Installation instructions
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain.

Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person. Any plumbing work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified plumber or competent person.
Water supply connections
Your dishwasher can be connected to either a cold or hot water supply of max. 60°C.
Never connect your dishwasher to open hot appliances and continuous flow heaters!
Nevertheless we advise you a cold water supply. A hot water supply is not always efficient with very soiled crockery as it shortens the washing programmes.
Avoid bends or kinks in the hose which could prevent or slow down the water supply.
If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. This will prevent deposits of sand or rust clogging the inlet hose filter.
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the technical specifications.
Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average mains pressure in your area.
Your dishwasher has been built in accordance with the valid regulations governing water-consuming appliances and is equipped with safety devices which prevent used water from flowing back into the drinking water mains.
Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been used in another appliance.
Protection against flooding
The machine is fitted with a device in the bottom of the machine to protect against flooding. The device will operate if there are any water leaks in the machine, however it will only operate if the machine is on.
In case of interventio a fault code will appear on the control panel. The fault is recognised by the fact that the indicator light of the programme "Normal 65°" is flashing.
In this case turn off the water tap and call the Service Force Centre.
Water outlet hose connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following ways:
- To the sink outlet spigot, securing it if necessary with a clip.
- To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal diameter 4 cm.
The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the dishwasher.
The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water.
If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2 metres and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.
Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the diameter of the hose provided.
The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is draining as this could cause the water to siphon back into the machine.

Before plugging the appliance into the wall socket, make sure that:
- The mains voltage corresponds to the voltage given in the "Technical specifications".
- The meter, fuses, mains power supply and wall socket can all take the maximum load required. Make sure that the socket and plug are compatible without having to use any type of adaptor. If necessary, have the domestic wiring system socket replaced.

Safety standards require the appliance to be earthed.
The manufacture accepts no liability for failure to observe the above safety precautions.

This appliance complies with the following E.E.C. Directives:
- 73/23 of 19.2.73 (Low Voltage Directive) and subsequent modifications;
- 89/336 of 3.5.89 (Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive) and subsequent modifications.
Before use
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
- Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instructions
- Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
- Set the water softener
- Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with salt
- Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
Setting the water softener
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German degrees, French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.
The dishwasher is factory set at level 3.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be adjusted.
You may change the factory level setting by means of the wash programme selector push buttons. each button corresponds to a different level.

If your water is level 1 it is already soft and therefore there is no need to use salt. With the setting of the water softener at level 1 the salt indicator light on the control panel will always remain off.
To set a different level proceed as follows:
-
Press "Intensive 70°" and "BIO 50°" programme push buttons simultaneously for about 5 seconds. The indicator light corresponding to the current level flashes.
-
Press within 5 seconds the programme push button corresponding to the required level. After 5 seconds the dishwasher will memorise the new level setting and will return to programme setting mode.
The setting will remain memorised after switching off the dishwasher.
| Level | Water hardness | Use of salt | ||
| German degrees | French degrees (°TH) | PPM (Parts per Million) | ||
| 1 | 0 - 4 | 0 - 8 | 0 - 80 | NO |
| 2 | 5 - 11 | 9 - 20 | 81 - 200 | YES |
| 3 | 12 - 22 | 21 - 40 | 201 - 400 | YES |
| 4 | 23 - 39 | 41 - 70 | 401 - 700 | YES |
| 5 | 40 - 50 | 71 - 90 | 701 - 900 | YES |
| Level 1 = programme push button "Rinse and Hold" | ###* |
| Level 2 = programme push button "Intensive 70°" | ###70° |
| Level 3 = programme push button "Normal 65°" | ###65° |

70° 65° BIO 50° 50° SO411Filling with salt

Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes (not the "Rinse and Hold" programme).
This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
- To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container.
- Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time).
- Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the container is full.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal. - Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.
- Screw on the cap tightly.
The salt container will require topping up periodically.
You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel which comes on when the salt has finished.

The salt indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has been replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains switched on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then this can take longer. The function of the machine is not affected.

SALE SALT SALT SEL SR06Rinse aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing programmes, depending upon the dosage setting.
Filling with rinse aid
- Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.
- Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The indicator (B) will be completely dark.
- Top up the rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light on the control panel illuminates.
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Do not put liquid detergent in the rinse aid compartment. Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.
Adjusting the dose
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (C) (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.

C BR02Use of detergent

Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
If using powder detergents proceed as follows:
- Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D).
- Add the detergent according to the recommended quantity given in the "Washing programmes" chart. As all detergents are not the same, you should consult the instructions from the manufacturer of your brand.
- Always close the lid.
- The programmes with prewash require a small amount of detergent to be poured over the lid of the dispenser. Follow the recommended quantity of detergent given in the "Washing programmes" chart.
If using detergent in tablets proceed as follows:
- For all programmes; place 1 tablet inside the detergent dispenser.
- Always close the lid.
- For all programmes with prewash; place a portion of a further tablet on the lid of the detergent dispenser.

Insufficient quantities of detergent will produce poor washing results, whereas an excessive amount of detergent will not improve washing results and is also wasteful.
Using no more than the correct amount also contributes to reducing pollution.
Compact detergents with enzymes
In these compact powders the environmentally unfriendly components have been replaced by natural enzymes and other more biodegradable substances.
The enzymes deploy their full dirt dissolving power at a temperature as low as 50^ C.
By choosing the "Bio 50°C" programmes you can therefore achieve the same cleaning results that would otherwise be achievable only with 65°C programmes and conventional detergents.

Line drawing of a hand using a tool to clean or inspect a device with a dial (no text or symbols visible)Hints and tips
To save energy
Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing.
If necessary run the "Rinse and Hold" programme (see "Washing programmes" chart) so that any food scraps do not become caked on the dishes while you are waiting to run the complete wash programme.
Do not prewash dishes under running water.
Select an economic programme when dishes are not very soiled, following the instructions given in the "Washing programmes" chart.
For best washing results
Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very heavily soiled pots and pans.
Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. upside-down.
Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the water drains off easily.
Avoid contact between the dishes as far as possible.
Items not suitable for dishwashers
The following items should not be washed in the dishwasher (unless they are sold as dishwasher proof):
- Cutlery with wooden or horn handles or glued parts
- bronze cutlery
- saucepans with wooden handles
- aluminium ware
- crystal ware
- leaded glass
- plastic items
- antique or fine decorated china
Certain types of decoration can discolour when washed in a dishwasher.
Crystal-ware and plastic objects, if not guaranteed dishwasher proof should be washed by hand.
Certain types of glass can also become opaque after being washed several times in a dishwasher.
A chemical reaction can occur between silver cutlery and stainless steel cutlery. As a precaution, do not wash together.
Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items.
Aluminium tends to go black, copper, pewter and brass tend to stain.

If in doubt check with manufacturer of the item.
When buying new dishes, ensure that they are dishwasher proof.
Maintenance and cleaning
Internal cleaning
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.
We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.
Cleaning the filters
The filters in the base of the washing compartment are to large extent self-cleaning. Nevertheless the filters should be checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will degrade the washing result.
- Open the door, remove the lower basket.
- The dishwasher filter system comprises a coarse/fine filter, microfilter and a flat filter. Unlock the filter system using a handle on the microfilter, and remove.
- Turn the handle about 14 a turn anticlockwise and remove.
- Take hold of the coarse/fine filter (1/2) by the handle with the hole and remove from the microfilter (3).
- Clean all filters thoroughly under running water.
- Remove the flat filter (4) from the base of the washing compartment and clean both faces thoroughly.
- Put the flat filter back in the base of the washing compartment.
- Place the coarse/fine filter in the microfilter and press together.
- Put the filter combination in place and lock by turning the handle clockwise to the stop. During this process ensure that the flat filter does not protrude above the base of the washing compartment.

The dishwasher must not be used without filters.
Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results. Cleaning the filters is vital to ensure correct operation of the machine.
External cleaning
Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).
Prolonged periods of non-operation
If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are advised to:
- Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.
- Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
- Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any unpleasant smells.
- Leave the inside of the machine clean.
Frost precautions
Avoid placing the machine in a location where the temperature is below 0^ C. If this is unavoidable, empty the machine, close the appliance door, disconnect the water inlet pipe and empty it.
Moving the machine
If you have to move the machine (moving house etc....):
- Unplug it.
- Turn the water tap off.
- Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.
- Pull the machine out together with the hoses.
Avoid over tilting the machine during transportation.
Something not working
Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out an engineer.
The dishwasher is fitted with a number of alarm systems which can help you to quickly determine the cause of any problems.
The dishwasher will not start or stops during operation, all push buttons are inoperative except for the On/Off push button. On the control panel one or more programme indicator lights are flashing and an audible signal will inform you of the alarm intervention.
Open the door and press the On/Off push button to switch off the dishwasher, carry out the following suggested corrective actions listed below.
Once the checks have been carried out switch on the dishwasher and start a washing programme, if the fault code reappears in the digital display, contact your local Service Force Centre.
