Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to install
this appliance should be carried out by a qualified
electrician and/or plumber or competent person.
Remove a packaging before positioning the machine.
If possib e, position the machine next to a water tap and a
drain.
Fitting under a counter
(kitchen worktop or sink)
By removing the machine’s worktop, you can insta it under a
c ose fitting sink unit or a pre-existing top, providing the
dimensions of the recess correspond to those shown in the
picture.
Proceed as follows:
Remove the machine’s worktop by unscrewing the two rear
retaining screws, pu from the front and s ide out the rear
s ots, ifting the worktop.
Insert the machine after adjusting height and eve ing with the
adjustab e feet. When inserting the machine, ensure that the
water in et and drain hoses are not kinked or squashed.
If the dishwasher is ater used as a free-standing app iance,
the origina worktop must be re-mounted.
The p inth on free-standing app iances is not adjustab e.
Levelling
Good eve ing is essentia for correct c osure and sea ing of
the door.
When the app iance is correct y eve ed, the door wi not catch

If the door does not c ose correct y, oosen or tighten the
adjustab e feet unti the machine is perfect y eve .
Water supply connections
This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 50°C) or co d
water. Neverthe ess we advise you a co d water supp y.
A hot water supp y is not a ways efficient with very soied
crockery as it shortens the washing programmes a ot.
For making the connection itse f, the coup ing nut fitted to the
machine’s suppy hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4"
inch gas thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coup ing tap
such as the Press-b ock.
The water pressure must be within the imits given in the
technica specifications. Your oca Water Authority wi advise
you on the average mains pressure in your area.
The water in et hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entang ed
when it is being connected up.
The dishwasher features fi and drain hoses which can be
turned either to the eft or the right to suit the insta ation by
means of the ocknut. (Attention! NOT a mode s of
dishwashers have fi and drain hoses provided with ocknut. In
this case, this kind of faci ity is not possib e).
The ocknut must be correct y fitted to avoid water eaks.
If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have
not been used for a ong time, you shou d run the water for a
few minutes before connecting the in et hose.
Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been
used in another appliance.
The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that prevent the
wash water returning into the drinking water system and
comp y with the app icab e p umbing regu ations.
Water inlet hose with safety valve
After connecting the doub e-wa ed water in et hose, the safety
va ve is next to the tap. Therefore the water inet hose is ony
under pressure whi e the water is running. If the water in et
hose starts to eak during this operation, the safety va ve cuts
off the running water.
Please take care when installing the water inlet hose:
- The distance between the bottom edge of the safety va ue
and the f oor on which the dishwasher is standing must be at
east 30 cm:
- The e ectrica cab e for the safety va ve is in the doub e-
wa ed water in et hose. Do not immerse the water in et hose
or the safety va ve in water.
- If water in et hose or the safety va ve is damaged, remove
the mains p ug immediate y.
- A water in et hose with safety va ve must on y be rep aced by
a specia ist or by the consumer services department.

The end of the drain hose can be connected in the fo owing
ways:
1. To the sink out et spigot, securing it if necessary with a c ip.
2. Hooked over the edge of the sink using the specia curved
p astic guide (if provided with the machine).
3. To a stand pipe provided with vent-ho e, minimum interna
diameter 4 cm.
The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm
(minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the
dishwasher.
The drain hose can face either to the right or eft of the
dishwasher
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this cou d prevent
or s ow down the discharge of water.
The sink p ug must not be in p ace when the machine is
draining as this cou d cause the water to siphon back into the
machine.
If you use a drain hose extension it must be no onger than 2
metres and its interna diameter must be no sma er than the
diameter of the hose provided.
Likewise the interna diameter of the coup ings used for
connections to the waste out et must be no sma er than the
diameter of the hose provided.
Attention!
Our app iances are supp ied with a security device to protect
against the return of dirty water back into the machine.
If the spigot of your sink has a "no return va ve" incorporated
this can prevent the correct draining of your dishwasher.
We advise you therefore to remove it.
Electrical connection
Information concerning the e ectrica connection is given on the
rating p ate on the edge of the dishwasher’s door on the right.
Before p ugging the app iance into the wa socket, make sure
that:
1. The mains vo tage and current rating at the site of
insta ation match the nomina vo tage and current rating
given on the rating p ate.
2. The meter, fuses, mains power supp y and wa socket can
a take the maximum oad required. Make sure that the
socket and p ug are compatib e without having to use any
type of adaptor. If necessary, have the domestic wiring
system socket rep aced.

Prior to using for the first time
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
1. Ensure that the e ectrica and water connections comp y
with the insta ation instructions
2. Remove a packaging from inside the app iance
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 itre of water inside the sa t container and then fi

5. Fi the rinse aid dispenser
The water softener
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to
remove minera s and sa ts from the water supp y, which wou d
have a detrimenta or adverse effect on the operation of the
app iance.
The higher the content of these sa ts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equiva ent sca es, German
degrees, French degrees and PPM (parts per Mi ion).
The softener shou d be adjusted according to the hardness of
the water in your area. Your oca Water Authority can advise
you on the hardness of the water in your area.
The dishwasher is factory set at position 2.
If your water is be ow eve 1 it is a ready soft and therefore
there is no need to use sa t. In this case adjust the water
softener on eve 1 without using sa t.
Only for dishwasher models with salt refilling
indicator light:
If the water softener has been adjusted on eve 1 and no sa t
is being used, the sa t refi ing indicator ight on the contro
pane , wi a ways remain i uminated when the machine is
switched on and the door c osed.
Setting the water softener
1. Open the dishwasher door.
2. Remove the ower basket from the dishwasher.
3. Turn the water hardness switch unti the required eve (see
tab e) corresponds with the marker .
4. Rep ace the ower basket.
Filling with salt
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in
a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water
softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the washing
programmes except the Rinse and Hold programme).
This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which
may have been spilt, remaining on the bottom of the
machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. Open the door, remove the ower basket and unscrew the
cap of the sa t container by turning it antic ockwise.
2. Pour 1 itre of water inside the container (this is necessary
only before filling with salt for the first time).
3. Using the funne provided, pour in the sa t unti the container
is fu .
4. Rep ace the cap making
sure that there is no trace
of sa t on the screw
thread or on the gasket.
5. Screw on the cap tight y
turning it c ockwise unti it
stops with a c ick.
The sa t container wi require
topping up periodica y.
According to the model of dishwasher, you are reminded
of this by:
A) The sa t cap has a refi
indicator window in the
centre.
Agreen f oat is c ear y
visib e when there is sa t
inside the container and
a most disappears when the
sa t has finished reminding
you to add sa t.
B) Asalt indicator light on the contro pane wi come on
when the sa t has finished. The sat indicator ight on the
contro pane can remain i uminated for 2-6 hours after the
sa t has been rep enished, assuming the dishwasher
remains switched on. If you are using sa ts that take onger
to disso ve then this can take onger. The function of the
machine is not affected.
Do not worry if water over f ows from the unit when fi ing with
sa t, this is quite norma .

Use of detergent
Only use detergents specifically designed for use in
dishwashers.
Using no more then the correct amount of detergent
contributes to reducing pollution.
Prior to the start of a wash programme. The detergent is
re eased during the washing phase.
P ease observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage
recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
Fill with detergent
Detergent dispenser type A)
1. If the id is c osed: press re ease button (1).
The id springs open.
2. Fi the detergent dispenser (2) with detergent.
The marking indicates the dosing eve s:
20 = approximate y 20 m of detergent
30 = approximate y 30 m of detergent
3. A programmes with prewash need an additiona detergent
dose (5 g) that must be p aced in the prewash detergent
chamber (3). This detergent wi take effect during the
prewash phase.
4. C ose the id and press unti it ocks in p ace.

Different kinds of
detergent
Detergent tablets
Detergent tab ets of different brands dissove at different
speeds. For this reason some detergent tab ets cannot
disso ve and deve op their fu c eaning power during short
programmes. Therefore pease use ong programmes when
using detergent tab ets, to ensure the comp ete remova of
detergent residua s.
Do not place the tablets in the tub or in the cutlery basket
as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets
should be placed in the detergent dispenser.
Concentrated detergent
Based on their chemica composition, dishwasher detergents
can be sp it into two basic types:
- conventiona , a ka ine detergents with caustic components.
- ow a ka ine concentrated detergents with natura enzymes.
The use of 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with
concentrated detergents reduces po ution and is good for your
dishes; these wash programmes are specia y matched to the
dirt-disso ving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated
detergent. For this reason 50°C wash programmes in which
concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same
resu ts that can otherwise on y be achieved using 65°C
programmes.
Combi detergents
If you are using dishwasher detergent that inc udes the rinse
aid function, this must be p aced in the detergent compartment.
In this case the rinse aid compartment must be empty, in order
to avoid a doub e dosage and the rinse aid indicator ight
deactivated.
If in the rinse aid compartment there is sti rinse aid you must
wait unti it has finished before using these kind of detergents.
Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents
General advice
These products are detergents with integrated and combined
detergent/rinse-aid and sa t functions.
1. Before using these products you shou d first check that the
water hardness in your supp y is compatib e with the use of
these products as per the detergent manufacturers (on the
product packaging).
2. These products shou d be strict y used according to the
detergent manufacturers instructions.
3. If you encounter prob ems when using 3 in 1 products for
the first time then p ease contact the detergent
manufacturers care ine (the te ephone number is given on
the product packaging).
Special advice
When using combination 3 in 1 products se ect the owest
possib e setting for water hardness.
If you decide to turn back to the use of the standard detergent
system we advise that you:
●Refi both the sa t container and rinse aid dispenser.
●Switch the water hardness setting to the highest possib e
position and run a norma washing programme without a
oad.
●Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the
hardness of the water in your area.
