PG 9
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Cold water 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. This precaution is needed to avoid the risk
of the water inlet to be blocked and damage the appliance.

sets should not be reused.
Position the appliance
Position the appliance in the desired location. The back
should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides,
along the addjacent cabinets or walls. The dishwasher
is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can
be positioned either to the right or left sides to facilitate
proper installation.
Levelling he appliance

adjustment of the screwing level of the feet. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined
more than 2.
Water Supply and Drain

PG 10
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4 cm, or let it run into the sink,
making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. The height of drain pipe must be less than 1000mm.
The free end of the hose must not be immersed in water to avoid the back flow of it.
Please securely fix the drain hose in either position A or position B
How to drain excess water from hoses
If the sink is 1000 higher from the floor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly into
the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable container
that is held outside and lower than the sink.

Function Of The Rinse Aid And Detergent
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your
dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll o the
dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids.
Warning
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispense with any other
substances (e.g Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.
When to refill the rinse aid dispenser
Unless the rinse-aid warning light ( ) on the control panel is on, you can
always estimate the amount from the colour of the optical level indicator
located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the indicator
will be fully dark. The size of the dark dot decreases as the rinse-aid
diminishes. You should never let the rinse aid level be less than 1/4 full.
As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as
illustrated below.
Function of detergent
The chemical ingredients that compose the detergent are necessary to remove, crush and
dispense all dirt out of the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for
this purpose.
WARNING
• Property Use of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for dishwashers use. Keep your detergent fresh and
dry.
Don’t put powdered detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to wash dishes.
• Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Keep dishwasher detergent out of the reach
of children.

Filling The Rinse Aid Dispenser
Adjusting the rinse aid resorvoir
Turn the rinse aid indicator dial to a number. The higher
the number, the more rinse aid the dishwasher uses.
If the dishes are not drying properly or are spotted,
adjust the dial to the next higher number until your
dishes are spot-free. Reduce it if there are sticky
whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish film on
glassware or knife blades.
NOTE:
Clean up any spilled rinse aid with an
absorbent cloth to avoid excessive foaming
during the next wash.

Basket Use Tips
Adjusting the upper basket
Type 1:
The height of the upper basket
can be easily adjusted to
accommodate taller dishes in
either the upper or lower basket.
Folding back the cup shelves
To make room for taller items in the upper
basket, raise the cup rack upwards. You can
then lean the tall glasses against it. You can
also remove it when it is not required for
use.
Folding back the rack shelves
The spikes of the lower basket are used for
holding plates and a platter. They can be
lowered to make more room for large items.
USING THE DISHWASHER

PG 17

Recommendations for loading the dishwasher
Scrape o any large amounts of leftover food. Soften remnants of burnt food in pans. It is not
necessary to rinse the dishes under running water. For best performance of the dishwasher,
follow these loading guidelines. (Features and appearance of baskets and cutlery baskets may
vary from your model.)
Place objects in the dishwasher in following way:
• Items such as cups, glasses, pots, pans, etc. are faced downwards.
• Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded aslant so that water can run o.
• All utensils are stacked securely and can not tip over.
• All utensils are placed in the way that the spray arms can rotate freely during washing.
• Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans etc. With the opening facing downwards so
that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.
• Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other.
• To avoid damage, glasses should not touch one another.
• The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses,
coee and tea cups.
• Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard!
• Long and sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in
the upper basket.
• Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is important for good results and for
reasonable consumption of energy.
NOTE: Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of
the basket.
USING THE DISHWASHER
Preparing and Loading Dishes

PG 18
Loading the upper basket
The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and
lighter dishware such as glasses, coee and tea cups
and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow
pans (as long as they are not too dirty). Position the
dishes and cookware so that they will not get moved by
the spray of water.
Loading the lower basket
We suggest that you place large items and the most
dicult to clean items are to be placed into the lower
basket: such as pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and
bowls, as shown in the figure below. It is preferable to
place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in
order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
The maximum diameter advised for plates in front of the
detergent dispenser is of 19 cm, this not to hamper the
opening of it.
Loading the cutlery tray
Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery tray separately from each other in the appropriate
positions, and make sure the utensils do not nest together, this may cause bad performance.
WARNING
Do not let any item extend through the bottom.
Always load sharp utensils with the sharp point down!
Note:
For the best wash results, please refer to standard loading options in section 5.
Removing the dishes
To prevent water dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we recommend that
you empty the lower basket first, followed by the upper basket.
WARNING
Items will be hot! To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher for
around 15 minutes after the program has ended.
