Prior to using for the first time
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections com ly
with the installation instructions
2. Remove all ackaging from inside the a liance
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill
with salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dis enser
6. Run a "Rinse and Hold" rogramme (not all models of
dishwashers are foreseen with this rogramme)
The water softener
The dishwasher is equi ed with a water softener designed to
remove minerals and salts from the water su ly, which would
have a detrimental or adverse effect on the o eration of the
a liance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German
degrees, French degrees and PPM ( arts er Million).
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of
the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise
you on the hardness of the water in your area.
The dishwasher is factory set at osition 2.
If your water is below level 1 it is already soft and therefore
there is no need to use salt. In this case adjust the water
softener on level 1 without using salt.
Only for dishwasher models with salt refilling
indicator light:
If the water softener has been adjusted on level 1 and no salt
is being used, the salt refilling indicator light on the control
anel, will always remain illuminated when the machine is
switched on and the door closed.
Setting the water softener
1. O en the dishwasher door.
2. Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.
3. Turn the water hardness switch until the required level (see
table) corres onds with the marker .
4. Re lace the lower basket.
Filling with salt
Special salt can be added in one of two ways:
●If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains
salt, the detergent including the salt is laced in the
detergent com artment.
- In this case the water softener must be set to level 1 to
ensure that the s ecial salt is taken from the detergent
container only.
●If you are using dishwasher detergent and salt se arately,
the s ecial salt is to be ut into the salt container.
- In this case the water softener must be set to between
level 1 and 5 (de ending on the water hardness in your
area) to ensure that the s ecial salt is taken from the salt
container only.
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. O en the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the
ca of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary
only before filling with salt for the first time).
3. Using the funnel rovided, our in the salt until the container
is full.
4. Re lace the ca making
sure that there is no trace
of salt on the screw
thread or on the gasket.
5. Screw on the ca tightly
turning it clockwise until it
sto s with a click.
The salt container will require
to ing u eriodically.
According to the model of dishwasher, you are reminded
of this by:
A) The salt ca has a refill
indicator window in the
centre.
Agreen float is clearly
visible when there is salt
inside the container and
almost disa ears when the
salt has finished reminding
you to add salt.
B) Asalt indicator light on the control anel will come on
when the salt has finished. The salt indicator light on the
control anel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after the
salt has been re lenished, assuming the dishwasher
remains switched on. If you are using salts that take longer
to dissolve then this can take longer. The function of the
machine is not affected.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with
salt, this is quite normal.

Rinse aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring
thorough rinsing, and s ot and streak free drying. The
dis enser, which is ositioned inside the door, holds about
110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing
rogrammes, de ending u on the dosage setting.
Rinse aid can be added in one of two ways:
●If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains
rinse aid, the detergent including the rinse aid is laced in
the detergent com artment.
- In this case the rinse aid com artment must be em ty.
If in the rinse aid dis enser there is still rinse aid you
must wait until it has finished before using detergent that
contains rinse aid.
●If you are using dishwasher detergent and rinse aid
se arately, the rinse aid is to be ut into the rinse aid
dis enser.
- In this case the rinse aid dosage must be set in osition
from 1 to 6 (see "Adjusting the dose") and the rinse aid
indicator light activated.
Filling with rinse aid
(Rinse aid dispenser type A)
1. O en the container by ressing the release button (A).
2. Fill with rinse aid exactly u to the level indicator marked
"max".
nsure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Adjusting the dose
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the
dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 osition selector ( osition
1 minimum dosage, osition 6 maximum dosage).
Increase the dose if there are dro s of water or lime s ots on
the dishes after washing.
The dose is factory set in osition 4.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.
Filling with rinse aid
(Rinse aid dispenser type B)
1. O en the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.
2. Fill with rinse aid exactly u to the level indicator marked "max".
nsure the lid is closed after every refill.
Adjusting the dose
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the
dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 osition selector (C)
( osition 1 minimum dosage, osition 6 maximum dosage).
Increase the dose if there are dro s of water or lime s ots on
the dishes after washing.
The dose is factory set in osition 5.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.
Top up with rinse aid when:
1. The indicator (B) becomes clear,
2. Only for dishwasher models with rinse aid indicator
light:
When the rinse aid indicator light on the control anel
illuminates (when the machine is switched on and the door
closed).
Clean u any rinse aid s ilt during filling with an absorbent
cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse
aid dis enser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher
cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the
a liance.

●Check if it’s necessary to refill with s ecial salt or rinse aid
●Load cutlery and dishes into the dishwasher.
●Fill with dishwasher detergent .
●Select a wash rogramme suitable for the cutlery and
dishes.
●Start the wash rogramme.
Loading cutlery and dishes
Sponges, household cloths and any object that can
absorb water may not be washed in the dishwasher.
●Before loading the dishes, you should:
- Remove large left-overs.
- Soften remnants of burnt food in ans
●When loading the dishes and cutlery, lease note:
- Dishes and cutlery must not im ede the rotation of the
s ray arms .
- Load hollow items such as cu s, glasses, ans, etc. with
the o ening downwards so that water cannot collect in the
container or a dee base.
- Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one
another, or cover each other.
- To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch.
- Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.
O en the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
The lower basket
The lower basket is designed to take sauce ans, lids, lates,
salad bowls, cutlery etc.
Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the
edge of the basket, ensuring that the u er s ray arm can turn
freely.
The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a
potential hazard.
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives
must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as
knives.
Cutlery should be laced in the removable cutlery basket with
the handles facing downwards. If the handles rotrude from
the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower s ray arm, load
the cutlery with the handles facing u wards.
Mix s oons with other cutlery to revent them from sticking
together.
For best results we
recommend you to use the
cutlery grids rovided (if the
size and dimensions of the
cutlery allow it).
The cutlery basket is in two
arts which can be se arated
to give greater loading
flexibility. To se arate the two
arts, slide them horizontally
in o osite directions and
ull them a art. To
reassemble, reverse the
rocedure.
In daily use
For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery/dishes
are of limited suitability:
- Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is s ecifically
marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.
- Glazed atterns may fade if machine washed frequently
- Silver and aluminium arts have a tendency to discolour
during washing. Left-overs, e.g. egg white, egg yolk and
mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver.
Therefore always clean left-overs from silver immediately, if
it is not to be washed straight after use.
- Some ty es of glass can become dull after a large number
of washes
are not suitable:
- Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or
mother-of- earl handles
- Plastic items that are not heat resistant
- Older cutlery with glued arts that is not
tem erature resistant
- Bonded cutlery items or dishes
- Pewter or co er items
- Lead crystal glass
- Steel items subject to rusting
- Wooden latters
- Items made from synthetic fibres

The upper basket
The u er basket is designed for lates (dessert lates,
saucers, dinner lates of u to 25 cm in diameter), salad
bowls, cu s and glasses.
Arrange items on and
underneath the cu racks so
that water can reach all
surfaces.
Glasses with long stems can
be laced u side down in the
cu racks.
Light items ( lastic bowls
etc.) must be loaded in the
u er basket and arranged
so they do not move.
In case that plates are loaded in the upper
basket:
load them starting from the
rear ositions of the basket;
tilting them slightly forwards
and avoiding the front
ositions near the door.
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can
rotate freely.
Adjusting the height of the upper basket
If washing very large lates you can load them in the lower
basket after moving the u er basket to the higher osition.
To move to the higher position proceed as
follows:
1. Move the front runner sto s (A) of the u er basket
outwards and slide the basket out.
2. Refit the basket in the higher osition and re lace the sto s
(A) in their original osition.
After loading your machine always close the door, as an
open door can be a hazard.

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 rogramme. The detergent is
released during the washing hase.
Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage
recommendations as stated on the detergent ackaging.
Fill with detergent
(Detergent dispenser type A)
1. If the lid is closed: ress release button (1).
The lid s rings o en.
2. Fill the detergent dis enser (2) with detergent.
The marking indicates the dosing levels:
20 = a roximately 20 ml of detergent
30 = a roximately 30 ml of detergent
3. All rogrammes with rewash need an additional detergent
dose (5 g) that must be laced in the rewash detergent
chamber (3). This detergent will take effect during the
rewash hase.
4. Close the lid and ress until it locks in lace.
Fill with detergent
(Detergent dispenser type B)
1. O en the dis enser by ulling the catch (A).
The lid s rings o en.
2. Fill the detergent dis enser with detergent.
The marking indicates the dosing levels:
Min = a roximately 15 g of detergent
Max = a roximately 30 g of detergent
3. Close the lid and ress until it locks in lace.
4. All rogrammes with rewash need an additional detergent
dose (5 g) that must be laced over the lid of the dis enser.
This detergent will take effect during the rewash hase.
Use of "3 in 1" combi detergent tablets
General advice
These roducts are tablets with combined detergent/rinse-aid
and salt functions.
1. Before using these roducts you should first check that the
water hardness in your su ly is com atible with the use of
these roducts as er the detergent manufacturers (on the
roduct ackaging).
2. These roducts should be strictly used according to the
detergent manufacturers instructions.
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.
3. If you encounter roblems when using 3 in 1 roducts for
the first time then lease contact the detergent
manufacturers care line (the tele hone number is given on
the roduct ackaging).
Special advice
When using combination roducts, the rinse-aid and salt
indicators are no longer useful ( lease note that only some
dishwashers have these o tions). Select the lowest ossible
setting for water hardness.
For more information lease refer to the instruction manual.
If you decide to turn back to the use of the standard detergent
system we advise that you:
●Refill both the salt container and rinse aid dis enser.
●Switch the water hardness setting to the highest ossible
osition and run a normal washing rogramme without a
load.
●Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the
hardness of the water in your area.
Concentrated detergent
Based on their chemical com osition, dishwasher detergents
can be s lit into two basic ty es:
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic com onents.
- low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.
The use of 50°C washing rogrammes in conjunction with
concentrated detergents reduces ollution and is good for your
dishes; these wash rogrammes are s ecially matched to the
dirt-dissolving ro erties of the enzymes in the concentrated
detergent. For this reason 50°C wash rogrammes in which
concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same
results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C
rogrammes.
Detergent tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different
s eeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot
develo their full cleaning ower during short rogrammes.
Therefore lease use normal rogrammes with rewash when
using detergent tablets.

Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control anel
with a dam soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral
detergents. Never use abrasive roducts, scouring ads or
solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse
aid dis ensers are cleaned regularly with a dam cloth.
We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash
rogramme without dishes using detergent.
Cleaning the filters
The filters in the base of the washing com artment are to a
large extent self-cleaning. Nevertheless the filters should be
checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will
degrade the washing result.
1. O en the door, remove the lower basket.
2. The dishwasher filter system com rises a coarse/fine filter
(A/B), a microfilter (C) and a flat filter (D).
Some dishwasher models filter system com rises only a
coarse filter (A), a microfilter (C) and a flat filter (D).
Unlock the filter system using the handle on the microfilter,
and remove.
3. Turn the handle about 1/4a turn anticlockwise and remove.
4. Take hold of the coarse/fine filter (A/B) by the handle with
the hole and remove from the microfilter (C).
5. Clean all filters thoroughly under running water.
6. Remove the flat filter (D) from the base of the washing
com artment and clean both faces thoroughly.
7. Put the flat filter back in the base of the washing
com artment.
8. Place the coarse/fine filter in the microfilter and ress
together.
9. Put the filter combination in lace and lock by turning the
handle clockwise to the sto . During this rocess ensure
that the flat filter does not rotrude above the base of the
washing com artment.
Under no circumstances may the dishwasher be used
without filters.
To ensure a correct
working of the dishwasher,
N V R try to remove the
upper spray arm.
If residues of soil have
clogged the holes in the
u er s ray arm, remove
them with a tooth ick.
Prolonged periods of non-operation
If you are not using the machine for any eriod of time you are
advised to:
1. Un lug the a liance and then turn off the water.
2. Fill the rinse aid dis enser.
3. Leave the door ajar to revent the formation of any
un leasant smells.
4. Leave the inside of the machine clean.
Frost precautions
Avoid lacing the machine in a location where the tem erature
is below 0°C. If this is unavoidable, em ty the machine, close
the a liance door, disconnect the water inlet i e and em ty
it.
Moving the machine
If you have to move the machine (moving house etc....):
1. Un lug it.
2. Turn the water ta off.
3. Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.
4. Pull the machine out together with the hoses.
Avoid over tilting the machine during trans ortation.

Installation instructions
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 all ackaging before ositioning the machine.
If ossible, osition the machine next to a water ta and a drain.
Water supply connections
This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 60°) or cold
water (See "Technical s ecifications" - Instruction book art 2).
Nevertheless we advise you a cold water su ly.
A hot water su ly is not always efficient with very soiled
crockery as it shortens the washing rogrammes a lot.
The dishwasher must not be connected to o en hot water
a liances or instantaneous water heaters.
For making the connection itself, the cou ling nut fitted to the
machine’s su ly hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4"
inch gas thread s out or to a ur ose made quick-cou ling ta
such as the ress-block.
The water ressure must be within the limits given in the
technical s ecifications. Your local Water Authority will advise
you on the average mains ressure in your area.
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled
when it is being connected u .
The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be
turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation.
The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that revent the
wash water returning into the drinking water system and
com ly with the a licable lumbing regulations.
Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been
used in another appliance.
If the machine is connected to new i es or i es which have
not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a
few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.
Water outlet hose connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following
ways:
1. To the sink outlet s igot, securing it to the underside of the
work surface. This will revent waste water from the sink
running into the machine.
2. Hooked over the edge of the sink using the s ecial curved
lastic guide rovided (if rovided with the machine).
3. To a stand i e rovided with vent-hole, minimum internal
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 left of the
dishwasher
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could revent
or slow down the discharge of water.
The sink lug must not be in lace when the machine is
draining as this could cause the water to si hon back into the
machine.
If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2
metres and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the
diameter of the hose rovided.
Likewise the internal diameter of the cou lings used for
connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the
diameter of the hose rovided.
Attention!
Our a liances are su lied with a security device to rotect
against the return of dirty water back into the machine.
If the s igot of your sink has a "no return valve" incor orated
this can revent the correct draining of your dishwasher.
We advise you therefore to remove it.
lectrical connection
Information concerning the electrical connection is given on the
rating late on the edge of the dishwasher’s door on the right.
Before lugging the a liance into the wall socket, make sure
that:
1. The mains voltage and current rating at the site of
installation match the nominal voltage and current rating
given on the rating late.
2. The meter, fuses, mains ower su ly and wall socket can
all take the maximum load required. Make sure that the
socket and lug are com atible without having to use any
ty e of ada tor. If necessary, have the domestic wiring
system socket re laced.
To isolate the dishwasher from mains, remove the mains lug.
Important!
The plug must still be accessible after the appliance has
been installed.
In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced, please
contact your local consumer services department.
Safety standards require the appliance to be earthed.
The manufacture accepts no liability for failure to observe
the above safety precautions.
