Installation Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference. If the appliance is sold, given away or moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the advice contained within it. Please read this instruction manual carefully: it contains important information regarding the safe installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be tilted onto its back.This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;- farm houses;- by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;- bed and breakfast type environments. Positioning and levelling 1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and check that it has not been damaged during transportation.If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed any further with the installation process.2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or back panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single worktop

(see the Assembly instruction sheet). 3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position. If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to move or cause vibrations and noise while it is operating.4. Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of the appliance

• on the central lower part of the dishwasher, turning a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of 8 mm in a clockwise direction to increase the height or in an anticlockwise direction to decrease the height. Connecting the water and electricity supplies Connection to the water and electricity supplies should only be performed by a qualified technician.The dishwasher should not stand on top of the water hoses or the electricity supply cable.The appliance must be connected to the water supply network using new hoses.Do not use old hoses.The water inlet and outlet hoses and the electricity supply cable may be positioned towards the right or the left in order to achieve the best possible installation. Connecting the water inlet hose
• Toasuitablecoldwaterconnectionpoint:beforeattachingthe hose, run the water until it is perfectly clear so that any impurities that may be present in the water do not clog the appliance; after performing this operation, screw the inlet hose tightly onto a tap with a ¾ gas threaded connection.• Toasuitablehotwaterconnectionpoint:yourdishwashermay be supplied with hot water from the mains supply (if you have a central heating system with radiators) provided that it does not exceed a temperature of 60°C. Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection to a cold water supply.If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised technician (see Assistance). The water pressure must be within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see adjacent information). The hose should not be bent or compressed. Connecting the water outlet hose Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drain duct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm.The outlet hose must be at a height ranging from 40 to 80 cm from the floor / surface where the dishwasher rests (A).Before connecting the water outlet hose to the sink drain, remove the plastic plug (B). Anti-flooding protection To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:- is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply in the event of anomalies or leaks from inside the appliance.Some models are also equipped with the supplementary safety device New Acqua Stop *, which guarantees anti- flooding protection even in the event of a supply hose rupture.

WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE!

Under no circumstance should the water inlet hose be cut as it contains live electrical parts.

Loading the racks Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and cups.Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not tip over.After loading the appliance, check that the sprayer arms can rotate freely. Lower rack The lower rack can hold pans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery, etc. as seen in the Loading examples.Plates and large covers should be placed at the sides of the rack, ensuring that they do not block the rotation of the upper sprayer arm.Some dishwasher models are fitted with tip-up sections *, which can be used in a vertical position when arranging plates or in a horizontal position when arranging pans and salad bowls. Cutlery basket The type of cutlery basket may vary according to the dishwasher model: The cutlery basket should be positioned at the front of the lower rack, by sliding it between the fixed inserts, or on the upper rack when the half load option has been selected (in models featuring this option).- It has a collapsible sliding system which means the cutlery can be arranged in the best possible way.Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be placed in the cutlery basket with the points facing downwards, or they must be positioned horizontally in the tip-up compartments on the upper rack. Cutlery basket positioning examples Upper rack Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery: glasses, tea and coffee cups, saucers, small salad bowls, saucepans and small saucepans which are not too soiled, using the Loading examples as a guide.•Mugsandcups,longsharpknivesandservingutensils:placethese on the tip-up compartments**. Tip-up compartments with adjustable tilt* - The tilt feature can be used to increase the space in the upper rack, to position wine glasses with different stem lengths safely and to improve drying performance. -Lift the tip-up compartment, slide it gently and position it in the desired tilt angle. Adjusting the height of the upper rack In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper rack may be moved to a higher or lower level.The height of the upper rack should ideally be adjusted WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.Never lift or lower the rack on one side only.Open the left and right guide rail stops and pull out the rack; position it higher or lower as required, slide it along the guide rails until the front wheels are in place and close the stops (see figure).If the rack is fitted with “Dual Space” handles (see figure), pull out the upper rack until it reaches its stop point, grip the handles at the sides of the rack and move it upwards or downwards, then slowly let it fall back into place.

Start-up and use Starting the dishwasher 1. Turn the water tap on. 2. Open the door and press the ON/OFF button: you will hear a short beep and the display and option indicator lights switch on.3. Measure out the detergent (see below).4. Load the racks (see Loading the racks).5. Select the wash cycle in accordance with the type of crockery and its soil level (see Table of wash cycles), by pressing the P button.6. Select the wash options (see adjacent information).7. Start the wash cycle by shutting the door: a long beep signals the start of the wash cycle.8. Two short beeps and one long one indicate the end of the wash cycle and the wash cycle number flashes on the display. Open the door, switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button, shut off the water tap and unplug the appliance from the electricity socket.9. Wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery, in order to avoid burns. Unload the racks, beginning with the lower level. - The machine will switch off automatically during certain periods of inactivity, in order to minimise electricity consumption. AUTO WASH CYCLES*: this model of dishwasher is equipped with a special sensor which can be used to assess the level of soiling and automatically select the most efficient and economic wash cycle accordingly.The duration of the auto wash cycles may vary due to the operation of the sensor.If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if it has been rinsed with water before being placed in the dishwasher, reduce the amount of detergent used accordingly. Modifying a wash cycle in progress If a mistake was made during the wash cycle selection process it is possible to change the cycle, provided that it has only just begun: open the door, avoiding the escaping steam, and press and hold the ON/OFF button; the machine will switch off with a long beep. Switch the machine back on using the ON/OFF button and select the new wash cycle and any options desired; start the cycle by closing the door. Adding extra crockery Without switching off the machine, open the door, taking care to avoid the escaping steam, and place the crockery inside the dishwasher. Close the door: the cycle starts from the point at which it was interrupted. Accidental interruptions If the door is opened during the wash cycle, or if there is a power cut, the cycle stops. It starts again from the point at which it was interrupted once the door has been shut or once the electricity supply is restored. Measuring out the detergent A good wash result also depends on the correct amount of detergent being used; exceeding the stated amount does not result in a more effective wash and increases environmental pollution. Only use detergent which has been specifically designed for dishwashers. DO NOT USE washing up liquid. Using excessive detergent may result in foam residue remaining in the machine after the cycle has ended. The use of tablets is only recommended for models which offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option. To achieve the best results from each washing and drying cycle, powder detergent, rinse aid liquid and salt should be used. Compartment A: Washing detergentCompartment B: Pre-wash detergent1. Open cover C by pressing button 2. Pour in the detergent after consulting the Table of wash cycles:• For powder detergent usecompartments A and B.•Fordetergentintabletform:whenthe cycle requires 1 tablet, place it in compartment A and close the cover; when it requires 2, place the second tablet at the bottom of the appliance.3. Remove detergent residues from the edges of the compartment and close the cover until it clicks.

Multi-functional tablets* This option optimises washing and drying results. When using multi-functional tablets, press the MULTI- FUNCTIONAL TABLETS button. The corresponding indicator light will illuminate. The “Multi-functional tablets” option results in the lengthening of the wash cycle. The MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option remains set for subsequent wash cycles if it is not deselected. The use of tablets is only recommended for models which offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option. This option is not recommended for use with wash cycles which do not specify the use of multi-functional tablets.

• Only available in selected models. Wash options If an option is not compatible with the selected was cycle (see Table of wash cycles), the corresponding LED flashes rapidly 3 times and 2 short beeps will sound. Delayed start It is possible to delay the start time of the cycle by 3, 6 or 9 hours.

1. Press the DELAYED START button: every time it is pressed

a buzzer sounds and the selected period of time is displayed.

2. Select the wash cycle and shut the door: after the beep sounds,

the timer begins counting down.

3. Once this time has elapsed, the indicator light switches off

and the wash cycle begins. To adjust the delay time and select a smaller period of time, press the DELAYED START button. To cancel it, press the button repeatedly until the selected delayed start indicator light switches off. The wash cycle will start automatically as soon as the door is shut. Half load using the upper or lower rack* If there are not many dishes to be washed, a half load cycle may be used in order to save water, electricity and detergent. Select the wash cycle and press the HALF LOAD button repeatedly: the triangle corresponding to the selected load will illuminate and the wash cycle will take place only using the upper or the lower rack. The Half load option is not compatible with the Rapid, cycle. Remember to load the upper or lower rack only, and to reduce the amount of detergent accordingly.

Rinse aid and refined salt Only use products which have been specifically designed for dishwashers. Do not use table salt or industrial salt, or washing up liquid. Follow the instructions given on the packaging. If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add rinse aid; however, we recommend that you add salt, especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or very hard. Follow the instructions given on the packaging. If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and LOW RINSE AID

• indicator lights remain lit. Measuring out the rinse aid Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water runs off surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave streaks or marks.The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:•WhentheLOWRINSEAID* indicator light on the controlpanel is illuminated;1. Open the dispenser by turning the lid (G) in an anticlockwise direction.2. Pour in the rinse aid, making sure it does not overflow from the dispenser. If this happens, clean the spill immediately with a dry cloth.3. Screw the lid back on.NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub. Adjusting the amount of rinse aid If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, you may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a screwdriver to turn the dosage adjuster (F) to one of the 6 pre-set positions (the default position is set to 4):•Iftherearestreaksonthecrockery,settheadjustmentdeviceto a lower number (1-3).•Ifdropsofwaterremainonthecrockeryoriftherearelimescalemarks present after the cycle has finished, set the adjuster to a higher number (4-6). Setting the water hardness Every dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which, by using refined salt designed especially for this type of appliance, supplies water without limescale which is then used to wash the crockery. This dishwasher offers a setting which helps to reduce pollution and optimises washing performance in accordance with the wa-ter hardness level in your area. This information can be obtained from the organisation which supplies your household with water.- Open the door and switch on the machine by pressing the ON/OFF button. - Press the P button and hold for approximately 5 seconds; two short beeps will sound and the set hardness number will flash slowly on the display (the water softening system is set to number 3). - Press the P button repeatedly until the desired hardness level has been reached (1-2-3-4-5* see Water hardness table).- To exit the function, wait a few seconds or press one of the op-tion buttons *, or switch off the machine using the ON/OFF button. Even if using multi-functional tablets, the salt dispenser should still be filled.(°dH = hardness measured in German degrees - °f = hardness measured in French degrees - mmol/l = millimoles per litre) Measuring out the refined salt In order to achieve the best possible results using a wash cycle, make sure that the dispenser is never empty. Refined salt removes limescale from the water, thus avoiding the formation of deposits on crockery. The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the dishwasher (see Description) and should be filled:•Whenthegreenfloat* cannot be seen by simply looking at the cap of the salt dispenser.•WhentheLOWSALT* indicator light on the control panel is illuminated;1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the container cap (anticlockwise).2. The first time you do this: fill the water tank right up to its edge.3. Position the funnel* (see figure) and fill the salt container right up to its edge (this should hold approximately 1 kg); it is not unusual for a little water to leak out.4. Remove the funnel
• and wipe any salt residue away from the opening; rinse the cap under running water and then screw it on, the head facing downwards so as to let the water flow out of the four cracks which are arranged in a star shape on the lower part of the cap. (Salt cap with green float It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you add salt to the container. Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can get into the container during the wash cycle (this could damage the water softener beyond repair).When necessary, measure out the salt before a wash cycle so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the salt dispenser is removed.
• Only available in selected models.

avoid moisture from forming and being trapped inside the machine.

dispensers regularly using a damp sponge. This will avoid food becoming trapped in the seals, which is the main cause behind the formation of unpleasant odours. Cleaning the sprayer arms Food residue may become encrusted onto the sprayer arms and block the holes used to spray the water. It is therefore recommended that the arms are checked from time to time and cleaned with a small non-metallic brush. The two sprayer arms may both be removed. To remove the upper sprayer arm, rotate the locking ring in an anti-clockwise direction. The upper sprayer arm should be replaced with the holes facing upwards. The lower sprayer arm may be removed by pulling it upwards. Cleaning the water inlet filter* If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of impurities before performing the necessary connections. If this precaution is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked and damage the dishwasher.

• Only available in selected models. Clean the water inlet filter at the tap outlet regularly. - Turn off the water tap. - Unscrew the end of the water inlet hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under running water. - Replace the filter and screw the water hose back into position. Cleaning the filters The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food residues from the washing water and then recirculate the water. They should be cleaned if you wish to achieve the best results in every wash. Clean the filters regularly. The dishwasher should not be used without filters, or if the filter is loose.

• After several washes, check the filter assembly and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-metallic brush and following the instructions below:

1. Turn the cylindrical filter C in an anti-clockwise direction

and pull it out (fig. 1).

2. Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on

the side flaps (fig. 2).

3. Slide out the stainless steel plate filter A (fig. 3).

4.Inspect the trap and remove any food residue. NEVER REMOVE the wash cycle pump (black detail) (fig. 4). After cleaning the filters, replace the filter assembly and fix it in position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient operation of the dishwasher.
