Using your dishwasher
Before first use
oInstall the appliance as per the installation instructions contained
within this booklet.
oFill the water softener with 1 litre of tap water and then fill with
specialist dishwasher salt. After this you should set the water
softener level.
oFill the rinse aid dispenser and then set the rinse aid dosage.
Filling with dishwasher salt
IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially
designed for use in a dishwasher. If any other type of salt is
used in the appliance (in particular table salt), it will damage
the water softener.
oIdeally you should fill the water softener with salt, just before
you are about to run a wash program. This will help to clear any
salt that may have overflowed from the water softener during
the salt filling process.
oOpen the door of the dishwasher and then remove the lower
basket. The basket should be empty when you remove it.
oTurn the water softener cap
anticlockwise and remove it.
oPour 1 litre of water into the water
softener container.
IMPORTANT: It is only necessary to do this when you fill
the container with salt for the first time.
oPour salt into the water softener, using
the funnel that is supplied with the
appliance. You should add
approximately 1.2 kg of salt into the
water softener container.
11

oIt is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of
the water softener container, whilst you are filling it with salt.
This does not mean that the container is filled with the correct
amount of salt.
oRefit and fully tighten the water softener cap.
oThe salt required warning light will go out approximately 2-6
hours after you have filled the water softener with salt. When
the salt indicator neon lights on the control panel, then you
should follow the filling with dishwasher salt procedure again.
oIMPORTANT: You do not need to pour 1 litre of water into
the container when you subsequently fill the water
softener with salt.
Setting the water softener level
It is possible to regulate the amount of salt that the water softener will
release during a wash cycle. The water softener should be set to a
level that is appropriate for the hardness of your water (please refer to
the table below).
To alter the amount of salt that is released by the water softener, you
should:-
oRemove the lower basket and unscrew the cap from the water
softener container.
oLocate the ring with an arrow on it that is
located on the water softener container. (See
figure opposite).
oWhen you first receive your appliance, the
arrow will be pointing to the minus symbol.
Using the water hardness chart, you should turn
the arrow to the setting that is appropriate for
your water hardness.
12

4. The “middle” selector position is halfway between the minus and
plus symbols.
oIMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets and live
in a medium or hard water area, then you should still fill the
water softener container with salt. The water softener arrow
should be turned to the minus setting.
Filling with rinse aid
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse and it helps
to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes.
Water droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on
items after the wash program has completed.
oYour dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aid.
oThe rinse aid dispenser is located inside the drop down door,
next to the detergent dispenser.
oTo access the rinse aid dispenser,
you should turn the cap anticlockwise
and it will pop out of the hole. Then
slowly pour in liquid rinse aid, the
rinse aid dispenser will hold
approximately 140 ml of rinse aid.
oYou should continue to fill with rinse aid, until the level indicator
turns completely black.
oBe careful not to overfill the dispenser, as this could cause
oversudsing when a wash program is selected. Wipe away any
rinse aid excess or spillages with a damp cloth.
oReplace the cap and turn it clockwise until it locks into position.
oYou should refill the rinse aid dispenser when the rinse aid
indicator neon comes on.
oIMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets then
you should still fill the rinse aid dispenser.
13

Setting the rinse aid level
The amount of rinse aid that the dishwasher requires also depends on
the hardness of your water. You should experiment with the rinse aid
setting, until you find a level that gives the best results.
oOn the first wash cycle, we would recommend
that the rinse aid level is set to number 2.
oIf you get water spots and poor drying performance, then you
should turn the arrow anticlockwise and increase the setting to
the next number.
oYou should continue to adjust the rinse aid level upwards until
you get no water spots.
oIf you get cloudiness or streaking on your dishes, the rinse aid
level is set too high and it is causing foaming during the wash
cycle. Turn the arrow clockwise and lower the setting to the next
number.
Filling with dishwasher detergent
The detergent dispenser must be refilled at the start of each wash
cycle (apart from the Rinse wash program).
oOpen the lid that closes over the detergent dispenser and place
the detergent inside of the dispenser.
oThe section marked 1 in the diagram is for the main wash cycle
detergent. Only one detergent tablet should be placed in the
dispenser at any one time. If you are using detergent powder or
liquid, you should follow the detergent manufacturer’s
recommendations.
14

oThe section marked 2 in the diagram can have separate
detergent placed in it for any wash cycle that has a pre-wash
element to it, however this is optional. This must be a liquid or
powder detergent, not another detergent tablet.
oShut the detergent dispenser lid and position the clip on the
outer edge, so that it holds the lid shut.
oAt the beginning of a wash cycle the clip will open and the
tablet/powder/liquid will enter the dishwasher.
Loading the upper basket
The upper basket is most suited to washing delicate and light
dishware, such as glasses, coffee & tea cups, saucers, plates, bowls
and shallow pans (that are not heavily soiled).
1. Cups
2. Small serving bowl
3. Large serving bowl
4. Glasses
5. Saucers
6. Dish
7. Dessert dishes
oYou should position the dishes and cookware in such a way that
they are not moved by the spray of water during the wash cycle.
oUse the diagram on the previous page as a guide to the most
appropriate way to load the upper basket.
15

Adjusting the upper basket
Your dishwasher has an adjustable upper basket which you can alter to
the most suitable position for the items you are going to wash in the
upper basket.
The height of the upper basket can be adjusted by pulling the handle
on either side of the basket upwards until it clips into place.
Position 1 (upper position) oFor accommodating items such
as glass tumblers and wine
glasses. Wine glasses should be
placed upside down, so that the
stem of the glass rests in one of
the grooves on the side flap.
Position 2 (lower position) oFor accommodating additional
tumblers, cups and mugs. You
can also place small, expresso
sized cups on top of the side
racks. Care should be taken to
make sure that there is enough
clearance between the top of the
cups placed on top of the side
racks and the underneath of the
dishwasher interior.
oPlease note that when the basket
is in the upper position, you
cannot have the side flaps in a
raised position. Otherwise the
basket will not slide back into the
interior of the dishwasher.
Maximum height of
dishes (upper basket) Maximum height of dishes (lower basket)
With upper
basket raised 19 cm 30 cm
With upper
basket lowered 24 cm 25 cm
16

IMPORTANT: Care should be taken to make sure that the spray
arms can move freely when items have been loaded into the
baskets.
Loading the lower basket
The lower basket is most suited to washing larger and more heavily
soiled items, such as saucepans, saucepan lids and serving dishes. You
can also load bowls and a variety of plates into the lower basket.
7. Dessert dishes
8. Serving plate
9. Dinner plates
10. Soup bowls
11. Cutlery basket
oSaucepans and serving bowls must always be placed with their
bases upwards.
oDeep saucepans should be slanted, to allow water to run off.
oThe bottom rack has prongs at the
rear of the basket that can be
folded downwards, to allow for
easier loading of larger saucepans
and serving bowls.
17

The cutlery basket
Cutlery should be placed inside of the cutlery basket. The cutlery
basket should then be placed in the appropriate position in the lower
basket.
1. Forks
2. Soup spoons
3. Dessert spoons
4. Teaspoons
5. Knives
6. Serving spoon
7. Ladle
8. Serving fork
oFor the best washing performance, cutlery should be placed
through the slots in the top of the cutlery basket.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow items of cutlery to fall through
the bottom of the cutlery basket, as this may cause
damage to the spray arm and/or the cutlery. If the bottom
of the basket begins to deteriorate and allows items to fall
through, you should replace the cutlery basket.
18

Loading dishes and cutlery
Household cloths, sponges or any other object that
may absorb water SHOULD NOT be washed in a
dishwasher.
oRemove leftovers and soften the remnants of burnt food in pans,
prior to loading dishes in the appliance.
oOnce the dishwasher has been loaded, check that the spray arms
can move freely. If the spray arm comes into contact with any
item, then you should rearrange the wash load.
oCups, glasses, pans etc should all be loaded with their bases
upwards, so that water does not collect inside of them.
oCutlery and dishes should not cover each other; otherwise you
may get poor wash results.
oDo not allow glasses to touch inside the dishwasher, otherwise
damage may occur.
oSmall objects that are suitable for washing can be placed inside
of the cutlery basket.
19

inside a dishwasher:-
oCutlery with a handle of mother-of-pearl, wood, horn or china.
