Installation
Water
p
ressure
For best operating results, incoming water
pressure should be between 0.04 and 1 Mpa.
Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of
hot clean water and detergent (under pressure)
against the soiled surface of dishes. The water
is pumped through a rotating spray arm, drained
through a filter removing food and soiled
particles and pumped back through the spray
arm.
To prevent dishwasher damage, the temperature
of the incoming water supply should not exceed
60°C.
Note: Hard water conditions will adversely affect
the performance of your dishwasher. To
minimise this condition, it is recommended to
periodically operate/rinse the dishwasher in
empty condition using 1 cup of white vinegar (at
least once a week).
Important: Once you open the water
supply (even if it is closed immediately
thereafter), the water inlet hose will be
pressurised.

User Instructions
Before first use
Before using your appliance for the first time:
ySet the water softener
yPour ½ litre of water inside the salt container
and then fill with dishwasher salt
yFill the rinse aid dispenser
yFill in detergent
Water Softener
The dishwasher is designed with a softener to
eliminate the minerals and lime from the water
supply. The hardness of the water supply varies
from place to place and will affect the
dishwasher performance. The amount of salt
consumed can be adjusted based on the
hardness of the water used. This is intended to
optimise and customize the level of salt
consumption.
Adjusting salt consumption
1.Unscrew and remove the cap from the salt
container.
2.There is a ring on the container with an arrow.
Rotate the ring in anticlockwise direction from
“-“ sign towards “+” sign, based on the table at
right.
Loading the salt into softener
1. Remove the lower basket and then unscrew
and remove the cap from the salt container.
(Fig 1)
2. Fill 1L of water into the salt container.
3. Place the funnel end (supplied) into the hole
and add around 1kg of salt. It is normal if a
small amount of water coming out from salt
container. (Fig 2)
4. Screw the cap tightly back clockwise.
5. Immediately after filling the salt, a washing
cycle should be started (soak or rapid
program suggested). Otherwise the filter
system or pump may be damaged by salty
water.
Important:
yOnly use dishwasher salt
yAdd the salt again when the salt warning light
at control panel is on.
yIt takes time to dissolve the salt so the salt
warning light may still come on even the salt
container is filled.

User Instructions
Before first use
Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for use in
dishwashers, as other types may damage the
dishwasher.
The dispenser must be filled before the start of
each wash cycle following the instructions
provided in the wash cycle table. Your
dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid
than conventional dishwasher. Generally, only
one tablespoon of detergent is sufficient for a
normal wash load. Heavily soiled items need
more detergent. Always add the detergent just
before the start of the dishwasher, otherwise it
could get damp and will not dissolve properly.
Loading the detergent
1.The detergent dispenser (recessed area)
located at the inside of the door.
2.Open the lid by pressing the release button.
3.Pour the detergent. The marking indicates the
dosing levels:
A– Detergent for main wash cycle. ‘MIN’
means approximately 20g of detergent.
B– Detergent for pre-wash cycle,
approximately 5g of detergent.
4.Close the lid until it locks in place.
Note: follow the detergent manufacturer’s
guidelines. Dishwasher detergent is corrosive!
Keep it out of reach of children.

Preparing your dishes prior washing
yScrape off all food residuals from the dishes.
yRemove excessive quantities of oil or
grease.
yEmpty any liquids from glasses and cups.
yDishes with dried-on foods are more difficult
to wash and may not come clean in a
normal wash cycle.
yArrange all items with recessed or curved
sections on a slant to drain water away.
yCups, pots and glasses etc should be
placed upside down.
Loading the upper basket
The upper basket is designed to hold more
delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses,
coffee and tea cup and saucers, plates, small
bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are
not too dirty). Position the dishes and
cookware so that they do not get moved by
the spray of water.
Adjusting the upper basket
The height of the upper basket can be
adjusted in order to create more space for
large utensils both for the upper/lower basket.
The height of the upper basket can be
adjusted by placing the wheels on different
height of the rails. Long items, serving cutlery,
salad servers and knives should be placed on
the shelf so that they do not obstruct the
rotation of the spray arms. The shelf can be
folded back or removed when not in use

Loading your dishwasher
User Instructions
Loading the lower basket
yPut large items which are most difficult to
clean into the lower basket.
yLocate sharp items so that they are not likely
to damage the door seal.
yLoad sharp knives with the handles up to
reduce the risk of injuries.
yDo not load plastic items unless they are
marked "dishwasher safe" or the equivalent.
yDo not load glasses over the dish rack pins.
Glasses loaded over dish rack pins are not
properly supported and are likely to get
damaged.
yItems with wooden or bone handles and items
joined together with glue are unsuitable as
they cannot resist hot water.
Folding spikes
For better stacking of pots and pans, the spikes
can be folded down as shown in right.
Cutlery basket
Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery basket
with the handles at the bottom. If the rack has
side baskets, the spoons should be loaded
separately into the appropriate slots, especially
long utensils should be placed in horizontal
position at the front of the upper basket as
shown.
