	water mains using new hose-sets and
	that old hose-sets should not be reused.

Anti-Flooding protection

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 electrical components happens to get damaged, turn off the power supply and 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 approved 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 electrical 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.

How to fill the salt	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 “1” lights, you must fill the salt.

	Remove the lower rack and then unscrew and remove the cap
	from the salt container;	Sel
	If you are filling the container for the first time, fill it with water;	Sel

	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.	1
	Carefully screw the cap back on.	1

Important

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:

How to fill rinse aid	en

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 “H” 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 "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.

2 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.

	How to fill the detergent dispenser
	Detergent	5
	Detergent specifically intended for use with dishwashers must be used.	5

Not suitable for the dishwasher	en

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

Normal daily load

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.

fig.D

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 not be doubled (see fig.E).

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).
