Using your dishwasher
Before first use
oInstall the appliance as per the installation instructions contained
within this booklet.
oFill the water softener with 1 litre of tap water and then fill with
specialist dishwasher salt. After this you should set the water
softener level.
oFill the rinse aid dispenser and then set the rinse aid dosage.
10

Filling with dishwasher salt
IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially
designed for use in a dishwasher. If any other type of
salt is used in the appliance (in particular table salt),
it will damage the water softener.
oIdeally you should fill the water softener with salt, just before
you are about to run a wash program. This will help to clear any
salt that may have overflowed from the water softener during
the salt filling process.
oOpen the door of the dishwasher and then remove the lower
basket. The basket should be empty when you remove it.
11
oTurn the water softener cap
anticlockwise and remove it.
oPour 500ml of water into the water
softener.
IMPORTANT: It is only necessary to do
this when you fill the container with
salt for the first time.
oPour salt into the water softener,
using the funnel that is supplied with
the appliance. You should add
approximately 2 kg of salt into the
water softener.
oIt is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of
the water softener, whilst you are filling it with salt. This does
not mean that the water softener is filled with the correct
amount of salt.
oRefit and fully tighten the water softener cap.
oThe salt required warning light will go out approximately 2-6
hours after you have filled the water softener with salt. When
the salt indicator neon lights on the control panel, then you
should follow the filling with dishwasher salt procedure again.
oIMPORTANT: You do not need to pour 500ml of water into
the container when you subsequently fill the water
softener with salt.

Setting the water softener level
It is possible to regulate the amount of salt that the water softener will
release during a wash cycle. The water softener should be set to a
level that is appropriate for the hardness of your water (please refer to
the table below).
WATER HARDNESS
° dH ° fH ° Clarke Mmol/L

consumption
(gram/cycle)

25-50 44-89 31.3-62.5 4.4-8.9 Mid 40 40
>50 >89 >62.5 >8.9 + 60 25
To alter the amount of salt that is released by the water softener, you
should:-
oRemove the lower basket and unscrew the cap from the water
softener.
oLocate the ring with an arrow on it that is
located on the water softener. (See figure
opposite).
oWhen you first receive your appliance, the
arrow will be pointing to the minus symbol.
Using the water hardness chart, you should
turn the arrow to the setting that is
appropriate for your water hardness.
oThe “middle” selector position is halfway between the minus and
plus symbols.
oIMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets and live
in a medium or hard water area, then you should still fill the
water softener with salt. The water softener arrow should be
turned to the minus setting.
12

Filling with rinse aid
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse and it helps
to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes.
These droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on
items after the wash program has completed.
oYour dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aid.
oThe rinse aid dispenser is located inside the drop down door,
next to the detergent dispenser.
oTo access the rinse aid dispenser, you should turn the cap
anticlockwise and it will pop out of the hole. Then slowly pour in
liquid rinse aid, the rinse aid dispenser will hold approximately
140 ml of rinse aid.
oYou should continue to fill with rinse aid, until the level indicator
turns completely black.
oBe careful not to overfill the dispenser, as this could cause
oversudsing when a wash program is selected. Wipe away any
rinse aid excess or spillages with a damp cloth.
oReplace the cap and turn it clockwise until it locks into position.
oYou should refill the rinse aid dispenser when the rinse aid
indicator neon lights on the control panel.
oIMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets then
you should still fill the rinse aid dispenser.

Only one detergent tablet should be
placed in the dispenser at any one
time. If you are using detergent
powder or liquid, you should follow
the detergent manufacturer’s
recommendations.
oThe section marked 2 in the diagram can have separate
detergent placed in it for any wash cycle that has a pre-wash
element to it, however this is optional. This must be a liquid or
powder detergent, not another detergent tablet.
oShut the detergent dispenser lid and position the clip on the
outer edge, so that it holds the lid shut.
oAt the beginning of a wash cycle the clip will open and the
tablet/powder/liquid will enter the dishwasher.
Concentrated detergent
oThe use of the NORMAL program with concentrated detergents
reduces pollution and is good for your dishes.
oThis wash program is specifically suited to the dirt-dissolving
properties of the enzymes of concentrated detergent. For this
reason, the NORMAL program, in which concentrated detergent
is used, can achieve the same results achieved in the INTENSIVE
program.
Detergent tablets
oDifferent brands of detergent tablets dissolve at different speeds.
For this reason, some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and
develop their full cleaning power during short programs.
oIt is recommended that you use longer programs when using
detergent tablets to ensure the complete removal of detergent
residues.
15

Loading the upper basket
The upper basket is most suited to washing delicate and light
dishware, such as glasses, coffee & tea cups, saucers, plates, bowls
and shallow pans (that are not heavily soiled).
A. Cups
B. Glasses
C. Saucers
D. Small serving bowl
E. Large serving bowl
F. Dessert dish
oYou should position the
dishes and cookware in
such a way that they are
not moved by the spray of
water during the wash
cycle.
oUse the diagram above as a guide to the most appropriate way
to load the upper basket.
Adjusting the upper basket
Your dishwasher has an adjustable upper basket which you can alter to
the most suitable position for the items you are going to wash in the
upper and lower baskets.
oThe height of the upper basket can be adjusted by placing the
wheels on a different height of the rails. Long items such as
cutlery, salad servers and knives should be placed on the shelf
so they do not obstruct the rotation of the spray arms.
oIMPORTANT: The upper basket must be empty when you are
removing it from the guide supports.
oNOTE: For easier stacking of pots and pans the cup shelf spikes
can be folded down.
16

Loading the lower basket
The lower basket is most suited to washing larger and more heavily
soiled items, such as saucepans, saucepan lids and serving dishes. You
can also load bowls and a variety of plates into the lower basket.
G. Dessert dishes
H. Dinner plates
I. Side plates
J. Serving plate
oSaucepans and serving
bowls must always be
placed with their bases
upwards.
oDeep saucepans should be slanted, to allow water to run off.
Folding spikes of lower basket
oThe bottom rack has
prongs that can be folded
downwards, to allow for
easier loading of larger
saucepans and serving
bowls.
17

The cutlery basket
18
Cutlery should be placed inside of the cutlery basket. The
cutlery basket should then be placed in the appropriate
position in the lower basket.
1. Teaspoons
2. Dessert spoons
3. Soup spoons
4. Forks
5. Knives
6. Serving fork
7. Serving spoon
8. Gravy ladle
oFor the best washing performance,
cutlery should be placed through the
slots in the top of the cutlery basket.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow items of cutlery to
fall through the bottom of the cutlery basket,
as this may cause damage to the spray arm
and/or the cutlery. If the bottom of the basket
begins to deteriorate and allows items to fall
through, you should replace the cutlery
basket.
Loading dishes and cutlery
Household cloths, sponges or any other object that may
absorb water SHOULD NOT be washed in a dishwasher.
oRemove leftovers and soften the remnants of burnt food in pans,
prior to loading dishes in the appliance.
oOnce the dishwasher has been loaded, check that the spray arms
can move freely. If the spray arm comes into contact with any
item, then you should rearrange the wash load.
oCups, glasses, pans etc should all be loaded with their bases
upwards, so that water does not collect inside of them.
oCutlery and dishes should not cover each other; otherwise you
may get poor wash results.
oDo not allow glasses to touch inside the dishwasher, otherwise
damage may occur.
oSmall objects can be placed inside of the cutlery basket.

The following items are NOT suitable for washing
inside a dishwasher:-
oCutlery with a handle of mother-of-pearl, wood, horn or china.
oPlastic items that are not resistant to heat.
oCutlery that consists of glued parts that are not resistant to heat.
oCutlery items or crockery that are bonded.
oCopper or pewter items.
oLead crystal glass.
oWooden platters.
oSynthetic fibre items.
The following items are not always suitable for
washing inside a dishwasher:-
oStoneware should only be washed if the manufacturer of the
item has marked it as dishwasher safe.
oPlastic items (such as lunchboxes) should only be washed if the
manufacturer has marked it as dishwasher safe.
oGlazed crockery may fade with repeated washing inside of a
dishwasher.
oItems made of silverware or aluminium can discolour when
washed inside a dishwasher.
oAny food residue should be removed from silver items
immediately, as this can also result in discolouration.
oCertain types of glass may become dull or cloudy after a large
number of washes.
