Position the machine close to a water tap or drain. You need
to place your machine, so 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 certain clearance from 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.
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.

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 to always turn off the water inlet tap after
each wash programme is finished.

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, our company will not
accept responsibility.
Customer Helpline: 0345 257 7271

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, our
company 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. If the mains voltage in
your location is 110 V, connect a transformer of 110/220 V and 3000
W inbetween. 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 authorised
service or an authorised electrician only. Failure to do so may lead to
accidents.
For safety purposes, always make sure to disconnect the plug
when a wash programme is finished.
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.

Customer Helpline: 0345 257 7271

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.
•Set the water softener.
•Add 2 kg salt into the salt compartment and fill with water up to a level at which it will almost
overflow.
•Fill the rinse aid compartment.
The importance of water decalcification
For a good washing function, the dishwasher needs soft, i.e. less calcareous water. Otherwise, white
lime residues will remain on the dishes and the interior equipment. This will negatively affect your
machine’s washing, drying and shining performance. When water flows through the softener system,
the ions forming the hardness are removed from the water and the water reaches the softness
required to obtain the best washing result. Depending on the level of hardness of the inflowing water,
these ions that harden the water accumulate rapidly inside the softener system. Therefore, the
softener system has to be refreshed so that it operates with the same performance also during the
next wash. For this purpose, dishwasher salt is used.
Filling with salt
Use softener salt specifically produced
for use in dishwashers. To fill softener
salt, first remove the lower basket and
then open the salt compartment cap by
turning it counter clockwise. (Diagram 1)
2 At first fill the compartment with 2kg
salt and water so it just overflows
(Diagrams 2 and 3 ) the funnel provided
will make filling4 easier. Refit the cap and
close it. If the salt warning lamp on the
control panel is lit fill the salt compartment
with salt again.
Fill the salt compartment with water
on first use only.
If you put a tablet into the salt
compartment, do not fill the
compartment completely. We
recommend that you use small-grained
or powder softener salt.
Do not put table salt into your machine,
otherwise, the function of the softener
compartment may decrease over time. When you start your dishwasher, the salt compartment gets
filled with water. Therefore, put the softener salt prior to starting your machine.
This way, overflowing salt gets immediately cleaned up through the wash operation. If you are not
going to wash any dishes immediately after putting in salt, then run a short washing program with an
empty machine in order to avoid any damage ( to prevent corrosion ) to your machine due to the salt
overflow while filling in the salt container.

Testing strip
The washing effectiveness of your machine depends on the softness of the tap water. For this reason,
your machine is equipped with a system that reduces the hardness in mains water supply. The
washing effectiveness will increase when the system is correctly set. To find out the water hardness
level of water in your area, contact your local water company or determine the water hardness level
by using the test strip(if available).

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 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 the detergent
manufacturer directly.
Filling the detergent compartment
Push the latch to open the detergent container as shown in
the image.The detergent pod has level lines inside. It is possible
to measure the right detergent amount using these lines.
The detergent pod can take a maximum of 4 0 cm 3
deterg ent.
Open the dishwasher
detergent and pour
into the larger
compartment a 25 cm3
if your dishes are
heavily soiled or 15
cm3 if they are less soiled.2 If your dishes have been
kept dirty for a very long time, or if there is dried food
waste on them, or if you have fully loaded the
dishwasher, pour a 5cm3 detergent 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 and
on the water hardness level in your area.
Combined detergents
Detergent manufacturers also manufacture combined detergents that are called 2 in 1 – 3 in
1- 5 in 1 etc ...
Generally, combined detergents produce sufficient results under certain usage conditions only.
Such detergents contain rinse aid and/or salt in preset amounts.
Points to consider when using this type of product:
•Always make sure to check the specifications of the product you will use or whether or not
it is a combined product.
•Check if the detergent used is appropriate for the hardness of mains water that the machine is
connected to.
•Observe the instructions on the packaging 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.
