INSTALLING THE MACHINE
Positioning the machine
When determining the place to put your machine
, take
care to choose a place where you can easily load and unload
your dishes.
Do not put your machine in any location where there is the
probability for the room temperature to fall below 0°C.
Before positioning, take the machine out of its packaging by
following the warnings located on the package.

10
Position the machine close to a water tap or drain. You
need to site your machine, taking into consideration that its
connections will not be altered once they are made.
Do not grip the machine by its door or panel in order to move
it.
Take care to leave a clearance on all sides of the
machine so that you can comfortably move it back and forth
during cleaning.
Make sure that the water inlet and outlet hoses do not get
squeezed while positioning the machine. Also, make sure
that the machine does not stand on the electrical cable.
Firstly place your machine into position then
adjust the
machine’s adjustable feet so that it can stand level and
balanced. Proper positioning of the machine ensures
problem-free opening and closing of its door.
If the door of you machine does not close properly, check if
the machine is stable on the floor if not, adjust the adjustable
feet and ensure its stable .
Water connection
Be sure that the indoor plumbing is suitable for installing a
dishwasher. Also, we recommend that you fit a filter at the
entrance of your place or apartment so as to avoid any damage
to your machine because of any contamination (sand, clay,
rust etc.) that might be occasionally carried in through the
mains water supply or the indoor plumbing, and to forestall
such complaints as yellowing and formation of deposits after
washing.

11
Water inlet hose
Do not use the water inlet hose of your
old machine,if any. Use the new water inlet
hose supplied with your machine instead.
If you are going to connect a new or long
- unused water inlet hose to your machine
,run water through it for a while before
making the connection. Connect the water
inlet hose directly to the water inlet tap.
The pressure supplied by the tap should
be at a minimum of 0.03 Mpa and and at a
maximum of 1 Mpa.If the water pressure is
above 1 Mpa,a pressure-relief valve should
be fitted inbetween.
After the connections are made, the tap should be turned on
fully and checked for water tightness.For the safety of your
machine, make sure you turn the taps off if your machine is left
unused for an extended period of time.
NOTE: Aquastop water spout is used
in some models. In case of using
Aquastop, a dangerous tension exists.
Do not cut Aquastop water spout. Do
not let it get folded or twisted.

12
Water outlet hose
The water drain hose can be connected
either directly to the water drain hole
or to the sink outlet spigot. Using a
special bent pipe (if available), the
water can be drained directly into the
sink via hooking the bent pipe over
the edge of the sink. This connection
should be at a minimum of 50 cm and
at a maximum of 110 cm from the floor
plane.
Warning: When a drain hose longer than 4 m is used, the
dishes might remain dirty. In that case, Award will not
accept responsibility.

13
Electrical connection
The earthed plug of your machine should be connected to
an earthed outlet supplied by suitable voltage and current. If
there is no earthing installation, have a competent electrician
carry out an earthing installation. In case of usage without
earthing installed, Award will not be responsible for
any loss of usage that might occur.
The indoor fuse current value should be 10-16 A.
Your machine is set according to 220-240 V.
The machine should not be plugged in during positioning.
Always use the coated plug supplied with your machine.
Running in low voltage will cause a decline in washing quality.
The machine’s electrical cable should be replaced by an
Awa rd authorised service centre or an authorised electrician
only. Failure to do so may lead to accidents.
For safety purposes, always make sure you disconnect
the plug if your machine is left unused for an extended period
of time.
In order not to cause an electric shock, do not unplug when
your hands are wet.
When disconnecting your machine from the mains supply,
always pull from the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

Follow the list of instructions as provided with the kit.

Prior to using the machine for the first time
•Check whether the electricity and supply water specifications match the values indicated by the
installation instructions for the machine.
•Remove all packaging materials inside the machine.
•Fill the rinse aid compartment.
17
Detergent usage
Use a detergent specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers.
You can find powder,gel,and tablet detergents in the market that have been designed for
household dishwashers.
Detergent should be put into the compartment prior to starting the machine. Keep your
detergents in cool, dry places out of reach of your children.
Do not fill detergent into the detergent compartment more than required; otherwise it may cause
scratches on your glasses as well as lead to a poorly dissolved detergent.
Should you need more information concerning the detergent you will use, contact detergent
manufacturers directly.
Filling the detergent compartment
Push the latch to open the detergent container as shown in the
image. 1centre as impedes on line above.Detergent pod has
level lines inside. It is possibl
e to
measure the right
detergent amount using
these lines. Detergent
pod can take totally 40
cm3detergent.
Open the dishwasher
detergent and pour into
the larger compartment b25cm3if your dishes are
heavily soiled or 15 cm3if they are less soiled.2centre
as impedes on line above
If your
dishes have been kept dirty for a very long time, if there
are dried food wastes on them, and if you have a overly
loaded dishwasher, pour a5cm3detergent into the pre-wash compartment and start your
machine.
You may have to add more detergent into your machine, depending on the degree of soil.
Combined detergent
Detergent manufacturers also produce combined detergents called “2 in 1”, “3 in 1” or “5 in 1”
etc.
“2 in 1” detergents contain detergent or rinse aid. When using “2 in 1” detergents make
sure to check the specifications of the tablet.
Other tablet detergents contain detergent + rinse aid + various extra functions.
Generally, combined detergents produce sufficient results under certain usage conditions only.
Such detergents contain rinse aid in preset amounts.
Points to consider when using this type of products:
•Always make sure to check the specifications of the product you will use or whether or not
it is a combined product.
PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE
Warning: Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline.
They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact
with skin and eyes and keep children away from the dishwasher
when the door is open.

•They produce good results for certain types of usage only. If you are using this type of
detergents, you need to contact the manufacturers and find out about the suitable
conditions of use.
•When the conditions of use of such products and the machine settings are appropriate,
they ensure savings in rinse aid consumption.
•Contact the detergent manufacturers if you are not obtaining good wash results (if your
dishes stay calcareous and wet) after having used 2 in 1 or 3 in 1 detergents. The scope of
warranty for your machine does not cover any complaints caused by the use of these types
of detergents.
Recommended usage: If you want to obtain better results while using combined detergents,
add rinse aid into your machine and adjust the rinse aid setting to the lowest position.
Solubility of the tablet detergents produced by different companies can vary
depending on the temperature and time. Therefore, it is not recommended to use such
detergents in short programs. It is more suitable to use powder detergents in such
programs.
Warning: Should any problem, which you have not encountered before, arise with the use of
this type of detergents, contact the detergent manufacturers directly.
When you give up using combined detergents
•Fill the rinse aid compartment.
• Run an empty-wash.
• Make the suitable rinse aid setting
Filling with rinse aid and making the setting
Rinse aid is used to prevent the stay of white water drops, lime
stains, white film strip-shaped stains that may form on the dishes, as
well as to increase the drying performance. Contrary to the popular
beliefs, it is used not only for obtaining shinier dishes but also for
obtaining sufficiently dried dishes. For this reason, care should be
taken that there is adequate amount of rinse aid in the rinse aid
compartment and only polishing material produced for use at
dishwashers should be used.
If the rinse aid lamp on the control panel comes on fill the rinse aid
compartment with rinse.
To put rinse aid in, remove the rinse aid compartment cap by turning it.1Fill the rinse aid
compartment with rinse aid until the rinse aid level indicator becomes dark;2refit the cap and
close it by turning it in a way that the nails will correspond to one another. By checking the rinse
aid level indicator on the detergent dispenser, you can understand whether or not your machine
needs rinse aid. A dark indicator b means that there is rinse aid in the compartment, while a
light indicator ashows that you need to fill the compartment with
rinse aid.
The rinse aid level adjuster can be set
to a position between 1 and 6. Factory
settingforrinseaidistheposition3.
You need to increase the degree of the
adjuster if water stains form on your
dishes after a wash, whereas you need
to decrease the degree if a blue stain
is left when wiped by hand.3

Observe the instructions on packagings when using such products.
If such detergents are in the form of tablets, never put them into the interior section or the
cutlery basket of the dishwasher. Always put the tablets into the detergent compartment in
the detergent dispenser.

Warning: Use only those rinse aid materials which are allowed for use in the machine. As rinse
aid residues left as a result of overflowing will create extremely high amounts of foam and thus
reduce the washing performance, remove the excess amount of rinse aid by wiping it with a rag.
If you properly place your dishes into the machine, you will be using it in the best way in terms
of energy consumption, washing and drying performance.
There are two separate baskets for you to load your dishes into your machine. You can load into
the lower basket such round and deep items as pots with long handles, pot lids, plates, salad
plates, cutlery sets.
The upper basket has been designed for tea plates, dessert plates, salad bowls, cups and
glasses. When placing long-stem glasses and goblets, lean them against the basket edge, rack
or glass supporter wire and not against other items. Do not lean long glasses against one
another or they cannot remain steady and may receive damage.
It is more appropriate to locate the thin narrow parts into the middle sections of baskets.
You can place spoons among the other cutlery sets in order to prevent them from sticking to
one another. You are recommended to use the cutlery grid in order to obtain the best result.
To avoid any possible injuries, always place such long-handle and sharp-pointed dishes as
serving fork, bread knife etc. with their sharp points facing down or horizontally on the baskets.
Warning: Place your dishes into your machine in a way that they will not prevent the upper and
lower spray arms from spinning.
