Installation and Assistance

* Only available in selected models. 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. 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.Arrangethedishwashersothatitssidesorbackpanelareincontact with the adjacent cabinets or the wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single worktop* (see the Assembly

Instruction sheet.) 3. Position the dishwasher on a level sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance should 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*. To adjust the height of the rear foot, turn the red hexagonal bushing on the lower central part at the front of the dishwasher using a hexagonal spanner with an opening of 8 mm. Turn the spanner in a clockwise direction to increase the height and in an anticlockwise direction to decrease it (see Building-in Instruction

sheet attached to the documentation.)

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 the water hoses or electricity supply cable.The appliance must be connected to the water supply network using new hoses.Do not use old piping.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 • Toasuitablecoldwaterconnectionpoint:beforeattachingthe 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.• Toasuitablehotwaterconnectionpoint:yourdishwashermay 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 circumstances should the water inlet hose be cut, as it contains live electrical parts. Electrical connection Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, make sure that:• Thesocketisearthedandcomplieswithcurrentregulations.• thesocketcanwithstandthemaximumloadoftheappliance,which is indicated on the data plate located on the inside of the door

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

The use of tablets is only recommended for models

which offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option.

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

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:•WhentheLOWRINSEAID* 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.

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 water hardness level in your area. This information can be obtai-ned 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 indicator light corresponding to the set degree of hardness will flash slowly on the control panel (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).E.g.hardness1(indicatorlight1flashing)hardness 2 (indicator light 1 illuminated, indicator light 2flashing).hardness3(indicatorlights1and2illuminated,indicatorlight3 flashing and so on).- 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.

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:•Whenthegreenfloat* cannot be seen by simply looking at the cap of the salt dispenser.•WhentheLOWSALT* 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.

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.

• Cleanthesealsaroundthedooranddetergent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

The lower sprayer arm can 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.

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

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
