INSTALLATION
ATTENTION: 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.
CONNECTING THE WATER SUPPLY
Adaptation of the water supply for installation should only be
performed by a qualied technician.
The water inlet and outlet hoses may be positioned towards the
right or the left in order to achieve the best possible installation.
Make sure the dishwasher does not bend or squash the hoses.
CONNECTING THE WATER INLET HOSE
• Run the water until it is perfectly clear.
• Screw the inlet hose tightly into position and turn on the tap.
If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or
an authorised technician.
The water pressure must be within the values indicated in the
Technical Data table - otherwise the dishwasher may be function
properly.
Make sure the hose is not bent or compressed.
SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE CONNECTION OF THE WATER
SUPPLY HOSE:
CONNECTING THE WATER OUTLET HOSE
Connect the outlet hose to a drain duct with a minimum diameter
of 2 cm A.
The outlet hose connection must be at a height ranging from
40 to 80 cm from the oor or surface where the dishwasher rests.
Before connecting the water outlet hose to the sink drain, remove
the plastic plug B.
ANTI-FLOODING PROTECTION
Anti-ooding protection. To ensure oods do not occur, the dishwasher
is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply in
the event of anomalies or leaks from inside the appliance.
Some models are also equipped with the supplementary safety
device New Aqua Stop, which guarantees anti-ooding protection
even in the event of a supply hose rupture.
Under no circumstances should the water inlet hose be cut as it
contains live electrical parts.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
WARNING: Under no circumstances should the water inlet
hose be cut as it contains live electrical parts.
Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, make sure that:
• The socket is earth and complies with current regulations;
• The socket can withstand the maximum load of the appliance
as shown on the data plate located on the inside of the door
(see PRODUCT DESCRIPTION).
• The power supply voltage falls within the values indicated on
the data plate on the inside of the door.
• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance.
If this is not the case, ask an authorised technician to replace the
plug (see AFTER-SALES SERVICE). Do not use extension ca-
bles or multiple sockets. Once the appliance has been installed,
the power supply cable and the electrical socket should be easily
accessible.
The cable should not be bent or compressed.
If the power supply cable is damaged, have it replaced by the
manufacturer or its authorised Technical Assistance Service in
order to prevent all potential hazards.
The Company shall not be held responsible for any incidents, if
these regulations are not observed.
POSITIONING AND LEVELLING
1. Position the dishwasher on a level sturdy oor. If the oor is
uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted until
it reaches a horizontal position. 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 operating.
2. Before recessing the dishwasher, stick the adhesive transparent
strip under the wooden shelf in order to protect it from any con-
densation which may form.
3.Place the dishwasher so that its sides or back panel are in
contact with the adjacent cabinets or the wall. This appliance
can also be recessed under a single worktop.
4.To adjust the height of the rear foot, turn the red hexagonal
bushing on the lower central part at the front of the dishwasher
using a hexagonal spanner with an opening of 8 mm. Turn the
spanner in a clockwise direction to increase the height and in
an anticlockwise direction to decrease it.

FIRST TIME USE
SALT, RINSE AID AND DETERGENT
ADVICE REGARDING THE FIRST TIME USE
After installation, remove the stoppers from the racks and the
retaining elastic elements from the upper rack.
FILLING THE SALT RESERVOIR
The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the
dishes andon the machine’s functional components.
• It is important that the salt reservoir be never empty.
• It is important to set the water hardness.
The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher
(see PRODUCT DESCRIPTION) when the green oat on the cap
of the salt reservoir is no longer visible.
1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew
the reservoir cap (anticlockwise).
2. Only the rst time you do this: ll
the salt reservoir with water.
3. Position the funnel (see gure) and
ll the salt reservoir right up to its
edge (approximately 1 kg); it is not
unusual for a little water to leak out.
4. Remove the funnel and wipe any salt residue away from the
opening.
Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can
get into the container during the wash program (this could damage
the water softener beyond repair).
As soon as this procedure is complete, run a program without
loading. The “Pre-Wash” program alone is NOT sufcient.
Residual saline solution or grains of salt can lead to corrosion,
irreparably damaging the stainless steel components.
The guarantee is not applicable if faults are caused by such
circumstances.
Only use salt that has been specically designed for dishwashers.
If the salt reservoir is not lled, the water softener and the
heating element may be damaged as a result.
Whenever you need to add salt, we recommend carrying out
the procedure just before the washing cycle is started.
SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS
To allow the water softener to work in a perfect way, it is essen-
tial that the water hardness setting is based on the actual water
hardness in your house. This information can be obtained from
your local water supplier.
The factory setting is for average (2) water hardness.
• Switch on the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
• Switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
• Hold down button P for 5 seconds, until you hear a beep.
• Switch on the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
• The program indicator light of the current set level ashes.
• Press button P to select the desired hardness level (see
WATER HARDNESS TABLE).
• Switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
Setting is complete!
FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER
Rinse aid makes dish DRYING easier. The rinse aid dispenser A
should be lled when the dark optical indicator on the dispenser
door Cbecomes transparent.
1. Open the dispenser B by pressing and pulling up the tab on
the lid.
2. Carefully introduce the rinse aid as far as the maximum
(110 ml) reference notch of the lling space - avoid spilling it.
If this happens, clean the spill immediately with a dry cloth.
3. Press the lid down until you hear a click to close it.
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the tub.
ADJUSTING THE DOSAGE OF RINSE AID
If you are not completely satised with the drying results, you can
adjust the quantity of rinse aid used.
• Switch the dishwasher on using the ON/OFF button.
• Switch it off using the ON/OFF button.
• Press button P three times - a beep will be heard.
• Switch it on using the ON/OFF button.
• The program indicator light of the current set level ashes.
• Press button P to select the level of rinse aid quantity to be
supplied.
• Switch it off using the ON/OFF button
Setting is complete!
If the rinse aid level is set to ZERO (ECO), no rinse aid will be
supplied. The LOW RINSE AID indicator light will not be lit if you
run out of rinse aid. A maximum of 4 levels can be set according
to the dishwasher model. The factory setting is for a medium level.
• If you see bluish streaks on the dishes, set a low number (1-2).
• If there are drops of water or limescale marks on the dishes,
set a high number (3-4).
FILLING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER
Only use detergent which has been specically designed for
dishwashers.
To achieve the best washing and drying results, the combined
useof detergent, rinse aid liquid and rened salt is required.
We recommend using detergents that do not contain phosphates
or chlorine, as these products are harmful to the environment.
Good washing results also depend on the correct amount of
detergent being used.
Exceeding the stated amount does not result in a more effective
wash and increases environmental pollution.
The amount can be adjusted to the soil level. In the case of
normally soiled items, use approximately either 35g (powder
detergent) or 35ml (liquid detergent) and additional tea spoon of
detergent directly inside the tub. If tablets are used, one tablet
will be enough.
If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if it has been rinsed with
water before being placed in the dishwasher, reduce the amount
of detergent used accordingly (minimum 25 g/ml) e.g. skip the
powder/gel putted inside the tub.

LOADING THE RACKS
TIPS
Before loading the baskets, remove all food residues from the
crockery and empty the glasses. You do not need to rinse before-
hand under running water.
Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place rmly and does
not tip over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing
downwards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus
allowing the water to reach every surface and ow freely.
Warning: lids, handles, trays and frying pans do not prevent the
sprayer arms from rotating.
Place any small items in the cutlery basket. Very soiled dishes
and pans should be placed in the lower basket because in this
sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher washing
performance.
After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can
cotate freely.
UPPER RACK
Load delicate and light dishes:
glasses, cups, saucers, low
salad bowls.
(loading example
for the upper rack)
FOLDABLE FLAPS WITH ADJUSTABLE POSITION
The side foldable aps can be positioned at
three different heights to optimize the arrange-
ment of crockery inside the rack.
Wine glasses can be placed safely in the folda-
ble aps by inserting the stem of each glass into
the corresponding slots.
For optimum drying results incline the foldable aps
more. To change the inclination, pull up the foldable
ap, slide it slightly and position it as you wish.
ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF THE UPPER RACK
The height of the upper rack can be adjusted:
high position to place bulky crockery in the lo-
wer basket and low position to make the most
of the tip-up supports by creating more space
upwards and avoid collision with the items
loaded into lower rack.
The upper rack is equipped with a Upper
Rack height adjuster (see gure), without
pressing the levers, lift it up by simply holding
the rack sides, as soon as the rack is stable in
its upper position. To restore to the lower position, press the le-
vers Aat the sides of the rack and move the basket downwards.
We strongly recommend that you do not adjust the height of
the rack when it is loaded. NEVER raise or lower the basket
on one side only.
LOWER RACK
For pots, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Large plates and
lids should ideally be placed at the sides to avoid interferences
with the spray arm.
(loading example for the lower rack)
CUTLERY BASKET
The basket is equipped with top grilles for
improved cutlery arrangement. The cutlery
basket should be positioned only at the front
of the lower rack.
Knives and other utensils with sharp ed-
ges must be placed in the cutlery basket
with the points facing downwards or they
must be positioned horizontally in the tip-up
compartments on the upper rack.
UNSUITABLE CROCKERY
• Wooden crockery and cutlery.
• Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique
crockery. Their decorations are not resistant.
• Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high temperatures.
• Copper and tin crockery.
• Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can
change and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass
(e.g. crystal objects) can become opaque after a number of wash
cycles too.
DAMAGE TO GLASS AND CROCKERY
• Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the manufactu-
rer as dishwasher safe.
• Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery
• Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as the
wash cycle is over.
HYGIENE
To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the
dishwasher please run a high temperature program at least once
a month. Use a tea spoon of detergent and run it without the
loading to clean your appliance.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
ATTENTION: Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it
and when performing maintenance work. Do not use ammable
liquids to clean the machine.
CLEANING THE DISHWASHER
Any marks on the inside of the appliance may be
removed using a cloth dampened with water and
a little vinegar.
The external surfaces of the machine and the
control panel can be cleaned using a non-abrasive
cloth which has been dampened with water. Do
not use solvents or abrasive products.
PREVENTING UNPLEASANT ODOURS
Always keep the door of the appliance ajar in order to avoid mo-
isture from forming and being trapped inside the machine.
Clean the seals around the door and detergent dispensers regu-
larly using a damp sponge. This will avoid food becoming trapped
in the seals, which is the main cause behind the formation of
unpleasant odours.
CHEKING THE WATER SUPPLY HOSE
Check the inlet hose regularly for brittleness and cracks. If dama-
ged, replace it by a new hose available through our After-Sales
Service or your specialist dealer. Depending on the hose type:
If the inlet hose has a transparent coating, periodically check if
the colour intensies locally. If yes, the hose may have a leak and
should be replaced.
For water stop hoses: check the small safety valve inspection
window (see arrow). If it is red, the water stop function was trig-
gered, and the hose must be replaced by a new one.
For unscrewing this hose, press the release button while unscre-
wing the hose.
CLEANING THE WATER INLET HOSE
If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an exten-
ded period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and
free of impurities before performing the necessary connections. If
this precaution is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked
and damage the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE FILTER ASSEMBLY
Regularly clean the lter assembly so that the lters do not clog
and that the waste water ows away correctly.
The lter assembly consists of three lters which remove food
residues from the washing water and then recirculate the water:
to obtain the best washing results, you need to keep them clean.
The dishwasher must not be used without lters or if the
lter is loose.
After several washes, check the lter assembly and if necessary
clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-metallic
brush and following the instructions below:
1. Turn the cylindrical lter Ain an anti-clockwise direction and
pull it out (Fig 1).
2. Remove the cup lter Bby exerting a slight pressure on the
side aps (Fig 2).
3. Slide out the stainless-steel plate lter C(Fig 3).
4. Inspect the trap and remove any food residues. NEVER RE-
MOVE the wash-cycle pump protection (black detail) (Fig 4).
After cleaning the lters, re-place the lter assembly and x it in
position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efcient
operation of the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS
On occasions, food residue
may become encrusted onto
the spray arms and block the
holes used to spray the water. It
is therefore recommended that
you check the arms from time to
time and clean them with a small
non-metallic brush.
To remove the upper spray arm,
turn the plastic locking ring in an
anti-clockwise direction.
The upper spray arm should be replaced so that the side with the
greater number of holes is facing upwards.
The lower spray arm may be
removed by pulling it upwards.
