A. Water Softener
The water softener is designed to remove minerais and salts from the water, which would have a
detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. The higher the content of these
minerais and salts, the harder the water is. The softener should be adjusted according to the
hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of
the water in your area.
Setting
The amount of sait dispensed can be set from HO to H7.
Salt is not required al the set value HO.

B. Loading the Salt into the Softener
Always use sait intended for using with dishwasher.
NOTE: If your model has no water softener, you may skip this section
WATER SOFTENER
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the
dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses salts specifically
designed to eliminate lime and minerais from the water.
The sait container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as follows:
Attention!
Only use sait specifically designed for use in dishwashers! Ali other types of sait not specifically
designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table sait, will damage the water softener. ln case of
damages caused by the use of unsuitable sait the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is
liable for any caused damages.
Only fill with sait just before starting one of the complete washing programmes.
This will prevent any grains of sait or salty water, which may have been split, remaining on the
bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
After the first wash cycle the control panel light expires.
A. Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the sait container.n
B. If you are filling the container for the first lime, fill 2/3 of ils volume with water (around
500ml).lfJ
--------

C. Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2kg of sait. lt is
normal for a small amount of water to corne out of the sait container.
D. Carefully screw the cap back on.
E. Usually, the sait warning light will be off in 2-6 days after the sait container is filled with sait.
NOTE: 1. The sait container must be refilled when the sait warning light in the control panel cornes
on. Though the sait container is filled enough, the indicator light may not black out before
the sait fully dissolve. If there is no sait warning light in the control panel (for some models),
you can judge when to load the sait into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher had
run (see the following schema).
2. If there are spills of the sait, a soak program could be run to wipe them out.
C. Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
Function of Rinse Aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, spot and streak
free drying.
Attention!
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other
substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.
When to Refill the Rinse Aïd Dispenser
If there is no rinse-aid warning light on the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by
he color of the optical level indicator "D" located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is
ull, the whole indicator will be dark .As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases.
ou should never let the rinse aid get below 1 / 4 full.
As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot
on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

RINSE AID DISPENSER
r-D (Rinse-Aid indicator)
--------
B To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.
H Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, be careful not to overfill.
m Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the "closed" (right)
arrow.
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes
that can leave spots and streaks. lt also improves drying by allowing water to sheet off the dishes.
Your dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the
door next to the detergent dispenser.
To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator
turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid container is about 140ml.
Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any spills
with a damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.
Attention!
Clean up any rinse aid split during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the
next wash.
Adjusting Rinse Aïd Dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser has four or six settings. Always start with
the dispenser set on "4" If spots and poor drying are problems,
increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the
dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "5". If the dishes still are not
drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher
number until your dishes are spot-free. The dose is factory set in
position 5.
Adjust lever
(Rinse)
NOTE: lncrease the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife
blades.
D. Function of Detergent
Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out
of the dishwasher. Most of commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.
Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher can be split in two basic types:
■conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
The use of "Eco" washing programme in conjunction with concentrated detergents reduces pollution
and is good for your dishes; these washing programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving
properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason"Eco" washing programme
in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be
achieved using"intensive" programme.
Detergent Tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent
--------

cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power du ring short programmes. Therefore please
use long programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent
residuals.
Detergent Dispenser
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each washing cycle following the instructions
provided in the Wash Cycle Table. Your dishwashers use less detergent and rinse aid than
conventional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash
load. Aise, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before
starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.
Amount of Detergent to Use
NOTE:
M If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid springs open.
H Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle. Only use branded detergent aid
for dishwasher.
1 �s:�=�
l
� � � ent is corrosive• Jake care to keep it out of reach of children
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.
Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.
Fill in the detergent
Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent.
The marking indicates the dosing levels , as
illustrated on the right:
M The place of main wash cycle detergent placed,
"MIN"means approximately 20g of detergent.
H The place of pre-wash cycle detergent placed ,
approximately 5g of detergent.

Please observe the manufacturer's dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the
detergent packaging.
Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent dose in the pre-wash detergent
.,.
This delecgeot will lake etrecl d"""• the pce-wash phase.
NOTE:
Vou find information about the amount of detergent for the single programme on the last page.
Please be aware that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of water, differences
are possible.
Please observe the manufacturer's recommendations on the detergent packaging.
Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents
1.With phosphate and with chlorine
2.With phosphate and without chlorine
3.Without phosphate and without chloride
Normally new pulverized detergent is without phosphate. The water softener function of phosphate
is not given. ln this case we recommend to fill sait in the sait container even when the hardness of
water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate were used in case of hard water often white
spots appear at dishes and glasses. ln this case please add more detergent to reach better results.
Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not removed
completely. ln this case please choose a programme with higher temperature.

li 7. Maintenance and cleaning
Filtering System
2
3
The filter is used to avoid the big remnants and other sundries getting inside
the pump. The residue can obstrue! the filter in sometime.
The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a fiat
(Main filter) and a micro filter (fine filter).
1 Flat filter
Food and debris will be trapped by a special jet
on the lower spray arm.
2 Coarse filter
Big debris, such as bone and glass that could clog the
drain will be trapped in the coarse filter.
To remove an item caught in this filter, gently squeeze
the taps on the top of this filter and lift it out.
3 Micro filter
This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area
and prevents it from being redeposit on the dishes
during a cycle.
-lnspect the filters for obstructions every time the
dishwasher has been used.
-By unscrewing the coarse filter, you can remove
the filter system. Remove any food remnants and
clean the filters under running water.
Step 1, contrarotate the
Coarse filter ,and then lift it up;
Step 2: lift the Flat filter up
NOTE: If operate from step 1 to step 2, the filter system will be removed; while operate from step 2
to step 1, the filter system will be installed.
Filter assembly
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned. The filter efficiently removes
food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it
is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing
the semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull on the cup
handle in the upward direction. The enlire filter assembly should be cleaned once a week. To clean
the coarse filter and the micro filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown
in the figures above and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in ils seat and
pressing downward. The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. lmproper replacement
of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
A

How to Keep Your Dishwasher in Shape
After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply
to the appliance and leave the door slightly
ajar so that moisture and odors are not
trapped inside.
Remove the Plug
Before cleaning or performing
maintenance, always remove the plug from
the socket. Do not run risks.
No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of
the dishwasher, do not use solvents or
abrasive cleaning products. 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.
 Attention:
The installation of the pipes
and electrical equipments
should be done by professionals.
li a. Installation
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 suppl y and leave the
door of the appliance slightly ajar. This
will help the seals last longer and
prevent odors from forming in the
appliance.
Moving theAppliance
If the appliance must be moved, try to
keep it in the vertical position. If
absolutely necessary, it can be
positioned on its back.
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.
 Warning
Electrical Shock Hazard!
Disconnect electrical power before
installing dishwasher.
Failure to do so can result in death or
electrical shock.
A
Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference. If the appliance is sold,
given away or moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the machine, so that the
new owner may benefit from the advice contained within it.
A
Please read this instruction manual carefully: it contains important information regarding
the safe installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.
A
If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an upright position; if absolutely
necessary, it may be tilted onto its back.
Positioning and leveling
1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and check that it has not been damaged during
transportation. If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed and further
with the installation process.
2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or back panel are in contact with the
adjacent cabinets or even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single
worktop.
3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the
appliance may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position (the angle of inclination must not
exceed 2 degrees). If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to
move or cause vibrations and noise while it is operation.
Connecting the water and electricity supplies
A
Connection to the water and electricity supplies should only be performed by a qualified
technician.
A
The dishwasher should not stand on top of the water hoses or the electricity supply cable
A
The appliance must be connected to the water supply network using new piping. Do not
use old piping.
* Connecting the water in let hose
Connecting the water outlet hose
Electrical connection
Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4(inch)
connector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place.
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an
extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that
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 the appliance could be damaged.
Fit the drainage hose of your machine to the drainage pipe
without bending.
If the length of the hose is not sufficient, apply to the
authorized service for an extension made from the same
material as the original. Remember that the length of the
hose should not exceed 4meters even when with an
extension.
If the drainage hose is longer the 4 m. the dishes will not
be cleaned properly secure your hose firmly to the drainage
pipe to avoid it coming off during the washing process.
Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, make sure that:
ethe socket is earthed and complies with current regulations;
ethe socket can withstand the maximum load of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate
located on the inside of the door(see description of the appliance);
ethe power supply voltage falls within the values indicated on the data plate on the inside of the door;
ethe socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If this is not the case, ask an authorised
technician to replace the plug (see assistance); do not use extension cables or multiple sockets.
_*_F_o,_o_p_tio_n_a_l -----------------------------

A
Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply cable and the electrical socket
should be easily accessible.
A
The cable should not be bent or compressed.
Âlf the power suppl y cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
Technical Assistance Service in order to prevent all potential hazards.(See Assistance)
A
The company shall not be held responsible for any incidents that occur if these
regulations are not observed.
Advice regarding the first wash cycle
After the appliance has been installed, immediately before running the first wash cycle, completely
fill the sait dispenser with and add approximately 2 Kg of sait (see Rinse aid and refined sait). The
water may overflow: this is normal and is not a cause for concern. Il is also normal that the LOW
SALT indicator light continues to flash for a few cycles after the sait has been loaded.
Positioning the Appliance
Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind il, and
the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and
drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.
Leveling the Appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the height of the
dishwasher, making it level. ln any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2°
NOTE: The maximum adjustment height of the feet is 20 mm.
How to Drain Excess Water From Hases
If the sink is 1000mm higher from the floor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly
into the sink. Il will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or a suitable
container that is held outside and lower than the sink.
Water Outlet
Connec! the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.
Ensure that the water inlet hose is not kinked or squashed.
Extension Hase
If you need a drain hose extension, observe to use a similar drain hose ..
lt must be no longer than 4 metres; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be
reduced.
Syphon Connection
The waste connection must be at a height of between 50cm (minimum) and 100cm (maximum)
from the bottom of the dish. The water drain hose should be fixed by a hose clip.
Start of Dishwasher
