appliance and keep this manual for future reference.
Please check the packaging of your machine
before installation and the outer surface of the
machine once the packaging has been removed. Do
not operate the machine if it appears damaged or if
the packaging has been opened.
• Packaging materials protect your machine from any
damage that might occur during transportation. The
packaging materials are environmentally friendly
as they are recyclable. Use of recycled material
reduces raw material consumption and decreases
waste production.
This appliance can be used by children aged from
8 years and above, and by persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of
experience and knowledge if they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning the use of the
appliance in a safe way and understand hazards
involved. Children should not be allowed to play with
the appliance.

after washing. Keep children away from the machine
when it is open.

EN - 2
1.2. Installation Warnings
• Choose a suitable and safe place to install your
machine.
• Only original spare parts should be used with the
machine.
Unplug the machine before installation.
Your machine must only be installed by an
authorised service agent. Installation by anyone other
than an authorised agent may cause your warranty to
be void.
Check that the indoor electrical fuse system is
connected in line with safety regulations.
All electrical connections must match the values on
the plate.
Ensure the machine does not stand on the
electrical supply cable.
Never use an extension cord or a multiple socket
connection.
The plug should be accessible after the machine is
installed.
• After installation, run your machine unloaded for the
first time.
The machine must not be plugged in during
positioning.
Always use the coated plug supplied with your
machine.
If the electrical cable is damaged, it should only
be replaced by a qualified electrician.
1.3. During Usege
• This machine is for domestic use only; do not use

EN - 3
• it for other purposes. Commercial use will void the
guarantee.
Do not stand, sit or place loads on the open door of
the dishwasher.
Only use detergents and rinse aids produced
specifically for dishwashers. Our company is not
responsible for any damage that may occur due to
misuse.
Do not drink water from the machine.
Due to the danger of explosion, do not place any
chemical dissolving agents into the machine’s washing
section.
• Check the heat-resistance of plastic items before
washing them in the machine.
Only put items in the machine which are suitable for
dishwashing, and take care not to overfill the baskets.
Do not open the door while the machine is in
operation, hot water may spill out. Safety devices
ensure the machine stops if the door is opened.
The machine door should not be left open. It may
cause accidents.
Place knives and other sharp objects in the cutlery
basket in a blade-down position.
For models with the automatic door-opening
system, when the EnergySave option is active, the
door will open at the end of a program. To prevent
damage to your dishwasher, do not attempt to close
the door for one minute after it has opened. For
effective drying, keep the door open for 30 minutes
after a programme has ended. Do not stand in front of
the door after the auto-open signal sounds.
In the case of a malfunction, repair should only

EN - 4
be performed by an authorised service company,
otherwise the warranty will be void.
Before repair work, the machine should be
disconnected from the mains. Do not pull the cable to
unplug the machine. Switch off the water tap.
Operation at a low voltage will cause a decline in
performance levels.
For safety, disconnect the plug once a program has
finished.
To avoid an electric shock, do not unplug the
machine with wet hands.
Pull the plug to disconnect the machine from the
mains, never pull on the cord.
RECYCLING
• Some machine components and packaging consist of recyclable materials.
• Plastics are marked with the international abbreviations:(>PE<, >PP<, etc. )

2. INSTALLATION
2.1. Machine positioning
When positioning the machine, place it in
an area where dishes can be easily loaded
and unloaded. Do not put the machine in an
area where the ambient temperature falls
below 0°C.
Read all warnings located on the packaging
before removing the packaging and
positioning the machine.
Place the machine close to a water tap
and drain. Take into consideration that the
connections will not be altered once the
machine is in position.
Do not hold the machine by its door or
panel.
Leave an adequate distance around the
machine to allow ease of movement when
cleaning.
Ensure the water inlet and outlet hoses
are not squeezed or trapped and that the
machine does not stand on the electrical
cable while positioning.
Adjust the feet so the machine is level and
balanced. The machine should be placed
on flat ground otherwise it will be unstable
and the door of the machine will not close
properly.
2.2. Water connection
We recommend fitting a filter to your water
inlet supply in order to prevent damage to
your machine due to contamination (sand,
rust, etc.) from indoor plumbing. This will
also help prevent yellowing and deposit
formation after washing.
2.3. Water inlet hose
WARNING: Use the new water inlet
hose supplied with your machine, do not
use an old machine’s hose.
WARNING: Run water through the new
hose before connecting.
WARNING: Connect the hose directly
to the water inlet tap. The pressure
supplied by the tap should be a minimum
of 0.03 MPa and a maximum of 1 MPa. If
the pressure exceeds 1 MPa, a pressure
relief valve must be fitted between the
connection.
WARNING: After the connections are
made, turn the tap on fully and check for
water leaks. Always turn off the water inlet
tap after a wash program has finished.
An Aquastop water spout is available
with some models. Do not damage it or
allow it to become kinked or twisted.
2.4. Drain Hose
Connect the water drain hose directly to
water drain hole or to the sink outlet spigot.
This connection should be minimum 50 cm
and maximum 110 cm from flor plane.
IMPORTANT: Items will not wash
properly if a drain hose longer than 4 m is
used.

EN - 7
2.5. Electrical connection
WARNING: Your machine is set to
operate at 220-240 V. If the mains voltage
supply to your machine is 110 V, connect
a transformer of 110/220 V and 3000 W
between the electrical connection.
The earthed plug of the machine
must be connected to an earthed outlet
supplied by suitable voltage and current.
In the absence of earthing
installation, an authorised electrician
should carry out an earthing installation.
In the case of use without earthing
installed, we will not be responsible for
any loss of use that may occur.
The indoor fuse current value
should be 10-16 A.

8. CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning your Dishwasher is important
to maintain the machine’s service life.
Oil and lime may build up in your
Dishwasher over time. If this occurs:
• Fill the detergent compartment
but do not load any dishes. Select
a programme which runs at high
temperature and run the Dishwasher
empty. If this does not clean your
Dishwasher sufficiently, use a
cleaning agent designed for use with
dishwashers.
•Wipe the door seals regularly
with a damp cloth to remove any
accumulated residue.
8.1. Cleaning machine and filters
Clean the filters and spray arms at least
once a week. If any food waste remains on
the coarse and fine filters, remove them and
clean them thoroughly with water.
