Cutlery basket (C): 
• With or without handle (depending 
on model).
• The cutlery basket can be removed 
to increase available space.
Please read the user instructions carefully.

• Arrange crockery so that items do not 
touch each other. Arrange large 
crockery in the lower rack and smaller 
crockery in the upper rack.
• Load cups at an angle to facilitate 
water drainage.
• Generally speaking, place cutlery in the 
basket with the handles positioned 
downwards, but ensure that any sharp 
knives and forks that might cause 
injury are placed in the basket with the 
handles positioned upwards.
• Make sure the water jet can reach all 
loaded items and that the spray arms 
turn freely.
Important
• Fill the detergent dispenser and check 
the salt and rinse aid level. 
• Do not use the appliance for items not 
suitable for washing in a dishwasher, 
for example: wooden items, aluminium, 
plastic utensils, tin, hand-decorated 
crockery (unglazed), silver cutlery.
• Do not put liquid fat in the dishwasher 
(e.g. oil used for frying) or candle wax.
• If a fault occurs or you wish to change 
the current programme, press the 
“START” button for about 5 seconds 
until the Start indicator lamp switches 
off.
• If regeneration salt is to be added,

in order to eliminate any residual salt 
(rinsing alone is not sufficient).
• Sometimes even though the 
regeneration salt container has been 
filled, the corresponding indicator lamp

wash cycle after filling with salt.

or cutlery.

.
If a fault occurs, before contacting our 
After-Sales Service, make the following 
checks to try and remedy the problem:
The dishwasher is not working:
• Is the plug properly inserted in the wall 
socket?
• Is there a power failure?
• Is the dishwasher switched on?
• Has the Start button been pressed?
• Has the delayed start timer been set 
(if fitted)?
• Is the water supply tap on? 
• Is the flow of water obstructed by 
impurities? If so, close the water supply 
tap, detach the water hose and clean the 
filter. Then re-connect the water hose to 
the tap and open the water tap once again.
• Are the filters clogged? (See “Care and 
Maintenance” chapter in the user 
instructions).
• Is the door closed properly?
• Is a fault indicated? 
(The Start indicator lamp flashes). 
Start the programme again from the 
beginning: press the Start button for 
about 5 seconds, until the Start indicator 
lamp switches off. Select a new 
programme and press the Start button.
Troubleshooting Guide
Crockery still dirty after washing:
• Was the crockery lo aded properly?
• Crockery must be loaded facing 
downwards; this is important, especially 
for large items of crockery.
• The water jets must spray the entire 
surface of all items.
• Make sure that crockery and cutlery are 
arranged properly.
• Have you selected the correct 
programme? 
• Did you use too much or too little 
detergent? (The use of poor quality 
detergents may result in less effective 
washing).
• Are the filters clogged or incorrectly 
assembled? (See “Care and 
Maintenance” chapter in the user 
instructions).
• Are the spray arms blocked or the nozzles 
clogged? (See “Care and Maintenance”  
chapter in the user instructions).
• Is the lower spray arm correctly fitted?
• Is the salt container cap (water softening 
system) screwed down?
Marked crockery:
• Is the water hardness level selector not 
properly adjusted? See (“Filling the salt 
container” in the user instructions).
• Is the salt container empty? (See “Filling 
the salt container” in the user 
instructions).
• Was insufficient detergent used? (See  
“Filling the detergent dispenser” in the 
user instructions).
Marked glasses and cutlery:
• Was too much rinse aid used? (See  
“Filling the rinse aid dispenser” in the user 
instructions).
Note:
 with some models, when the Start button 
is pressed a pre-wash cycle precedes the 
actual wash programme; this regenerates the 
water softening system.
