Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

ensure that the electrical and water

connections comply with the installation

instructions

remove all packaging from inside the appliance

set the water softener

fill the salt container

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,

for example German 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.

You may change the factory level setting by means

of the wash programme selector buttons. Each

button corresponds to a different level:

Level 1 = “Rinse and Hold” button

Level 2 = “Intensive” button 70°

Level 3 = “Normal” button 65°

Level 4 = “Economy” button 55°

Level 5 = “Quick” button 55°

To select a different level proceed as

follows:

- Press the Normal 65° and Quick 55°

programme buttons simultaneously for about 5

seconds until the short “instruction accepted”

signal is heard. The pilot light corresponding to

the current level flashes very rapidly.

- Press the programme button corresponding to

the required level.

- 5 seconds after having last pressed any of the

programme buttons, the dishwasher

memorises the level selected and returns to

the programme setting mode.

Water hardness

If you use phosphate free detergents containing

enzymes, use salt starting from 4°dH (7°TH).

Filling with salt

If your water is "level 1" it is already soft and

therefore there is no need to use salt.

Salt must be used from “level 2” upward.

Only use salt specifically designed for use in

dishwashers.

Other types of salt may reduce the efficiency of the

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:

➀ To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt

container.

➁ Pour about 1 litre of water inside the container,

or until it is full (this is necessary only before

filling with salt for the first time).

➂ Then using the funnel provided, pour in the salt

until the container is full (approx. 1 kg).

Do not worry if water over flows from the unit

when filling with salt, this is quite normal.

➃ Replace the cap making sure that there is no

trace of salt on the screw thread or on the

gasket.

➄ Screw on the cap tightly.

The salt container will require topping up

periodically.

You are reminded of this by the “Salt refill indicator

light” on the control panel which comes on when

the salt has finished.

The “Salt refill indicator light” on the control

panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours

after the salt has been replenished, assuring

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 through 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:

➀ Open the container by turning the lid (A)

anticlockwise.

➁ Add the rinse aid until the container is

completely full (approx. 110 ml). The indicator

(B) will be completely dark.

➂ 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

department. 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.
