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 dishwasher salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
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 minerals and salts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, Clarke degrees, French degrees (°TH) and mmol/l (millimol per litre).
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.
Setting the water softener
1. Open the dishwasher door.
2. Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.
3. Turn the water hardness switch until the required level (see
table) corresponds with the marker .
4. Replace the lower basket.
The dishwasher is factory set at position 2.
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 spilt, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the
cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.
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. 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 turning it clockwise until it stops with a click.
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.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal.

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 pressing the release button (A).
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The
maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill. Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an
absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.
Adjusting the dose
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).
The dose is factory set in position 4. 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 or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.
Top up the rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes clear.

Load cutlery and dishes into the dishwasher.
Fill with dishwasher detergent .
Select a wash programme suitable for the cutlery and
dishes.
Start the wash programme.
Loading cutlery and dishes
Sponges, household cloths and any object that can absorb water may not be washed in the dishwasher.
Before loading the dishes, you should:
- Remove large left-overs.
- Soften remnants of burnt food in pans
When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note:
- Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the
spray arms .
- Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with
the opening downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.
- Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one
another, or cover each other.
- To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch.
- Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.
Plastic items and pans with teflon have a tendency to
retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel items.
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 spray arms 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.
Forks and spoons should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards and the knives with their handles facing upwards. 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.
For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grid provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it).
In daily use
7
For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery/dishes
are of limited suitability:
- Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is specifically marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.
- Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently
- Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing. Residues, e.g. egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore always clean left-overs from silver immediately, if it is not to be washed straight after use.
- Some types of glass can become dull after a large number of washes
are not suitable:
- Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother-of-pearl handles
- Plastic items that are not heat resistant
- Older cutlery with glued parts that is not temperature resistant
- Bonded cutlery items or dishes
- Pewter or copper items
- Lead crystal glass
- Steel items subject to rusting
- Wooden platters
- Items made from synthetic fibres
UI76
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.
Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces.
Glasses with long stems can be placed upside down in the cup racks.
For taller items, the cup racks can be folded upwards.
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must 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.
Adjusting the height of the upper basket
If washing very large plates 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
outwards and slide the basket out.
2. Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops (A) in their original position.
When the basket is in the higher position you will not be able to use the cup racks.
After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard.
Use of detergent
Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
We recommend the use of Finish detergents. Using no more then the correct amount of detergent
contributes to reducing pollution. Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage
recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
Fill with detergent
1. If the lid is closed: press release button (1). The lid springs
open.
2. Fill the detergent dispenser (2) with detergent. The marking indicates the dosing levels: 20 = approximately 20 g of detergent 30 = approximately 30 g of detergent
3. All programmes with prewash need an additional detergent dose (5/10 g) that must be placed in the prewash detergent chamber (3). This detergent will take effect during the prewash phase.
4. Close the lid and press until it locks in place.

Detergent tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please use long programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
Do not place the tablets in the tub or in the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent dispenser.
Concentrated detergent
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be split into two basic types:
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.
- low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes. The use of 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with
concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated detergent. For this reason 50°C wash programmes in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C programmes.
Combi detergents
If you are using dishwasher detergent that includes the rinse aid function, this must be placed in the detergent compartment.
In this case the rinse aid compartment must be empty, in order to avoid a double dosage. If in the rinse aid compartment there is still rinse aid you must wait until it has finished before using these kind of detergents.
Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents
General advice
These products are detergents with integrated and combined detergent/rinse-aid and salt functions.
1. Before using these products you should first check that the water hardness in your supply is compatible with the use of these products as per the detergent manufacturers (on the product packaging).
2. These products should be strictly used according to the detergent manufacturers instructions.
3. If you encounter problems when using 3 in 1 products for the first time then please contact the detergent manufacturers care line (the telephone number is given on the product packaging).
Special advice
When using combination 3 in 1 products select the lowest possible setting for water hardness.
If you decide to turn back to the use of the standard detergent system we advise that you:
Refill both the salt container and rinse aid dispenser.
Switch the water hardness setting to the highest possible
position and run from 1 to 3 normal washing programmes without a load.
Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the
hardness of the water in your area.

the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.
7. Unloading the dishwasher
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from the appliance.
Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one.
Water may appear on the sides and door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes.
When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off.
Starting a washing programme
11
Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or
solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.
We recommend the use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner every 3 months or run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.
Regular use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner cleans inaccessible parts, eliminates unpleasant food odours and helps prevent the build-up of limescale.
Cleaning the filters
The filters must be checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will degrade the washing result.
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket.
2. The dishwasher filter system comprises a coarse/fine filter
(A/B), a microfilter (C) and a flat filter (D).
Some dishwasher will only have a coarse filter (A), a microfilter (C) and a flat filter (D).
Unlock the filter system using the handle on the microfilter, and remove.
3. Turn the handle about
1
/4a turn anticlockwise and remove.
4. Take hold of the coarse/fine filter (A/B) by the handle with
the hole and remove from the microfilter (C).
5. Clean all filters thoroughly under running water.
6. Remove the flat filter (D) from the base of the washing
compartment and clean both faces thoroughly.
7. Put the flat filter (D) back in the base of the washing
compartment.
8. Place the coarse/fine filter (A/B) in the microfilter (C) and
press together.
9. Put the filter combination in place and lock by turning the handle clockwise to the stop. During this process ensure that the flat filter does not protrude above the base of the washing compartment.
Attention!
Under no circumstances may the dishwasher be used without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results.
NEVER try to remove the upper spray arm.
If residues of soil have clogged the holes in the upper spray arm, remove them with a toothpick.
Prolonged periods of non-operation
If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are advised to:
1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.
2. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any
unpleasant smells.
3. Leave the inside of the machine clean.
Frost precautions
Avoid placing the machine in a location where the temperature is below 0°C. If this is unavoidable, empty the machine, close the appliance door, disconnect the water inlet pipe and empty it.
Moving the machine
If you have to move the machine (moving house etc....):
1. Unplug it.
2. Turn the water tap off.
3. Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.
4. Pull the machine out together with the hoses.
Avoid over tilting the machine during transportation.

Guarantee Conditions
16
Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician and/or plumber or competent person.
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine. If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a
drain.
Fitting under a counter
(kitchen worktop or sink) By removing the machine’s worktop, you can install it under a
close fitting sink unit or a pre-existing top, providing the dimensions of the recess correspond to those shown in the picture.
Proceed as follows:
Remove the machine’s worktop by unscrewing the two rear retaining screws, pull the worktop from the back of the machine and slide out the front slots, lifting the worktop.
Insert the machine after adjusting height and levelling with the adjustable feet. When inserting the machine, ensure that the water inlet and drain hoses are not kinked or squashed.
During all operations that involve accessibility to internal components the dishwasher has to be unplugged.
Be sure that once the appliance has been installed, it is easily accessible for the consumer service department.
If the dishwasher is later used as a free-standing appliance, the original worktop must be re-mounted.
The plinth on free-standing appliances is not adjustable.
Levelling
Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of the door.
When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch on either side of the cabinet.
If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.
Water supply connections
This dishwasher must be plumbed into a cold water supply. For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the
machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4" inch gas thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Press-block.
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the "Technical specifications". Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average mains pressure in your area.
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled when it is being connected up.
The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation by means of the locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted
to avoid water leaks. (Attention! NOT all models of dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut. In this case, this kind of facility is not possible).
If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.
Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been used in another appliance.
The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that prevent the wash water returning into the drinking water system and comply with the applicable plumbing regulations.

Water outlet hose connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following ways:
1. To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the underside of the work surface. This will prevent waste water from the sink running into the machine.
2. Hooked over the edge of the sink using the special curved plastic guide (if provided with the machine).
3. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal diameter 4 cm.
The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the dishwasher.
The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water.
The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is draining as this could cause the water to siphon back into the machine.
If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2 metres and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.
Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.
Attention!
Our appliances are supplied with a security device to protect against the return of dirty water back into the machine. If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve" incorporated this can prevent the correct draining of your dishwasher. We advise you therefore to remove it.
Electrical connection
This appliance must be earthed. The manufacturer declines any responsibility should this safety measure not be observed.
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for the socket, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fitted.
Important
The wires on the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green and Yellow - Earth Blue - Neutral Brown - Live
If you fit your own plug, the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals in your plug.
Proceed as follows:
1. Connect the Green and Yellow (earth) wire to the terminal
in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or the earth symbol or coloured green and yellow.
2. Connect the Blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured black.
3. Connect the Brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red.
The plug moulded onto the lead incorporates a 13amp BSI362 fuse. Only ASTAor BSI fuses should be used.
The plug must not be used if the fuse cover/carrier is lost. The cover/carrier is indicated by the coloured insert at the base of the plug.
A replacement cover/carrier must be obtained from your local Service Force Centre.
To isolate the dishwasher from mains, remove the mains plug.
Important! The plug must still be accessible after the appliance has been installed.
The appliance should not be connected to the electrical supply by means of an extension cable.
In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced, please contact your local Service Force Centre.
