5OPERATING INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS
5.1 Safe use
After the installation procedure described above, note that the dishwasher is intended for professional use
only and may only be used by authorised staff.
DANGER - HOT SURFACES
The dishwasher can run heat disinfection cycles at water temperatures up to 93°C. It may occur that
water remains in the tank in case of malfunction; avoid contact with the skin due to the danger of
scalding and irritation due to toxic chemical products. Never touch the heating elements in the tank.
Contact authorised Smeg technical staff in case of malfunction.
5.2 Using the water softener
The quantity of lime in the water (which indicates its hardness) causes whitish marks on dry dishes and dishes
also tend to lose their shine over time. The dishwasher is equipped with an automatic water softener which
removes the substances that cause hardness from the water with the aid of regenerating salt.
fig. 9 –The salt container is accessible with the door open; filling the water softener container with salt.
When using water of medium hardness, the salt container should be refilled after approximately 20 wash
cycles. The salt container can hold approximately 1 kg of salt grains.
The container is situated at the bottom of the dishwasher.
Remove the lower basket and undo the salt container cap by turning it anticlockwise and pour in the salt
using the funnel supplied. Do not allow salt to spill into the interior of the dishwasher. Remove any salt
residues around the opening before screwing the cap back on.
ATTENTION
The first time the dishwasher is used, a litre of water must be poured into the tank with the
salt. Each time the salt container is refilled, make sure that the cap is securely closed. The
mixture of water and detergent must not get into the salt tank, as this would impair operation
of the regeneration system. In this case warranty cover will be forfeited.
Use only granular salt for dishwashers.
Do not use table salt, since it contains insoluble substances which can compromise the
operation of the softener system over time.
The salt container should be refilled before starting the wash program. This way, the excess
saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; prolonged presence of salt water
inside the tank may lead to corrosion. Run a prewash cycle to achieve the same purpose, if
necessary.

13
5.3 Using detergent and rinse aid
The machine is equipped with a device for dosing the detergent and rinse aid, mounted inside the door. Except
for the prewash cycle, you must fill the dispenser with the proper amount of detergent before each wash.
WARNING: If optional peristaltic pumps P1 and P2 are installed, do not use the door dispenser since it is
disabled electrically (the door remains always shut)
Open the cover of the detergent dispenser with its lever. Now fill with detergent and close again carefully.
To fill up the rinse aid, remove the cap and fill to the level shown by the indicator (D).
MAX
MIN
fig. 10 –Powder detergent and rinse aid dispenser, accessible with the door open.
During the wash cycle, the dispenser will open automatically.
Make sure to use good quality detergent for best results. Keep the detergent containers closed and in a dry
place to prevent lumps forming, as these can compromise the wash.
IMPORTANT!
Use powder detergent and not detergent tablets for short cycles
5.3.1 Correct use of the peristaltic pumps –OPTIONAL
WARNING
The peristaltic pumps must be installed by a technician authorised to do so by Smeg.
After installation, they must be enabled (see SET-UP)
In this case, do not use the door dispenser; the machine must be hooked up to the detergent (red hose) and
rinse aid (transparent hose) containers.
After the containers have been opened, they must not be kept for too long since the detergent loses its power
and can form lumps which compromise the wash cycle.

14
During the installation and when replacing a completely empty container of fluid, run the service
program (Prg.8) to load the fluid. The hose running from the container to the pump must be charged
to ensure that the product is batched properly in wash cycles.
5.3.2 Tank level sensors - OPTIONAL
The machine can be equipped with level sensors in the detergent and rinse aid intake hoses.
WARNING
The level sensors must be connected electrically to the terminal block on the inside of the rear strut
(there is a sensor connection for each peristaltic pump).
This must be done by a technician authorised to do so by Smeg.
fig. 11 –Configuration with LEVEL SENSOR: Detergent intake nozzle with integrated level sensor. The intake nozzle is fitted with a filter; make sure this is
always properly located to prevent lumps being drawn up.
ATTENTION
If the level sensors are not present, check the container level regularly so as not to run cycles
without detergent or rinse aid.
WARNING
It is essential that the label on the intake hose match the type of chemical product in use.
Connection errors, which lead to the mixture of diverse chemical products in the intake circuit can
irremediably damage the circuit and void the warranty for the parts in question (peristaltic pumps,
detergent suction and delivery circuit)
The intake hose is supplied with an intake filter. The filter is secured to the hose with a light
interference fit. Make sure the filter is present and properly located to ensure that the detergent
intake system can operate properly.

15
Check from time to time that the silicone hose is properly secured to the stainless steel intake
pipe, and that there are no leaks. Use proper clamping equipment (such as plastic pull ties) to
secure the silicone hose to the stainless steel pipe.
