BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR DISHWASHER

Before connecting your dishwasher to the power supply, check that the voltage stated on the rating label of your appliance corresponds to the voltage in your home. The appliance must be grounded. The manufacturer is not responsible for damages that may occur as a result of usage without grounding. WARNING: Disconnect electrical power before installing your dishwasher.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Your dishwasher can be installed in various locations in your kitchen as long as there is space and accessibility to connect your dishwasher to the water/drainage and electrical supply.

Do not connect an extension lead to the appliance to avoid potential safety hazards.

Applying the Condensation Strip

The condensation strip must be fitted to the underside of the worktop to protect it against the ingress of moisture.

1. Ensure that the underneath of the worktop is clean.
2. Separate the backing paper away from the strip.
3. Stick the condensation strip to the underneath of the worktop.

Cold Water Connection

The installation of the hose should be done by professionals.

Connect the supplied water supply hose to a threaded 3 / 4'' 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. This precaution is needed to avoid the risk of the water inlet to be blocked and damage the appliance.

Connection of the Drain Hose

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4cm , or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. The height of drain pipe must be less than 1000mm . The free end of the hose must not be immersed in water to avoid the back flow of it.

Please securely fix the drain hose in either position A or position B. The installation of the hose should be done by professionals.

If leaks are detected, immediately shut the water supply and check the hose connections fully. Re-tighten the connections if necessary.

If for any reason you are unable to stop the leak yourself, please seek advice from a qualified plumber.

Electrical Connection

The installation of electrical equipment should be done by professionals.

• 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.

Ensure the voltage and frequency of the dishwasher correspond to those indicated 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.

Levelling Your Dishwasher

Dishwasher must be level for proper dish rack operation and wash performance.

1. Place a spirit level on door and rack track inside the tub as shown to check that the dishwasher is level.
2. Level the dishwasher by adjusting the three levelling legs individually.
3. When level the dishwasher, please pay attention not to let the dishwasher tip over. The maximum adjustment height of the feet is 50~mm .

Cabinet Opening Requirements

There should be at least a 50 mm gap between the side of the dishwasher door and the wall or cabinet next to it.

Preparing and Assembling the Aesthetic Panel (not supplied)

(Unit: mm)

1. The aesthetic panel could be processed according to the above illustrated dimensions.
2. Install the hook on the aesthetic panel (see figure A).
3. Put the hook into the slot of the door of the dishwasher (see figure B).
4. After positioning of the panel, press the top of the aesthetic panel to make sure the hooks are fastened.

Securing the Dishwasher in Place

There are two ways to do this:

A. Normal work surface: Put the installation hook into the slot of the side plane and secure it to the work surface with the screws.
B. Marble or granite work top: Fix the side with Screw.

BEFORE LOADING THE BASKETS

• Remove coarse food remains, e.g. bones, which may clog the filter or damage the wash pump.
• Soak any pots or pans with burnt-on food remains on the bottom then load them into the basket.

WARNING:

• Make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that they cannot tip over or obstruct the rotation of the spray arms during the washing cycle.
• Containers such as cups, bowls, glasses and pots should always be loaded with the opening facing downwards and with any cavities at an angle, to allow the water to drain out.
• Do not stack dishes.
• Do not place glasses too close together because they may knock against each other and break.
• Load large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower basket.
• Make sure that the items being washed are dishwasher-safe.

FOLDING SPIKES

The spikes of the lower basket are used to hold plates and a platter. They can be folded down to make more room for large items.

USING THE WATER SOFTENER

The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will be formed on the utensils. This appliance is equipped with a water softener which uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate the minerals from the water.

CAUTION:

• Only use salt specially formulated for domestic dishwashers.

• Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which may damage the water softening system.

• Fill the salt container before starting the washing program. In this way, the excess saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank may lead to corrosion.

Filling with salt

The salt container must be refilled when the salt warning light illuminates.

1. Remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap from the salt container.
2. Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and pour in about 1.5kg dishwasher salt.
3. Fill the salt container to its maximum limit with water.

It is normal for small amount of water to come out of the salt container.

1. Screw back the cap tightly.

NOTE: Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the salt container is filled.

Function of the rinse aid

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes.

WARNING! 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.

Function of the detergent

The chemical ingredients that compose the detergent are necessary to remove, crush and dispense all dirt out of the dishwasher.

WARNING!

• Proper use of detergent
• Use only detergent specifically made for dishwasher use. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.
• Do not put powdered detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to wash dishes.
• Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Keep it out of the reach of children.

Filling the rinse aid dispenser

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Always switch off and unplug the appliance before cleaning.
• To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.
• Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they may scratch the finish.

Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of clean water and detergent (under pressure) against the soiled surface of dishes. The water is pumped through a rotating spray arm, drained through a filter removing food and soiled particles and pumped back through the spray arm.

Soiled water is pumped out and replaced with clean water at the end of each cycle (the number of times depends on the cycle being used).

NOTE:

Hard water conditions will adversely affect washability performance of your dishwasher. Hard water conditions will also contribute to "Lime" (white film substance) deposits and/or "Scaling" on the stainless steel surface of the dishwasher tub and heater element located in the sump underneath the removable filter screen.

To minimise these conditions, it is recommended to periodically operate/rinse the inside of the dishwasher (empty) using 1 cup of white vinegar (at least once a week).

Cleaning the door and the door seal

Clean the door seals regularly with a soft damp cloth to remove food deposits.

When the dishwasher is being loaded, food and drink residues may drip onto the sides of the dishwasher door. These surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and are not accessed by water from the spray arms.

Any deposits should be wiped off before the door is closed.

Cleaning the control panel

If cleaning is required, the control panel should be wiped with a soft damp cloth only.

Cleaning the filtering system

The filtering system in the base of the wash cabinet retains coarse debris from the washing cycle. The collected coarse debris may cause the filters to clog. Check the condition of the filters regularly and clean them if necessary under running water.

Follow the steps below to clean the filters in the wash cabinet.

Hold the coarse filter and rotate it anticlockwise to unlock the filter. Lift the filter upwards and out of the dishwasher.

Pull the fine filter off the filter assembly. Detach the coarse filter from the main filter by gently squeezing the tabs at the top and pulling it away.

3 Rinse the filters under running water. For a more thorough clean, use a soft cleaning brush.

4 Reassemble the filters, replace the filter insert, and rotate clockwise to the close arrow.

WARNING!

• Do not over tighten the filters. Put the filters back in sequence securely, otherwise coarse debris could get into the system and cause a blockage.
• Never use the dishwasher without filters in place. Improper replacement of the filters may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.

Cleaning the spray arms

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly, otherwise hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings.

To clean the spray arms, follow the instructions below:

1 To remove the upper spray arm, hold the nut in the centre still and rotate the spray arm anticlockwise to remove it.

To remove the lower spray arm, pull out the spray arm upward.

3

Wash the arms in warm soapy

Water using a soft brush.

Replace them after rinsing

them thoroughly.

Frost precaution

Please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter. Every time after washing cycles, please operate as follows:

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

After every wash

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

No solvents or abrasive cleaning

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water.

To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water an a little vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

When not in use for a long time

It is recommend that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the mains socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly open. This will help the door seals to last longer and prevent odors from forming within 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.

Cleaning the seals

One of the factors that cause odours to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals.

Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.

Reviewing the charts on the following pages may save you from calling for service.
