Installation
Positioning the appliance
Positioning the appliance in the desired location. The back should r es t against the wall behind it, and the
sides , along the adja cent ca binet s or wall. The d ish wash er is equ ipp ed wi th w ater supp ly an d dr ain
hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.
Levelling the appliance
Once the applia nce is pos itioned , adj ust t he feet (sc rewing th em in or out ) to adj ust the dis hwas her,
making it level. In any case, the appliance s hould not be inclined more than 2˚. If the appliance is level, it
will help ensure proper performance.
Cold wat er connectio n
Connect the water suppl y hose to a t hr eaded 3 / 4 ( gas ) c onnect or,
making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.A).
Some models are fit ted with an "Aqua st op" water s upply hose
(see fig.B) in which the small filter is already housed in the
threaded end.
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended per iod of t im e, let the wat er run to mak e sure t hat t he
water is c lea r a nd free of i m purities. If this p r eca u t ion is not taken,
there is a risk that the water inle t can get bloc ke d and damage
the appliance.
fig.A
fig.B
Warning
The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using new hosesets and that old hose-sets should not be reused.
Anti-Flooding protection (for some models)
The 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 e lectri cal c ompon ents ha ppen s to get da mage d, rem ove the plu g f or the appl iance 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 su pply tap as shown in fig.B. No other type of con nection is acceptab le.
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.
4
Drain hose co nnect ion
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 m us t be at a heig ht between 40 and 100 cm and must not
be immerse d i n w at e r.
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 v alues for the current in the home correspond to those
on the rat ing plate ( locate d on the stainl ess steel inne r door of the ap plianc e) and that t he elec tric al
system is correc t f or the max imum v olt age on t he r ating plate, insert the p lug int o 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
Salt
The hardness of the water varies f rom place to plac e. If hard water is use d in t he dishw asher , 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 “1” 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 nor m al for a s m all am ount
of water to come out of the salt container.
Carefully screw the cap back on.
1
Important
To prevent the formation of rust, load the salt just before beginning a
wash cycle.
7
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 t he l ev el of s alt
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, rotat e 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:

How to fill rinse aid
Rinse aid
This product makes dishes sparkle and helps them to dry without
spotting. The dispens er is loc ated on the inside panel of the door .
When the low rinse aid indicator “H” lights, you must load rinse aid .
Loading the rinse aid
Regardless of the type of detergent dispenser installed on your
appliance, you m ust proc eed as indic ated below when load ing t he ri nse
aid.
To open the dispenser, turn the "2" 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 " 3"
dose adjustor, located beneath the "2" cap, with a screwdriver. There
are 6 different settings; the normal dosage setting is 3.
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 th e d o sage adj u sto r to a lo wer setti ng.

inside the dishwasher.Delicate decorative glassware and vases, special antique or irreplac eable china.
The decorative patterns on such items will not be dishwasher-proof.
Plastic obj ects tha t are not resis tan t to h ot wat er , copp er a nd p ewter ut ens ils are al so no t sui tab le.
Decorative patterns printed or paint ed onto t he s urface of crocker y, glas ses, etc.,aluminium and silver
items tend t o bec om e disc olour ed or faded if was hed in the diswasher. Some types of glass can become
opaque in app ear ance a fter t hey have b een wa shed many times in a di shwa sher . Highl y absorb ent
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 glassw are 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 por celain dishes that have been marked ‘dishwa sher -proof ’ b y the manufacture.
Use a mild detergent that is described as ‘kind to dishes’. If necessary, seek further inform ation 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.
10
Arranging crockery, glasses, etc. in the dishwasher
Before placing t he d ish es i n t he dish wash er, r em ove lar ger food particles to pr eve nt t he 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 silve rwar e bas ket c an be doubl ed (s ee fig. E) s o that
only one section may b e use d when the silverware load is
light. This also makes space for additional po ts and pans
and it can also be placed in the upper rack.

How to keep your dishwasher in shape
After Every Wash
After ever y wash , turn off the water supply the appli ance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moist ure
and odors are not trapped inside.
Remove the plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.
No solvent s or Abrasive Clean in g P rodu cts
To clean the exte rior and rubb er pa rt s of th e d ishw ash er, do not use solv ents or abra siv e cle anin g
products. Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little
while vinegar, or cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be m ov ed, tr y t o k eep i t in a vertic al po s it ion. I f absolutely n ec es s ar y , it c an be
positioned on its back.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals.
Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
The door should not be left in the open position since this could present a tripping hazard.
When You Go on Holiday
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and
then rem ove the plu g fr om the s ocket , turn of f the wate r s upply and l eave the door of the appl ia nce
slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.

General inf o rmatio n
Measures must be taken to ensure that built-under and built-in units that are subsequently re-sited
as free-standing appliances cannot topple over. This can be achieved by bolting the dishwasher to
the wall or fitting it under a continuous work surface which is screwed to the adjacent cupboards.
