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 half a litre of water inside the salt container
and then fill with salt.
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
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, Clarke and French degrees.
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 Level 1
If your water is "level 1" it is already soft and therefore there is no need to use salt.
Levels 3 and 5 (water softener adjustment)
If your water is level 3 or 5, proceed as follows:
- slide out the lower basket and unscrew the cap of
the salt container;
- turn the two-position selector anticlockwise from
position - to position + with the aid of a blunt knife or screwdriver.
Levels 4 and 5 (adjustment on the machine)
If your water is level 4 or 5, open the door and drill membrane (A) on the upper left-hand corner of the machine.
With a water hardness of level 5 both adjustments must be made.

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 (not the Rinse and Hold programme).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.
To fill:
1. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt
container.
2. Pour half a 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. Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal.
4. Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.
5. Screw on the cap tightly.
The salt container will require topping up periodically. 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.

Rinse aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, 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.
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.

Loading your appliance
Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing the performance.
Do not load very small items which can fall through the baskets.
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
The lower basket
The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc.
Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the upper spray arm can turn freely.
The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard. Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives.
Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards.
If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the handles facing upwards.
Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking together.
Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel cutlery. Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the others.
Arrange spoons, dessert spoons, knives and other small items of cutlery in the rack on the side of the cutlery basket.

The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses.
Larger plates (dinner plates up to 24 cm in diameter) must be loaded in the front part of the upper basket.
Arrange items on and underneath the fold-down cup rack so that water can reach all surfaces.
Glasses with long stems can be placed upside down in the raised cup racks.
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move.
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely.
When loading the dishes, ensure that you do not cover the water inlet funnel in the middle of the upper basket.
Adjusting the height of the upper basket
If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm in diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position.
To move to the higher position proceed as follows:
1. Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket
outward and slide the basket out.
2. Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops (A) in their original position.
When the top basket is in the higher position it will only take plates up to 20 cm in diameter and you will not be able to use the raised cup racks.
After loading your machine always close the door,as an open door can be a hazard.
