WANING

- Only use detergent specifically for dishwashers.

Never use any other rinse aid and detergents. This will damage the appliance.

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

Concentrated Detergent

Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:

• Conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.
• Low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.

The use of Normal washing program in combination with concentrated detergent reduces pollution and is good for your dishes.

Detergent Tablets

Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short Programs. Therefore please use long programs when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.

Detergent

The detergent must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the Wash Cycle Table. Your dishwasher uses less detergent then conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

Filter system

WANING

• Never use the dishwasher without filters!
• Make sure the filter is properly assembled.

The performance may be affected and dishes and utensils could become damaged.

The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recycled during the cycle.

For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned regularly. For this reason, it is a good idea tore move the larger food particles trapping in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull the cup handle in the upward direction.

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with no visible text or symbols

B. Fine filter

This filter holds soil and food residues in the sump area and prevents it from being deposited on the dishes during wash cycle.

A. Main filter

Food and soil particles trapped in this filter are pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down to drain.

Step 1: Contrarotate the filter assembly, then lift it all up.

Step 2: Lift B up from A.

NOTE

If do it from step1 to step 2, the filter system will be removed; while if do it from Step 2 to Step 1, the filter system will be installed.

The entire filter assembly should be cleaned once a week.

• Inspect the filters for blocking after every time the dishwasher has been used.
• By unscrewing the coarse filter, you can remove the filter system. Remove any food remnants and clean the filters under running water.

WANING

When cleaning the filters, don't knock on them. Otherwise, the filters could be contorted and the performance of dishwasher could be decreased.

• Caring for the Dishwasher

The control panel can be cleaned by using a lightly dampened cloth. After cleaning, make sure to dry it thoroughly. For the exterior use a good appliance polish wax. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

Cleaning The Door

WANING

• Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel as it may damage the door lock and electrical components.
• Abrasive agents or some paper towel should not be used because of the risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.

Failure to do so could result in death or electrical shock.

Attention

The installation of the pipes and electrical equipments should be done by professionals.

• Installation preparation

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

One side of the cabinet sink should be chosen to facilitate the connection of drain hoses 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 wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.

• About Power Connection

WANING

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 10 amp, 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 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 and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the appliance.
