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 supplied 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.

If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised technician (see Assistance).

The water pressure must be within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see adjacent information).

The hose should not be bent or compressed.

Connecting the water outlet hose

Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drain duct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm.

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. 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.

4. Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of the appliance a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of 8 mm in a clockwise direction to increase the height or in an anticlockwise direction to decrease the height.

Rinse aid and refined salt

specifically designed for dishwashers. Do not use table salt or industrial salt, or washing up liquid.

Follow the instructions given on the packaging.

Only use products which have been

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. Follow the instructions given on the packaging.

If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW

* and LOW RINSE AID* indicator lights

SALT remain lit.

Measuring out 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:  When the LOW RINSE AID panel/dislay is illuminated;

NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.

Adjusting the amount of rinse aid

If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, you may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a screwdriver to turn the dosage adjuster (F) to one of the 6 pre-set positions (the default position is set to 4):  If there are streaks on the crockery, set the adjustment

device to a lower number (1-3).

 If drops of water remain on the crockery or if there are

limescale marks present after the cycle has finished, set the adjuster to a higher number (4-6).

Setting the water hardness

Every dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which, by using refined salt designed especially for this type of appliance, supplies water without limescale which is then used to wash the crockery.

This dishwasher offers a setting which helps to reduce pollution and optimises washing performance in accordance with the water hardness level in your area. This information can be obtained from your local water supplier.

- Switch the machine off using the ON/OFF button and open

the door.

Measuring out the refined salt

In order to achieve the best possible results using a wash cycle, make sure that the dispenser is never empty. Refined salt removes limescale from the water, thus avoiding the formation of deposits on crockery. The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the dishwasher (see Description) and should be filled:  When the green float

the salt container right up to its edge (this should hold approximately 1 kg); it is not unusual for a little water to leak out.

4. Remove the funnel* and wipe any salt residue away from the opening; rinse the cap under running water and then screw it on, the head facing downwards so as to let the water flow out of the four cracks which are arranged in a star shape on the lower part of the cap. (Salt cap with green float

It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you add salt to the container.

Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can get into the container during the wash cycle (this could damage the water softener beyond repair).

When necessary, measure out the salt before a wash cycle so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the salt dispenser is removed.

Care and maintenance

Shutting off the water and electricity supplies

 Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to avoid

leaks.

 Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it and

when performing maintenance work.

Cleaning the dishwasher

 The external surfaces of the machine and the control

panel may be cleaned using a non-abrasive cloth which has been dampened with water. Do not use solvents or abrasive products.

 Any marks on the inside of the appliance 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 behind 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. The two sprayer arms may both be removed.

To remove the upper sprayer arm, rotate the locking ring in an anti-clockwise direction. The upper sprayer arm should be replaced with the holes facing upwards.

Clean the water inlet filter at the tap outlet regularly.

- Turn off the water tap.

- Unscrew the end of the water inlet hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under running water.

- Replace the filter and screw the water hose back into

position.

Cleaning the filters

The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food residues from the washing water and then recirculate the water. They should be cleaned if you wish to achieve the best results in every wash.

Clean the filters regularly.

The dishwasher should not be used without filters, or if

the filter is loose.

 After several washes, check the filter assembly and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-metallic brush and following the instructions below:

1. Turn the cylindrical filter C in an anti-clockwise direction and pull it out (fig. 1).

2. Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on the side flaps (fig. 2).

3. Slide out the stainless steel plate filter A (fig. 3).

4. Inspect the trap and remove any food residue. NEVER REMOVE the wash cycle pump (black detail) (fig. 4).

The lower sprayer arm can be removed by pulling it upwards.

Cleaning the water inlet filter*

If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of impurities before performing the necessary connections. If this precaution is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked and damage the dishwasher.

After cleaning the filters, replace the filter assembly and fix it in position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient operation of the dishwasher.

Leaving the machine unused for extended periods

 Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply and

shut off the water tap.

 Leave the door of the appliance ajar.

 When you return, run a wash cycle when the dishwasher

is empty.

* Only available in selected models.

Precautions and advice

This 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

 This appliance is not intended for use by persons

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

 Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not

play with the appliance.

 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 in accordance with 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

perform the repair work yourself.  Never touch the heating element.  Do not lean or sit on the open door of the appliance: this

may cause the appliance to overturn.  The door should not be left open as it may create a

dangerous obstacle.  Keep detergent and rinse aid out of reach of children.  The packaging material should not be used as a toy.

Saving energy and respecting the environment

Saving water and energy

 Only begin a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full. While

waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent unpleasant odours using the Soak cycle (see Wash cycles).

 Select a wash cycle which is suited to the type of crockery

and to the soil level of the crockery using the Table of wash cycles:

- 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

* (see Start-up and use).

 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 (see Start-up and use) 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 lowtemperature 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 crockery to be washed. Even if they are biodegradable, detergents contain substances which may alter the balance of nature.

* button

Disposal

 Disposal of packaging materials: observe local legislation

so that the packaging may be reused.  The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that

household appliances should not be disposed of using the

normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances

should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost

of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine,

while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and

to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all

products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding

separated waste collection.

For further information relating to the correct disposal of household appliances, owners may contact the relevant public authority or the local appliance dealer.
