Disposal
If the appliance breaks down or stops working properly, switch it off, turn off the water supply and do not tamper with it. Repair work should only be carried out by an approved service agent and only genuine spare parts should be fitted. Any failure to follow the above advice may have serious consequences for the safety of the appliance.
INSTALLATION
(Technical notes)
After unpacking, adjust the height of the dishwasher. For the dishwasher to work correctly it must be level. Adjust the feet so that the machine does not tilt by more than 2 degrees.
If it you need to move the machine after removing the packaging, do not try to lift it by the bottom of the door. Follow the instructions in the figure below. Open the door slightly and lift the machine by holding on the top.
The dishwasher has been made from materials which can be recycled so that it can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly way.
If you wish to dispose of an old dishwasher be careful to remove the door to eliminate the risk of children becoming trapped inside it.
Electrical connection
This appliance complies with international safety standards, and is fitted with a 3 pin plug with earth connection to ensure complete earthing of the product.
Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply it is important to ensure:
1. that the supply socket is properly
earthed;
2. that your electricity supply is capable of
meeting the consumption requirements listed on the rating plate of your appliance.
IMPORTANT When the appliance is located on a carpet floor, attention must be paid to ensure that there is no obstruction to the bottom vents.
Make sure that the plug on the appliance remains accessible after installation.
WARNING! Ensure that your product is properly earthed.
In the absence of adequate earthing you will notice that when touching the metal parts of your appliance an electrical dispersion can be felt, due to the presence of a radio interference suppressor.
Manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage due to non-earthing of the machine.
Appliance complies with European Directives 73/23/EEC and 89/336/EEC, replaced by 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC, and subsequent amendments.

Water connection
IMPORTANT The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets. The old hose-sets should not be reused.
The inlet and drain hoses can be directed to left or right.
IMPORTANT The dishwasher can be connected to either cold or hot water, as long as it is no hotter than 60 °C.
Water pressure must be between 80 kPa and 800 kPa. If the pressure is below the minimum consult our service department for advice.
The inlet hose must be connected to a tap so that the water supply can be cut off when the machine is not in use
(fig. 1 B).
The dishwasher is fitted with 3/4" threaded connector (fig. 2).
Connect inlet hose “A” to water tap “B” with a 3/4" attachment making sure that it has been properly tightened.
1
2
If it is necessary, the inlet pipe can be lengthened up to 2,5 m. The extension pipe is available from the After Sales Service Centre.
If limescale deposits or sand are present in the water, it is advisable to obtain the appropriate filter, art. 9226085, from the After Sales Service Centre (fig. 3). The filter “D” must be inserted between the tap “B” and the inlet hose “A”, remembering to fit the washer “C”.
If the dishwasher is connected to new pipes or to pipes which have not been in use for a long time run water through for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. In this way no deposits of sand or rust will clog up the water inflow filter.

5
Connecting the outlet hose
The outlet hose should disharge into a standpipe, making sure that there are no kinks (fig. 4).
The standpipe must be at least 40 cm above floor level and it must have an internal diameter of at least 4 cm.
It is advisable to fit an anti-odour air trap (fig. 4X).
If necessary the outlet hose can be extended up to 2,5 m, provided that it is kept at a maximum height of 85 cm above floor level. The extension pipe is available from the After Sales Service Centre.
4
The hose can be hooked over the side of the sink, but it must not be immersed in water, in order to prevent water from being syphoned back to the machine when this is in operation (fig. 4Y).
When installing the appliance under a worktop the hose pipe clamp must be attached to the wall in the highest possible position under the worktop (fig. 4Z).
Check that there are no kinks in the inlet and outlet hoses.

WATER SOFTENER UNIT
Depending on the source of the supply, water contains varying amounts of limestone and minerals which are deposited on the dishes leaving whitish stains and marks. The higher the level of these minerals present in the water, the harder the water is. The dishwasher is fitted with a water softener unit which, through the use of special regenerating salt, supplies softened water for washing the dishes. The degree of hardness of your water can be obtained from your water supply company.
Regulating the water softener
The softener unit can treat water with a hardness of up to 90°fH (French grading) or 50°dH (German grading) through 6 different settings.
The table below lists different degrees of water hardness with the corresponding setting for the softener unit.

LOADING THE SALT
On the bottom of the machine there is a container for the salt for regenerating the softener.
It is important to use only a salt that is specifically designed for dishwasher. Other types of salt contain small quantities of insoluble particles which over a long period of time may affect and deteriorate the softener performance.
To add salt, unscrew the cap of the con­tainer on the bottom and then refill the container.
During this operation a little water will overflow; but keep adding salt until the container is full. When the container is full, clean the thread of salt residue and retighten the tap.
After loading the salt, it is recommended running a complete washing cycle, or COLD RINSE programme. The salt dispenser has a capacity of between 1.5 and 1.8 kg and, for efficient use of the appliance, it should be refilled from time to time according to the regulation of the water softener unit.
IMPORTANT
(Only for first start up) When the appliance is used for the first time, after completely filling the salt container, it is necessary to add water until the container overflows.
Salt loading indicator
This model is provided with an indicator light on the control panel which will light up when it is necessary to reload the salt container.
IMPORTANT The appearance of white stains on dishes is generally an important sign that the salt container needs filling.

ADJUSTMENT OF THE UPPER BASKET
If 27 cm to 31 cm plates are normally used, load them onto the lower basket after the upper basket has been placed in its upper position and proceed as detailed below:
1. Turn the front stops “A” outwards;
2. Take out the basket and remount it in the
upper position;
3. Replace the blocks “A” in their original position.
Dishes that are bigger than 20 cm in diameter can no longer be loaded onto the upper basket and the mobile supports cannot be used when the basket is in the upper position.

LOADING DISHES
A standard daily load is represented in
figs. 1, 2 and 3.
Using the upper basket
The upper basket is provided with mobile racks hooked to the sides of the basket, which can be regulated into two positions: upright and lowered.
In the lowered position the racks may be used for such items as: tea and coffee cups, kitchen knives and ladles. Also glasses with stems may be safely hung on the ends of the racks. Glasses, cups, saucers and dessert plates may be loaded under the racks.
In the upright position the racks allow you to load dinner plates and soup plates. Plates should be loaded vertically with the underside of the plate towards the back of the dishwasher with a space between each plate to allow water to pass freely.
It is advisable that the plates loaded into the dishwasher together be the same size in order to utilize total basket capacity.
Plates may be loaded in a single row or on both rows.
It is advisable to load large plates (approx. 27 or more cm) slightly tilted towards the rear to facilitate introduction of the basket into the machine.
Salad bowls and plastic bowls may also be loaded on the upper basket. It is advisable to block these in place so that the jets of water do not make them overturn.

LOADING THE DETERGENT
The detergent
IMPORTANT It is essential to use a detergent that is specifically designed for dishwashers either in powder, liquid or tablet form.
Unsuitable detergents (like those for washing up by hand) do not contain the proper ingredients for use in a dishwasher, and stop the dishwasher from working correctly.
Filling the detergent container
The detergent container is inside the door (fig. A “2”). If the lid of the container is closed, press the button (A) to open. At the end of every wash cycle the lid is always open and ready for the next time the dishwasher is used.
WARNING! When loading the lower basket, please ensure that the plates or others do not obstruct the detergent dispenser.
B
After pouring the detergent into the container, close the lid, firstly pushing (1) and then pressing on it (2) until you hear the click.
Since not all detergents are the same the instructions on the boxes of detergent can vary. We should just like to remind users that too little detergent does not clean the dishes properly whilst too much detergent will not produce better results and is also a waste.
The amount of detergent to be used varies according to how dirty the dishes are and on the type of dishes to be washed. We advise using 20÷30 g of detergent in the wash section of detergent compartment (B).
A
IMPORTANT Do not use an excessive amount of detergent and help limit damage to the environment at the same time.
14
TYPES OF DETERGENT
Detergent tablets
Detergent tablets of different manufacturers dissolve at different speeds, for this reason, during short programmes, some detergent tablets may be not fully effective, because they are not completely dissolved. If these products are used, is recommended to choose longer programmes to guarantee the complete use of the detergent.
IMPORTANT To get satisfactory washing results, the tablets MUST be placed in the wash section of the detergent container and NOT directly in the tub.
Concentrated detergents
The concentrated detergents, with reduced alkalinity and with natural enzymes, in conjunction with 50°C wash programmes, have a smaller impact on the environment and they protect the dishes and the dishwasher. The 50°C wash programmes purposely exploit the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes, allowing therefore, with the use of the concentrated detergents, to achieve the same results of the 65°C programmes but at a lower temperature.
Combined detergents
The detergents that also contain the rinse aid must be placed in the wash section of the detergent container. The rinse aid container must be empty (if it is not empty, set the rinse aid regulator to lowest position before using combined detergents).
If when using this type of product, you don't get satisfactory washing results, please contact the detergent manufacturer.
In certain circumstances use of combined detergents can cause:
limescale deposits on dishes or in the dishwasher;
a reduction in washing and drying performance.
IMPORTANT Any problems which arise as a direct result of the use of these products are not covered by our warranty.
Please note that using the "ALL in 1" combined detergents, the rinse aid and salt indicator lights (only used on selected models) are superfluous, so you must ignore the lights.
If washing and/or drying problems occur, we recommend you return to use traditional separate products (salt, detergent and rinse agent). This will ensure that the water softener in the dishwasher operates correctly.
In this case, we recommends that you:
refill both the salt and rinse aid container;
run one normal washing cycle without a
load.
"ALL in 1" combined detergents
If you are planning to use “ALL in 1” (“3 in 1 “/ “4 in 1”/ “5 in 1”, etc.) combined detergents i.e. those with built in salt and/or rinse agent, we would advise the following:
read carefully and follow the manufacturer’s instructions given on the packaging;
the effectiveness of detergents containing the built in water softener/salt depends on the hardness of your water supply. Check that the hardness of your water supply is within the effective range given on the detergent packaging.
Please note that on return to the use of conventional salt, a number of cycles will be required before the system becomes fully efficient again.
WARNING! Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extre­mely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and keep children away from the dishwa­sher when the door is open. Check that the detergent receptacle is empty after completion of the wash cycle.
15
LOADING THE RINSE AID
The rinse aid
The rinse aid, which is automatically released during the last rinsing cycle, helps the dishes to dry quickly and prevents spots and stains forming.
Filling the rinse aid container
The rinse aid container can be found to the left of the detergent container (fig. A "3"). To open the lid, push the reference mark and, in the same time, pull the tab of opening. It is always advisable to use rinse aid that is specifically designed for dishwasher. Check the rinse aid level through the indicator eye (C) which is located on the dispenser.
FULL EMPTY
dark light
Regulating the rinse aid from 1 to 6
The regulator (D) is placed under the lid and can be turned using a coin. The recommended position is 4. The limestone content of the water considerably affects the formation of limescale and the drying performance. It is therefore important to regulate the quantity of rinse aid to achieve good washing results. If, after the wash, streaks occur on the dishes, decrease the amount by one position. If whitish spots occur, increase the amount by one position.

16
CLEANING THE FILTERS
The filter system (fig.A “4”) consists of:
a central container that traps the larger particles;
a flat gauze that continuously filters the wash water;
a micro filter, located beneath the gauze, that traps the tiniest particles ensuring a perfect rinse.
To achieve excellent results every time, the filters should be checked and cleaned after each wash.
To remove the filter unit, simply turn the handle anticlockwise (fig. 1).
1
For ease of cleaning, the central container is removable (fig. 2).
Remove the gauze filter (fig.3) and wash the whole unit under a jet of water. If necessary a small brush can be used.
With the Self-cleaning Micro filter, maintenance is reduced and the filter unit need only be checked every two weeks. Nevertheless, after each wash it is advisable to check that the central container and the gauze filter are not clogged.
WARNING! After cleaning the filters, make sure that they are correctly reassembled and that the gauze filter is properly positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher.
Make sure that the filter is screwed back, clockwise, into the gauze, as poor seating of the filter unit could have an adverse effect on the efficiency of the appliance.
IMPORTANT Never use the dishwasher without the filters.

PRATICAL HINTS
How to make savings
How to get really good wash results
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove any remaining food (bones, shells, pieces of meat or vegetables, coffee grounds, skin of fruit, cigarette ash, tooth picks etc. to avoid blocking the filters, water outlet and washing arm nozzles.
Try not to rinse the dishes before loading them into the dishwasher.
If saucepans and oven dishes are encrusted with the remains of burnt or roast food, it is advisable to leave them to soak before washing.
Place the dishes face downwards.
Try to place the dishes in such a way
that they are not touching one another. If they are loaded properly you will get better results.
After loading the dishes check that the washing arms can rotate freely.
Pans and other dishes that have particularly stubborn food particles or remnants of burnt food should be left to soak in water with dishwasher detergent.
To wash silver properly:
a) rinse the silver immediately after
use, especially if it has been used for mayonnaise, eggs, fish etc.;
b) do not sprinkle detergent onto it; c) keep it separate from other metals.
If you want the dishwasher to give a complete wash, place the dishes in the dishwasher at the end of each meal and if necessary turn on the COLD RINSE cycle to soften the food remains and remove bigger particles of food from the new load of dishes. When the dishwasher is full start the complete wash cycle programme.
If the dishes are not very dirty or if the baskets are not very full select an ECONOMY programme, following the instructions in the program list.
What not to wash
It should be remembered that not all dishes are suitable for washing in a dishwasher.We advise against using the dishwasher to wash items in thermoplastic, cutlery with wooden or plastic handles, saucepans with wooden handles, items in aluminium, crystal, leaded glass unless otherwise stated.
Certain decorations may fade. It is therefore a good idea before loading the whole batch to wash just one of the items first so as to be sure that others like it will not fade.
It is a good idea not to put silver cutlery with non-stainless steel handles into the dishwasher as there could be a chemical reaction between them.
IMPORTANT When buying new crockery or cutlery always make sure that they are suitable for washing in a dishwasher.
Useful hints
In order to avoid any dripping from the top rack, remove the lower rack first.
If the dishes are to be left in the machine for some time, leave the door ajar, to let some air circulate and to improve the drying performance.
18
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
To clean the dishwasher outside, do not use solvents (degreasing action) neither abrasives, but only a cloth soaked with water.
The dishwasher does not require special maintenance, because the tank is self-cleaning.
Regularly wipe the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove any food remains or rinse aid.
It is advisable to remove limestone deposits or dirt periodically, by doing an empty wash; pour a glass of vinegar on the bottom of the tank and select the light wash.
If, in spite of the routine cleaning of the filters, you notice that the dishes or pans are not properly washed or rinsed, check that all the spray heads on the rotor arms (fig. A “5”) are clear.
If they are blocked, clean them in the following way:
1. to remove the upper rotor arm, turn it until it lines up with the stop marked by the arrow (fig. 1). Push it upwards (fig. 1b) and, keeping it pushed in, unscrew it in a clockwise direction
(to reassemble it repeat the same operation, but turn it anticlockwise).
The lower rotor arm can be removed simply by pulling it upwards (fig. 2);
2. wash the rotor arms under a jet of water to clear any blockage in the spray heads;
3. when you have finished, refit the rotor arms in the same position, remembering to re-align the arrow and screw into position.

WHEN CYCLE IS FINISHED
After every wash it is essential to turn off water supply and to switch off the machine by pressing the On/Off button to the off position.
If the machine is not going to be used for some time, it is advisable to follow these rules:
1. do an empty wash with detergent in order
to clean the machine of any deposits;
2. pull out the electric plug;
3. turn off the water tap;
4. fill the rinse aid container;
Both the door lining and the tank lining are in stainless steel; however, should spots caused by oxidation occur, this is probably due to a high level of iron salts presents in the water.
The spots can be removed with a mild abrasive agent; never use chlorine based materials, steel wool, etc.
5. Ieave the door ajar;
6. keep the inside of the machine clean;
7. If the machine is left in places where the
temperature is below 0°C any water left inside the pipes may freeze. Wait until the temperature rises above zero and then wait for about 24 hours before starting up the dishwasher.

If there is any break in the power supply while the dishwasher is operating, a special memory stores the selected programme and, when the power is restored, it continues where it left off.
"SUPER ECO" button
This button provides an energy and time saving of 25% on average (according to the select cycle) reducing the wash water temperature and the drying time during the final rinse. This programme is recommended for light soil washes, and for slightly wet dishes that are not fully dry, & improved drying results. We advise you to leave the door of the Dishwasher half-open at the end of the cycle, to allow for a natural circulation of air inside the dishwasher.
"ALL in 1" button
This option optimises the use of "ALL in 1" ("3 in 1"/"4 in 1"/"5 in 1", ecc.) combined detergents. By pressing this button, the selected washing programme is modified to get best performance from combined detergents (furthermore, the salt aid shortage light is de-activated).
WARNING! Once selected, this option keeps being on (light on) also for next washing cycles and it can be de-activate (light off) only by pressing the button once again.
IMPORTANT When this option is selected, the "RAPID" cycle is 10 minutes longer.
"DELAY START" button
The dishwasher start time can be set with this button, delaying the start by 3, 6 or 9 hours.
Programme end
A 5 second alarm will sound (if not muted) 3 times at 30 second intervals to signal that the programme has ended. The programme end indicator light will turn on, while all the others indicator lights will turn off. Dishes can now be removed and the dishwasher turned off by pressing the "ON/OFF" button or dishes can be loaded for new cycle
Proceed as follows to set a delayed start:
Press the "DELAY START" button (each
time the button is pressed the start will be delayed by 3, 6 or 9 hours respectively and the corresponding time indicator light will illuminate).
To start the countdown, press the
"START" button (the selected programme indicator light will come on, while the set time indicator light will start to flash).
22
If a 9 hour delay is set, countdown will be displayed by the 6h indicator light after 3 hours and the 3h indicator light after 6 hours.
2. Keep the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button pressed for at least 15 seconds (during this time, 2 audible signals will sound).
At the end of the last 3 hours (at the end of countdown) the 3h indicator light will stop flashing and remain on to indicate the washing phase and the programme will start automatically.
If countdown has not ended, whereby the programme has not yet started, it is possible to change or cancel the delayed start and select another programme or to select/deselect the option button, proceeding as follows:
Hold the "RESET" button down for at least 5 seconds. The programme indicator lights will flash and some audible signals will sound.
The delayed start and the selected programme will be cancelled.
Press the "DELAY START" button to set another delayed start time (the corresponding indicator light will turn on).
A new programme can be set after a delayed time has been changed or cancelled or an option button can be selected or deselected.
3. Release the button when the second audible signal sounds (3 "PROGRAMME SELECTION" indicator lights will come on).
4. Press the same button again: the 3 indicator lights (which indicate that the alarm is activated) will start flashing (to indicate that the alarm is off).
5. Turn off the dishwasher by pressing the "ON/OFF" button to confirm the new
setting.
To turn the alarm on again, follow the same procedure.
Fault signals

After checking to make sure the water inlet hose tap is open, that the drain hose is not bent and that the siphon or filters are not clogged, set the selected programme again.
If the anomaly persists, contact Customer Service Department.

The alarm for the programme end may be muted as follows:
IMPORTANT The dishwasher must be ALWAYS off before start this procedure.
1. Hold down the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button and at the same
time switch on the dishwasher by pressing the "ON/OFF" button (a brief audible signal will sound).

N.B.: Should any of the situations occur and should the machine give a bad wash performance, it is necessary to remove the deposits from the dishes by hand since the final drying cycle hardens the deposits which a second wash in the machine would not be able to remove.
If the malfunction continues contact a Service Centre quoting the serial number of the dishwasher. This is found on the plaque on the inside of the dishwasher door at the top or on the guarantee. This information will make it possible to take more effective action more quickly.
