Section 3. Operating the Appliance
3.1. Before You Operate The Appliance
3.1.1. Adding Salt
The sole use of 3-in-1 tablets is not recommended as failure to add
salt to the salt container will leave your dishwasher exposed to
limescale damage which is not covered by the manufacturers
guarantee. Protect your appliance by adding salt as follows:
Remove the lower basket and then unscrew the salt container cap (1).
Add approximately 1kg of specialist dishwasher salt to the container
using the funnel provided (2). N.B. It is normal for a small amount of
water to come out of the container whilst filling it with salt.
Now replace the screw cap correctly and ensure that it is tight. If not,
salt may leach into the dishwasher chamber which can be detrimental
to the stainless steel interior. This is not covered by the manufacturers
guarantee.
After adding salt you should run a program to activate the water
softener and flush away any salt spilled into the machine.
If salt is low the indicator light (6) will show on the control panel.
3.1.2. Adding Rinse Aid
11
Remove the Rinse Aid Filler Cap (1).
Add Rinse Aid until the container is full (2).
Replace the Filler Cap (3).
If rinse aid is low the indicator light (6) will show on the control panel.
3.1.3. Adding Detergent
Use specialist dishwasher detergent powder or dishwasher
tablets in this appliance. However, please note that tablets do not
always dissolve fully during shorter wash programs, so you are advised
to operate your appliance on a longer wash program if using tablets.
In addition, the use of tablets may result in spots appearing on dishes
and glasses, if this happens you are advised to activate the water
softener as described in section 3.1.1. above.
Open the detergent dispenser (Pic.1) add powder (See program for
Qty) or tablet to the correct container (Pic.2) then close the container
cover.
If the program selected has
a pre-wash cycle and you
are using detergent powder,
add the main dosage of
powder to compartment ‘A’
and the specified amount of
powder into compartment
‘B’.
Close the compartment lid
once the powder has been
added.
12
3.1.4. Adjusting The Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid container has 6 settings.
Your machine has been pre-set at setting 4.
If you can see white spots on the crockery or poor
drying is a problem increase the setting to 5.
If the crockery is still not drying properly, increase
the setting to 6.
3.1.5. Adjusting the Water Softener
The water softener in your appliance has been pre-set to the mid setting, but if you need to change the setting please proceed as
follows: Unscrew the salt container lid. Turn the arrow to the ‘+’ or ‘-‘
setting according to your water hardness (see chart below). Now
screw the salt container lid back into place.
Please note that the Clarke scale indicates the UK degree of water hardness
Please Note: Occasionally small rust deposits may be present in your
incoming water supply due to the water passing through older pipe work in
the network. If present, the rust may show up as small harmless brown
spots on the stainless steel interior of your appliance. To remove the
spots, simply wipe them away with a damp cloth.

3.3.1. Upper Basket
The upper basket is designed to
hold delicate and lighter items
such as glasses, coffee and
tea cups and saucers, as well as
small plates, small bowls
and shallow pans (as long as they
are not too dirty).
Remove large deposits of food
and ensure that all items are
positioned securely so that they
will not be moved by the force of
the water.
Ensure that items are not blocking
the rotation of the spray arms.

sharp items are placed into the
basket with the sharp end pointing
down. Do not let them touch each
other – this will reduce the wash
performance.
Ensure that items are not blocking
the rotation of the spray arms.

N.B. The dishwasher does not have a separate drying programme.
Drying is by residual heat only.
3.6. Selecting a Program & Starting the Cycle
Please read in conjunction with Section 3.2. The Control Panel
Ensure that the power supply to the appliance is ON.
Ensure that the door is closed securely.
Load the baskets, ensuring that large deposits of food are removed.

At the end of the cycle a buzzer will sound for approximately 8
seconds. Press the On/Off button to turn off the machine. Opening the
door slightly, 10 to 15 minutes after the end of the cycle, to allow
excess steam to escape, may aid drying. However water will collect in
some items where there are indents or dimples. This is normal.
Turn off the power supply to the machine and leave the machine to
cool down for a few minutes before unloading.
Open the door carefully – steam may escape – this is normal.
Handle and remove items carefully as they may be hot.
Always empty the lower basket first. This will avoid water dripping
from the upper baskets onto the lower basket.

Section 4. Maintenance
4.1. Cleaning the Filter
The filter helps prevent large pieces of food or other items entering the
pump and causing damage. It is important that you examine and clean
the filter system on a regular basis. Blocked filters are not covered

and return it to the filter
chamber.
Turn the top clockwise to lock
the assembly back into position.
4.2. Cleaning the Door
Periodically clean the inner stainless steel lining of the door with a warm
damp cloth. Pay particular attention to the edges (as shown below) so
that food deposits do not build up, causing the door seal to fail. Clean the
door seal with warm soapy water.
Never use abrasive cleaners or polishes on the stainless steel!
18
4.3. Cleaning the Spray Arms
Small particles of food will over time get into the spray arms and cause
blockages. Periodically remove the spray arms (as shown below) and
wash them in warm soapy water. Blocked spray arms are not covered
under the Guarantee!
To remove the upper spray arm,
hold the nut and rotate the arm
clockwise. Wash the arm in

4.4. Daily Maintenance
Follow these useful tips to ensure your dishwasher stays in tip-top
working order:
Always switch off the power supply at the plug when your dishwasher
is not in use.
Always pay particular attention to the filter and spray arms – give them
a regular clean as described in 4.1. and 4.3. above.
Clean the door edges and door seal as described in 4.2. above.
Add salt to your appliance when prompted by the salt light on the
control panel.
Add rinse aid to your appliance when prompted by the rinse aid light
on the control panel.
Only use Dishwasher salt, Dishwasher detergent and Dishwasher
rinse aid in your dishwasher.
Never use abrasive cleaners to clean your appliance.
When the appliance is not in use, leave the door slightly ajar in order
to avoid moisture and odours building up inside. However, this may
not be advisable if small children have unsupervised access to
the area where the dishwasher is sited.
If you are vacating the house for a long period, run a rinse cycle
through the machine and then ensure that the water and power
supplies to the dishwasher have been turned off. Leave the door ajar.
