• Fill the rinse aid dispenser If you want to use combi detergent tablets such as: '3 in 1', '4 in 1', '5 in 1' etc. set the multitab function. (Refer to 'Multitab function'). Setting the water softener The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, 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 your water is. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German degrees (dH°), French degrees (°TH) and mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit for the hardness of water). Water hardness 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. The water softener must be set in two ways: manually, using the water hardness dial and electronically. Adjusting the water hardness setting Use of salt °dH °TH mmol/l manually electronically

Water hardness Adjusting the water hardness setting Use of salt °dH °TH mmol/l manually electronically

Setting manually The dishwasher is factory set at position

1. Open the dishwasher door.

2. Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.

3. Turn the water hardness dial to position

4. Replace the lower basket.

Setting electronically The appliance is factory set at level 5.

1. Press the on/off button. The appliance

must be in setting mode.

2. Simultaneously press and hold function

buttons B and C, until the lights of function buttons A, B and C start flashing.

3. Press function button A

– the lights of function buttons B and C go off, – the light of function button A continues to flash, – at the same time the end of programme indicator light starts to flash, – a sequence of intermittent audible signals are heard. The current level is indicated by the number of flashes of the end of programme indicator light and of the intermittent audible signals. Examples: – 5 flashes / 5 intermittent audible signals - pause - 5 flashes / 5 intermittent audible signals - pause, etc. = level 5 – 6 flashes / 6 intermittent audible signals - pause - 6 flashes / 6 intermittent audible signals - pause, etc. = level 6

4. To change the level, press function button A. Each time the button is pressed the

level changes. (For the selection of the new level refer to the chart). Examples: – If the current level is 5, by pressing function button A once, level 6 is selected, – if the current level is 10, by pressing function button A once, level 1 is selected.

5. To memorize the operation, switch off the

appliance. Use of dishwasher salt Warning! 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 soft- ener. 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 spilt, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.

1. Open the door, remove the lower basket

and unscrew the cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.

2. Pour 1 litre of water into the container

(this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time) .

3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt

until the container is full.

4. Replace the cap making sure that there

is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.

5. Replace the cap tightly turning it clockwise until it stops with a click.

Do not worry if water overflows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal. The salt indicator light can remain on for a few hours after the salt has been replenished. If you are using salt that takes longer to dissolve then this can take longer. The operation of the appliance is not affected. Use of rinse aid Warning! Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance. Rinse aid ensures thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse.

1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A).

2. Add the rinse aid in the container. The

maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".

The dispenser holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for between 16 and 40 washing cycles, depending upon the dosage setting.

3. Ensure that the lid is closed after every

refill. Top up the rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes clear. Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash. According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage). The dose is factory set in position 4. 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. Daily use

• Check if it’s necessary to refill with dishwasher salt or rinse aid.
• Load cutlery and dishes into the dishwasher.
• Fill with dishwasher detergent.
• Select a wash programme suitable for the cutlery and dishes.
• Start the wash programme. Helpful hints and tips Sponges, household cloths and any object that can absorb water may not be washed in the dishwasher.
• Before loading the dishes, you should: – Remove all left over food and debris. – Soften remnants of burnt food in pans

• When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note: – Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the spray arms. – Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with the opening 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 to glasses, they must not touch. – Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.

• Plastic items and pans with non stick coatings have a tendency to retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel items.

• Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move. For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery and dishes are not suitable: are of limited suitability:

Loading cutlery and dishes The lower basket The lower basket is designed to take saucepan, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Service dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the spray arms can turn freely. The rows of prongs in the lower basket can lie flat to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls. The cutlery basket Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard. Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives. Forks and spoons should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards and the knives with their handles facing upwards.

Glasses with long stems can be placed upside down in the cup racks. For taller items, the cup racks can be folded upwards. If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the handles facing upwards. Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking together. For best results we recommend that you use the cutlery grid (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it). Before closing the door, ensured that the spray arms can rotate freely. Adjusting the height of the upper basket If washing very large plates you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position. The upper basket The upper basket is designed for plates (up to 26 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups, glasses, pots and lids. Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces. Prevent to put plates in the first three sectors in the front part of the basket. Make sure the plates tilt forward. Maximum height of the dishes in the lower basket upper basket lower basket With upper basket raised 22 cm 33 cm With upper basket lowered 26 cm 29 cm To move to the higher position proceed as follows:

1. Pull out the basket until it stops.

2. Carefully lift both sides upwards until the

mechanism is engaged and the basket is stable.

1. Pull out the basket until it stops.

2. Carefully lift both sides upwards and then

allow the mechanism to drop back down slowly, keeping hold of it. Never lift or lower the basket on one side only With the upper basket raised adjust the cup racks in the lowest position. After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard. To lower the basket to the original position proceed as follows: Use of detergent Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers. Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging. Using no more than the correct amount of detergent contributes to reducing pollution.

3. All programmes with prewash need an

additional detergent dose (5/10 g) that must be placed in the prewash detergent chamber (2). This detergent will be used during the prewash phase. When using detergent tablets; place the tablet in compartment (1)

2. Fill the detergent dispenser (1) with detergent. The marking indicates the dosing

levels: 20 = approximately 20 g of detergent 30 = approximately 30 g of detergent.

4. Close the lid and press until it locks in

place. Detergent tablets from different manufacturers dissolve at different rates. For this reason, some detergent tablets do not attain their full cleaning power during short washing programmes. Therefore, please use long washing programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals. Multitab function This appliance is equipped with the multitab function, that allows the use of the multitab combi detergent tablets. These products are detergents with a combined cleaning, rinsing and salt functions. They can also contain other different agents depending on which kind of tablets you choose ('3 in 1', '4 in 1', '5 in 1' etc.). Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hardness. See the manufacturers instructions. Once this function is selected it will remain active for all following wash programmes. With the selection of this function the inflow of rinse aid and salt from each respective supply container is automatically deactivated and also the indicator light for salt is deactivated. When using the multitab function, the cycle duration may change. Activate/deactivate the multitab function before the start of a washing programme. Once the programme is running, the multitab function can no longer be changed. If you want to cancel the multitab function you have to cancel the programme setting and then deactivate the multitab function. In this case you have to set a washing programme (and desired options) again.

2. To a stand pipe provided with venthole,

minimum internal diameter 4 cm. max 85 cm max 400 cm Water inlet connection This appliance can be connected to either a hot (max. 60°) or cold water supply. With a hot water supply you can have a significant reduction of energy consumption. This however, depends on how the hot water is produced. (We suggest alternative sources of energy that are more environmentally friendly as e.g. solar or photovoltaic panels and aeolian). For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the appliance water inlet hose is designed to screw onto a 3/4" thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Press-block. The water pressure must be within the limits given in the 'Technical data'. Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average mains pressure in your area. The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled when it is being connected. The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. If the appliance is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. min 40 cm The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher Ensure the drain hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water. The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is draining as this could cause the water to syphon back into the machine. If you use a drain hose extension, its internal diameter must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.

Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided. When connecting the drain hose to an under sink trap spigot, the entire plastic membrane (A) must be removed. Failure to remove all the membrane will result in food particles building up over time eventually blocking the dishwasher drain hose spigot Our appliances are supplied with a security device to protect against the return of dirty water back into the machine. If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve" incorporated this can prevent the correct draining of your dishwasher. We therefore advise you to remove it. To avoid water leakage after installation make sure that the water couplings are tight. Electrical connection Warning! Safety standards require the appliance to be earthed. Prior to using the appliance for the first time, ensure that the rated voltage and type of supply on the rating plate match that of the supply where the appliance is to be installed. The fuse rating is also to be found on the rating plate. Always plug the mains plug into a correctly installed shockproof socket. Multi-way plugs, connectors and extension cables must not be used. This could constitute a fire hazard through overheating. If necessary, have the domestic wiring system socket replaced. In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced, contact your local Service Force centre. The plug must be accessible after the appliance has been installed. Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the cable. Always pull the plug. The manufacturer accepts no liability for failure to observe the above safety precautions.
