 t into your power socket, ask a quali ed electrician to replace it.
Water supply
How to connect the water supply hose?
You must connect the dishwasher to a water supply using a new hose. Do not use perished, old or otherwise damaged hoses. Water pressure must be in the range 0.03 MPa to 1 MPa. If the water pressure in your system is lower, ask for advice from our service department.
 Pull out the hose fully from the storage area in the rear part of the dishwasher.  Screw in the water supply hose to a tap with a 3/4" thread.  Fully open the water supply before turning on the dishwasher.
Water supply hose
The water supply hose has double wall. The water  lling system guarantees intervention by blocking the water supply in the event that the water supply hose fails.
WARNING! The hose connected to the water supply to the sink may break, if the sink is connected to the same water system as the dishwasher. We recommend that you disconnect the hose and seal the opening.
EN - 7
08/2012Copyright © 2012, Fast ČR, a. s.
How to disconnect the water supply hose?
 Shut o the water inlet.  Reduce water pressure by pressing the reduce pressure button. This will reduce the water pressure and
prevent water from possibly squirting out into the room.
 Unscrew the water supply hose from the water tap.
WARNING! To prevent water from staying in the hose, close the water inlet into the dishwasher. (This does not apply to dishwashers with the aqua-stop function.)
Connecting the drain hose
Insert the drain hose into the waste water pipe with a minimum diameter of 4 cm or leave it lying in the sink and ensure that it is not bent or dented. Use a special plastic bracket supplied with the appliance. The hose must be at a height of 50 to 110 cm above the ground. The loose end of the hose must not be submerged in water so that reverse water  ow does not occur.
NOTE: The hose must be at a height of 50 to 110 cm above the ground. The loose end must not be submerged in water.

The display will show „CL“ for approximately 2 seconds. To cancel the child lock function hold down the + and – buttons at the same time for 4 seconds. „CL“ will  ash once on the display.
Before  rst use
Before you put your dishwasher into operation: a) set water softening; b) pour 3/4 litre of water into the salt compartment and  ll it up with salt; c)  ll the rinsing aid compartment; d)  ll the dishwashing detergent compartment.
Water softener
The water softener is made so that it releases minerals and salts contained in water, which would have a negative e ect on the operation of the dishwasher. The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder the water is. You should set the water softener according to the water hardness in your area. Information about water hardness in your area should be provided by your water supply company.
If you use hard water in your dishwasher, scale deposits will be left on your dishes, which may negatively a ect the washing e ciency and lifetime of your dishwasher. The appliance should be equipped with a special softener, which uses the salt compartment for salt speci cally designed for eliminating scale and minerals from water.
Identifying water hardness
The dish washing e ciency of your dishwasher depends on the hardness of the water used. Therefore, your dishwasher is equipped with a system which reduces water hardness at the main water inlet. The better the system is set up the better the achieved washing e ciency. Your water supplier should provide you with information about water hardness in your area or you may measure it yourself using a simple harness test, a special testing strip (not included).

Adding salt into the salt container
Always use salt designed for dishwashers. The salt compartment is located under the lower rack and you should re ll it in the following manner.
NOTE  Use only salt speci cally designed for use in dishwashers! Any other kind of salt, which is not
speci cally designed for use in dishwashers, particularly table salt, would damage the softener system in the dishwasher. Damage caused by the use of inappropriate salt is not covered by the manufacturer's guarantee and the manufacturer takes no responsibility for any damages caused.
 Add the salt before starting one of the full washing cycle programs. This will prevent salt
crystals or salt water from lying at the bottom of the dishwasher, where this could lead to corrosion.
a) Slide out the lower rack and then unscrew the lid of the salt compartment – see pic. 1/2. b) Before the  rst wash, pour 3/4 litre of water into the salt compartment. c) Place the funnel (included accessory) on the opening of the compartment and pour 2 kg of salt into it.
• It is normal for a smaller amount of water to run out of the compartment. d) After  lling the compartment screw the lid back on by turning it in the clockwise direction. e) You should start a washing program immediately after the salt compartment has been re lled (we
recommended the rinse or quick wash program). Otherwise the salt water could damage the  ltration
system, pump and other important part of the dishwasher. This is not covered by the warranty.
NOTE  Only re ll the salt compartment when the salt warning indicator light on the control panel
lights up. Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the warning indicator light may stay on even after the salt compartment has been re lled.
 If there is no salt warning indicator light on the control panel (on some models), you can
estimate the amount after adding salt to the system by the number of cycles performed by the dishwasher.
 If salt runs out anywhere, remove it by starting the rinse program or the quick wash program.

08/2012Copyright © 2012, Fast ČR, a. s.
Adding rinsing aid
Rinsing aid compartment
 The rinsing aid is released during the last rinse so that water drops do not remain on your dishes causing
stains. It also improves drying due to the fact that all the water  ows o the dishes. Your dishwasher is
designed to only be used with a liquid rinsing aid. The rinsing aid compartment is located on the inside
wall of the door next to the dishwashing detergent compartment.  Fill up the compartment by opening it and pouring in the rinsing aid until the indicator goes completely
dark. The capacity of the rinsing aid compartment is approximately 110 ml.
NOTE: Use only branded dishwasher rinsing aids. Never pour other mixtures (such as liquid detergents, etc.) into the rinsing aid compartment. Otherwise the dishwasher may be damaged.
When should the rinsing aid be re lled?
If the rinsing aid compartment is empty, the relevant indicator light on the control panel will turn on indicating the need to add rinsing aid. After  lling the compartment with rinsing aid the entire indicator is dark. As the rinsing aid is gradually used up the point of the indicator becomes smaller. Never allow the amount of rinsing aid to fall below 1/4 of the compartment volume.
CAUTION Wipe any spilled rinsing aid with a wiping cloth, so that excessive suds are not formed in the following wash. Do not forget to put the lid back on before closing the dishwasher door.
Setting dial (rinse)
The rinsing aid compartment has six di erent settings. Its factory level setting is 3. If stains form on the dishes or if there is a problem with drying the dishes, increase the released amount of the rinsing aid by removing the lid and turning the dial to "4". If despite this step the dishes are not without stains after drying, adjust the setting again to a higher level until the dishes are clean after drying. If rinsing aid residues remain on the dishes, reduce the level to 1 – 2. The recommended setting is "3". (The value set by the manufacturer is "3".)
NOTE: If there are water drops or scale stains on the dishes after the wash, increase the dosage. If there are white stains or blueish layers on glasses or knife blades, lower the dosage.

Function of the detergent
Dishwashing detergents with their chemical additives are essential for the removal of soils, their decomposition and removal from the dishwasher. For this purpose the majority of commercial quality dishwashing detergents are suitable.
Dishwashing detergents
There are 3 types of dishwashing detergents:
1. containing phosphates and chlorine;
2. containing phosphates and without chlorine;
3. without phosphates and without chlorine.
New dishwashing detergents usually do not contain phosphates and so the softening function of the phosphates is missing. In such a case we recommended the use of a softening salt even when the water hardness is a mere 6°dH. If you use dishwashing detergents without phosphates and have hard water, this leads to the frequent appearance of white stains on dishes and glasses. In such a case you will therefore achieve better results if you add more dishwashing detergent. Chlorine-free dishwashing detergents whiten only slightly. For this reason strong and colourful stains will not be completely removed. In such a case select a program with a higher temperature.
Concentrated dishwashing detergents
Based on their chemical composition dishwashing detergents are divided into two basic types:
 standard, alkaline dishwashing detergents with caustic additives;  less alkaline dishwashing detergents with natural enzymes.
Using "standard" washing programs in combination with concentrated dishwashing detergents reduces pollution and is appropriate for your dishes. These programs are speci cally improved with enzymes, which are contained in concentrated dishwashing detergents, that can dissolve soils. For this reason you can achieve the same results with concentrated dishwashing detergents using a "standard" washing program, as you would achieve only with the use of an "intensive" program.
Dishwashing tablets
The dissolving speed of various brands of dishwashing tablets may di er. For this reason some tablets may not dissolve during the short programs and therefore fail to perform their cleaning function. So when using tablets use the long programs to ensure the removal of all dishwashing detergent remains.
Dishwashing detergent compartment
You must  ll up the compartment before starting any washing cycle according to the instructions contained in the dishwashing cycle table. Your dishwasher uses less dishwashing detergent and rinsing aid than an ordinary dishwasher. Generally a single tablespoon of dishwashing detergent is su cient for a standard wash. For more heavily soiled dishes you will need more dishwashing detergent. Always add the dishwashing detergent immediately before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could become damp and subsequently not dissolve completely.
NOTE
 If the lid is closed, press the button. The lid will open.  Always add the dishwashing detergent immediately before starting each washing cycle.  Use only branded dishwashing detergents designed for dishwashers.
EN - 17
08/2012Copyright © 2012, Fast ČR, a. s.
WARNING! The dishwashing detergent is corrosive! Keep it out of children's reach.
Using the dishwashing detergent
Use only dishwashing detergent speci cally designed for use in dishwashers. Store the dishwashing detergent in a dark and dry place. Do not put dishwashing detergent powder into the compartment unless you intend to start the dishwasher.
Dosage of the dishwashing detergent
1. Release the clip to open the dishwashing detergent compartment.
2. Place the required amount of dishwashing detergent into the main wash detergent compartment (if you
are using a dishwashing powder). Make sure that the amount of the dishwashing detergent is between the
MIN and MAX level lines.
3. If the dishes are overly soiled, also add dishwashing detergent into the pre-wash partition.
4. Close the dishwashing detergent compartment.
5. Now turn on the dishwasher.
NOTE: The mark „MIN” in the main wash detergent compartment corresponds to approximately 20g of dishwashing detergent. The pre-wash detergent compartment will take approximately 5g of dishwashing detergent.
Follow the recommended dosages and storage indicated by the manufacturer on the packaging of the dishwashing detergent. Close the lid and press it down until it clicks in. If the dishes are heavily soiled, also add dishwashing detergent into the pre-wash compartment. This dose will be used during the pre-wash phase of the wash.
NOTE: You can  nd the information about dishwashing detergent dosages in the washing program table. Keep in mind that the results may di er depending on the degree of soiling and hardness of the water used. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations on the dishwashing detergent package.

PART 5: WASHING DISHES / CUTLERY
 Purchase dishes designated as dishwasher safe.  Use a gentle dishwashing detergent marked as "gentle on dishes". If necessary seek out further information
from the dishwashing detergent manufacturer.
 For certain types of dishes select a lower temperature.  To prevent possible damage, remove glassware and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as possible after
the end of the wash.
Unsuitable are:
 cutlery with wooden, bone or mother-of-pearl handles;  plastic parts that are not heat resistant;  older cutlery with glued parts that are not heat resistant;  glued cutlery or dishes;  tin or copper dishes;  crystal glassware;  metal parts susceptible to corrosion;  wooden cutting boards;  dishes made from synthetic  bres.
Partially suitable are:
 some types of glass may corrode after several washes;  silver and aluminium cookware may become discoloured by the wash;  glazed patterns may fade if washed frequently.
NOTE: Your dishwasher will achieve the best performance if you follow these instructions for inserting dishes into the racks. The function and appearance of the racks and the cutlery basket may di er depending on the model of the dishwasher.
NOTE: Do not place any items into the dishwasher soiled by cigarette ash, wax, varnish or paint. When buying new dishes, check that they are dishwasher safe.
First remove remaining or burned on foods. It is not necessary to wash dishes under running water.
Insert the dishes into the dishwasher as follows.
 Items such as cups, glasses, pots / pans, etc., should be placed bottom up.  Curved cookware and cookware with projections should be placed at an angle to allow water to freely
 ow out.
 Place dishes safely so that they cannot tip over.  Place dishes in such a way that the spraying arms can rotate freely during the wash.
NOTE: Do not wash very small pieces in the dishwasher because they can easily fall out of the rack.
EN - 19
08/2012Copyright © 2012, Fast ČR, a. s.
 Hollow cookware, e.g. cups, glasses, pans, etc. should be placed bottom up so that water does not
accumulate inside them during the wash.
 Dishes and cutlery must not be inserted into each other or to cover each other.  To prevent damaging glasses, they must not touch each other.  Place hard-to-clean large cookware in the lower rack.  The upper rack is intended for lighter and fragile dishes, such as glasses, cups and mugs.  Knives with a large blade placed in a vertical position are dangerous!  Long and/or sharp cutlery, e.g. kitchen knives must be placed horizontally in the upper rack.  Do not over ll your dishwasher. For better washing results and lower power consumption.
Taking dishes out of the dishwasher
To prevent water dripping down from the upper rack on to the dishes in the lower rack, we recommended you  rst empty the lower rack and only then the upper rack.
Filling the upper rack
The upper rack is designed for lighter dishes:  glasses, cups and mugs and saucers, also small plates, small bowls and shallow pots (if they are not too
soiled). Place the dishes in such a way that they will not be moved by the sprayed water current.
Loading the lower rack
We recommend you place larger cookware and hard-to-clean cookware into the lower rack:  pots, pans, lids, serving plates and bowls. It is better to place serving plates and lids on the sides of the rack, so that the spraying arm does not become blocked.
EN - 20
08/2012Copyright © 2012, Fast ČR, a. s.
Remember that:
 pots, serving bowls, etc. must be place bottom up;  deep pots should be placed at an angle so that water can freely run out of them;  the tines on the lower rack can be folded, so that you can insert larger pots and pans or more smaller items.
Special cookware, e.g. large pans or plates should be placed in the lower rack. The recommended placement is shown below.
Incorrect arrangements of dishes
Setting the upper rack
Setting the height of the upper rack
The height of the upper rack can be set so as to create more space for larger dishes in the upper / lower rack. The height of the upper rack can be set by inserting the wheels at various heights into the rails. Long pieces of cookware, eating utensils, ladles and knives should be placed in the rack so that they do not interfere with the rotation of the spraying arms. If you will not use a rack, you may tilt it down or even remove it.

Upper rack partitions
The upper rack partitions (a, b) can be tilted upwards as necessary for example for placing tall glasses.
Setting the lower rack
Tilting down the tines in the lower rack
The lower rack contains 4 tine sections, which can be tilted down, and they make placing dishes into the lower rack easier, e.g. pots, pans, plates, etc. Tilt the tines up or down as necessary.
EN - 22
08/2012Copyright © 2012, Fast ČR, a. s.
Basket for cutlery
Place cutlery into the basket with the handle downwards. If the basket has side partitions, place spoons separately into the appropriate openings. Particularly long cutlery should be place in a horizontal position in the front part of the upper rack as shown in the picture.
1. Table spoons
2. Forks
3. Knives
4. Dessert spoons
5. Tea spoons
6. Ladles
7. Serving spoons
8. Serving forks
WARNING!
 Ensure that no cutlery projects through the bottom of the basket.  Always place sharp cutlery with the tip pointing downwards!
For your personal safety and to achieve the maximum quality way place cutlery into the basket, ensuring that:
 individual items are not lying on each other;  the cutlery is placed with the handle pointing downwards;  place knives and other dangerous cookware with the handle pointing upwards.

PART 6: MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Filtration system
The  lter prevents food remains or other foreign items from entering the pump. Food remains may clog the  lter and in such a case it is necessary to take it out. The  ltration system consists of a coarse  lter, a plastic  lter and a micro- lter ( ne  lter).
1 Plastic  lter
Food remains and soils caught by this  lter are pulverised by a special jet on the bottom spraying arm and  ushed down the drain.
2 Coarse  lter
Larger parts, e.g. bits of bone or glass, which could clog the drain are stopped by the coarse  lter. Remove the soils caught by this  lter by taking the  lter out - gently press the plug on the top of this  lter and lift it up.
3 Fine  lter
This  lter stops the remains of soils and food in the area of the water tank and prevent the remains from returning back to the area of the dishwasher during the wash.
Installing the  lter
The  lter e ectively removes food remains from the water used to wash the dishes and so this water can be used repeatedly during the wash. You will achieve better wash results if you regularly clean out the  lter. For this reason it is better to remove the food remains from the  lter after every wash by  ushing out the semi-circular  lter and containers under running water. Take out the  lter by pulling upwards on the container handle.
WARNING!
 Never use the dishwasher without a  lter.  An incorrectly seated  lter may lower the e ciency of the dishwasher and cause damage to
dishes.
EN - 27
08/2012Copyright © 2012, Fast ČR, a. s.
1. To remove and clean the  ltration system turn the  lter anticlockwise and then lift it up.
2. Pull out the metal/plastic  lter.
3. Take the course  lter out of the  ne  lter.
NOTE: Follow all the steps of this procedure remove the  ltration system; then reinstall it by proceeding from step 3 to step 1.
Recommendation:
 After every use of the dishwasher check that the  lters are not clogged.  You can take out the  ltration system by unscrewing the coarse  lter. Remove any food remains
and clean out the  lters under running water.
NOTE: You should clean the entire  ltration set once per week.
Cleaning the  lters
To clean the coarse and  ne  lters use a brush. Reassemble the individual parts of the  lter as shown on pictures 1, 2 and 3. Reinsert them back into the dishwasher in their place and press them downwards.
WARNING!
Do not knock on the  lters when cleaning them. Otherwise the  lters could bend, which would lower the e ciency of the dishwasher. Never use the dishwasher without a  lter. An incorrectly seated  lter may lower the e ciency of the dishwasher and cause damage to dishes.
Dishwasher care
You can clean the control panel using a light damp wiping cloth. Thoroughly dry the area after cleaning. Clean the exterior parts of the dishwasher using a quality polish. Never use any sharp items, steel wool or coarse, sandy cleaning products to clean any part of the dishwasher.
