1)During the Auto programme, the soil level of the dishes is given by how cloudy the water is. The programme duration and consumptions can change. This depends if the appliance is fully or not and on the level of soil on the dishes. The appliance adjusts automatically the temperature of the water during the main wash.

2)This is the perfect daily programme to clean a not fully load. Ideal for a family of 4 persons who only want to load breakfast and dinner crockery and cutlery.

3)Test programme for test institutes. Please refer to separate leaflet supplied, for test data.

Consumption values

Programme	Duration (in minutes) 1)	Energy (in kWh)	Water (in litres)
	-	1,6-1,8	22-24

1) The digital display shows the programme duration.

The pressure and temperature of the water, the variations of power supply and the quantity of dishes

can change these values.

Use of the appliance

Refer to the following instructions for each step of procedure:

1.Make a check if the water softener level is correct for the water hardness in your area. If necessary set the water softener.

2.Fill the salt container with dishwasher salt.

3.Fill the rinse aid dispenser with rinse aid.

4.Load cutlery and dishes into the dishwasher.

5.Set the correct washing programme for the type of load and soil.

6.Fill the detergent dispenser with the correct quantity of detergent.

7.Start the washing programme.

If you use combi detergent tablets ('3 in 1', '4 in 1', '5 in 1', etc.), refer to the chapter 'Multitab func-

tion'.

Setting the water softener

The water softener removes minerals and salts from the water supply. Minerals and salts can have bad effect on the operation of the appliance.

Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales:

•German degrees (dH°).

•French degrees (°TH).

•mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit for the hardness of water).

•Clarke.

Adjust the water softener to the water hardness in your area. If necessary, contact your local water authority.

Instead it should be taken to the appropriate collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. By ensuring this product is disposed of correctly, you will help prevent potential negative consequences for the environment and human health, which could otherwise be caused by inappropriate waste handling of this product. For more

detailed information about recycling of this product, please contact your local council, your household waste disposal service or the shop where you purchased the product.

The packaging materials are environmentally friendly and can be recycled. The plastic components are identified by markings, e.g. >PE<, >PS<, etc. Discard the packaging materials in the applicable container at the community waste disposal facilities.

15

Warning! To discard the appliance, follow the procedure:

•Pull the mains plug out of the socket.

•Cut off the mains cable and mains plug and discard them.

Installation

•Discard the door catch. This prevents the children to close themselves inside the appliance and endanger their lives.

Warning! Make sure that mains plug is disconnected from the mains socket during

installation.

Fitting under a counter

Put the appliance adjacent to a water tap and a water drain. Remove the appliance worktop to install it under a sink unit or a kitchen worktop. Make sure that the dimensions of the recess agree with the given dimensions.

1

				4
3

Install the appliance worktop to the appliance if you want to use the dishwasher as a freestanding appliance. The plinth on freestanding appliance is not adjustable.

Adjusting the level of the appliance

Make sure that the appliance is level to close and seal the door correctly. If the level of the appliance is correct, the door does not catch on the sides of the cabinet. If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet until the appliance is level.

Water connection

Water inlet hose

Connected the appliance to a hot (max. 60°) or cold water supply.

If the hot water comes from alternative sources of energy that are more environmentally friendly (e.g. solar or photovoltaic panels and aeolian), use a hot water supply to decrease energy consumption.

Connect the inlet hose to a water tap with an external thread of 3/4”.

Caution! Do not use connection hoses from an old appliance.

The water pressure must be in the limits (refer to the chapter 'Technical data'). Make sure that the local water authority gives you the average mains pressure in your area.

Make sure that there are no kinks in the water inlet hose and that the water inlet hose is not squashed or entangled. Turn the inlet hose to the left or the right to suit the installation. Fit the locknut correctly to prevent water leaks.

Caution! Do not connect the appliance to new pipes or pipes that are not used for a long time.

Let the water run for some minutes, then connect the inlet hose.
