Frequently Asked Questions - DWF1444WD Scandomestic

How do I install the Scandomestic DWF1444WD dishwasher?

Ensure the appliance is placed on a level surface. Connect the water inlet hose to a cold water supply with a 3/4 inch thread. Secure the drain hose to the sink drain or standpipe. Plug into a grounded outlet. Refer to the installation section in the manual for detailed steps.

What should I do if the dishwasher does not start?

Check if the door is fully closed and latched. Ensure the appliance is plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Verify that the water supply is turned on. If the problem persists, try resetting the appliance by unplugging it for 30 seconds.

How can I clean the filters?

Remove the lower rack and locate the filter assembly at the bottom. Rotate the coarse filter counterclockwise and lift it out along with the fine filter. Rinse both under running water without using abrasive cleaners. Reassemble in reverse order. Clean filters monthly to maintain performance.

Why is the dishwasher leaving water spots on dishes?

Water spots are usually caused by hard water or insufficient rinse aid. Adjust the rinse aid dispenser setting (1-6) based on water hardness. Use a rinse aid and ensure the water softener is correctly set. If using hard water, add dishwasher salt.

What does the error code E1 mean?

Error E1 indicates a water leakage issue. Check the water inlet hose and connections for leaks. Also inspect the base pan for water. If no visible leaks, reset the appliance. If the code persists, contact a qualified technician.

How do I enable the child lock?

Press and hold the Child Lock button (usually marked with a padlock icon) for 3-5 seconds until an indicator light appears. To disable, press and hold again. This prevents unintentional operation by children.

Can I use regular dish soap instead of dishwasher detergent?

No, regular dish soap creates excess foam that can damage the appliance. Only use dishwasher detergent in powder, gel, or tablet form. For best results, choose a detergent with rinse aid and salt components.

What is the maximum capacity for dishes?

The dishwasher has a capacity of 14 place settings. Load dishes with the soiled surfaces facing inward, and avoid overcrowding to ensure proper water circulation. Place large items in the lower rack and glasses in the upper rack.

How do I perform a descaling cycle?

Use a commercial descaler for dishwashers. Empty the appliance, pour the descaler into the detergent compartment, and run a hot program (e.g., Intensive or 65°C cycle). After completion, run a rinse cycle. Descale every 3 months or when the descaling indicator appears.

Where can I find replacement parts like filters or spray arms?

Replacement parts are available through authorized Scandomestic service centers or online retailers. Use only genuine Scandomestic parts to ensure compatibility and warranty validity. Common parts include filters, spray arms, and rubber seals.

    B --> C["Outside"]
    C --> D["Box with lid, drain, fan, brush, and funnel"]

1 Set the water softener
2 Loading the salt into the softener
3 Loading the basket
4 Fill the detergent dispenser

Please check the section 1 "Water Softener" of PART Please check the section 1 "Water Softener" of PART II: II: Special Version, if you need to set the water softener.

Loading the salt into the softener

NOTE:

If your model does not have any water softener, you may skip this section.

Always use salt intended for dishwasher use.

The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as explained in the following:

Warning

Only use salt specifically designed for dishwashers use!

Every other type of salt not specifically designed for dishwasher use, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any damages caused.

Only fill with salt before running a cycle.

This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.

graph LR
    A["Person mixing water"] --> B["Add salt"]
    B --> C["SALT container"]
    C --> D["Heating water"]
    D --> E["Final drying"]

Please follow the steps below for adding dishwasher salt:

1 Remove the lower basket and unscrew the reservoir cap.
2 Place the end of the funnel (if supplied) into the hole and pour in about 1.5 kg of dishwasher salt.
3 Fill the salt container to its maximum limit with water, It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.
4 After filling the container, screw back the cap tightly.
5 The salt warning light will turn off after the salt container has been filled with salt.
6 Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (We suggest to use a short program). Otherwise the filter system, pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged by salty water. This is out of warranty.

NOTE:

The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light ( ⇌ ) in the control panel comes on. Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the salt container is filled.

If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some models), you can estimate when to fill the salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher has run.

If salt has spilled, run a soak or quick program to remove it.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING External Care

The door and the door seal

Clean the door seals regularly with a soft damp cloth to remove food deposits.

When the dishwasher is being loaded, food and drink residues may drip onto the sides of the dishwasher door. These surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and are not accessed by water from the spray arms. Any deposits should be wiped off before the door is closed.

The control panel

If cleaning is required, the control panel should be wiped with a soft damp cloth only.

Warning

• To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.
• Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they may scratch the finish. Some paper towels may also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

Internal Care

Filtering system

The filtering system in the base of the wash cabinet retains coarse debris from the washing cycle, including foreign objects such as toothpicks or shards. The collected coarse debris may cause the filters to clog. Check the condition of the filters regularly, carefully remove foreign objects and clean the parts of the filtering system if necessary with water. Follow the steps below to clean the filter.

NOTE:

Pictures are only for reference, different models of the filtering system and spray arms may be different.

1 Hold the coarse filter and rotate it anticlockwise to unlock the filter. Lift the filter upwards and out of the dishwasher.	2 The fine filter can be pulled off the bottom of the filter assembly.The coarse filter can be detached from the main filter by gently squeezing the tabs at the top and pulling it away.
3 Larger food remnants can be cleaned by rinsing the filter under running water.For a more thorough clean, use a soft cleaning brush.	4 Reassemble the filters in the reverse order of the disassembly, replace the filter insert, and rotate clockwise to the close arrow.

Warning

• Do not over tighten the filters. Put the filters back in sequence securely, otherwise coarse debris could get into the system and cause a blockage.
• Never use the dishwasher without filters in place. Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.

Spray arms

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings.

To clean the spray arms, follow the instructions below:

To remove the upper spray arm, hold the nut in the center still and rotate the spray arm counterclockwise to remove it.	To remove the lower spray arm, pull out the spray arm upward.
Wash the arms in soapy and warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing them thoroughly.

Caring for the dishwasher

Frost precaution

Please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter. Every time after washing cycles, please operate as follows:

• Cut off the electrical power to the dishwasher at the supply source.
• Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
• Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to gather the water)
• Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
• Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up water in the sump.

After every wash

After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly open for a while so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

Remove the plug

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.

No solvents or abrasive cleaning

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water.

To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water an a little vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

When not in use for a long time

It is recommend that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly open. This will help the door seals to last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.

Moving the appliance

If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

Seals

One of the factors that cause odours to form in the dishwasher is food that

remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.

About Power Connection

Warning

For personal safety:

Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug with this appliance.

Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the earthing connection from the power cord.

Electrical requirements

Please look at the rating label to know the rating voltage and connect the dishwasher to the appropriate power supply. Use the required fuse 10A/13A/16A, time delay fuse or circuit breaker recommended and provide separate circuit serving only this appliance.

Electrical connection

Ensure the voltage and frequency of the power being corresponds to those on the rating plate. Only insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug, replace the socket, rather than using a adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.

Ensure that proper earthing exists before use

Water supply and drain

Cold water connection

Line drawing of a hand holding a faucet with a pipe fitting (no text or symbols)

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.

About the safety supply hose

Line drawing of a faucet with a valve and handle (no text or symbols)

The safety supply hose consists of the double walls. The system guarantees its intervention by blocking the flow of water in case of the supply hose breaking and when the air space between the supply hose itself and the outer corrugated hose is full of water.

Warning

A hose that attaches to a tap can burst if it is installed on the same water line as the dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose is disconnected and the hole plugged.

How to connect the safety supply hose

• Pull the safety supply hoses out from storage compartment located at rear of dishwasher.
• Tighten the screws of the safety supply hose to the faucet with thread 3/4inch.
• Turn the water fully on before starting the dishwasher.

How to disconnect the safety supply hose

• Turn off the water.
• Unscrew the safety supply hose from the faucet.

Connection of drain hoses

Insert the drain hose into a drainpipe 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 drainpipe must be less than 1000 mm. 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 connection to the drainpipe is positioned higher than 1000 mm, excess water may remain in the drain hose. It will be necessary to drain excess water from the hose into a bowl or suitable container that is held outside and lower than the sink.

Water outlet

Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. Ensure that the water drain hose is not kinked or squashed.

Extension hose

If you need a drain hose extension, make sure to use a similar drain hose.

It must not be longer than 4 meters, otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be reduced.

Syphon connection

The waste connection must be at a height less than 1000 mm (maximum) from the bottom of the dishwasher.

Positioning the appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or walls. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned either to

the right or the left sides to facilitate proper installation.

Levelling the appliance

Once the appliance is positioned for levelling, the height of the dishwasher may be altered via adjustment of the screwing level of the feet.

In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2^

Diagram showing a hand holding a tool with an arrow indicating motion, no text or symbols present

Free Standing Installation

Type 1: Fitting between existing carbinets

The height of the dishwasher, 845 mm, has been designed in order to allow the machine to be fitted between existing cabinets of the same height in modern fitted kitchens.

The laminated top of the machine does not require any particular care since it is heatproof, scratchproof and stainproof.

Line drawing of a kitchen sink with a grid-patterned wall and side table (no text or symbols)

Type 2: Underneath existing work top

(When fitting beneath a work top)

In most modern fitted kitchens there is only one single work top under which cabinets and electrical appliances are fitted. In this case remove the work top of the dishwasher by unscrewing the screws under the rear edge of the top (a).

Attention

After removing the work top, the screws must be screwed again under the rear edge of the top (b).

Selecting the best location for the dishwasher

The installation position of the dishwasher should be near the existing inlet and drain hose and power socket.

Illustrations of cabinet dimensions and installation position of the dishwasher.

Less than 5 mm between the top of dishwasher and cabinet and the outer door aligned to cabinet.

Water Softener

The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness dial.

The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.

The more minerals there are, the harder your water is.

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.

Adjusting salt consumption

The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjustment in the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimise and customise the level of salt consumption.

Please follow the steps below for adjustment in salt consumption.

1 Close the door and switch on the appliance;
2 Within 60 seconds after the appliance was switched on press the Program

button for more than 5 seconds to enter the water softener setting mode.

3 Press the Program button again to select the proper set according to your local environment, the setting will change in the following sequence: H3->H4->H5->H6->H1->H2->H3;
4 Press the Power button to end the setting mode.

Every cycle with a regeneration operation consumes additional 2.0 litres of water, the energy consumption increases by 0.02 kWh and the program extends by 4 minutes.

Please check the section 3 "Loading The Salt Into The Softener" of PART I: Generic Version, If your dishwasher lacks salt.

NOTE:

If your model does not have any water softener, you may skip this section. Water Softener

The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils.

The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt container specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water.

Preparing and loading dishes

Consider buying utensils which are identified as dishwasher-proof.

For particular items, select a program with the lowest possible temperature. To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher immediately after the program has ended.

For washing the following cutlery/dishes

Are not suitable

• Cutlery with wooden, horn china or mother-of-pearl handles Plastic items that

are not heat resistant

• Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant Bonded cutlery items or dishes
• Pewter or cooper items
• Crystal glass
  • Steel items subject to rusting
• Wooden platters
• Items made from synthetic fibres

Are of limited suitability

Some types of glasses can become dull after a large number of washes Silver and aluminum parts have a tendency to discolor during washing Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently

Recommendations for loading the dishwasher

Scrape off 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 the following way:

• Items such as cups, glasses, pots, pans, etc. must face downwards.
• Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded aslant so that water can run off.
• 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, coffee 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.

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.

Loading the upper basket

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with gears and shafts (no text or symbols)

The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee 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

Pure diagram of vertical panels arranged in a grid pattern without any text, numbers, or symbols

We suggest that you place large and difficult to clean items 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 basket

Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery basket separate from each other in the

appropriate positions. Avoid nesting of the cutlery to prevent insufficient cleaning performance.

Warning:

Circular diagram with grid pattern and crossed X marks (no text or symbols)

Do not let any item extend through the bottom.

Always load sharp utensils with the sharp point down!

For the best washing effect, please load the baskets refer to standard loading options on last section of PART I : Generic Version

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 off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids.

Warning

Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

When to refill the rinse aid

The regularity of the dispenser needing to be refilled depends on how often dishes are washed and the rinse aid setting used.

1 The Low Rinse Aid indicator (※) will be lit when more rinse aid is

2 needed. Do not overfill the rinse aid dispenser.

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

Proper Use of Detergent

Use only detergent specifically made for dishwashers use. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.

Do not fill detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to start the dishwasher.

Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Keep dishwasher detergent out of the reach of children.

Filling the rinse aid reservoir

Remove the rinse reservoir cap by lifting up the handle.

Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.

Close the cap after all.

Adjusting the rinse aid reservoir

To achieve a better drying performance with limited rinse aid, the dishwasher is designed to adjust the consumption by user. Follow the below steps.

1 Close the door, switch on the appliance.
2 Within 60 seconds after the appliance was switched on press the Program button for more than 5 seconds, and then press the Delay button to enter the set model, the rinse aid indication blinks as 1Hz frequency.
3 Press the Program button again to select the proper set according to your using habits, the setting will change in the following sequence: D1->D2->D3->D4->D5->D1.
4 The higher the number, the more rinse aid the dishwasher uses.
5 Without operation in 5 seconds or press the Power button to complete the setup and exit the setting mode.
