machine yourself. Repairs carried out by inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious malfunctioning. Contact your local Service Force Centre. Always insist on genuine spare parts.

Disposal

Dispose of the dishwasher packaging material correctly. All packaging materials can be recycled.

Plastic parts are marked with standard international abbreviations:

>PE< for polyethylene, e.g. sheet wrapping material. >PS< for polystyrene, e.g. padding material (always CFC-

free).

>POM< for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clips. Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled paper

and should be deposited in the waste paper collection for recycling.

As and when you cease to use your dishwasher and withdraw it from service, your should render it unserviceable before having it disposed of.

Warning! Children at play could lock themselves in your dishwasher or otherwise endanger their lives. Therefore cut off the power supply cable and make the door closing device unusable to prevent children from being trapped inside.

For the disposing of the appliance please take it to a recycling centre or to your dealer who may, for a small contribution to the costs, dispose it for you.

Economical and ecological dishwashing

● Ensure that the water softener is correctly adjusted.

● Do not pre-wash under running water.

● Select the wash programme to suit the nature and degree of

the soiling on the dishes.

● Do not use more detergent, dishwasher salt and rinse aid

than is recommended in these operating instructions and by the manufacturer of the respective product.

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 dishwasher salt

5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser

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 minerals and salts, the harder your water is.

Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, Clarke degrees, French degrees and mmol/l (millimol per litre).

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 water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using the water hardness switch and electronically, using the function push buttons on the control panel.

a) Setting manually

1. Open the dishwasher door.

2. Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.

3. Turn the water hardness switch to position 1 or 2 (see

table).

4. Replace the lower basket.

The dishwasher is factory set at position 2.

b)Setting electronically

(The dishwasher must be switched off)

The dishwasher is factory set at level 5.

1. Press the On/Off button. The On/Off indicator light illuminates (setting mode).

If a programme button indicator light is on, this means that a washing programme has been set. The programme must be cancelled: press simultaneously the function buttons 2 and 3 for about 2 seconds. All the indicator lights will turn off (except for the On/Off indicator light and eventually salt and rinse aid indicator lights) indicating that the set programme has been cancelled and the machine is now in setting mode.

2. Press simultaneously function buttons 2 and 3, until the indicator lights of the function buttons 1, 2 and 3 start flashing.

3. Press the function button 1, the indicator lights of function buttons 2 and 3 turn off while the indicator light of the button

1 goes on flashing, at the same time the indicator light End of cycle starts to flash.

The current level is indicated by the number of flashes of the indicator light End of cycle (see chart).

Example: 5 flashes = level 5

4. To change the level, press button 1. Each time the button is

pressed the level changes. (For the selection of the new level see the chart).

Examples:

if the current level is 5, by pressing button 1 once, level 6 is selected. if the current level is 10, by pressing button 1 once, level 1 is selected.

After about 5 seconds the indicator light of the function button 1 starts flashing, indicating the new selected level.

5. To memorise the operation, switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button or wait about 60 seconds after which the dishwasher will automatically return to setting mode.

Filling with dishwasher 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 spilt, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.

To fill:

1. Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the

cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.

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.

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 turning it clockwise until it stops with a click.

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.

Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal.

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 pressing the release button (A).

2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The

maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".

Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill. Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an

absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.

Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

Adjusting the dose

According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).

The dose is factory set in position 4.

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 or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.

Top up the rinse aid when the indicator light on the control panel illuminates.

● If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains

rinse aid, it is necessary to deactivate the dosage of rinse aid, in order to avoid a double dosage.

Deactivation/activation of the dosage of rinse aid

(The dishwasher must be switched off)

Factory setting: dosage of rinse aid activated

When the dosage of rinse aid has been deactivated, the rinse aid indicator light on the control panel is automatically deactivated.

1. Press the On/Off button. The On/Off indicator light

illuminates (setting mode).

2. Press simultaneously function buttons 2 and 3, until the indicator lights of the function buttons 1, 2 and 3 start flashing.

3. Press the function button 2, the indicator lights of function buttons 1 and 3 turn off while the indicator light of the function button 2 goes on flashing, at the same time the indicator light End of cycle illuminates indicating that the dosage of rinse aid is active.

4. To deactivate the inflow of rinse aid, press the function button 2 again, the indicator light End of cycle turns off, indicating that the dosage of rinse aid has been deactivated.

5. To memorise the operation, switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button or wait about 60 seconds after which the dishwasher will automatically return to setting mode.

To activate the dosage of rinse aid follow the above instructions until the indicator light End of cycle illuminates.
