Positioning and levelling 1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and checkthat it has not been damaged during transportation.If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do notproceed any further with the installation process.2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides orback panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets oreven with the wall. This appliance can also be recessedunder a single worktop * (

see the Assembly instruction

). 3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. Ifthe floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may beadjusted until it reaches a horizontal position. If theappliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable andmuch less likely to move or cause vibrations and noisewhile it is operating.4. Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of theappliance * on the central lower part of the dishwasher, turning a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of 8 mm in aclockwise direction to increase the height or in ananticlockwise direction to decrease the height. Connecting the water and electricity

supplies Connection to the water and electricity suppliesshould only be performed by a qualified technician.The dishwasher should not stand on top of the waterhoses or the electricity supply cable.The appliance must be connected to the watersupply network using new hoses.Do not use old hoses.The water inlet and outlet hoses and the electricitysupply cable may be positioned towards the right or theleft in order to achieve the best possible installation. Connecting the water inlet hose • To a suitable cold water connection point: beforeattaching the hose, run the water until it is perfectlyclear so that any impurities that may be present in thewater do not clog the appliance; after performing thisoperation, screw the inlet hose tightly onto a tap witha ¾ gas threaded connection.• To a suitable hot water connection point: yourdishwasher may be supplied with hot water from themains supply (if you have a central heating systemwith radiators) provided that it does not exceed atemperature of 60°C.Screw the hose to the tap as described for connectionto a cold water supply.If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact aspecialist store or an authorised technician ( see

). The water pressure must be within the valuesindicated in the Technical data table ( see adjacent

). The hose should not be bent or compressed. Connecting the water outlet hose Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drainduct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm.The outlet hose must be at a height ranging from 40 to80 cm from the floor / surface where the dishwasherrests (A).Before connecting the water outlet hose to the sinkdrain, remove the plastic plug (B).EN

Anti-flooding protection To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:- is provided with a special system which blocks thewater supply in the event of anomalies or leaks frominside the appliance.Some models are also equipped with the supplementarysafety device New Acqua Stop

*, which guarantees anti- flooding protection even in the event of a supply hoserupture. WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE! Under no circumstance should the water inlet hose becut as it contains live electrical parts. Electrical connection Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, makesure that:• The socket is earthed and complies with currentregulations.• The socket can withstand the maximum load of theappliance, which is indicated on the data platelocated on the inside of the door ( see chapter entitled

Description of the appliance

). • The power supply voltage falls within the valuesindicated on the data plate on the inside of the door.• The socket is compatible with the plug of theappliance. If this is not the case, ask an authorisedtechnician to replace the plug ( see Assistance ); donot use extension cables or multiple sockets.Once the appliance has been installed, the powersupply cable and the electrical socket should be easilyaccessible.The cable should not be bent or compressed. If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be re-placed by the manufacturer or its Technical AssistanceService in order to prevent all potential hazards. (See As-sistance)The Company shall not be held responsible for anyincidents that occur if these regulations are not observed. Anti-condensation strip* After installing the dishwasher, open the door and stickthe adhesive transparent strip under the wooden shelf inorder to protect it from any condensation which may form. Advice regarding the first wash cycle After the appliance has been installed, immediatelybefore running the first wash cycle, completely fill the saltdispenser with water and add only then approximately 1kg of salt ( see chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt

). The water may overflow: this is normal and is not a causefor concern. Select the water hardness value ( see

chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt ). - After the salthas been poured into the machine, the LOW SALTindicator light* switches off. If the salt container is not filled, the water softener andthe heating element may be damaged as a result.Technical data Dimensions width 59.5 cm height 82 cm depth 57 cm Capacity 12 standard place-settings Water supply pressure 0,05 ÷ 1MPa (0.5 ÷ 10 bar) 7,25 – 145 psi Power supply voltage See appliance data plate Total absorbed power See appliance data plate Fuse See appliance data plate

Silver that is not antique may, however, bewashed in the dishwasher using a delicate wash cycle,provided that it does not come into contact with othermetals. We recommend the use of crockery which is dishwashersafe.EN

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

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 pressingbutton D.2. Pour in the detergent afterconsulting the Table of wash

: • For powder detergent usecompartments A and B.• For detergent in tablet form:when the cycle requires 1 tablet,place it in compartment A and close the cover; when itrequires 2, place the second tablet at the bottom of theappliance.3. Remove detergent residues from the edges of thecompartment and close the cover until it clicks. * Only available in selected models.

Starting the dishwasher 1. Turn the water tap on.2. Open the door and press the ON/OFF button: you willhear a short beep and the ON/OFF and wash cycleindicator lights switch on for a few seconds.3. Measure out the detergent ( see below

). 4. Load the racks ( see chapter entitled Loading the

). 5. Select the wash cycle in accordance with the type ofcrockery and its soil level ( see Table of wash cycles ), bypressing the SELECT WASH CYCLE button; the indicatorlight corresponding to the selected wash cycle willswitch on.7. Start the wash cycle by shutting the door: after a fewseconds have passed, a long beep signals the start ofthe wash cycle.8. Two short beeps and one long one indicate the end ofthe wash cycle and the indicator light corresponding tothe wash cycle flashes slowly. Open the door, switch offthe appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button, shut offthe water tap and unplug the appliance from theelectricity socket.9. Wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery,in order to avoid burns. Unload the racks, beginning withthe lower level. - The machine will switch off automatically

during certain periods of inactivity, in order to

minimise electricity consumption.

Modifying a wash cycle in progress If a mistake was made during the wash cycle selectionprocess it is possible to change the cycle, provided that ithas only just begun: open the door, taking care to avoid theescaping steam, and press and hold the ON/OFF button;the machine will switch off with a long beep. Switch themachine back on using the ON/OFF button and select thenew wash cycle using the SELECT WASH CYCLE button;start the cycle by closing the door. Adding extra crockery Without switching off the machine, open the door, takingcare to avoid the escaping steam, and place thecrockery inside the dishwasher. Close the door: thecycle starts from the point at which it was interrupted. Accidental interruptions If the door is opened during the wash cycle, or if there isa power cut, the cycle stops. It starts again from the pointat which it was interrupted once the door has been shutor the electricity supply is restored.EN

* The Eco wash cycle adheres to the regulation EN-50242. Although it has a longer duration than other wash

cycles it uses less energy and is les harmful to the environment.

Note for Test Laboratories

: for detailed information relating to comparative EN testing conditions, please send

an email to the following address: ASSISTENZA_EN_LVS@indesitcompany.com

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.

The number and type of wash cycles and options may vary depending on the dishwasher model.

To make it easier to measure out the detergent, it is worth remembering that:

1 tablespoon = 15 grams of powder = approximately 15 ml of liquid

1 teaspoon = 5 grams of powder = approximately 5 ml of liquid

Rinse aid and refined salt

Only use products which have been

specifically designed for dishwashers.

Do not use table salt or industrial salt, or

Follow the instructions given on the packaging. If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary toadd rinse aid; however, we recommend that you add salt,especially if you live in an area where the water is hardor very hard. Follow the instructions given on thepackaging.

If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT

* and LOW RINSE AID* indicator lights

Measuring out the rinse aid Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as waterruns off surfaces more readily and therefore does not leavestreaks or marks.The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:• When the LOW RINSE AID * indicator light on the control panel is illuminated;1. Open the dispenser by turning thelid (G) in an anticlockwise direction.2. Pour in the rinse aid, making sure itdoes not overflow from thedispenser. If this happens, clean thespill immediately with a dry cloth.3. Screw the lid back on.NEVER pour the rinse aid directlyinto the appliance tub. Adjusting the amount of rinse aid If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, youmay adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a screwdriverto turn the dosage adjuster (F) to one of the 6 pre-setpositions (the default position is set to 4):• If there are streaks on the crockery, set the adjustmentdevice to a lower number (1-3).• If drops of water remain on the crockery or if there arelimescale marks present after the cycle has finished, set theadjuster to a higher number (4-6). Setting the water hardness Every dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which, byusing refined salt designed especially for this type ofappliance, supplies water without limescale which is then usedto wash the crockery.This dishwasher offers a setting which helps to reducepollution and optimises washing performance in accordancewith the water hardness level in your area. This information canbe obtained from the organisation which supplies yourhousehold with water.- Open the door and switch on the machine by pressing theON/OFF button. - Press the P button and hold for approximately 5 seconds;two short beeps will sound and the indicator lightcorresponding to the set degree of hardness will flash slowly on the display (the water softening system is set to number 2). - Press the P button repeatedly until the desired hardnesslevel has been reached (1-2-3-4-5 * see Water hardnesstable ). E.g. hardness 1 (indicator light 1 flashing)hardness 2 (indicator light 1 illuminated, indicator light 2flashing).hardness 3 (indicator lights 1 and 2 illuminated, indicator light3 flashing and so on). up to a maximum 5 * levels. - To exit the function, wait a few seconds or press one of theoption buttons *, or switch off the machine using the ON/OFF button.Even if using multi-functional tablets, the salt dispenser shouldstill be filled.(°dH = hardness measured in German degrees - °f =hardness measured in French degrees - mmol/l = millimolesper litre) Measuring out the refined salt In order to achieve the best possible results using a washcycle, make sure that the dispenser is never empty. Refinedsalt removes limescale from the water, thus avoiding theformation of deposits on crockery.The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of thedishwasher (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 thecontainer cap (anticlockwise).2. The first time you do this: fill the water tankright up to its edge.3. Position the funnel * ( see figure) and fill the salt containerright up to its edge (this should hold approximately 1 kg); it isnot 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 thenscrew it on, the head facing downwards so as to let the waterflow out of the four cracks which are arranged in a star shapeon the lower part of the cap. (Salt cap with green float *) It is advisable to perform this procedure every time youadd salt to the container.Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergentcan get into the container during the wash cycle (this coulddamage the water softener beyond repair).When necessary, measure out the salt before a washcycle so that any saline solution which has leaked out of thesalt dispenser is removed. * Only available in selected models.

Preventing unpleasant odours • Always keep the door of the appliance ajar in order toavoid moisture from forming and being trapped insidethe machine.• Clean the seals around the door and detergentdispensers regularly using a damp sponge. This willavoid food becoming trapped in the seals, which isthe main cause behind the formation of unpleasantodours. Cleaning the sprayer arms Food residue may become encrusted onto the sprayerarms and block the holes used to spray the water. It istherefore recommended that the arms are checked fromtime to time and cleaned with a small non-metallicbrush.The two sprayer arms may both be removed.To remove the upper sprayerarm, rotate the locking ring inan anti-clockwise direction.The upper sprayer arm shouldbe replaced with the holesfacing upwards.The lower sprayer arm can beremoved by pressing on theside tabs and pulling itupwards. Cleaning the water inlet filter* If the water hoses are new or have not been used for anextended period of time, let the water run to make sure itis clear and free of impurities before performing thenecessary connections. If this precaution is not taken,the water inlet could become blocked and damage thedishwasher.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 andclean it carefully under running water.- Replace the filter and screw the water hose back intoposition. Cleaning the filters The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove foodresidues from the washing water and then recirculate thewater. They should be cleaned if you wish to achieve the bestresults in every wash.Clean the filters regularly.The dishwasher should not be used without filters, or if thefilter is loose.After cleaning the filters, replace the filter assembly and fix it inposition correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficientoperation of the dishwasher. Leaving the machine unused for extended

periods • Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply andshut off the water tap.• Leave the door of the appliance ajar.• When you return, run a wash cycle when the dishwasher isempty.• After several washes, check the filter assembly and ifnecessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using anon-metallic brush and following the instructions below: 1.1.

1.1. 1. Turn the cylindrical filter C in an anti-clockwise directionand pull it out (fig. 1). 2.2.

The crossed-out dustbin is marked on allproducts to remind the owner of their obligationsregarding separated waste collection.For further information relating to the correct disposalof household appliances, owners may contact therelevant public authority or the local appliancedealer. Saving energy and respecting the

Saving water and energy • Only begin a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full.While waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, preventunpleasant odours using the Soak cycle ( see Wash

). • Select a wash cycle which is suited to the type ofcrockery and to the soil level of the crockery using the Table of wash cycles

: - For dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco washcycle, which guarantees low energy and waterconsumption levels.- If the load is smaller than usual activate the Half loadoption * (

see Start-up and use

). • If your electricity supply contract gives details ofelectricity saving time bands, run wash cycles duringthe periods when a lower tariff is applied. TheDelayed start * button (

see Start-up and use ) helpsyou organise the wash cycles accordingly. Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents

containing enzymes • We strongly recommend that you use detergents thatdo not contain phosphates or chlorine, as theseproducts are harmful to the environment.• Enzymes provide a particularly effective action attemperatures around 50°C, and as a result detergentscontaining enzymes can be used in conjunction withlow-temperature wash cycles in order to achieve thesame results as a normal 65°C wash cycle.• To avoid wasting detergent, use the product inappropriate quantities based on the manufacturer’srecommendations, the hardness of the water and thesoil level and quantity of crockery to be washed. Evenif they are biodegradable, detergents containsubstances which may alter the balance of nature. * Only available in selected models.EN
