Notes on waste disposal
Old appliances still have some residual value. An environment-friendly method of disposal will ensure
that valuable raw materials can be recovered and used again.
When an appliance has reached the end of its working life, unplug it from the mains. Cut through the
mains cable and dispose of it together with the plug.
Destroy the door locking mechanism. This will ensure that children cannot be locked inside and are not
exposed to the risk of suffocation.
Your new appliance was protected by suitable packaging. Please dispose of all packaging materials
properly and ensure that they are kept out of children’s reach.
Do not allow children to play with any parts of the packaging. There is a risk of suffocation from the
cardboard boxes and the plastic wrapping.
Up-to -date information concerning options for disposal can be obtained from your retailer or local council.
Customer Helpline 0845 600 4632BUSH Dishwasher User Manual
General information
Measures must be taken to ensure that built-under and built-in units that are later used as free-
standing appliances cannot topple over. This can be achieved by bolting the dishwasher to the wall
or fitting it under a continuous work surface which is screwed to the adjacent cupboards.

Positioning the appliance
Positioning the appliance in the desired location. The appliance is equipped with water supply and drain
hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left of the appliance to facilitate proper installation.
Levelling the appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to level the appliance. If the
appliance is level, it will help to ensure proper performance.
Installation
fig.A
Cold water connection
Connect the water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 inch (ca. 19mm)
connector, making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see
Fig. A).
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended
period of time, let the water run for a while until the water is clear
and free of impurities.
If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet
can get blocked and damage the appliance.
Anti-Flooding protection
The dishwasher is equipped with a system that stops the supply of water in the event of a problem with
the water supply hose or leaks within the unit, in order to prevent damage to your home. If for any reason
the box containing the electrical components happens to get damaged, turn off the power supply and
unplug the appliance immediately. In order to guarantee that the anti-flooding feature operates properly,
box "A" with the water supply hose must be attached to the water supply tap as shown in Fig. B. If the
length of the hose is not adequate to make a proper connection, the hose must be replaced with one
which is long enough. This hose is available upon request from specialised retailers and approved ser-
vice centres.
fig.B
Warning
The appliance is to be connected to the
mains water using new hose sets. Old
hose sets should not be reused.

Electrical Connection
After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for your domestic electricity supply correspond
to those on the rating plate (located on the inner door of the appliance), insert the plug into an electrical
socket which is properly earthed (the earthing of the appliance is a legal safety requirement).
Caution:
The dishwasher's mains plug must be accessible even when the
appliance is installed as a built-in unit so that maintenance can be
carried out safely.
Drain hose connection
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4cm, making sure to avoid kinking or
pinching. If necessary, fit a syphon trap (U-bend) with a connecting piece for the drain hose (Fig. C). The
free end of the hose must be at a height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.
Attention:
The syphon trap (U-bend) must be fastened to the wall to prevent
the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill.

Care and maintenance
Dishwasher salt
Check the LOW salt indicator "I". Top up with salt, if required.
Regular inspection and maintenance of your appliance helps to prevent problems from occurring. This
saves time and aggravation. You should therefore carefully inspect the inside of your dishwasher from
time to time.
Overall condition of appliance
Check that no grease or scale has accumulated on the inside of the dishwasher.
If you discover any deposits, clean the interior of the dishwasher thoroughly with a dishwasher deter-
gent solution.
Rinse-aid
Check the LOW RINSE AID indicator "H", on the front panel.
Top up with rinse-aid, if required.
Filters
The filters "8" and "9" prevent larger particles of food in the
water from reaching the pump. These particles can occa-
sionally block the filters.
When the appliance has finished washing, check the fil-
ters for particles of food and, if required, clean.
After removing the coarse micro-filter "8", the filter unit
"9" can be removed. Remove any particles of food and
rinse the filters under running water.
Insert the filter unit "9" and tighten the coarse micro-filter.

Salt
The hardness of water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the appliance, deposits will form on the
dishes and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals
from the water.
How to fill the salt container
Filling the container with salt
Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.
The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:
Adjusting salt consumption
You can adjust the amount of salt used to suit the hardness of the water in your area. This is intended to
optimize the level of salt consumption so that it remains at a minimum.
To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows:
It is recommended that adjustments be made in accordance with the following table:
When the low salt indicator "1" lights, you must add salt.
Remove the lower rack and then unscrew and remove the cap from the
salt container.
If you are filling the container for the first time, fill it with water.
Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about
2 kg of salt. It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the
salt container.
Carefully screw the cap back on.

Important
To prevent the formation of rust, fill with salt just before beginning a wash cycle.
Unscrew the cap from the salt container.
There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see figure to the
side).
If necessary, rotate the ring in an anticlockwise direction from the "-"
setting towards the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water

Rinse aid
This product makes dishes sparkle and helps them to dry without spotting.
The dispenser is located on the inside panel of the door. When the low
rinse aid indicator "H" lights up, you must add rinse aid.
Adding rinse aid
Regardless of the type of detergent dispenser installed on your appliance,
you must proceed as indicated below when loading the rinse aid.
To open the dispenser, turn the cap "2" in an anti-clockwise direction and
then pour in the rinse aid, making sure not to overfill. The amount of rinse aid
used for each cycle can be regulated by turning the dose adjustor "3", located
beneath the cap "2", with a screwdriver. There are 6 different settings. The
normal dosage setting is 3.
How to fill the rinse aid container
How to fill the detergent dispenser
H
Important
Correct dosage of rinse aid improves drying. If drops of water remain on the
dishes or spotting occurs, the dosage adjustor should be turned to a higher
setting. If the dishes have white streaks, turn the dosage adjustor to a lower
setting.
Detergent
Detergent specifically intended for use with dishwashers must be
used. The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash
cycle following the instructions provided in the "Programme
overview". The detergent dispenser is located on the inside panel
of the door.
Adding detergent
To open cover "4" on the dispenser, press button "5".
The detergent for the wash cycle should be poured into com-
partment "6".
The detergent for the pre-wash cycle should be poured into com-
partment "7".
After the detergent has been placed in the dispenser, close the
cover and press down until it clicks into place.
Notice:
To facilitate closing the cover, remove any excess detergent on the
edges of the dispenser.

How to keep your dishwasher in shape
Remove the plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always switch off the electricity supply and remove the plug
from the socket.
No solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning
products. It is recommended that you 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.
Seals
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.
The door should not be left in the open position since this could present a tripping hazard.
Moving the appliance
When you go on holiday
When you go on holiday, it is recommended 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 odours from forming within the appliance.

3 in 1 function
When using "3 in 1" combination products, the rinse-aid and salt indicator lights are no longer relevant.
It may be helpful to select the lowest possible setting for water hardness.
If you decide to switch to using a standard detergent system we advise you to:
1: Refill both the salt and rinse aid compartments.
2: Switch the water hardness setting to the highest possible position and run for three normal cycles
with the appliance left empty.
3: Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the conditions of your region.
Reset drain function
You can use the "Reset" function to stop the wash cycle when running by rotating the dial to "Reset".
The appliance will stop after a few minutes drainphase.
Warning
Do not place the tablets in the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer
wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent dispenser.
Cancelling or modifying a cycle
A cycle that is underway can be modified if it has only been running for a short time. Otherwise, the
detergent may have already been used and the appliance may have already drained the wash water.
If this is the case, the detergent dispenser must be refilled (see the paragraph entitled, "Adding
Detergent").
To modify a cycle that is already underway, follow the instructions contained in the paragraph entitled
"Reset function" and select the programme you require (see the paragraph entitled "Switching the
dishwasher ON").

Not suitable for the dishwasher
What you should not put into the dishwasher
Cutlery and tableware manufactured in whole or part from wood. These will become faded and unsightly
in appearance. Furthermore, the adhesives that are used are not suitable for the temperature inside the
dishwasher.
Delicate decorative glassware and vases, special antique or irreplaceable china. The decorative pat-
terns on such items will not be dishwasher-proof.
Plastic objects that are not resistant to hot water, copper and pewter utensils are also not suitable.
Items with decorative patterns printed or painted onto the surface of crockery, glasses, etc.
Aluminium and silver items tend to become discoloured or faded if washed in the dishwasher.
Some types of glass can become opaque in appearance after they have been washed many times in a
dishwasher.
Highly absorbent materials, such as sponges and towels, should never be placed in the dishwasher.
Our recommendation
In the future, only purchase kitchenware that is dishwasher-proof.
Important
Items that have been soiled by tobacco ash, wax, lubricating grease
or paint, should not be put in the dishwasher.
Damage to glassware and other dishes
Possible causes
Type of glass or manufacturing process.
Chemical composition of detergent.
Water temperature and duration of dishwasher programme.
Use glassware or porcelain dishes that have been marked ‘dishwasher-proof’ by the manufacturer.
Use a mild detergent that is described as ‘kind to dishes’. If necessary, seek further information from
detergent manufacturers.
Select a programme with a low temperature and as short a duration as possible.
To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher as soon as possible after the
programme has ended.

Dishes arrangement in dishwasher
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove larger food particles to prevent the filter from be-
coming clogged, which results in reduced performance.
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to remove, we recommend that they are
soaked before being washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.
Pull out the rack to load the appliance.
How to use the lower rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items
on the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls,
as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of
the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray
arm.
Pots, serving bowls, etc, must always be placed face down
(see Fig. D).
fig.D
Normal daily load
fig.E
Large pots should be placed at an angle to allow the water
to flow out.
The cutlery basket can be separated (see Fig. E) so that
only one section may be used when the cutlery load is light.
This also makes space for additional pots and pans and it
can also be placed in the upper rack.
Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery basket with the
handles at the bottom. If the rack has side baskets, the
spoons should be located individually into the appropriate
slots. Especially long utensils should be placed in the hori-
zontal position at the front of the upper rack.
Warning
Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with
their points down or placed in a horizontal position.

Washing dishes
Programme selection
The most appropriate programme can be identified by comparing the type of crockery, cutlery, etc., and
the amount and condition of food residue, with the details contained in the Wash Cycle Table. The
corresponding programme sequence, duration and consumption details are shown in the right half of the
overview. For example:
Use the« normal» programme for dishes and utensils which have plenty of food residue stuck on.
Make savings
If only a small number of dishes have been loaded into the dishwasher, selecting a programme that
operates at the next lowest temperature will usually be sufficient.
Programme data
The stated programme data are based on standard operating conditions. The values can vary consider-
ably according to:
Amount of dishes.
Temperature of mains water supply.
Pressure of mains water supply.
Ambient temperature.
Fluctuations in mains voltage.
Machine-related factors (e.g. temperature, water volume).
Switching the dishwasher ON
Close the door after loading the appliance
Set On-Off button "B" to On. The indicator light "A" comes
on.
Rotate the dial to select the required programme. The time-
remaining indicator displays the time required for the
programme you have selected. After 3 seconds the appli-
ance emits a short warning signal, and starts the
programme. The indicator light "A" starts to blink.
Warning
When the dishwasher is on, if the programme to which the dial is pointing cannot
be carried out, you must rotate the dial to another programme and then back to
the programme you require.

The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter
crockery, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small
bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
How to use the upper rack
fig.G
fig.F
Shelf
Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelf
and NOT against other items to be washed.
Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack.
The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required
(see Fig. G).
Adjust the upper basket to the higher level and you have more
space to accommodate larger pans and trays in the bottom
basket.
Position items so that they do not get moved by the spray of
water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs
located on both sides of the rack itself (see Fig. F).
