use the delayed start key. You can choose between a delay time
of 1 hour up to 19 hours. Each press of the key changes the delay
time.
▷The display shows the delayed start time.
• Then select the desired program and close the door of the
dishwasher.
• To cancel the delayed start, either change the delayed start time
to ‘’0h’’ or hold the Program touch key for 3 seconds. The display
will count down how many seconds to hold the key for in order to
cancel the delay, “3-2-1”.
• Press and hold the delayed start key to change the delayed start
time more quickly. How longer the key is pressed how faster the
time will change. When the delayed start key is pressed for a long
period of time, the delayed start time will stop at “h:00”.

EN 11
Regeneration salt (water softener)
This machine is equipped with a water softener. To use the water
softener, fill the dishwasher with salt.
• After first having removed the lower basket, loosen the cap of the
reservoir (1 and 2).
• Prior to filling up the reservoir for the first time, pour one litre of
water in it.
• Place the funnel in the reservoir opening. Pour about 1 kg of salt
in it. It is normal for a little water to flow out of the opening when
doing this. Note! Clear up any spilled salt and always run a full
cycle immediately afterwards to prevent damage to the bottom.
• Carefully tighten the cap of the reservoir.
Note! Always fill the salt reservoir and adjust the water hardness setting
before using the dishwasher. Refill the salt reservoir when the water
softener indicator lights up. It is possible that the light will remain lit for
a short while after the salt reservoir is filled. It will go out automatically
when enough salt has been dissolved in the water.
Setting the water hardness
1. Press and hold the program key. Switch on the dishwasher
simultaneously with the On/Off key.
▷Keep the program key pressed until “SL” disappears from the
display.
▷Your machine displays the latest entered water hardness setting.
2. The water hardness can be adjusted by the program key (see
‘Water hardness table’).
3. After selecting the desired setting, press the On/Off key.
▷The set value is stored in the memory.

Your local water authority can inform you how hard your mains water is.
Adjustments can then be made according to the above table.
The standard water hardness level is set at level 3.
Rinse agent reservoir
Rinse agent is added during the final rinse. Rinse agent prevents traces of
water droplets being left behind on the clean dishes. Moreover, it ensures
that the dishes dry quicker, since the water drains off more easily.
The dishwasher is designed for use with liquid rinse agent. The rinse
agent reservoir is located on the inside of the door, alongside the
detergent compartment. Use only rinse-aid for domestic dishwashers.
Filling the rinse-aid and setting
To fill the rinse aid compartment, open the rinse-aid compartment cap.
Fill the compartment with rinse aid to the MAX level and then close the
cap.
Be careful not to overfill the rinse aid compartment and wipe up any
spills.

EN 13
OPERATION
In order to change the rinse aid level, follow the below steps
before turning on the machine:
1. Push the programme button and hold it down.
2. Turn on the machine.
3. Hold down the programme button until all leds blink twice.
▷Rinse aid set follows water hardness set.
▷The machine will display the current setting.
4. Set the level by pushing the programme button.
5. Switch off the machine to save the setting.
The factory setting is “4”.
• If the dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, increase the
level. If blue stains form on your dishes, decrease the level.

Dishwasher detergents
The chemicals in the dishwasher detergents remove the dirt, break it
down and make sure that the dirt is drained from the dishwasher. Most
dishwasher detergents available in stores are suitable for this purpose.
Warning!
Dishwasher detergent is a corrosive product. It should therefore be kept
out of the reach of children. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately
and take the packaging with you.
Concentrated detergent
Based on their chemical composition, 2 different types of concentrated
detergent can be distinguished:
• Conventional alkaline detergents with corrosive ingredients.
• Low-alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.

EN 14
The use of concentrated dishwasher detergent in combination with
“normal” wash programs produces less contamination and is good for
your dishes: these wash programs are specifically geared to the dirt-
dissolving characteristics of the enzymes in the concentrated dishwasher
agent. This means that “normal” wash cycles with concentrated
detergent achieve the same results as an intensive wash cycle.
Dishwasher tablets
Dishwasher tablets from different manufacturers dissolve at different
rates. This means that, during short wash cycles, certain types of
dishwasher tablet do not fully dissolve, as a result of which their
cleaning action is reduced. Dishwasher tablets should therefore chiefly
be used in combination with long wash cycles, so that the dish washer
tablet has time to fully dissolve.
When you switch from dishwashing tablets to a traditional dishwashing
agent, you have to make sure that the salt reservoir and the rinse agent
reservoir are completely filled.
Detergent compartment
Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse agent than conventional
dishwashers. Generally speaking, just one measuring spoon of detergent
powder is needed for a normal wash cycle. Use more detergent if your
dishes are more heavily soiled. Fill the soap compartment immediately
prior to starting the cycle. Filling it prior to this may result in the detergent
becoming damp and therefore not fully dissolving.
Note! The Program selection table shows the amount of detergent
required for the different cycles. These are averages. A different dosage
may be necessary, depending on the hardness of the water and how
soiled the dishes are.

Filling
DETERGENT
1. Press the release catch if the lid is closed.
The lid will slide open.
2. Fill the detergent compartment immediately prior to starting a wash cycle.
The markings in the detergent compartment indicate the dosage.
• The container has a capacity of maximum 45 gr.
Fill up the container with 25 gr. of the detergent for very dirty dishes
and 15 gr. for normal dishes.
Use only detergents that are specifically designed for dishwashers. Store
the detergent in a cool and dry place. Only fill the detergent compartment
with detergent when you are running a wash cycle immediately afterwards.

EN 16
LOADING
Loading the baskets
Using the upper basket
• The upper basket is designed for fragile, light dishes, such as
glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small bowls and shallow (not
particularly dirty) pans.
• Place the dishes in the basket in such a way as to ensure they
cannot move when sprayed. The height of the upper basket can be
adjusted.
Height adjustment upper basket
Top basket of your machine is in upper position. When it is in this
position, you can place big items such as pans, etc. on the lower
basket. When you take the top basket to a lower position, you can
place and wash big sized plates on the top basket.
1. Hold the basket on both sides and pull it up or push it down.
▷In loaded basket adjustment mechanism, make sure that both
sides are in the same position (up or down).
12
Using the lower basket
We advise you to place large objects that are hardest to clean in the
lower basket: pots, pans, pan lids, oven dishes and bowls. Casserole
dishes and pan lids should preferably be placed at the side of the basket.
This will ensure that they do not obstruct the spray arm when it is turning.
• Saucepans, serving dishes etc. must always be placed upside
down in the basket.
• Deep bowls should be tilted, with the opening facing downwards to
allow water to escape.
• The lower basket can be adjusted to allow for larger, or more, pots
and pans.
