Positioning the appliance
Positioning the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.
Levelling the appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2˚. If the appliance is level, it will help ensure proper performance.
Cold water connection
Connect the water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connector, making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.A).
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there
is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the
fig.A
appliance.
Warning
The appliance is to be connected to the water mains using new hose-
sets and that old hose-sets should not be reused.

en
Drain hose connection
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. If necessary, fit a syphon trap (U-bend) with a connecting piece for the drain hose (fig.B). The free end of the hose must be at a height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.
fig.B
Attention:
The connecting piece for syphon trap (U-bend) must be solidly fastened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill outside the drain.
Electrical Connection
After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate (located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and that the electrical system is correct for the maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety requirement mandated by law).
If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug, replace the whole cable, rather than using adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.
Caution:
The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appliance is installed as a built-in unit so that maintenance can be done safely.

How to fill the salt |
en |
|
|
Salt
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water.
Loading the salt into the container
Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.
The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:
According to the “Water Hardness Tabel”, you can calculate the time of use, then load the salt .
Remove the lower rack and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.
If you are filling the container for the first time, fill it with water.
Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2 kg of salt. It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.
Carefully screw the cap back on.
Important
To prevent the formation of rust, load the salt just before beginning a
wash cycle.

en
Adjusting salt consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt consumption so that it remains at a minimum.
To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows:
Unscrew the cap from the salt container;
There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see figure to the side),
If necessary, rotate the ring in an anticlockwise direction from the "-" setting towards the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.
It is recommended that adjustments be made in accordance with the following table:

Not suitable for the dishwasher |
en |
|
|
What you should not put into the dishwasher
Cutlery and tableware manufactured in whole or part from wood.They become faded and unsightly in appearance.Furthermore,the adhesives that are used are not suitable for the temperature that occur inside the dishwasher.Delicate decorative glassware and vases,special antique or irreplaceable china. The decorative patterns on such items will not be dishwasher-proof.
Plastic objects that are not resistant to hot water, copper and pewter utensils are also not suitable. Decorative patterns printed or painted onto the surface of crockery, glasses, etc.,aluminium and silver items tend to become discoloured or faded if washed in the diswasher. Some types of glass can become opaque in appearance after they have been washed many times in a dishwasher. Highly absorbent materials, such as sponges and towels,should never be placed in the dishwasher.
Our recommendation
In future, only purchase table or kitchenware that has been confirmed as being dishwasher-proof.
Important
Dishes or cutlery that have been soiled by tobacco ash, wax,
Iubricating grease or paint, should not be put in the dishwasher.
Damage to glassware and other dishes
Possible causes
type of glass or manufacturing process chemical composition of detergent
water temperature and duration of dishwasher programme.
Suggested remedy
Use glassware or porcelain dishes that have been marked ‘dishwasher-proof’ by the manufacture. Use a mild detergent that is described as ‘kind to dishes’. If necessary, seek further information from detergent manufacturers.
Select a programme with a low temperature and a short duration as possible.
To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher as soon as possible after the programme has ended.
12
Arranging crockery, glasses, etc. in the dishwasher en
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove larger food particles to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which results in reduced performance.
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to remove, we recommend that they are soaked before washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.
Pull out the rack to load the dishwasher.
How to use the lower rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down. (see fig.C)
Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out. The silverware basket can be doubled (see fig.D) so that only one section may be used when the silverware load is light. This also makes space for additional pots and pans and it can also be placed in the upper rack.
Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Especially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at the front of the upper rack.(see fig.D)
Normal daily load
fig.C |
Warning
knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the
basket with their points down or placed in a horizontal position.
13
en
How to use the upper rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs located on both sides of the rack itself (see fig.D).
Adjust the upper basket to the higher level and you have more space to accommodate those taller pans and trays in the bottom basket.
fig.D |
Shelf
Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelfnot against other items to be washed.
Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack. The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required (see fig.E).
Knife rack
The knife rack clips onto the side of the top basket, giving you the freedom to wash your large sharp knives separately and out of harm’s way (see fig.F).

Programme selection
The most appropriate programme can be identified by comparing the type of crockery, cutlery, etc., as well as the amount and condition of food remains, with the details contained in the wash cycle table.The corresponding programme sequence, duration and consumption details are shown in the right half of the overview. For example:
Use the« normal» 
programme for dishes and utensils which have plenty of food remains stuck on hard.
Earn savings
If only a small number of dishes have been loaded into the dishwasher,selecting a programme that operates at the next lowest temperature will usually be sufficient.
Programme data
The stated programme data are based on standard operating conditions. The values can vary considerably according to:
different amounts of dishes temperature of mains water supply pressure of mains water supply ambient temperature
fluctuations in mains voltage
machine-related factors (e.g. temperature, water volume,...)
Turning on the Appliance
Starting a wash cycle...
Make sure that the plug for the appliance is inserted into the wall socket.
Make sure that the water supply is turned on to full pressure.

Pour in the detergent.
Press the ON-OFF button, and the State Indicator will turn on.
Turn the knob located on the right of the control panel until the number or symbol for the cycle setting is aligued with the refrence mark (see the section entitled, program overview).If the knob rightly aligned with the refrence mark you want to choose, you must turn the knob to with the mark of “Reset” .Then back to first step.
After five seconds the State Indicator will turn off, the wash cycle will begin.
17
en
At the end of the wash cycle...
When the buzzer constantly beeps six times, the State Indicator will turn on and the cycle has finished. Turn off the appliance using the ON-OFF button, turn off the watersupply and open the door of the dishwasher. Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.
Cancelling or modifying a wash cycle setting...
A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it has been running for a short time. Otherwise, the detergent may have already been used, and the appliance may have already drained the wash water. If this is the case, the detergent dispenser must be refilled (see the paragraph entitled, "Loading the Detergent").
Rotate the knob to the mark of “Reset”,the appliance will take a few minute drain phase.During this process, you can select right programme.
Warning
Do not place the tablets in the tub or the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent doser.

How to keep your dishwasher in shape |
en |
|
|
After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply (not necessary for models with “Aquastop” ) the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.
Remove the plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.
No solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little while vinegar, or cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
The door should not be left in the open position since this could present a tripping hazard.
When You Go on Holiday
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.
19
