must load rinse aid .

Loading the rinse aid

Regardless of the type of detergent dispenser installed on your appliance, you must proceed as indicated below when loading the rinse aid.

To open the dispenser, turn the " 1 " cap in an anti-clockwise direction and then pour in the rinse aid, making sure not to overfill. The amount of rinse aid used for each cycle can be regulated by turning the "2" dose adjustor, located beneath the "1" cap, with a screwdriver. There are 6 different settings; the normal dosage setting is 3.

1 2

Important

Proper dosage of the rinse aid improves drying.

If drops of water remain on the dishes or spotting occurs, the dosage adjustor should be turned to a higher setting.

If the dishes have white streaks, turn the dosage adjustor to a lower setting.

How to fill the detergent dispenser

Detergent

Detergent specifically intended for use with dishwashers must be used. The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the "Programme overview". The detergent dispenser is located on the inside panel of the door.

Not suitable for the dishwasher

What you should not put into the dishwasher

Cutlery and tableware manufactured in whole or part from wood.They become faded and unsightly in appearance.Furthermore,the adhesives that are used are not suitable for the temperature that occur inside the dishwasher.Delicate decorative glassware and vases,special antique or irreplaceable china. The decorative patterns on such items will not be dishwasher-proof.

Plastic objects that are not resistant to hot water, copper and pewter utensils are also not suitable. Decorative patterns printed or painted onto the surface of crockery, glasses, etc.,aluminium and silver items tend to become discoloured or faded if washed in the diswasher. Some types of glass can become opaque in appearance after they have been washed many times in a dishwasher. Highly absorbent materials, such as sponges and towels,should never be placed in the dishwasher.

Our recommendation

In future, only purchase table or kitchenware that has been confirmed as being dishwasher-proof.

Important

Dishes or cutlery that have been soiled by tobacco ash, wax,

Iubricating grease or paint, should not be put in the dishwasher.

Damage to glassware and other dishes

Possible causes

type of glass or manufacturing process chemical composition of detergent

water temperature and duration of dishwasher programme.

Suggested remedy

Use glassware or porcelain dishes that have been marked ‘dishwasher-proof’ by the manufacture.

Use a mild detergent that is described as ‘kind to dishes’. If necessary, seek further information from detergent manufacturers.

Select a programme with a low temperature and a short duration as possible.

To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher as soon as possible after the programme has ended.

Arranging crockery, glasses, etc. in the dishwasher en

Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove larger food particles to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which results in reduced performance.

If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to remove, we recommend that they are soaked before washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.

Pull out the rack to load the dishwasher.

How to use the lower rack

We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.

It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.

Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down. (see fig.D)

Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out. The silverware basket can be doubled (see fig.E) so that only one section may be used when the silverware load is light. This also makes space for additional pots and pans and it can also be placed in the upper rack.

Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Especially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at the front of the upper rack.(see fig.E)

Load for 12 Standard Settings

(for EN 50242 tests)

fig.D




	fig.E

Warning

Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the

basket with their points down or placed in a horizontal position.

How to use the upper rack

The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware, such as glasses, cups and saucers, 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.

The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs located on both sides of the rack itself (see fig.F).

Adjust the upper basket to the higher level and you have more space to accommodate those taller pans and trays in the bottom basket.

Shelf

Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelfnot against other items to be washed.

Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack. The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required (see fig.G).

Knife rack

The knife rack clips onto the side of the top basket, giving you the freedom to wash your large sharp knives separately and out of harm’s way (see fig.H).

Washing dishes

Programme selection

The most appropriate programme can be identified by comparing the type of crockery, cutlery, etc., as well as the amount and condition of food remains, with the details contained in the wash cycle table.The corresponding programme sequence, duration and consumption details are shown in the right half of the overview. For example:

Use the “Normal Wash”programme for dishes and utensils which have plenty of food remains stuck on hard.

Earn savings

If only a small number of dishes have been loaded into the dishwasher,selecting a programme that operates at the next lowest temperature will usually be sufficient.

Programme data

The stated programme data are based on standard operating conditions. The values can vary considerably according to:

different amounts of dishes

temperature of mains water supply

pressure of mains water supply

ambient temperature

fluctuations in mains voltage

machine-related factors (e.g. temperature, water volume,...)

Turning on the Appliance

Starting a wash cycle...

Make sure that the plug for the appliance is inserted into the wall socket.

Make sure that the water supply is turned on to full pressure.

Load the dishwasher .

Pour in the detergent.

Press the ON-OFF button, and the “ON-OFF” light will turn on.

Turn the knob located on the right of the control panel until the number or symbol for the cycle setting is aligued with the refrence mark (see the section entitled, program overview).If the knob rightly aligned with the refrence mark you want to choose, you must turn the knob to with the mark of “Reset” .Then back to first step.

After five seconds the “ON-OFF” light will turn off, the wash cycle will begin.

At the end of the wash cycle...

When the buzzer constantly beeps six times, the “ON-OFF” light will turn on and the cycle has finished. Turn off the appliance using the ON-OFF button, turn off the water supply and open the door of the dishwasher. Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.

Cancelling or modifying a wash cycle setting...

A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it has been running for a short time. Otherwise, the detergent may have already been used, and the appliance may have already drained the wash water. If this is the case, the detergent dispenser must be refilled (see the paragraph entitled, "Loading the Detergent").

Rotate the knob to the mark of “Reset”,the appliance will take a few minute drain phase.During this process, you can select right programme.

Wash Cycle Adjustment Buttons

"ECO" Button

This button (see "Close-up View - Control Panel", letter "A" ) is used for normal dirty dishes, pots and pans.

“3 IN 1” Button

When using "3 IN 1"combination products, the rinse-aid and salt lights are no longer useful. It may be helpful therefore to switch the rinse aid off (please note that only some dishwashers have this facility )and selecting the lowest possible setting for water hardness.

If you decide to switch to the use of a standard detergent system we advise that you: 1:Refill both the salt and rinse aid compartments.

2:Switch the waterhardness setting to the highest possible position and run for three normal cycles without a load. 3:Readjust the waterhardness setting again according to the conditions for your region.

Half load Button

This button (see "Close-up View - Control Panel", letter "C" ) makes it possible to wash dishes using only the upper rack if there are not enough dishes for a full load. This will allow you to save on water and electricity.

It can be used before setting any of the wash cycles. Please keep in mind that the amount of detergent should also be cut in half.

Notice

Do not place the tablets in the tub or the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent doser.
