Salt
GB
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 Softener
Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers. The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:
- 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 intro­ duce 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.
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 anti-clockwise direction from the "-" setting towards the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.
The salt container should be refilled after approximately 10-12 washers
To prevent the formation of rust, load the salt just be­fore beginning a wash cycle.
It is recommended that adjustments be made in accordance with the following schema:

Detergent and Rinse Aid
GB
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 "Wash Cycle Table". The detergent dispenser is located on the inside panel the door.
Loading the detergent
To open the "A" cover on the dispenser, press the "B" button. The detergent for the wash cycle should be poured into the "C" compartment. After the detergent has been placed in the dispenser, close the cover and press down until it clicks in place.
B
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 and should be filled after every 80 wash cycles.
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 "C" 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 "F" dose adjustor ,located beneath the "C" 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 the dosage adjustor to a lower setting.

Notice: To facilitate closing the cover, remove any ex­cess detergent on the edges of the dispenser.

Loading the Dishwasher
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove the 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 be allowed to soak before they are washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles. Pull out the rack to facilitate loading the dishwasher.
How to Use the Lower Rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on the bottom rack: pots, 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.
- Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.
- Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery basket with the handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons should be placed individually into the appropriate slots. Espe­ cially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at the front of the upper rack( see Fig.A).
How to Use the Upper Rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware, such as glasses, coffee and tea cups and saucers, as well as 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 the sides of the rack itself (see fig.B).

Starting the Appliance
GB
Starting a wash cycle
After having completed all of the installation steps in the preced­ing paragraphs, turn on the water to the unit, partially open the door of the dishwasher, and press the ON-OFF button "A" lo­cated on the control panel. The "B" indicator light will come on. At this point, the appliance is on and ready to be programmed.
Setting and Starting a wash Cycle
Choose the desired cycle by pressing the cycle selection button "C". Each time it is pressed, one of the cycle indicator lights "D" will come on in succession. Choose the wash cycle you feel is most appropriate for the type of dishes that need washing (consult the wash cycle table con­tained in this manual, especially when first using the appliance). Close the door and the indicator light “D” will begin to blink indi­cating that the wash cycle has begun and cannot be modified. If necessary, read the paragraph entitled, "Cancelling or modifying a cycle while underway". The end of the cycle will be signalled by six acoustic sound, and the indicator light "D" will turn off.
If you forget to load some of the dishes...
The wash cycle can be interrupted by opening the door carefully (in order to avoid being sprayed by hot water). Acoustic sound will be heard and all cycle indicator lights will flash. When the door is closed again, the cycle will automatically restart at the point where it left off.
At the end of the wash cycle...
The end of the cycle will be indicated by six acoustic signal,at the same time the "D" indicator light will turn off. Open the door, turn off the appliance using the ON-OFF switch and turn off the water supply to the unit. Wait a few minutes before removing the dishes so as to avoid handling them while still hot (when they are more susceptible to breakage) and to get better drying results.
Cancelling or modifying a cycle while underway...
Premise: A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it has only 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").
To change the cycle currently underway, open the door, press the ON-OFF button "A" to turn the machine off and then open the door.
To set a new wash cycle, follow the instructions contained in the paragraph entitled, "Starting a Wash Cycle".

Energy Saving Tips
GB
-Choose the right wash cycle: the choice of cycle depends on the type of dishware, cookware and utensils being washed and how dirty they are.
-Use the right amount of detergent: if you use too much detergent, the result will not be cleaner dishes, but, rather, a greater nega­tive impact on the environment.
How to keep Your Dishwasher in Shape
After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.
Remove the plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not take risks.
No solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning 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 white vinegar, or clean­ing product made specifically for dishwashers.
-There is no advantage in rinsing dishes, cookware and utensils before placing them in the dishwasher.
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 remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can 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.
Cleaning and Special Maintenance
Filter Assembly
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned frequently. The filter efficiently removes food residue from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason ,it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the "A" semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull on the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter as­sembly (made up of the "A" semicircular filter and the "B" fine filter) should be cleaned at least once a week. To clean the filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush .Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figures below and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat and pressing downward.
The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filters may re­duce level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
Cleaning the Spray Arms
It may happen that food particle become encrusted on the spray arms and block the holes. Check the spray arms periodically and clean them when needed.
A
B
Cleaning the Water Inlet Filter
Periodically clean the water inlet filter (see figure) located on the outlet of the water supply tap. After turning off the water tap, unscrew the end of the water sup­ply hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under running water. Then, return the filter to its place and tighten the water supply hose back into position.

Installation
GB
Positioning the Appliance
Position 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 (screw 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 cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4(gas) connector, inserting the small filter supplied with the dishwasher and making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see Fig.1). If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended 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.
Attention:
The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to the
wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to
spill outside the drain.
