Before using your dishwasher for the first
time:
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply
with the installation instructions
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill
with salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
6. Run a "Rinse and Hold" programme.
Setting the water softener
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed
to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which
would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation
of the appliance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water
is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German,
French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness
of the water in your area.Your local Water Authority can
advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.
The dishwasher is factory set at level 2.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should
be adjusted.
To adjust the water softener
With a screwdriver turn the selector on the upper front
corner of the machine until the level required corresponds
with the marker.

Water hardness
If your water is level 0 it is already soft and
therefore there is no need to use salt.
Adjust the water softener on level 1 without
using salt.
In this case (only for models with salt refill
indicator light) the salt refill indicator light on
the control panel will always remain
illuminated when the machine is switched on.

Filling with salt
Only use salt specifically designed for use in
dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed
for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will
damage the water softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the
complete washing programmes.This will prevent
any grains of salt or salty water, which may have
been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the
machine for any period of time,which may cause
corrosion.
The salt container will require topping up periodically.
According to the model, an indicator reminds you when
filling with salt:
A) The salt cap has a refill indicator window in the centre.
A green float is clearly visible when there is salt inside
the container, and almost disappears when the salt has
finished reminding you to add salt.
B) A salt indicator light on the control panel comes on
when the salt has finished.
The salt indicator light on the control panel
can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after
the salt has been replenished, assuming the
dishwasher remains switched on. If you are
using salts that take longer to dissolve then
this can take longer.The function of the
machine is not affected.
C) For appliances not provided with salt indicator:
top up periodically the salt container with salt
(after about every 50 washing cycles with water softener
setted on level 3).
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling
with salt, this is quite normal.

1. Unscrew the cap of the salt container.
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container
(this is necessary only before filling with
salt for the first time).
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt
until the container is full.
4. Remove any trace of salt on the screw thread
or on the gasket.
5. Screw on the cap tightly.

Rinse aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse,
ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying.
The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds
about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40
dishwashing programmes, depending upon the dosage
setting.
Filling with rinse aid
1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full.
The indicator (B) will be completely dark.
3. Top up the rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes clear.
(Only for models with rinse aid indicator light)
Top up the rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light on
the control panel illuminates.
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Do not put liquid detergent in the rinse aid compartment.
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent
cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.
Adjusting the dose
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust
the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (C)
(position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).
Start from position 3.
Gradually increase the dose if there are drops of water or
lime spots on the dishes after washing.Reduce it if there are
sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.

Use of detergent
Only use detergents specifically designed
for use in dishwashers.
If using powder detergents proceed as follows:
1. Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D).
2. Add the detergent according to the recommended
quantity given in the "Washing programmes" chart
(Instruction book - Part 2).
As all detergents are not the same, you should also
consult the instructions on the packet.
3. Always close the lid.
4. If the programme has a prewash add a little amount
of detergent over the lid of the dispenser.Follow the
recommended quantity of detergent given in the
"Washing programmes" chart.
If using detergent in tablets proceed as follows:
1. For all programmes; place 1 tablet inside the detergent
dispenser.
2. Always close the lid.
3. For all programmes with prewash;place a portion of a
further tablet on the lid of the detergent dispenser.
Insufficient quantities of detergent will produce
poor washing results, whereas an excessive
amount of detergent will not improve washing
results and is also wasteful.
Using no more than the correct amount also
contributes to reducing pollution.
Compact detergents with enzymes
In these compact powders the environmentally
unfriendly components have been replaced by
natural enzymes and other more biodegradable
substances.
The enzymes deploy their full dirt dissolving power at
a temperature as low as 50°C.
By choosing the "BIO" programmes (if foreseen with
the model) you can therefore achieve the same
cleaning results that would otherwise be achievable
only with 65°C programmes and conventional
detergents.
These new compact powders are generally
phosphate-free.
