Installation
EN
Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for
future reference. If the appliance is sold, given away
or moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the
machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the
advice contained within it.
Please read this instruction manual carefully: it
contains important information regarding the safe
installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.
If the appliance must be moved at any time,
keep it in an upright position; if absolutely
necessary, it may be tilted onto its back.
Positioning and levelling
1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and
check that it has not been damaged during
transportation.
If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do
not proceed any further with the installation process.
2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its
sides or back panel are in contact with the adjacent
cabinets or even with the wall. This appliance can
also be recessed under a single worktop (
Assembly instruction sheet*
).
see the
Connecting the water inlet hose
• To a suitable cold water connection point: before
attaching the hose, run the water until it is
perfectly clear so that any impurities that may be
present in the water do not clog the appliance;
after performing this operation, screw the inlet
hose tightly onto a tap with a ¾ gas threaded
connection.
• To a suitable hot water connection point: your
dishwasher may be provided with hot water from
the mains supply (if you have a central heating
system with radiators) provided that it does not
exceed a temperature of 60°C.
Screw the hose to the tap as described for
connection to a cold water supply.
3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor.
If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance
may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position
(the angle of inclination must not exceed 2 degrees).
If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more
stable and much less likely to move or cause
vibrations and noise while it is operating.
Connecting the water and electricity
supplies
Connection to the water and electricity supplies
should only be performed by a qualified technician.
The dishwasher should not stand on top of the
water hoses or the electricity supply cable.
The appliance must be connected to the water
supply network using new piping.
- Do not use old piping.
The water inlet (A) and outlet (B) hoses and the
electricity supply cable may be positioned towards
the right or the left in order to achieve the best
possible installation (
see figure
).
If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a
specialist store or an authorised technician (
Assistance
The water pressure must be within the values
indicated in the Technical data table (
The hose should not be bent or compressed.
Anti-flooding protection
To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:
- is provided with a special system which blocks the
water supply in the event of anomalies or leaks from
inside the appliance.
- is provided with a
other words it has a water inlet hose that consists of
a transparent hose on the outside and a red hose on
the inside: both the hoses can withstand extremely
high pressure. If the internal hose breaks, the
external hose becomes a bright red colour and
carries the water instead, thus avoiding any leakage.
It is very important to check the external hose
regularly: if it is a bright red colour, it must be
replaced by an authorised technician as soon as
possible (
).
Water Stop

see
see below
).
2
Connecting the water outlet hose
A
Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a
drain duct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm.
Alternatively, rest it over a sink or tub; the free end
of the hose should not remain immersed in water.
The special plastic
elbow* makes it easier to
find the best layout: fix
the elbow to the wall
securely in order to
prevent the outlet hose
from moving and spilling
the dirty water.
The part of the hose
marked with the letter A
should be between 40 and 100 cm above the ground
see figure
(
).
Advice regarding the first wash cycle
After the appliance has been installed, immediately
before running the first wash cycle, completely fill
the salt dispenser with water and add approximately
2 kg of salt (
see Rinse aid and refined salt
). The
water may overflow: this is normal and is not a
cause for concern. It is also normal that the LOW
SALT* indicator light continues to flash for a few
cycles after the salt has been loaded.
EN
We advise against the use of hose extensions.
Electrical connection
Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket,
make sure that:
• the socket is earthed and complies with current
regulations;
• the socket can withstand the maximum load of
the appliance, which is indicated on the data
plate located on the inside of the door (
Description of the appliance
);
see
• the power supply voltage falls within the values
indicated on the data plate on the inside of the
door;
• the socket is compatible with the plug of the
appliance. If this is not the case, ask an
authorised technician to replace the plug (
Assistance
); do not use extension cables or
see
multiple sockets.
Once the appliance has been installed, the
power supply cable, 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.

If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add
rinse aid; however, we recommend that you add salt,
especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or very
hard. If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and
LOW RINSE AID* indicator lights will flash continuously.
Loading the rinse aid
Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water runs
off surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave streaks
or marks.
The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:
• whenever the indicator light (H) signals that it is empty.
Illuminated light: add rinse aid; unlit light: there is no
shortage of rinse aid in the dispenser.

Adjusting the amount of rinse aid
If you are not completely satisfied with the washing or drying
results, you may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a
screwdriver to turn the dosage adjuster to one of the 6 pre-set
positions (the default position is set to 4):
• if there are white streaks on the crockery, set the adjuster
to a lower number (1-3).
• if drops of water remain on the crockery or there are
limescale marks present after the cycle has finished, set the
adjuster to a higher number (4-6).
If you are using multi-functional tablets and you wish to
further improve the drying performance of the appliance, fill

Care and maintenance
Shutting off the water and electricity
supplies
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to
avoid leaks.
• Remove the plug from the socket when cleaning
the machine and when carrying out maintenance
work.
Cleaning the dishwasher
• The external surfaces of the machine and the
control panel may be cleaned using a nonabrasive cloth which has been dampened with
water. Do not use solvents or abrasive products.
• Any marks on the appliance interior may be
removed using a cloth dampened with water and
a little vinegar.
Preventing unpleasant odours
• Always keep the door of the appliance ajar in
order to avoid moisture from forming and being
trapped inside the machine.
• Clean the seals around the door and detergent
dispensers regularly using a damp sponge. This
will avoid food becoming trapped in the seals,
which is the main cause of the formation of
unpleasant odours.
Cleaning the sprayer arms
Food residue may
become encrusted onto
the sprayer arms and
block the holes used to
spray the water. It is
therefore recommended
that the arms are
checked from time to
time and cleaned with a
small non-metallic
brush.
Cleaning the filters
The filters remove food residue from the water used
in the wash cycle: to obtain the best results from
each wash, they should be cleaned.
Clean the filters regularly.
After cleaning check that the filter assembly has
been replaced correctly.
The dishwasher should not be used without
filters or when the filter is loose.
1. Remove the filters by pulling the handle upwards.
2. Clean the filters:

Precautions and advice
EN
The appliance was designed and manufactured
in compliance with current international safety
standards. The following information has been
provided for safety reasons and should therefore be
read carefully.
General safety
• The appliance was designed for domestic use
inside the home and is not intended for
commercial or industrial use.
• The appliance must be used by adults only, to
wash domestic crockery according to the
instructions in this manual.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors,
even in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous
to leave the machine exposed to rain and storms.
• Do not touch the appliance when barefoot.
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the
plug from the mains socket, do not pull on the
cable.
• The water supply tap must be shut off and the
plug should be removed from the electrical
socket before cleaning the appliance or carrying
out any maintenance work.
• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any
circumstances touch the internal parts in an
attempt to carry out the repair work yourself.
• Never touch the heating element.
• The door should not be left open as it may create
a dangerous obstacle.
• Do not lean or sit on the open door of the
appliance: this may cause the appliance to
overturn.
• Keep detergent and rinse aid out of reach of
children.
• The packaging material should not be used as a
toy: it can become a choking or suffocation
hazard.
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.
Saving energy and respecting the
environment
Saving water and energy
• Only start a wash cycle when the dishwasher is
full. While waiting for the dishwasher to be filled,
prevent unpleasant odours with the Soak cycle
see Wash Cycles
(
• Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of
crockery and to the soil level of the crockery
using the
- for dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco
wash cycle, which guarantees low energy and
water consumption levels.
- if the load is smaller than usual activate the Half
load option (
• If your electricity supply contract gives details of
electricity saving time bands, run wash cycles
during the periods when a lower tariff is applied.
The Delayed start* button (
helps you organise the wash cycles accordingly.
Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents
containing enzymes
• We strongly recommend that you use detergents
that do not contain phosphates or chlorine, as
these products are harmful to the environment.
• Enzymes provide a particularly effective action at
temperatures around 50°C, and as a result
detergents containing enzymes can be used in
conjunction with low-temperature wash cycles in
order to achieve the same results as a normal
65°C wash cycle.
• To avoid wasting detergent, use the product in
appropriate quantities based on the
manufacturer’s recommendations, the hardness
of the water and the soil level and quantity of the
crockery. Even if they are biodegradable,
detergents contain substances that may alter the
balance of nature.
