How to load your dishes

Before washing, a few small steps can help you get a better wash and keep your dishwasher for longer. Remove the largest scraps of food left over on your plates, soak saucepans and frying pans with tough incrustations. After loading your dishes, make sure the blades on the sprayer arm turn well

First of all.

Before placing the dishes in the racks, remove the largest scraps of food left over on your plates, you will thus avoid blocking the filter, which would reduce the efficacy of the wash. If the saucepans and frying pans are very dirty, allow them to soak before being washed. To make it easier to load your dishes, pull the racks out.

What goes into the lower rack?

We recommend you place the most difficult dishes to wash into the lower rack: saucepans, lids, soup dishes and plates (a load example is shown in the photo).

 Serving dishes and large

lids: place them on the

sides of the rack.

 Saucepans, salad bowls:

must always be placed upside down

 Very deep dishes: place

them obliquely, thus allowing water to run down them and cleaning them better

 Glasses and cups: posi-

tion them as indicated in the figure.

What goes into the upper rack?

Place delicate and lightweight dishes in the upper rack: glasses, tea cups and coffee cups, saucers - but plates too - shallow salad bowls, slightly dirty frying pans and shallow pans. Position light weight dishes in such a way as to avoid their being moved by the spray of water.

After loading the dishes, remember to check that the blades on the sprayer arms can turn freely without hitting against any dishes.

How to adjust the top rack.

The upper rack can be set in high or low position to enable you to organise your dishes effortlessly.

Fig.F

Loading examples for the upper rack

Loading examples for the lower rack

Place the cutlery with the handles at the bottom; if the basket is the one with side inserts, then insert the tea spoons one by one into the slots (see figure A). Knives and other utensils with sharp point must be loaded in the basket with their point down or placed in a horizontal position in the upper basket equipped with one or two tip up compartments. Position all cutlery items so that they don't touch. It is best if you place longer utensils horizontally at the front of the upper rack. After loading the dishes, remember to check that the blades on the sprayer arms can turn freely without hitting against any dishes

Open the rail stop flaps and pull the rack out completely. Now place it in high or low position, then slide it along the guide rails until the front wheels also go in. Now close the rail stop flaps. Follow the sequence of actions illustrated in figure "F".

Starting the dishwasher

Ready, steady, go!

You have loaded your dishes and you now have to set the wash cycle. It takes just one minute to learn how

First of all.

Turn on the water tap completely and press ON-OFF button "A". you will hear a short beep and indicator light "B" lights up. Now the appliance is on and awaiting instructions.

Selecting the wash cycle.

Select the wash cycle by pressing button "P". Each time you press the button, a beep will sound and indicator lights "E" will light up in sequence: choose the cycle you deem most suited to the type of dishes to be washed (take a look at page 6, where you will find the wash cycle table). If the appliance door is shut, press the Start button "R" and you will hear a beep; the cycle will start up within a few seconds.

The dishwasher informs you.

Your dishwasher is fitted with indicator lights (G) which light up to indicate the cycle phase under way. Here are the symbols corresponding to each cycle phase:

celled. You are now free to re-set the correct wash cycle.

You've left out a dish?

Well, it happens to everyone. Interrupt the wash cycle by pressing the ON-OFF button, insert the dish you had forgotten and press the ON-OFF button again. The cycle will start up from where you interrupted it.

Finished?

The end of the wash cycle is indicated by two short beeps and the flashing of the drying phase indicator light.

Warning:

Turn the appliance off by pressing button “A”, unplug the appliance from the electricity socket to cut off the power supply; the power supply cable should consequently be easily accessible.

• Turn off the water tap.

• Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishes: they are very hot! If you wait a little while, they dry better thanks to the steam.

• Empty the lower rack

first.

There's been a power failure? Have you opened the dishwasher door?

The wash cycle stops and then restarts when the electricity comes back on or when you shut the door. Everything is under control!

Modifying a wash cycle in progress.

But if you have chosen the wrong cycle, not to worry! You can modify the wash cycle in progress, if it has only just started. Keep the RESET button "R" pressed for about 5 seconds: a prolonged beep will sound, followed by three short beeps. Indicator light "G" will turn off and at this stage, all the settings will have been can-

Detergent and rinse aid

1509)50-4

Only use specific dishwasher detergents. Pour the detergent into the dispenser on the inside of the door. Before the wash cycle starts!

The detergent

Loading the detergent

To open lid A, press button B. The detergent should be poured into the two containers C and D up to the rim. Now you can close the lid: press it down until you hear it click. If you prefer to use the detergent in tablet form, then place one inside the container D and close the lid.

It won't close!

Check whether there is any detergent residue on the edges of the dispenser. It is due to this residue that the lid won't close. Get rid of it and you'll see that it closes.

The rinse aid.

This product makes dishes sparkle more as it improves their drying. The rinse aid container is situated on the inside of the appliance door; you should refill it when you see the container is empty by means of indicator light D. (If your dishwasher is fitted with a low rinse aid indicator light, fill the container up when the indicator light flashes or lights up).

Loading the rinse aid.

To open the dispenser, turn cap C anticlockwise. Take care when you pour in the rinse aid to avoid it overflowing. You can adapt the amount of rinse aid used by the dishwasher: regulate the adjuster F which you will find under lid C. You can choose from six different positions.

To obtain the best results from each washing and drying cycle, powder detergent, rinse aid liquid and salt should be used.

You can choose from six different positions. It is normally set to 4.

Useful tips

 Use the right

amount of detergent: if you use too much, you will not get cleaner dishes, but just more environmental pollution.

 Keep your

dishwasher detergent and rinse aid in a cool, dry place and away from children.

Proper dosage of

the rinse aid improves drying. If drops of water

remain on the

dishes or spotting

occurs, turn the

dosage adjuster to

a higher setting.

If, on the other

hand, the dishes

have white

streaks, then turn

the dosage

adjuster down to

a lower setting.

Warning

Three-in-one dishwasher tablets are now available on the market, and combine detergent, salt and rinse aid all in one. If the water in your area is hard or very hard, we still recommend you pour extra salt into the relevant dispenser to prevent the formation of white streaks on your dishes or on the interior of the appliance. Using a three-in-one product means it is no longer necessary to put rinse aid into the relevant container. If you want to achieve perfectly dry dishes, you may add rinse aid as long as the dosage adjuster is set to no.2. In any case, please read the manufacturer's instructions on the packet. If you use only these products, it is normal for the salt and rinse aid indicator lights to flash permanently after a certain number of cycles.

Never without salt

1509)50-4

Water in your home

Water hardness varies according to where you live. If the water in your home is hard, without water softening, incrustations would form on your dishes. Your dishwasher is fitted with a water softener which uses special salt to get rid of limescale in the water.

Loading the salt.

Always use salt which is intended for dishwasher use. The salt container is situated underneath the lower rack, fill it up as follows:

1.Pull out the lower rack completely, unscrew and remove the container cap

2. Is it the first time you load the salt? First fill the container up with water (you won't have to do this again next time)

3. Put the dishwasher funnel on the hole and pour in approximately two kilos of salt. It is normal that some water comes out of the container.

4. Screw the cap back in place carefully.

When should I load the salt?

The salt container should be filled up when the low salt indicator light "S" flashes. Once you have loaded the salt for the first time, it is normal that the low salt indicator light stays on or flashes for about 5 consecutive cycles.

Salt adjustment

Your dishwasher can adjust its salt consumption according to the hardness of the water in your home. This way, you can optimise and customise your dishwasher's salt consumption (not too much, nor too little).

To adjust salt consumption, do as follows:

1. Unscrew the salt container cap

2. There is an arrow on the neck of the container (see figure): if necessary, turn the arrow anti-clockwise from the "-" setting to the "+" setting.

Suggestions and advice for you.

How to look after and protect the dishes you hold dear

■ Almost all silverware can be cleaned in a dishwasher. There are two exceptions: old silverware and silverware decorated with an oxidising agent. Hot water can loosen the handles on old silverware ad wear off the decorations on the other. Never let silverware come into contact with other metals: you will thus avoid stains and blackening

Apart from

making you save

time and energy, your dishwasher

disinfects your

dishes, washing

them at a high

temperature.

■ Silver plates and serving dishes should be washed immediately after use, especially if they have contained salt, eggs, olives, mustard, vinegar, fruit juices and cooked vegetables.

■ For particularly delicate dishes, we recommend you use the specific wash cycle offered by your dishwasher.

Savings are easy

Using your electric household appliances wisely helps you make savings and is good for the environment.

Maximum load.

To optimise consumption levels, try to use the dishwasher with a full load only. If it takes quite some time to fill up your dishwasher, use the soak cycle to avoid the formation of bad odours and caked-on food.

The right wash cycle.

Select the most suitable wash cycle for the type of load you have placed in the dishwasher. The choice of wash cycle depends on the type of dishes to wash and on how dirty they are. To select the right wash cycle, please consult the wash cycle table on page 6.

Installation and moving

Your dishwasher has arrived

After having bought or moved your dishwasher to another home, a correct installation ensures that your dishwasher will operate smoothly and efficiently.

Choose where you want to install your dishwasher, you can even place it so that its sides or back panel are side by side with furniture or up against the wall. The dishwasher is provided with water supply and drain hoses, which can be directed towards the left or right to facilitate appropriate installation.

This dishwasher model can be built under a single worktop (please read the relevant instruction sheet).

Levelling.

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet by screwing them in or out depending on how high you want it and to level it so that it is horizontal. Make sure that it is not inclined more than 2 degrees. If the appliance is level, it will help ensure its correct operation.

Anti-flooding protection

Your dishwasher is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply in the event of leaks inside the appliance.

Cold water connection.

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/ 4 (gas) connector, and making sure that it is fastened tightly in place. If the water hoses are new or have been out of use for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure it

If the power socket to which the appliance is

connected is not compatible with

the plug, replace

it with a suitable

plug rather than

using adapters or

multiple plugs as these could cause

overheating or

burns.

is clear and free of impurities before making the connection. If this precaution is not taken, the water inlet could get blocked, causing damage to your dishwasher.

- It is strongly recommended to use a new hose to connect the dishwasher to the water supply line, and the old hoseset should not be reused. Asking to specilized shop or an authorized service technician (see Service).

Hot water connection.

Your dishwasher can be supplied with hot water from the mains supply (if you have a central heating system with radiators) at a temperature of no more than 60°C. In this case, the wash cycle time will be about 15 minutes shorter and the wash will be slightly less effective. The connection must be made to hot water supply following the same procedures as those indicated for the cold water connection.

Drain hose connection.

Fit the drain pipe into a drain line with a minimum diameter of 4 cm or place it over the sink. Avoid restricting or bending it. Use the special plastic elbow provided (see figure) to position it in the best possible way. The part of the pipe marked with the letter A should be between 40 and 100 cm above the ground. The pipe should not be immersed in water.

Electrical connection.

First of all, check that the mains voltage and frequency values correspond to those stated on the rating plate located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance and that the electrical system to which the dishwasher is connected is sized for the maximum current indicated on said rating plate.

Earth: indispensable safety.

Only now can you plug the appliance into a socket provided with an efficient earth connection (the system's earthing is a guarantee of safety provided for by law, make sure your system has it).

Attention

- Once the appliance has been installed, the electrical plug and socket should remain accessible.

- If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its Technical Assistance Service in order to prevent all potential hazards. (See Assistance)

- The cable should not be bent or compressed.

- The Company shall not be held responsible for any incidents that occur if these regulations are not observed.

The special

plastic elbow

should be fastened firmly onto the wall to

prevent the drain

hose from

moving and

allowing water to

spill outside the

drain.

Troubleshooting

If you have a problem, read this

Your dishwasher may not work or not function properly. In many cases, these are problems which can be solved without having to call for a technician. Before calling the service centre, always check the points below.

The dishwasher won't start

■ Is the water supply tap turned on?

■ Is the water supply tap connected to the hose properly?

■ Has the water in your home been cut off?

■ Is the pressure of the water supply sufficient?

■ Is the hose bent?

■ Is the filter on the water supply

hose blocked?

■ Is the dishwasher door open?

The dishes are not clean.

■ Have you put the right amount of detergent into the dispenser?

■ Is the wash cycle suitable for the dishes you have placed inside the appliance?

■ Are the filter and microfilter clean?

■ Can the sprayer arms turn freely?

The dishwasher won't drain.

■ Is the drain hose bent?

Limescale deposits or a white film form on the dishes.

■ Is the lid on the salt container closed properly?

■ Is the rinse aid dosage correct?

Error messages.

Your dishwasher is equipped with a safety system which is able to detect any operating anomalies. These anomalies are reported by one or two wash cycle indicator lights "E" flashing rapidly. Take a note of which lights are flashing, turn the appliance off and call for technical assistance.

Tap off alarm

If you have forgotten to turn the water tap on, your appliance will remind you of this by sounding a few short beeps for a few minutes. Turn the tap on and your appliance will start up again after a few minutes. Were you to be absent when these beeps are sounded, the

appliance will be blocked automatically and wash cycle 4 and 5 indicator lights (Rapid and soak) will flash rapidly. Turn the appliance off at the ON-OFF button, turn on the water tap and wait approximately 21 seconds before turning the appliance back on, then repeat the programming operations and start the appliance by pressing the Start button.

Clogged filter alarm

If the appliance is blocked and wash cycle 3 and 5 indicator lights (Eco and Soak) flash rapidly, this means the filter is clogged by large particles of food residue. Turn the appliance off, clean the filter thoroughly and reposition it in its seat as illustrated on page 10. Then turn the appliance back on. Repeat the programming operations and start the dishwasher by pressing the Start button.

Water load solenoid valve malfunction alarm.

If indicator light 4 (Rapid & Dry) flashes rapidly, TURN the dishwasher OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN after one minute. If the alarm persists, first turn off the water tap to avoid any flooding and then cut off the electricity supply and call for technical assistance.

You have checked everything, but the dishwasher still doesn't work and the problem persists?

Call an authorised service centre near you and remember to mention:

 the type of malfunction  the model mark (Mod.) and the

serial number (S/N.) indicated on the rating plate located on the inner door, to one side.

Never call upon the

services of

unauthorised

technicians and always

refuse spare parts that

are not originals.

Safety within your home

Your dishwasher was built in accordance with the strictest international safety regulations. They protect you and your family. Read the instructions and information contained in this manual: they will provide you with useful hints as to installation, use and maintenance safety. To avoid nasty surprises.

1. Dispose of the packaging material carefully (follow the instructions on how to divide your rubbish up provided by your local Council)

2. After removing the packaging, check to make sure your appliance is intact. If in doubt, contact a qualified professional.

3. Your dishwasher must only be used by adults and for washing household dishes, according to the instructions included in this manual. Do not touch the appliance with wet hands or feet or barefoot.

4. We discourage the use of extension leads and multiple plugs. If the electricity supply wire is not long enough, then have it replaced with one of the correct length and

remember that it should be free of bends or dangerous kinks.

5. If the appliance is not operating properly or if maintenance operations are necessary, disconnect the dishwasher from the mains power supply (unplug it!).

6. Keep children away from the dishwasher when it is open and keep detergents out of their reach.

7. Your dishwasher is not to be installed outdoors, not even if the area is covered by a roof: it is extremely dangerous to leave it exposed to rain and thunderstorms.

8. Do not touch the heating element during or straight after a wash cycle.

9. Do not lean or sit on the

door when it is open, as this could overturn the dishwasher.

10. If the appliance malfunctions, turn off the water inlet tap and disconnect the plug from the wall socket. Then try consulting the section entitled "I you have a problem, read this". If you cannot resolve the problem, then call the service centre.

11. Once taken out of use, appliances must be made inoperable: cut the power supply wire and damage the door lock.

12. The door should not be left in the open position since this could present a tripping hazard.

13. Disposal of old electrical appliances The European Directive 2002/96/EC on Waste Electrical and

Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires that old household electrical appliances must not be disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste stream. Old appliances must be collected separately in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of the materials they contain and reduce the impact on human health and the environment. The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the product reminds you of your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance it must be separately collected. Consumers should contact their local authority or retailer for information concerning the correct disposal of their old appliance.

Care and maintenance

Cleaning and special maintenance

The filter assembly

If you want consistent good results from your dishwasher, you need to clean the filter assembly. The food particles are removed from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle, filtered perfectly. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped inside the cup C  and the semicircular filter A after each wash; pull the cup handle upwards to remove them. Just rinse them under running water. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned thoroughly once a month: cup C + semi-circular filter A + cylindrical filter B. Rotate

filter B anticlockwise to remove it. For cleaning, use a non metallic brush. Reassemble the filter parts (as shown in the figure) and reinsert the whole assembly into the dishwasher. Position it into its housing and press downwards. The dishwasher is not to be used without filters. Improper replacement of the filters may reduce the efficiency of the wash and even damage your dishwasher.

Cleaning the sprayer arms.

Food residue may become encrusted onto the sprayer arms and block the holes where water comes out. Check the sprayer arms regularly and clean them once in a while (letters F and I Close-up view).

Once in a while, once a month, spend a little time on the filter assembly and the sprayer arms.

Keep your dishwasher in shape

Respecting these few rules ensures you will always have a reliable work companion by your side.

After every wash.

When the wash cycle has ended, always remember to turn off the water supply tap and to leave the appliance door ajar. This way, moisture and bad odours will not be trapped inside.

Unplug the appliance.

Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance on the dishwasher, always remove the plug from the electricity socket. Do not run risks

No solvents! No abrasives!

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of your appliance, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Use a cloth dampened with lukewarm soapy water only. If there are any stains on the surface of the appliance interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product specifically made for dishwashers.

Going on holiday?

When you go away for an extended period of time, we recommend you do the following:  run a cycle with the

dishwasher empty

 turn off the water inlet tap.  leave the appliance door

ajar This will help the seals last longer and prevent unpleasant odours from forming inside the appliance.

Moving the appliance.

Should the appliance have to be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

The seals.

One of the factors that cause unpleasant odours to form inside the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning using a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.

Your dishwasher is not a waste

disintegrator!

Do not worry about removing every

single bit of food residue from your

dishes, but do get rid of bones, peel and

rind and any other left-overs before

placing them in the racks. Empty out

all glasses and cups.

LAVAVAJILLA ARISTON - Instrucciones para la instalación y el uso

AVAVAJILLA

¿Cómo se carga la vajilla?

Antes de lavar, estos pequeños detalles pueden ayudarle a lavar mejor y a conservar durante más tiempo su lavavajilla. Quite los residuos más grandes de comida, ponga en remojo las ollas y las sartenes con residuos muy pegados. Después de haber cargado la vajilla controle que giren bien las palas del rociador. No superponga vasos y tazas, controle que los platos no se toquen.

Antes que nada.

Antes de disponer la vajilla en los cestos, elimine los residuos más grandes de comida, de este modo, evitará tapar los filtros reduciendo la eficacia del lavado. Si las ollas y los sartenes tienen residuos muy pegados, colóquelos en remojo a la espera del lavado. Para facilitar la operación de carga de la vajilla, extraiga los cestos.

¿Qué coloco en el cesto inferior?

En el cesto inferior le aconsejamos colocar la vajilla más difícil de lavar: ollas, tapas, platos llanos y hondos, pero también: tazas, tacitas y vasos (en las fotos se puede observar un ejemplo de carga).

 Fuentes y tapas

grandes: colóquelos a los

costados del cesto.

 Ollas, ensaladeras:

deben estar siempre volcadas

 Vajilla muy honda:

colóquela en posición oblicua, así el agua podrá fluir para lavarlas mejor

 Vasos y tazas:

colóquelos como se indica en la figura.

Introduzca los cubiertos en el cesto: los cuchillos y utensilios con puntas cortantes deben colocarse en la cesta para cubiertos con las puntas hacia abajo o dispuestos en los cestos especiales adicionales del cesto superior en posición horizontal. Colóquelos de modo que no se toquen entre sí. Si el cesto es el que tiene los agregados laterales, coloque las cucharitas, una en cada ranura (ver la figura A). Es mejor colocar los cubiertos particularmente largos en posición horizontal en la parte delantera del cesto superior. Después de haber cargado el lavavajilla, recuerde

controlar que las palas del rociador giren libremente, sin chocar con la vajilla.

¿¿Qué coloco en el cesto superior?

En el cesto superior cargue la vajilla delicada y liviana: vasos, tazas de té y café, platitos -también platos ensaladeras bajas, sartenes y cazuelas bajas que no estén muy sucias. Coloque la vajilla liviana de modo tal que no sea desplazada por los chorros de agua.

Regulación del cesto superior.

Puede regular el cesto superior en posición alta o baja para poder colocar su vajilla sin dificultad.

Fig.F

Abra las aletas de bloqueo del carril y extraiga el cesto. Colóquelo ahora en posición alta o baja, luego hágalo deslizar a lo largo de las guías hasta hacer entrar también las ruedas delanteras. Ahora cierre las aletas para el bloqueo. Siga la secuencia de las operaciones ilustradas en la figura "F".
