Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
A. Set the water softener
B. Pour 1／2 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with dishwasher salt
C. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
D. Function of detergent
The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness dial.
The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, whichwouldhave
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. 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.
Adjusting Salt Consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on
the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize the level of
salt consumption so that the salt consumption could be set proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the cap from the salt container
2. There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see
figure to the side), if necessary, rotate the ring in the
anticlockwise direction from the “-”Setting toward the
“ ”sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.
It is recommended that adjustments should be made in
accordance with the following schema:

Always use salt intended for use with dishwasher.
The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:
Attention!
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers! All other typesof
salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher,especially table salt, will
damage the water softener. In case of damages caused by the use of unsuitable
salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any caused
damages.
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 split,
remaining of the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause
corrosion.
After the first wash cycle the control panel light expires.
A Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.
B If you are filling the container for the first time, fill 2/3 of its volume with water (around 500ml).
C Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 1,2kg of salt. It is
Normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.
D Carefully screw the cap back on.
E Usually, the salt warning light will be off in 2-6 days after the salt container be filled with salt.
NOTE:
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot
andstreakfreedrying.
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any
other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage
the appliance.
5
The salt container must be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on.1.
Though the salt container is filled enough, the indicator light may not black out
before the salt fully dissolve.
If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some models) , you can judge when to load
the salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher had run (see the foregoing schema ).
2. Iftherearespillsofthesalt,asoakprogramcouldberuntowipethemout.

To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.
Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.
Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes
that can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to sheet off the dishes.
Your dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the
door next to the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into
the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The volumeoftherinseaidcontainer
is about 140ml.
Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any spills
with a damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.
Attention!
Clean up any rinse aid split during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming
during the next wash.
The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always start with the dispenser set on
“2”. If spots and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed
by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to “3”. If the dishes still are not
drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes
are spot-free. We suggest you to set on “4”(Factory value is “4”)
NOTE:
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 onglasswareor
knife blades.

If there is no rinse-aid w arning light in the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the color of the optical level
indicator "D" located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole indicator will be dark .As the rinse-aid
diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1 / 4 full.

Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher can be split in two basic types:
conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
The use of “normal” washing programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents
reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched
to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason
“normal”wash programmes in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the
same results that can otherwise only be achieved using “intensive” programmes.
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some
detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short
programmes. Therefore please use long programmes when using detergent tablets, to
unsure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions
provided in the Wash Cycle Table? Your dishwashers use less detergent and rinse aid
then conventional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for
a normal wash load. Also, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the
detergent just before starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve
properly.
Amount of Detergent to Use
Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle.
Only use branded detergent aid for dishwasher.
If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid springs open.
Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children.
Proper Use of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh
and dry. Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.

Concentrated Detergent
Detergent Tablets
Detergent Dispenser
Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and
transport it out of the dishwasher. Most of commercial quality detergents are suitable
for this purpose.

Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent.
The marking indicates the dosing levels , as
illustrated on right:
The place of main wash cycle detergent placed ,
“MIN”means approximately 20g of detergen.
The place of pre-washcycle detergent placed,
approximately 5g of detergent
Please observe the manufacturers dosing and storage
recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent dose in the pre-wash detergent
chamber. This detergent will take effect during the pre-wash phase.
You findinformation about the amount of detergent for thesingle programmes on the
last page. Please aware, that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of
water differences are possible.
Please observe the manufacturer's recommendations on the detergent packaging.
There are 3 sorts of detergents
1.With phosphate and with chlorine
2.With phosphate and without chlorine
3.Without phosphate and without chloride
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. The water softener function of
phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when
the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate were used in case of hard
water often white spots appear at dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent
to reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured
spots will not removed completely. In this case please choose a programme with higher
temperature.

Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children's reach.
Always add the detergent in the dispenser just before starting the dishwasher.

For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines. Features and
appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model.
Scrape off any large amounts of leftover food. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under
running water. Place objects in the dishwasher in following way:
1.Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are stood upside down.
2.Curve items, or those with recesses, should be at a slant so that water can run off.
3.They are stacked securely and can not tip over.
4.They do not prevent the spray arms from rotating while washing takes place.
Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the racks.
To prevent water dripping from the upper back into the lower back, we recommend that you
empty the lower basket first and then the upper back.
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee
and tea cup and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as longastheyare
not too dirty).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.
Attention before or after Loading the Dishwasher Racks

1.Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON/OFF button.
2.Turn off the water tap!
Open the door carefully. Hot steam may escape when the door is opened!
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down around
15 minutes before removing from the appliance.
Openthedishwasher'sdoor,leaveitajarandwaitafewminutesbeforeremoving the dishes.
In this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.
Unloading the dishwasher
It is normal that the dishwasher is wet inside.
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.
Close the door, then press the start/pause button ,the
dishwasher will work after ten second.
Premise: A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it
has only been running for a short time. Otherwise,
the detergent may have already been released,
and the appliance may have already drained the
wash water. If this is the case, the detergent dispenser
must be refilled (see the section entitled " Loading
the Detergent " ).
Press Start/Reset button more than three seconds the machine will
be in stand by state ,then you can change the program to
the desired cycle setting (see the section entitled " Starting a wash cycle...").
NOTE: If you open the door when washing, the machine
will pause. When you close the door and press the
Start/Reset Button, the machine will keep on working
after 10 seconds. The process indicator lights show
the state of the dishwasher:

The filter prevent larger remnants of food or other objects from getting inside the pump. This residue can
occasionally clog up the filters.
The filter system consists of a coarse filter,a flat (Main filter)
And a microfilter(Fine filter).
Main filter
Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are pulverized by a
special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down the
drain.
Coarse filter
Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that could clog
the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To remove an item
caught in this filter, gently squeeze the taps on the top of this
filter and lift it out.
Fine filter
This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area and
prevents it from being redeposit on the dishes during a cycle.
- Inspect the filters for obstructions every time the dishwasher has been used.
- By unscrewing the coarse filter.you can remove the filter system.Remove any food remnants and clean the
filters under running water.

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the spray
arm jets and bearings. To remove the spray arms, screw off the nut clockwise to take out the
washer on top of the spray arm and remove the arm. Wash the arms in soapy and warm water
and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing them thoroughly.
Cleaning the Spray Arms
Caring for the Dishwasher
To clean the control panel use a lightly dampened cloth then dry thoroughly. To clean the exterior
use a good appliance polish wax.
Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
Protect Against Freezing
If your dishwasher is lefted in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technical to:
1.Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.
2.Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
3.Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)
4.Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
5.Remove the filter in the tub the bottom and use a sponge to use up water in sump.
Filter assembly
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned. The filter efficiently
removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For
this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each
wash cycle by rinsing the semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter
assembly, pull on the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter assembly should be
cleaned once a week.
To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the filter
parts as shown in the figures left and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning
in its seat and pressing downward.
The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may
reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place. When cleaning the filters, don't knock on
them. Otherwise, the filters could be contorted and the performance of dishwasher could be
debased.

18
Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel for it could damage the door lock and electrical components. It is not allowed
to use the abrasive agent or some paper towel becauseof the risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the
appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that
moisture and odors are not trapped inside.
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always
remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher,
do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products.
Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the
interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little
white vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically
for dishwashers.
When you go on holiday, it is recommened that you run a
wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove
the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and
leave the door of the appliance slightly ajar. This will help
the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming
within the appliance.
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical
position.If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on
its back.
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the
dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals.
Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this
from occurring.
To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp rag. To prevent
penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner
of any kind.
Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they will
scratch the finish. Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on thesurface.
After making sure that the voltage and the frequency values for the current in the home
correspond to those on the rating plate and that the electrical system is sized for the
maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is
earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not
appropriate for the , replace the socket,rather than using a adaptors or thelikeas
they could cause overheating and burns.
