Before sing yo r dishwasher for the first time:
1. Ens re that the electrical and water connections comply
with the installation instr ctions.
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance.
3. Set the water softener.
4. Po r 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill
with salt.
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
6. R n a "Rinse and Hold" programme.
Setting the water softener
The dishwasher is eq ipped with a water softener designed to
remove minerals and salts from the water s pply, which wo ld
have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the
appliance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder yo r water is.
Water hardness is meas red in eq ivalent scales, German
degrees, French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).
The softener sho ld be adj sted according to the hardness of
the water in yo r area. Yo r local Water A thority can advise
yo on the hardness of the water in yo r area.
The dishwasher is factory set at level 4.
If yo r water is level 0 it is already soft and therefore there is
no need to se salt.
With the setting of the water softener at level 0 the salt
indicator light on the control panel will always remain off.
Use salt from level 1 pwards.
The adjustment of the water softener is possible only with
the machine in setting mode.
9. "Delay start" push button
Allows the start of the programme to be delayed by a
minim m of 1 ho r, p to 12 ho rs.
10. "Cancel" push button

Audible signals
A dible signals have been introd ced to help indicate which
operations the dishwasher is performing.
Short "instruction accepted" signal
When any of the p sh b ttons are pressed (except the
On/Off p sh b tton), a short a dible signal informs yo that
the machine has accepted the instr ction given.
Long "programme run" signal
A contin o s a dible signal informs yo , once the door is
closed, that the washing programme is starting.
Intermittent "end of programme" signal
An intermittent a dible signal informs yo that the wash
programme has ended.
"Alarm" intermittent signal
The machine is fitted with a n mber of alarm systems to help
yo determine the ca se of any problems.
An intermittent a dible signal for abo t 15 seconds informs
yo that an alarm is activated.
To deactivate these audible signals, press sim ltaneo sly
and keep pressed both "programme selection" and "drying
options" p sh b ttons for abo t 3 seconds. D ring this time
an intermittent a dible signal is heard at the end of which the
a dible signals are deactivated.
To reactivate these audible signals, press sim ltaneo sly
and keep pressed both "programme selection" and "drying
options" p sh b ttons for abo t 3 seconds. D ring this time
no a dible signal is heard. At the end of the 3 seconds an
intermittent a dible signal starts, informing yo that the a dible
signals have been reactivated.
Both operations (to deactivate or reactivate the audible
signals) can be carried out before starting a washing
programme or during a washing programme.
The setting will remain memorised after switching off the
dishwasher.
