Frequently Asked Questions - 3LVF-625 FAGOR

How to install the dishwasher correctly?

Make sure the appliance is level and connected to the water supply and drainage. The water pressure should be from 0.04 to 1.0 MPa. Use the supplied hoses and check that there are no leaks before starting it.

How much salt and rinse aid should I use?

The amount depends on the water hardness. For salt, fill the reservoir to the brim with dishwasher-specific salt. The rinse aid is adjusted using the regulator, usually at a level of 2 to 4. See the instruction manual for details.

Which is the most efficient program to save energy?

The Eco program is the most efficient, as it uses less water and energy. Although it takes longer, it is designed for optimal cleaning with the least environmental impact.

What to do if the dishwasher does not clean the dishes well?

Check that the load does not obstruct the movement of the spray arms. Verify that the filters are clean and that the water pressure is adequate. Also make sure to use the correct detergent in the appropriate amount.

How to keep the filter clean?

Remove the filter from the bottom and rinse it under running water. Use a soft brush if necessary. It is recommended to clean the filter at least once a month to avoid blockages and bad odors.

What does error E15 mean?

The E15 code indicates a possible overflow or water leak. Close the stopcock, disconnect the appliance and check that there is no water accumulated at the base. If it persists, contact technical support.

Can I open the dishwasher during the cycle?

It is not advisable to open the door during the wash, as the cycle stops and may generate an error. If you need to open it, wait for the appliance to cool down or cancel the program safely.

How to fix the dishwasher not draining?

Check that the drain hose is not bent or blocked. Inspect the filter and the pump area for any food residues. Clean these elements and try a rinse cycle.

Is it necessary to use detergent in the quick program?

Yes, although the quick program is short, it requires detergent. Use tablet or gel detergent and reduce the amount if the load is small to avoid excess foam.

How to care for the door gaskets?

Clean the rubber gaskets with a damp cloth and dry them well to prevent mold and bad odors. Regularly check that they are not damaged to ensure a perfect seal.

WATER SUPPLY CONNECTION

Make sure that domestic water supply system is suitable for the dishwasher. It is recommended to install a filter in the water supply line to avoid damage to the appliance due to impurities (such as sand, clay, rust, etc.) that occasionally occur in water. This will also prevent accumulation of sediment after dishwashing.

WATER SUPPLY HOSE

Do not use the water supply hose from the old dishwasher. Use the new water supply hose provided with the appliance. Before connecting, rinse the hose with water. Connect the water supply hose directly to the water feed valve. The domestic water system pressure should be at least 0.04 MPa and up to 1 MPa. If the water pressure exceeds 1 MPa, install pressure reducing valve.

When the connection is ready, open the valve completely and check for leaks.

For safety reasons, close the water supply tap after every wash.

NOTE: Aquastop water supply is used in some dishwasher models. Dangerous voltage could occur with Aquastop. Do not cut the Aquastop water supply. Do not allow it to bend or twist

Note: For safety reasons, close the water tap after every wash

THE DRAIN HOSE

The drain hose can be connected directly to a water drain or kitchen sink stub pipe. You can also drain the water directly into the sink using the special bracket (if available), placing the drain hose outlet on the kitchen sink edge. The drain hose connection should be made at least 50 cm and up to 110 cm from the floor.

If the drain hose is longer than 4 m, dishes may not be washed properly. The manufacturer will not be held responsible.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Grounded plug must be connected to a grounded power outlet with a proper voltage. If there is no grounding, refer this to a qualified electrician. If you operate the appliance without proper grounding, the manufacturer does not assume any liability for the possible resulting damage.

Domestic electrical system must be protected with a 10-16A fuse. The appliance must be supplied with 220-240 V AC. If the supply voltage is 110 V, use 3000W, 110/220 V set-up transformer to connect the appliance. Do not connect the appliance during installation.

C. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
D. Function of detergent

2

Set the Water Softener

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 higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder the 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.

5

Add special salt

Always use salt intended for use with dishwasher.

NOTE: If your model has no 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 salts specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water.

The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as follows:

Attention

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. In case of damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any caused damages. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been split, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion. After the first wash cycle the control panel light expires.

A. Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container (1).
B. If you are filling the container for the first time, fill the container with about 500 ml of water (2).
C. Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2kg of salt. It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.
D. Carefully screw the cap back on.
E. Usually, the salt warning light will be off in 2-6 days after the salt container is filled with salt.

NOTE:

1. The salt container must be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on. Though the salt container is filled enough, the indicator light may not black out before the salt fully dissolve. If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some models), you can judge when to load the salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher had run (see the following schema).
2. If there are spills of the salt, a soak program could be run to wipe them out.

Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

Function of Rinse Aid

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, spot and streak free drying.

Attention! 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 Dispenser

If there is no rinse-aid warning light on the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the color of the optical level indicator "D" located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole indicator will be dark .As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1 / 4 full.

6

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

Full

3 / 4 full

1 / 2 full

1 / 4 full - Should refill to eliminate spotting

Empty

7

Rinse aid dispenser

1. To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.
2. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, be careful not to overfill.
3. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the "closed" (right) arrow.

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to sheet off the dishes. Your dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid container is about 140 ml. Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.

Attention!

Clean up any rinse aid split during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.

Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser

The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always start with the dispenser set on "5". If spots and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "6". The dose is factory set in position 5 or 4.

NOTE: Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing.

Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.

8

Function of Detergent

Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out of the dishwasher. Most of commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.

Concentrated Detergent

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

conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes

The use of “Eco” washing programme in conjunction with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these washing programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason“Eco” washing programme in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using“intensive” programme.

Detergent Tablets

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

Detergent Dispenser

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

Amount of Detergent to Use

NOTE:

1. If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid springs open.
2. Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle. Only use branded detergent aid for dishwasher.

WARNING!

Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children.

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.

Fill in the detergent

Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent. The marking indicates the dosing levels, as illustrated on the right:

1. The place of main wash cycle detergent placed, MIN means approximately 20g of detergent.
2. The place of pre-wash cycle detergent placed, approximately 5g of detergent.

Please observe the manufacturer's dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.

Close the lid and press until it locks in place.

If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent dose in the pre-wash detergent.

Chamber. This detergent will take effect during the pre-wash phase.

NOTE:

You can find information on the amount of detergent used for individual programs on page 16. Please be aware that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of water, differences are possible.

Please observe the manufacturer's recommendations on the detergent packaging.

Detergents

There are 3 sorts of detergents

1. With phosphate and with chlorine

2. With phosphate and without chlorine

3. Without phosphate and without chloride

Normally new pulverized detergent is without phosphate. The water softener function of phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate were used in case of hard water often white spots appear at dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not remove completely. In this case please choose a programme with higher temperature.

Tips:

1. All washing procedures are compatible with 3in1 wash blocks or beads except the pre-washing.

LOAD DISHES INTO DISHWASHER

For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of baskets and silverware baskets may vary from your model.

Attention before or after Loading the Dishwasher Baskets

Scrape off any large amounts of leftover food. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water.

Place objects in the dishwasher in the following way:

1.Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are stood upside down.

2.Curve items, or those with recesses, should be at a slant so that water can run off.

1. They are stacked securely and can not tip over.

2. They do not prevent the spray arms from rotating while washing takes place.

Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the baskets.

Removing the Dishes

To prevent water dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we recommend that you empty the lower basket first and then the upper basket.

1

Loading the Upper Basket

The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cup 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 do not get moved by the spray of water.

Change the Programme

Premise: A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it has only been running for a short time. Otherwise, the detergent may have already been released, and the appliance may have already drained the wash water. If this is the case, the detergent dispenser must be refilled (see the section entitled „Fill in the Detergent „).

1: Press the „Power” button to cancel the program.

Forget to Add Dish

A forgotten dish can be added any time before the detergent cup opens.

1 Open the door a little to stop the washing.
2 After the spray arms stop working, you can open the door completely.
3 Add forgotten dishes.
4 Close the door, the dishwasher will work after ten seconds.

It is dangerous to open the door when washing, because the hot water may scald you.

Switch Off the Dishwasher

The digital display appears “---”, only in this case the program has ended.

1. Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the Power button.

2. Turn off the water tap!

Open the door carefully. Hot steam may escape when the door is opened!

Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down around 15 minutes before removing from the appliance.

Open the dishwasher's door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes. In this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.

Unloading the dishwasher

It is normal that the dishwasher is wet inside.

Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one. This will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Filtering System

The filter is used to avoid the big remnants and other sundries getting inside the pump. The residue can obstruct the filter in sometime.

The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a flat (Main filter) and a micro filter (fine filter).

1 Flat filter

Food and debris will be trapped by a special jet on the lower spray arm.

2 Coarse filter

Big debris, such as bone and glass that could clog the drain will be trapped in the coarse filter. To remove an item caught in this filter, gently squeeze the taps on the top of this filter and lift it out.

3 Micro filter

This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being redeposit on the dishes during a cycle.

• Inspect the filters for obstructions 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.

Step 1 contrarotate the Coarse filter, and then lift it up;
Step 2 lift the Flat filter up

NOTE: If operate from step 1 to step 2, the filter system will be removed; while operate from step 2 to step 1, the filter system will be installed.

Filter assembly

For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned. The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull on the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned once a week. To clean the coarse filter and the micro filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figures above and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat and pressing downward. The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.

Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place. When cleaning the filters, don't knock on them. Otherwise, the filters could be contorted and the performance of dishwasher could be debased.

2

Cleaning the Spray Arms

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings. To remove the spray arms, screw off the nut clockwise to take out the washer on top of the spray arm and remove the arm. Wash the arms in soapy and warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing thoroughly.

3

Caring for the Dishwasher

To clean the control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth then dry thoroughly. To clean the exterior, use a good appliance polish wax. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

4

Protect Against Freezing

If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technical to:

1. Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.
2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
   3.Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)
3. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
4. Remove the filter in the tub and the bottom and use a sponge to use up water in sump.

5

Cleaning the Door

To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp rag. To prevent penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind. Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they will scratch the finish. Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel for it could damage the door lock and electrical components. It is not allowed to use the abrasive agent or some paper towel because of the risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.

How to Keep Your Dishwasher in Shape:

After Every Wash

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

Remove the Plug

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.

No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Use only a cloth and warm soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

When You Go on holiday

When you go on holiday, it is recommended 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 ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming in 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 odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this.

Attention:

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

Electrical Shock Hazard! Disconnect electrical power before installing dishwasher. Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.
