Using your dishwasher
Before first use
o Install the appliance as per the installation instructions contained
within this booklet.
o If you are filling the salt container for the first time, fill it with
tap water and then fill with specialist dishwasher salt. After this
you should set the water softener level.
o Fill the rinse aid dispenser and then set the rinse aid dosage.
Filling with dishwasher salt
IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially
designed for use in a dishwasher. If any other type of
salt is used in the appliance (in particular table salt),
it will damage the water softener.
o Ideally you should fill the water softener with salt and then run a
wash program. This will help to clear any salt that may have
overflowed from the water softener during the salt filling process
and therefore prevent the formation of rust.
10
o Open the door of the dishwasher and then remove the lower
basket. The basket should be empty when you remove it.
o Unscrew and remove the cap from the water softener.
o Fill the container with water.
IMPORTANT: It is only necessary to do this when you fill
the container with salt for the first time.
o Pour salt into the water softener, using the funnel that is
supplied with the appliance. You should add approximately 2 kg
of salt into the water softener.
o It is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of
the water softener, whilst you are filling it with salt. This does
not mean that the water softener is filled with the correct
amount of salt.
o Refit and fully tighten the water softener cap.
o The salt indicator light (E) will go out shortly
after you have filled the water softener with
salt. When the salt indicator (E) lights on the
control panel, then you should follow the
filling with dishwasher salt procedure again.
o It is recommended that you run a RAPID program, without any
dishes loaded into the dishwasher, after filling with salt to
remove any spilt or excess salt.
o IMPORTANT: You do not need to pour water into the
container when you subsequently fill the water softener
with salt.
11
Setting the water softener level
It is possible to regulate the amount of salt that the water softener will
release during a wash cycle. The water softener should be set to a
level that is appropriate for the hardness of your water (please refer to
the table below).
WATER HARDNESS
° dH ° fH Mmol/L
0-10 0-17 0-1.7 / 0 /
10-25 18-44 1.8-4.4 “-” 20 60
25-50 45-89 4.5-8.9 MED 40 40
>50 >89 >8.9 “+” 60 25
Selector

consumption

Usage
(cycles/2
kg)
o The default setting of the water softener is “-”.
o IMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets and live
in a medium or hard water area, then you should still fill the
water softener with salt.
o If you are using multifunctional tablets e.g. 3 in 1, you should fill
the salt container and set the adjuster to “-”. However, if the
hardness of your water is greater than 60°fH, set the adjuster to
“+”.
To alter the amount of salt that is released by the water softener, you
should:-
o Unscrew the cap from the water softener.
o There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it as shown in
the drawing above.
o Rotate the ring in an anticlockwise direction to the required
setting based on the hardness of the water being used.
o When the ring is in the correct position, replace the cap on the
water softener and fully tighten it.
12
Filling with rinse aid
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse and it helps
to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes.
These droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on
items after the wash program has completed.
o Your dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aid.
o The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the drop down door,
next to the detergent dispenser.
o To open the rinse aid dispenser, turn the cap (1) in an
anticlockwise direction to allow access to the dispenser.
o Pour in the rinse aid. Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, as
this could cause oversudsing when a wash program is selected.
Wipe away any rinse aid excess or spillages with a damp cloth.
o Replace the cap and turn it clockwise until it is fully tightened.
o You should refill the rinse aid dispenser
when the rinse aid indicator (D) lights on
the control panel.
o IMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets then
you should still fill the rinse aid dispenser.
13
Setting the rinse aid level
The amount of rinse aid that the dishwasher requires also depends on
the hardness of your water. You should experiment with the rinse aid
setting, until you find a level that gives the best results.
o Open the rinse aid dispenser by turning the cap (1) in an
anticlockwise direction.
o The amount of rinse aid used for each cycle can be regulated by
turning the dose adjustor (2), located beneath the dispenser
cap, with an appropriate screwdriver.
o There are 6 different settings to choose from. On the first wash
cycle, we would recommend that the rinse aid level is set to
number 3.
o If you get water spots and poor drying performance, then you
should turn the arrow anticlockwise and increase the setting to
the next number.
o You should continue to adjust the rinse aid level upwards until
you get no water spots.
o If you get cloudiness or streaking on your dishes, the rinse aid
level is set too high and it is causing foaming during the wash
cycle. Turn the arrow clockwise and lower the setting to the next
number.
14
Filling with dishwasher detergent
o The detergent dispenser must be refilled at the start of each
wash cycle.
o Always add the detergent just before starting the wash program,
otherwise the detergent could get damp and not dissolve
properly.
o Open the lid (3) that closes over the detergent dispenser by
pushing the release button (4). Place the detergent inside of the
dispenser.
o The section marked (5) in the diagram is for the main wash
cycle detergent. Only one detergent tablet should be placed in
the dispenser at any one time. If you are using detergent
powder or liquid, you should follow the detergent manufacturer’s
recommendations.
o The section marked (6) in the diagram can have separate
detergent placed in it for any wash cycle that has a pre-wash
element to it, however this is optional. This must be a liquid or
powder detergent, not another detergent tablet.
15
o After the detergent has been placed in the dispenser, close the
cover and press it down until it clicks into place.
o IMPORTANT: To enable the lid to close securely, remove any
excess detergent on the edges of the dispenser before closing it.
o At the beginning of a wash cycle the clip will open and the
tablet/powder/liquid will enter the dishwasher.
o IMPORTANT: Multifunctional tablets, such as 3 in 1, should not
be used for the RINSE, RAPID or SOAK programs.
Loading the upper basket
The upper basket is most suited to washing delicate and light
dishware, such as glasses, coffee and tea cups, saucers, plates, bowls
and shallow pans (that are not heavily soiled).
1) Cups
2) Glasses
3) Small plates
4) Saucers
5) Forks / knives
6) Small bowls
o You should position the dishes and cookware in such a way that
they are not moved by the spray of water during the wash cycle.
o Use the diagram above as a guide to the most appropriate way
to load the upper basket.
IMPORTANT: Care should be taken when placing long stemmed
glassware, such as champagne glasses in the upper basket. If they are
not positioned correctly, then there is a risk that they may topple over
when the upper basket is pushed in or pulled out.
