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 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 degrees, French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).
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 3. If this level is not suitable for your area the softener
should be adjusted.
To select a different level be sure that the dishwasher is off and then proceed as follows:
1. Press INTENSIVE SID 80 and NORMAL
programme push buttons simultaneously.
2. While keeping the programme push buttons
INTENSIVE SID 80 and NORMAL pressed
switch on the dishwasher by pressing the ON-OFF push button. The ON-OFF indicator light comes on. At the same time, also the indicator light of the INTENSIVE SID 80 comes on and remains fixed for about 5 seconds, after this it starts flashing indicating the current level of the water softener.

The current level is indicated by the number of flashes made by the INTENSIVE SID 80 indicator light, that alternates 5 seconds off with a number of flashes, this for about 60 seconds.
Example:
1 flash = level 1 2 flashes = level 2 3 flashes = level 3 4 flashes = level 4 5 flashes = level 5
3. To change the level, press the INTENSIVE SID 80 programme push button. Each time the push button is pressed the level changes.
Example:
if the current level is 3, by pressing the INTENSIVE SID 80 programme push button once, level 4 is selected.
The INTENSIVE SID 80 indicator light remains off for about 5 seconds after which it starts flashing indicating the new level selected.
4. To memorise the new level, switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON-OFF push button.
If your water is level 1 it is already soft and therefore there is no need to use salt. With the setting of the water softener at level 1 the salt indicator light on the control panel will always remain off. Use salt from level 2 upwards.
From level 2 upwards, if salt refilling is necessary, the salt indicator light will illuminate only in setting mode and at the end of the washing programme. During the run of the programme it will remain off.
Page 8

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 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 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. 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.
You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel which comes on when the salt has finished.
The salt indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has been replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains switched on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then this can take longer. The function of the machine is not affected.

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 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 rinse aid indicator
light on the control panel illuminates.
If rinse aid refilling is necessary, the rinse aid indicator light will illuminate only in setting mode and at the end of the washing programme. During the run of the programme it will remain off.
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).
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 two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can be easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls.
To lower the prongs:
- Slightly pull them upward and let them drop down
(see picture).
- To bring them back to the standing position, just
pull them up again.

The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard. These items should only be placed in the removable knife basket. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives.
Removable knife basket
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be placed horizontally in the removable knife basket provided, to be positioned at the rear of the upper basket.
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.
The cutlery basket is in two parts which can be separated to give greater loading flexibility. To separate the two parts, slide them horizontally in opposite directions and pull them apart. To reassemble, reverse the procedure.
For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grids provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it).
The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 25 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 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.

In case that plates are loaded in the upper basket:
load them starting from the rear positions of the basket; tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door.
Adjusting the height of the upper basket
If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 32 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. Pull out the basket until it stops.
2. Carefully lift both sides upwards until the
mechanism is engaged and the basket is stable.
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.
To lower the basket to the original position proceed as follows:
1. Pull out the basket until it stops.
2. Carefully lift both sides upwards and the allow the
mechanism to drop back slowly , keeping hold of it.
Never lift or lower the basket on one side only.
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 which are available in the following options:
Finish Double Action Tablets. Each tablet has the exact amount of detergent required, simply place in the dispenser.
Finish Powder recommended for every day use. Finish Liquid Gel ideal for every day use. As the
gel is extra gentle it is recommended for fine bone china.
If using powder detergents proceed as follows:
1. Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D).
2. Add the detergent according to the instructions
given in the Washing programmes chart. As all detergents are not the same, you should also consult the instructions on the packet.
3. Always close the lid.
4. If the programme has a prewash add the
required detergent in the SID detergent dispenser, located in the centre of the upper basket.
If using detergent in tablets proceed as follows:
1. For all programmes; place 1 tablet inside the
detergent dispenser.
2. Always close the lid.
3. For all programmes with prewash; place a portion
of a further tablet on the lid of the detergent dispenser.
Insufficient quantities of detergent will produce poor washing results, whereas an excessive amount of detergent will not improve washing results and is also wasteful. Using no more than the correct amount also contributes to reducing pollution.

Compact detergents with enzymes
In these compact powders the environmentally unfriendly components have been replaced by natural enzymes and other more biodegradable substances.
The enzymes deploy their full dirt dissolving power at a temperature as low as 50°C. By choosing the ECONOMY programmes you can therefore achieve the same cleaning results that would
otherwise be achievable only with 65°C programmes and conventional detergents.
Page 14
14
To save energy
Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing.
Do not prewash dishes under running water. Select the QUICK A 30 programme when dishes are
not very soiled, following the instructions given in the "Washing programmes" chart.
Select the HALF LOAD option if only a few dishes need washing. Remember to load the dishes in both baskets.
For best washing results
Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very heavily soiled pots and pans.
Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. upside­down.
Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the water drains off easily.
Avoid contact between the dishes as far as possible.
Items not suitable for dishwashers
The following items should not be washed in the dishwasher (unless they are sold as dishwasher proof):
- Cutlery with wooden or horn handles or glued parts
- bronze cutlery
- saucepans with wooden handles
- aluminium ware
- crystal ware
- leaded glass
- plastic items
- antique or fine decorated china
Certain types of decoration can discolour when washed in a dishwasher.
Crystal-ware and plastic objects, if not guaranteed dishwasher proof should be washed by hand.
Certain types of glass can also become opaque after being washed several times in a dishwasher.
A chemical reaction can occur between silver cutlery and stainless steel cutlery. As a precaution, do not wash together.
Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items.
Aluminium tends to go black, copper, pewter and brass tend to stain.
If in doubt check with manufacturer of the item. When buying new dishes, ensure that they are dishwasher proof.

8a. Setting and starting the
programme without DELAY START
Press the push button corresponding to the required programme: the indicator light corresponding to the programme illuminates and the phase indicator lights for that programme start flashing.
Select, if required, the HALF LOAD option. The start of the programme will occur after
about 6 seconds from the last pressure of a push button (programme or HALF LOAD push button), in this time it is possible to change programme simply pressing the push button of another programme.
Once the programme has started the phase indicator lights will turn off except for the phase under way.
It is possible to interrupt the programme by:
opening the door
pressing the ON-OFF (in this case all the
indicator lights turn off)
Close the door again or press the ON-OFF, the programme will start from the point in which it was interrupted.
8b. Setting and starting the

It is now possible to select a new washing programme.
10. At the end of the washing programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop and the phase indicator light end of programme will come on.
The indicator light of the programme just ended will remain on.
The dishwasher has finished the programme only when the end of programme indicator light is illuminated. If you do not wait for the end of the programme it will not be possible to start a new programme if first you do not cancel the previous. (For instructions on how to cancel a programme see point 9)
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON­OFF push button.
Wait 15/20 minutes before opening the dishwasher’s door; in this way you will avoid burning yourself removing the dishes and avoid also the damage of the nearby furniture caused by the escape of steam.
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.
Important! In general it is not advisable to open the door while the machine is working; if the door is opened however, a safety device ensures that the machine stops. Care must be taken if the door is opened during the hot phase or immediately after a programme has finished, as steam may escape.
When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off.
Page 18
18
Internal cleaning
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 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 central filter
(After each wash)
Scraps of food may accumulate in the drain filter (A) and should be removed by rinsing the filter under running water.
To remove the drain filter
- simply pull it out by the handle.
Once cleaned, refit the filter by pushing it back to its original position until it engages.
Cleaning the large filter
(Every week)
If necessary clean the large filter (B) on both sides under running water, using a brush.
To remove the large filter
1. Remove the spray arm by pulling it upwards on
one side.
2. Turn the column (C) anticlockwise by 90° and
then slide out the filter.
3. Once cleaned refit it following the above
instructions in reverse order.
4. Ensure the filter is in its original position, the
handle of the drain filter should be pointing towards the front of the appliance.
The dishwasher must not be used without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results. Cleaning the filters is vital to ensure correct operation of the machine.

Check that the SID is not clogged with detergent residue. If necessary rinse it under running water after having removed it from the basket by twisting it anticlockwise and pulling it upwards.
Fasten it back onto the support by turning it clockwise.
Never use your dishwasher without the SID dispenser. Since SID also ensures correct distribution of the water to the upper spray arm, running the dishwasher without it will impair the washing results.
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 solvent (acetone,
trichloroethylene etc....).
Prolonged periods of non­operation
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. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
3. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of
any unpleasant smells.
4. 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.

Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out an engineer.
The dishwasher is fitted with a number of alarm systems which can help you to quickly determine the cause of any problems.
The dishwasher will not start or stops during operation. All push buttons are inoperative except for the ON-OFF push button. The indicator light of the programme under way and one or more of the phase indicator lights (WASH, DRY, END OFPROGRAMME) are flashing.
Press the ON-OFF push button to switch off the dishwasher and carry out the following suggested corrective actions listed below.
Once the checks have been carried out switch on the dishwasher and start a washing programme, if the fault code reappears in the digital display, contact your local Service Force Centre.
Important: If you call out an engineer to a fault listed below or to repair a fault caused by incorrect use or
installation a charge will be made, even if the appliance is in guarantee.

Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person.
Any plumbing work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified plumber or competent person.
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain.
Water supply connections
This dishwasher must be plumbed into a cold water supply.
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 dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation.
Do not use, for the connection, old hoses which have been used in another appliance.
The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.
Avoid bends or kinks in the hose which could prevent or slow down the water supply.
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. This will prevent deposits of sand or rust clogging the inlet hose filter.

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 if necessary
with a clip.
2. 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.

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 from the front and slide out the rear 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.
