4. BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

4.1. Preparing your dishwasher for first use

• Make sure the electricity and water supply specifications match the values indicated in the installation instructions for the machine.
• Remove all packaging material inside the machine.
• Set the water softener level.
• Fill the rinse aid compartment.

4.2 Salt usage (IF AVAILABLE)

For good washing results, the dishwasher needs soft water, i.e. water with less calcium. Otherwise, white lime residues will remain on the dishes and the interior equipment. This will negatively affect your machine's washing, drying, and shining performance. When water flows through the softener system, the ions that cause hardness are removed from the water, and the water reaches the softness required to obtain the best washing results. Depending on the hardness level of the incoming water, these hardening ions accumulate rapidly inside the softener system. Therefore, the softener system must be refreshed so that it operates with the same performance during the next wash. For this purpose, dishwasher salt is used.

The machine can only be used with special dishwasher salt to soften the water. Do not use any small-grained or powdered salts that are easily soluble. Using any other type of salt can damage your machine.

4.3 Fill the salt (IF AVAILABLE)

To add softener salt, open the salt compartment cap by turning it counterclockwise. (1) (2) At first use, fill the compartment with 1 kg of salt and water (3) until it is almost overflowing. If available, using a funnel (4) will make filling easier. Replace the cap and close it. After every 20-30 cycles, add salt into your machine until it fills up (approx. 1 kg).

Only add water to the salt compartment on first use.

Use softener salt specifically produced for use in dishwashers.

When you start your dishwasher, the salt compartment is filled with water, so put the softener salt in prior to starting your machine.

If the softener salt has overflowed and you do not start the machine immediately, run a short washing program to protect your machine against corrosion.

4.4. Test Strip

	Run water through the tap (1min.)	Keep the strip in the water (1sec)	Shake the strip.	Wait (1min.)	Set the hardness level of your machine.

NOTE: The level is set to 3 as default. If the water is well water or has a hardness level above 90 dF, we recommend that you use filter and refinement devices.

4.5. Water Hardness Table

Level	German dH	French dF	British dE	Indicator
1 0-5	0-9 0-6 L1 is seen	on the display.
2 6-11	10-20 7-14 L2 is	seen on the display.
3 12-17	21-30 15-21 L3	is seen on the display.
4 18-22	31-40 22-28 L4	is seen on the display.
5 23-31	41-55 29-39 L5	is seen on the display.
6 32-50	56-90 40-63 L6	is seen on the display.

4.6. Water Softener System

The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which reduces the hardness in the mains water supply. To find out the hardness level of your tap water, contact your water company or use the test strip (if available).

4.7. Setting

• Turn the machine on by pressing the On/Off button.
• Press the Program button for at least 3 seconds immediately after the machine is turned on.
• Release the Program button when "SL" is shown. Next, the last setting level is displayed.
• Press the program button to set the desired level. Each press of the program button increases the level. Once level 6 has been reached, the next press returns the level to 1.
• The last selected water hardness level is stored in the memory by turning the machine off with the On/Off button.

4.8. Detergent usage

Only use detergents specifically designed for domestic dishwashers. Keep your detergents in cool, dry places out of reach of children.

Add the proper detergent for the selected program to ensure the best performance. The

amount of detergent needed depends on the cycle, load size, and soil level of dishes.

Do not fill detergent into the detergent compartment more than required; otherwise you can see whitish streaks or bluish layers on glass and dishes and may cause glass corrosion. Continued use of too much detergent may cause machine damage.

Using little detergent can result in poor cleaning and you can see whitish streaks in hard water.

See the detergent manufacturer's instructions for further information.

4.9. Filling the detergent

Push the latch to open the dispenser and pour in the detergent.

Close the lid and press it until it locks in place. The dispenser should be refilled just before the start of each programme. If the dishes are heavily soiled, place additional detergent in the pre-wash detergent chamber.

4.10. Using combined detergents

These products should be used according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Never put combined detergents into the interior section or the cutlery basket.

Combined detergents contain not only the detergent but also rinse-aid, salt replacement substances and additional components depending on the combination.

We recommend you do not use combined detergents in short programmes. Please use powder detergents instead.

If you encounter problems when using combined detergents, please contact the detergent manufacturer.

When you stop using combined detergents, make sure that water hardness and rinse aid settings are set to the correct level.

4.11 Rinse-aid usage

The rinse aid helps to dry the dishes without streaks and stains. Rinse-aid is required for stain-free utensils and clear glasses. The rinse aid is automatically released during the hot rinse phase. If rinse aid dosage setting is set too low, whitish stains remain on dishes and dishes do not dry and wash clean.

If the rinse aid dosage setting is set too high, you may see bluish layers on glassware and dishes.

4.12. Filling the rinse aid and setting

To fill the rinse aid compartment, open the rinse aid compartment cap. Fill the compartment with rinse aid up to the MAX level, then close the cap. Be careful not to overfill the rinse aid compartment and wipe up any spills.

To change the rinse aid level, follow the steps below before turning on the machine:

• Turn on the machine by pressing the On/Off button.
• Press the Programme button for at least 5 seconds immediately after the machine is turned on.
• Release the Programme button when "rA" is shown. The rinse aid level setting follows the water hardness level setting. Next, the last setting level is displayed.
• Set the level by pressing the programme button.
• Switch off the machine to save the setting.
• The factory setting is "4".

If the dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, increase the level. If blue stains form on your dishes, decrease the level.

4 3 doses	are dispensed	r4 is shown on the display.
5 4 doses	are dispensed	r5 is shown on the display.

5. LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER

For best results, follow these loading guidelines.

Loading the household dishwasher up to the capacity indicated by the manufacturer will contribute to energy and water savings.

Manual pre-rinsing of tableware items leads to increased water and energy consumption and is not recommended. You can place cups, glasses, stemware, small plates, bowls, etc. in the upper basket. Do not lean long glasses against one another or they cannot remain steady and may be damaged.

When placing long stem glasses and goblets, lean them against the basket edge or rack and not against other items.

Place all containers such as cups, glasses and pots into the dishwasher with the opening facing downwards otherwise water can collect on items.

If there is cutlery basket in machine, you are recommended to use the cutlery grid in order to obtain the best result. Place all large (pots, pans, lids, plates, bowls etc.) and very dirty items in the lower rack.

Dishes and cutlery should not be placed above each other.

WARNING: Take care not to obstruct rotation of spray arms.

WARNING: Make sure after loading the dishes do not prevent opening the detergent dispenser.

5.1. Recommendations

Remove any coarse residue on dishes before placing the dishes in the machine. Start the machine with full load.

Do not overload the drawers or place dishes in the wrong basket.

WARNING: To avoid any possible injury, place long-handle and sharp-edged knives with their sharp points facing down or horizontally on the baskets.

8. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning your dishwasher is important to maintain the machine's service life. Make sure that the water softening setting (if available) is done correctly and the correct amount of detergent is used to prevent limescale accumulation. Refill the salt compartment when the salt sensor light comes on.

Oil and limescale may build up in your dishwasher over time. If this occurs:

- Fill the detergent compartment but do not load any dishes. Select a programme which runs at high temperature and run the dishwasher empty. If this does not clean your dishwasher sufficiently, use a cleaning agent designed for use with dishwashers.

• To extend the life of your dishwasher, clean the appliance regularly each month.

- Wipe the door seals regularly with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated residue or foreign objects.

8.1. Filters

Clean the filters and spray arms at least once a week. If any food waste remains or foreign objects are on the coarse and fine filters, remove them and clean them thoroughly with water.

a) Micro Filter

b) Coarse Filter

c) Metal Filter

To remove and clean the filter combination, turn it counterclockwise and remove it by lifting it upwards (1). Pull the coarse filter out of the micro filter (2). Then pull and remove the metal filter (3). Rinse the filter with lots of water until it is free of residue. Reassemble the filters. Replace the filter insert, and rotate it clockwise (4).

- Never use your dishwasher without a filter.

- Incorrect fitting of the filter will reduce the washing effectiveness.

- Clean filters are necessary for proper running of the machine.

8.2. Spray arms

Make sure that the spray holes are not clogged and that no food waste or foreign object is stuck to the spray arms. If there is any clogging, remove the spray arms and clean them under water. To remove the upper spray arm, undo the nut holding it in position by turning it clockwise and pulling it downwards. Make sure that the nut is properly tightened when refitting the upper spray arm.

8.3 Drain Pump

Large food residues or foreign objects which were not captured by the filters may block the waste water pump. The rinsing water will then be above the filter.

Warning: Risk of cuts!

When cleaning the waste water pump, ensure that you do not injure yourself on pieces of broken glass or pointed implements.

In this case:

1. First always disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
2. Take out baskets.
3. Remove the filters.
4. Scoop out water, use a sponge if required.
5. Check the area and remove any foreign objects.
6. Install filters.
7. Re-insert baskets.
