Load 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 all left over food and debris.
– 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.
For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery and dishes
are not suitable:are of limited suitability:
• Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother-ofpearls handles.
• Plastic items that are not heat resistant.
• Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant.
• Bonded cutlery items or dishes.
• Pewter or copper items.
• Lead crystal glass.
• Steel items prone to rusting.
• Wooden platters.
• Items made from synthetics fibres.
– 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 non stick coatings have a tendency to retain water drops;
these items will not dry as well as porcelain
and steel items.
• Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so
they do not move.
• Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is
specially 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 cau se discolou ring and
staining on silver. Therefore always clean left-overs
from silver immediately, if it is not to be washed
straight after use.
12
Page 13
Load cutlery. For best results we recommend you
to use the cutlery grid provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery
allow it)
Place knives and other
items of cutlery with sharp
points or edges with their
handles facing upwards.
Risk of injury!
Load the lower basket. Arrange serving dishes and
large lids around the edge
of the basket.
Load upper basket. Light
items (plastic bowls etc.)
must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged
so they do not move.
For taller items, the cup
racks can be folded upwards.
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.
Maximum height of the dishes in:
upper basketlower basket
With upper basket raised20 cm31 cm
With upper basket lowered24 cm27 cm
13
Page 14
IMPORTANT!
When the basket is in the higher position you will not
be able to use the cup racks.
Move the front runner
stops (A) of the upper basket outwards and slide t he
basket out.
Refit the basket in the
higher position and replace the stops (A) in their
original position.
Use of detergent
IMPORTANT!
Only use detergents suitable for dishwashers.
Open the lid.
Observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage recommendations.
Fill in the detergent in
compartment A.
Observe the dosing levels.
14
Page 15
For programmes with prewash add an additional
detergent dose in compartmentB.
When using detergent
tablets: place detergent
tablets in compartment A.
Detergent tablets
Detergent tablets from different manufacturers
dissolve at different rates. For this reason,
some detergent tablets do not attain their full
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.
Care and cleaning
Close the lid.
cleaning power during short washing programmes. Therefore, please use long washing
programmes when using detergent tablets, to
ensure the complete removal of detergent
residuals.
• Water may appear on the sides and the door
of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will
eventually become cooler than the dishes.
CAUTION!
When the washing programme has finished, it
is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off.
Cleaning the filters
IMPORTANT!
NEVER use the dishwasher without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will
produce poor washing results.
15
Page 16
Replace the filters and
lock by turning the handle
clockwise to the stop.
Clean filters A, B and C
thoroughly under running
water.
Turn the handle about 1/4
turn anticlockwise and remove filters B and C.
Remove filter A from the
base of the washing compartment.
Cleaning the spray arms
NEVER try to remove the spray arms.
If residues of soil have clogged the holes in the
spray arms, remove them with a cocktail stick.
External cleaning
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 sol-
vent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).
16
Internal cleaning
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned
regularly with a damp cloth.
We recommend every 3 months to run the wash
programme for heavy soiled dishes using detergent but without dishes.
Prolonged periods of nonoperation
If you are not using the machine for any prolonged period of time you are advised to:
1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the
water.
Page 17
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....):
Environmental concerns
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.
Packaging material
The packaging materials are environmentally
friendly and can be recycled. The plastic components are identified by markings, e.g. >PE<,
>PS<, etc. Please dispose of the packaging
materials in the appropriate container at the
community waste disposal facilities.
CAUTION!
When a unit is no longer being used:
• Pull the plug out of the socket.
• Cut off the cable and plug and dispose of
them.
• Dispose of the door catch. This prevents
children from trapping themselves inside
and endangering their lives.

pipes which have not been used for a long time,
Inlet hose
Connect the inlet hose to a water tap with an external
thread of 3/4”.
The inlet hose 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
