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 sup

ply hose directly to the water feed valve. The domestic water system pressure should be at least 0.03MPa 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

Important!

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 4m dishes may not be washed properly. The manufacturer is not be held responsible for such a situation

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 110V use 3000W, 110 / 220V set-up transformer to connect the appliance. Do not connect the appliance during installation.

Always use the plug provided with the appliance. When you operate the appliance

at lower voltage the dishwashing efficiency will deteriorate and may damage the appliance.

The power cord may only be replaced by authorized service or a qualified electrician. Failure to comply with these rules may lead to an accident.

For safety reasons, you should always unplug the appliance after you have finished using it.

In order not to avoid electric shock, do not remove the plug from the wall outlet with wet hands.

Before first use

Before using the appliance, verify that the data given on the rating plate matches that of local power outlets.
- Remove all packing materials from inside of the appliance.
Prepare special salt (water softener).
- Add 2 kg special salt (intended for dishwashers) to the salt dispenser and fill it with water to the brim.
Pour into the rinse aid dispenser.

The importance of water descending

A dishwasher requires soft water (with low calcium content) to operate efficiently. Otherwise, white residue main remain on the dishes and inside the appliance. This has a negative impact on the quality of dishwashing, rinsing and drying. When the water flows through the softener, ions responsible for the water hardness are removed, and the water becomes soft, for best dishwashing results. Depending on the degree of water hardness, the ions responsible for water hardness accumulate quickly inside the water softener. Therefore, the water softener must be regenerated to operate with the same efficiency during the next wash. This is why special salt is used in the dishwasher.

Add special salt

Only use special salt intended for dishwashers. To add special salt you must first remove the lower basket and then open the lid of the salt dispenser by turning it counter clockwise - (1). Fill the special salt dispenser ( 1.5 kg of special salt) and water

The test strip

The dishwashing effectiveness is linked to water hardness. Therefore, the appliance is equipped with a system to reduce the hardness of the water supply. The dishwashing effectiveness is improved when the system is set correctly. To check water hardness contact the municipal water company or determined the water hardness using test strip (if available).

Open the test strip package	Open the water tap for 1 min.	Immerse the test strip in the water for 1 second.	Once removed shake off the residual water	Wait 1 min.	Set the dishwasher water hardness in accordance with the measurement made Level 1 – no calcium Level 2 – very small calcium content Level 3 – small calcium content Level 4 – medium calcium content Level 5 – high calcium content Level 6 - very high calcium content
		1 second		1 minute	Level 1 No Lime Level 2 Very low lime content Level 3 Low lime content Level 4 Medium lime content Level 5 Lime content Level 6 High lime content

(2) using the supplied funnel (2). Replace and close the lid. If the salt indicator on the control panel lights up, refill the special salt dispenser.

Use only the special salt intended for dishwashers.

Fill the salt container with water only before first use.

Do not add kitchen salt to the dishwasher. The salt dispenser can degrade over time. When you start a programme special salt dispenser is filled with water. Therefore, you should pour the special salt before starting the dishwasher.

Special salt will be washed away during the dishwashing programme. If you pour the special salt and do not intend to run a dishwashing programme, run the quick programme with an empty dishwasher in order to prevent corrosion.

Fill the detergent dispenser

Press latch to open the detergent dispenser, as shown in figure. (1) The detergent dispenser features volume marking. Using these markings (lines) you can measure the correct amount of detergent. The dispenser can accommodate a maximum of 30g of detergent. Open the pack with dishwasher detergent and in the case of heavily soiled dishes pour 25~cm^3 detergent into the main wash compartment (b) or 15~cm^3 for less soiled dishes. (2) If the dishes remained unwashed for an extended period of time or if food has dried, pour 5~cm^3 detergent (a) into the pre-wash compartment and start the dishwasher. Depending on the amount of soil and the water hardness you may need to add more detergent.

Multi-component (multitab) detergents (eg. 2-in-1, 3-in-1, etc.)

There are three types of detergents:

1. Containing phosphates and chlorine,
2. Containing phosphates and no chlorine,
3. Containing no phosphates and no chlorine. The latest tablets are generally phosphate-free. Since phosphates have water softening properties, we recommend adding salt to the container even if the water hardness is only 6^ . If you use phosphate-free detergent where water is hard, white residue may be visible on the dishes. You can prevent this by increasing the amount of detergent. Chlorine-free detergents have less bleaching effect. Stains may not be entirely removed. Select

the programme with a higher wash temperature.

Generally, using multi-component detergents suitable results are obtained only under certain conditions. Such detergents contain rinse aid and/or special salt in a specific amount. It is recommended to use special salt when using multi-component tablets.

What you should pay attention to when using these tablets.

Always check the type of detergent used and whether it is a multi-component product.
Make sure that the detergent used is appropriate for tap water hardness.
- Follow the instructions on the product packaging.
If the detergent is in the form of tablets, never place it the cutlery basket. Always place the tablet in the detergent dispenser compartment.
- The use of these detergents yields good results only in certain applications. Using this type of detergent you should contact the manufacturer for information about proper use.
If you use the detergent properly and dishwasher settings are correct you can save on salt and/or rinse aid.
- If dishwashing results while using 2-in-1 or 3-in-1 detergents are not satisfactory (traces of lime scale on the dishes), please contact the detergent manufacturer. The warranty does not cover complaints due to the use of multi-component detergents.

Recommended use: For best results using multi-component cleaning agents, add special salt and rinse aid in the dishwasher and set the water hardness and amount of rinse aid to the lowest setting.

The solubility of the detergent tablets made by different manufacturers can vary with regard to temperature and time. It is therefore not recommended to use detergent tablets in quick programmes. It is recommended to use powder detergents in quick programmes.

Always store detergents in a dry, cool place, out of reach of children. Add detergent to the dispenser immediately before using the appliance.

Warning: If encounter another problem when using a multi-component detergent, please contact the detergent manufacturer.

Stop using multi-component detergents

• Add special salt and rinse aid to dispensers.
• Set the water hardness to the highest level (6) and run an empty dishwasher.
  Adjust the water hardness.
  Adjust rinse aid setting.

Add rinse aid to the dispenser and adjust setting

Use rinse aid to prevent the formation of white water drops, lime scale spots, white streaks that may occur on the dishes, as well as to improve the drying process. Contrary to popular belief, it not only serves to obtain a shiny dishes, but also to facilitate drying. For this reason, make sure there is always sufficient amount of rinse aid in the dispenser.

If the rinse aid indicator on the control panel lights up, add rinse aid to the dispenser.

To add rinse aid remove the dispenser lid by unscrewing it (1). Add rinse aid until the level indicator becomes dark. (4) Replace the lid and turn it until markings align. Use rinse aid level indicator to make sure the level is sufficient. Dark colour (4) indicates sufficient rinse aid level in the dispenser, and the light colour (4) indicates you need to add rinse aid to the dispenser.

You can adjust rinse aid dosage from 1 to 6. The factory setting for the rinse aid is 4. Adjust to a higher dose if streaks remain on the dishes after drying or to a lower dose if blue residue collets on the dishes.

The use of detergents

Use a detergent for domestic dishwashers. On the market you can find detergent intended for dishwashers in the form of powder, gel and tablets. The detergent must be placed in the dispenser before starting the dishwasher. Store detergent in a cool and dry place, out of reach of children.

Do not overfill the detergent dispenser, otherwise the detergent may not dissolve completely and leave streaks on the dishes.

If you need more information on the detergent used, please contact the manufacturer directly.

Upper basket

The upper basket is designed for washing delicate dishes such as glasses, cups, plates, etc. Dishes that are placed in the upper basket should be less soiled than dishes in the lower basket. In addition, you can place long forks, knives and spoons horizontally on shelves so as not to obstruct the spray arms.

Fold the shelves

Fold the shelves to increase the capacity of the upper basket. You can place the glasses and mugs on the shelves.

Starting a cycle wash

1. Draw out the lower and upper basket, load the dishes and push them back. It is commended to load the lower basket first, then the upper one (see the section entitled Loading the Dishwasher).
2. Pour in the detergent (see the section entitled Salt, Detergent and Rinse Aid).
3. Insert the plug into the socket. The power supply is 220-240 VAC /50 HZ, the specification of the socket is 10A 250VAC. Make sure that the water supply is turned on to full pressure.
4. Close the door, press the On/Off button, and the On/Off light will turn on.
5. Turn the program button, the wash program will be changed as follows direction:

ECO->Glass->90 min->Rapid->Intensive->Normal;

If a program is selected, the response light will light. Then press the Start/Pause button, the dishwasher begins to start.

Change programme

Premise:

1. 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 „Loading the Detergent”).
2. Press the Start/Pause button, the machine will be in standby state, press the program button more than 3s then you can change the program to the desired cycle setting (see the section entitled „Starting a wash cycle...”).

If you open the door during a wash cycle, the machine will pause. The program light will stop blinking and the buzzer will ooing every minute unless you close the door. After you close the door, the machine will keep on working after 10 seconds. If your model has broken remember function, the machine will go on to finish the selected program after the power cut.

When the working cycle has finished, the buzzer of the dishwasher will sound for 8 seconds, then stop. Turn off the appliance using the Power switch button, shut off the water supply and open the door of the dishwasher. Wait for a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.

Switch Off the Dishwasher

The program light is on but is not blinking, only in this case the programme has ended.

1. Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON/OFF button.
2. Turn off the water tap!

Open the door carefully

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.
