Frequently Asked Questions - TDW 45 SILVER THOMSON

Why does my Thomson TDW 45 SILVER dishwasher not start?

Check that the fuse or circuit breaker has not tripped, that the appliance is powered on, and that the door is properly closed. If the problem persists, refer to the troubleshooting guide on page 22.

What to do if water does not drain from the dishwasher?

Ensure the drain hose is not kinked, the filter is not clogged, and the kitchen sink drains properly. Clean the filters as indicated on page 20.

Why is there foam inside my dishwasher?

Only use special dishwasher detergent. If foam appears, open the door, let it evaporate, then run a rinse cycle. Avoid overfilling the rinse aid dispenser.

How to remove stains on interior surfaces or a white film?

For dye stains, check that the detergent does not contain dyes. For white film (limescale), clean the interior with a damp sponge and a little dishwasher detergent. Wear gloves.

Why is my dishwasher noisy during operation?

Noise may come from dishes knocking together or spray arms hitting objects. Rearrange the dishes following the loading instructions on pages 11-13.

What to do if dishes are not clean after a cycle?

Check the dish arrangement, the selected program (too mild), the amount of detergent, and the condition of filters and spray arms. Refer to the troubleshooting guide on page 22.

How to interpret error codes E1 and E4?

Code E1 indicates water intake takes too long: check the tap, pressure, and blockage. Code E4 signals overflow: turn off the water supply before calling a repair technician.

How to adjust the water softener on the TDW 45 SILVER?

Hold down the P button until 'H3' flashes, then press ▷II several times to choose the setting suitable for your water hardness (H1 to H6). Confirm with the P button.

What type of salt to use and when to add it?

Only use special dishwasher salt, never table salt. Add salt when the salt indicator light comes on. Pour about 1.5 kg into the reservoir before a wash cycle.

How to load the baskets for optimal washing?

Place the dirtiest items in the lower basket (pots, plates), and more delicate ones in the upper basket (glasses, cups). Orient hollows downward and do not block spray arms. See pages 11-13.

BEFORE INSTALLING YOUR DISHWASHER

Before connecng your dishwasher to the power supply, check that the voltage stated on the rang 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 locaons 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 potenal safety hazards.

Connecng to the Mains Water Supply

Inlet hose (Cold water supply)

Coiled white cable with connectors, no visible text or symbols

The water inlet hose from the machine terminates in a 3/4" female connector. The water supply should therefore terminate in a similar male connector and should have a stopcock close by in the pipe.

Line drawing of a hand holding a tool, no text or symbols present

Connect the straight connector of the inlet hose to the water supply securely ensuring that the washers are securely in place at both ends of the hose.

Water Pressure

For best operang results, incoming water pressure should be between 0.04 MPa and 1MPa. Incoming water supply for the dishwasher is controlled by a ‘pressure switch’, so if the household water pressure is low, dishwasher ll me will increase or may not operate.

WARNING: Please close the hydrant aer using.

Connecng to the water outlet

Insert the drain hose into a drainage pipe or standpipe.

The end of the hose should be dropped into a drainage pipe, the maximum height of which should be 1000 mm above the base of the dishwasher. The end of the hose must not be immersed in water to avoid the back ow of it.

To allow for an air gap around the end of the drain hose, the diameter of the standpipe should be at least 40 mm.

Downloaded from www.vandenborre.be Counter A B MAX 1000mm φ 40mm

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

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

Levelling

Place the dishwasher on an even, stable surface.

It is very important that the dishwasher is perfectly levelled in order to avoid the dishwasher to malfuncon. You can level the dishwasher by adjusng the base feet.

OPERATION

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 rotang spray arm, drained through a liter removing food and soiled parcles 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 mes depends on the cycle being used).

NOTE:

Hard water condions will adversely aect washability performance of your dishwasher. Hard water condions will also contribute to “Lime” (white lm substance) deposits and/or “Scaling” on the stainless steel surface of the dishwasher tub and heater element located in the sump underneath the removable lter screen.

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

General Warnings and Recommendations

Before using the dishwasher for the rst me, it is advisable to read the following recommendations concerning dish types to be washed and their loading.

Before loading the dishes into the baskets it is necessary to:

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

There is no need to pre-wash the dishes under running water before loading them into the basket.

WARNINGS:

• Make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that they cannot p over or obstruct the rotaon 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 cavies 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.

Items which are not dishwasher-safe:

• Wooden dishes, pots or pans
• Handcraed items
• Plasc dishes (except when marked dishwasher-safe)
• Dishes and objects in copper, n, zinc or brass
• Aluminium dishes
• Silverware
• Glass and crystal
• Decorated items

Loading the Baskets

Loading the upper and lower baskets

The upper basket is designed to hold delicate and light items such as glasses, cups, saucers, serving bowls and shallow pans.

The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the upper spray arm can turn freely.

Arrange items so that water can reach all surfaces.

The upper basket is equipped with two cup shelves.

For reduced loads, the additional cup shelves can be folded down if not required as shown below.

Using the Water Soener

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 soener which uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate the minerals from the water.

• Only use salt specially formulated for domesc dishwashers.
• Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which may damage the water soening system.
• Fill the salt container before starng the washing programme. In this way, the excess saline soluon will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank may lead to corrosion.

- If you plan to use dishwasher tablets for your washing needs, then you do not require to use salt or rinse agent but please note that the roll salt indicator light will remain illuminated on the control panel. This is quite normal and will not act the operaon of your dishwasher.
