Washing Program Selector: Press the button to select wash cycles.

• The installation position of dishwasher should be near the existing inlet and drain hoses and power cord.

• One side of the cabinet sink should be chosen to facilitate the connection of drain hoses of the dishwasher. Positioning the Appliance Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate proper installation. Power Cennection Ensure the voltage and frequency of the power being corresponds to those on the rating plate. Only insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug , replace the socket, rather than using a adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.24 Watter Supply Hose The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets. The old hose-sets should not be reused. Water pressure must be between 0,04 MPa and 1 MPa. If the pressure is below the minimum consult our Service Department for advice.

• Connection: Pull The safety supply hoses completely out from storage com- partment located at rear of dishwasher. Turn water fully on before starting the dishwasher. Tighter the screws of the safety supply hose to the faucet with thread 3/4inch.

• Disconnection: Turn off the water. Unscrew The safety supply 2 hose from the faucet. IMPORTANT: Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (inch) connector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place. If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the appliance. Drain Hose Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 40 mm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. The top of the ho se must be less than 1000 mm. Use the special plastic support that comes with the appliance. The free end of the hose must be at a height lower than 75cm and must not be immersed in water to avoid the back flow of it. IMPORTANT: The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill outside the drain.25 Drain Excess Water If the sink is 1000 higher from the floor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable container that is held outside and lower than the sink. Extension Hose If you need a drain hose extension, observe to use a similar drain hose. It must be no longer than 4 metres; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be reduced. Start of dishwasher The following things should be checked before starting the dishwasher:

• The dishwasher is level and fixed properly.

• The inlet valve is open.

• The wires are tightly connected.

• The power is switched on.

• The inlet and drain hoses are knotted.

• All packing materials and printings should be taken out from the dishwasher. Before first Use Loading the Salt into the Softener

• 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. in case of damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any caused damages.

• Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been split, remaining of the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.26

• Remove the basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.

• Before first wash, add 1 lt. of water in the salt container of your machine.

• Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 1kg of salt.

• After filling the container , screw the cap tightly back clockwise.

• Usually, the salt warning light will be cease to be illuminated within 2-6 days after the salt container has been filled with salt. Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing programme should be started Otherwise filter system, pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged by salty water. It is out of warranty. NOTE: The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on. De- pending on how fully the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the salt container is filled. If there are spills of the salt, a soak or a rapid program should be run to remove the excess salt. Adjusting Salt Consumption Step 1: Enter the status of salt adjustment Close the door, within 60 seconds after power on, press Start/Pause button and hold for 5 seconds, the machine will enter setting mode. Step 2: select a certain level of salt consumption Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply. Press the Start/pause button to select the proper set according to your local environment, the sets will change in the following se- quence: H1 > H2 > H3 > H4 > H5 > H6. Step 3: Exit the status of salt adjustment Without any operation in five seconds, the machine will exit from set mode, the machine is into standby status.

That can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to sheet off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dis- penser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid container is about 110ml. Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance. Refill Rinse Aid Dispenser If there is no rinse-aid warning light in the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the color of the optical level indicator located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole indicator will be dark .As the rinse-aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1/4 full.

1. To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the „open“ (left) arrow and lift it out.

2. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.

3. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with „open“ arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

Clean up any rinse aid split during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excessive foaming during the next wash. Don‘t forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.28 Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always start with the dispenser set on „4“. If spots and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dis- pensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to „5“. If the dishes still are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free. The recommended setting is „4“. (Factory value is „4“.) Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades. Function of Detergents Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out of the dishwasher. Most of commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose. Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. The water softener function of phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate were used in case of hard water often white spots appear at dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not removed completely. In this case please choose a programme with higher Temperature. Concentrated Detergents Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher can be split in two basic types:

• conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components

• low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes Detergent Tablets Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets can- not dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please use long pro- grammes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals. NOTE: Detergent tablets are only for the models with 3 in 1 function or 3 in 1 program. Detergent Dispenser The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the Wash Cycle Table . Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid then conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. Also, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.29 Refilling the Detergent Dispenser: If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid springs open. Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle. Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Fill in Detergent

• A = The place of main wash cycle detergent placed.

• B = The place of pre-wash cycle detergent placed.

• Please observe the manufacturers dosing and storage. Recom- mendations as stated on the detergent packaging.

• Close the lid and press until it locks in place.

• If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent dose in the pre-wash detergent chamber. This detergent will take effect during the pre-wash phase. NOTE: You find information about the amount of detergent for the single programme on the last page. Please aware, that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of water differences are possible. Please observe the manufacturer‘s recommendations on the detergent packaging. Loading the Dishwasher

• Consider buying utensils which are identified as dishwasher-proof.

• Use a mild detergent that is described as ‚kind of dishes‘. If necessary, seek further information from deter- gent manufacturers.

avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to break. They will also dry better.Unload the appliance, starting from the lower basket.35 Cleaning and Care Filtering System The filter prevent larger remnants of food or other objects from getting inside the pump. The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a flat (Main filter) and a micro filter (fine filter). Coarse filter (C) Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that could block the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To remove the items caught by the filter, gently squeeze the tap on the top of this fil- ter and lift out. Fine filter (B): This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being deposited on the dishes during wash cycle. Main filter (A): Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are pulverized by a special jet on the spray arm and washed down to drain. Filter assembly The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be re-cyclated during the cycle. For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be regularly cleaned. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapping in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull on the cup handle in the upward direction.

WARNING: The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may

reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.

1. Turn the coarse filter (C) counterclockwise and remove it.

2. Disassamble the filter system.

3. After cleaning put the filters back in the shown order.

Important Hints on Cleaning the Filter System

• To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush.

• When cleaning the filters, don‘t knock on them. Otherwise, the filters could be contorted and the perfor- mance of dishwasher could be debased.36 Caring for the Dishwasher

• The control panel can be cleaned by using a lightly dampened cloth and dry thoroughly.

• The exterior use a good appliance polish wax.

• Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

• To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm,

• damp cloth. To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind. Protect against Freezing please take frost protection measures on dishwasher in winter. Each time after washing cycles, please operate as follows:

1. Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.

2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.

3. Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)

4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.

5. Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to use up water in sump.

Cleaning the Spray Arms It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings. To remove the upper spray arm, hold the nut, rotate the arm clockwise to remove it. To remove the lower spray arm, pull out the spray arm upward. Wash the arms in soapy and warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing them thoroughly. How to keep your Dishwasher in Shape

• After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly open so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

• Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.

• To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water with a little vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

• It is recommend that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the

• socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly open. This will help the door

• seals to ast longer and prevent odours from forming within the appliance.

• If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be

• positioned on its back.

• One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals.

• Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.37 Troubleshooting Problem Possible Causes What to do Dishwasher doesn‘t start. Fuse blown, or the circuit brea- ker tripped. Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker. Remove any other appliances sharing the same circuit with the dishwasher. Power supply is not turned on. Make sure the dishwasher is turned on and the door is closed securely. Make sure the power cord is pro- perly plugged into the wall socket. Door of dishwasher not properly closed. Closed dishwasher making sure that door latches. Water not pumped from dishwasher. Kink in drain hose. Check drain hose. Filter clogged. Check coarse filter. Kitchen sink clogged. Check kitchen sink to make sure it is draining well. If problem is kitchen sink not draining ,you may need a plumber rather than a serviceman for dish- washer. Suds in the tub. Improper detergent Use only the special dishwasher detergent to avoid suds. If this occurs, open the dishwasher and let suds evaporate. Add 1 gallon of cold water to the tub. Close and latch the dishwasher, then Start any wash cycle to drain out the water . Repeat if ne- cessary. Spilled rinse-aid Always wipe up rinse-aid spills immediately. Stained tub interior. Detergent with colourant was used. Make sure that the detergent is the one without colourant. White film on inside surface. Hard water minerals. To clean the interior, use a damp sponge with dish- washer detergent and wear rubber gloves. Never use any other cleaner than dishwasher detergent for the risk of foaming or suds. There are rust stains on cutlery. The affected items are not corrosion resistant. Don‘t wash corrosive items in the dishwasher. A programme was not run after dishwasher salt was added. Traces of salt have got into the wash cycle. Always run the Quick wash programme, without any crockery in the dishwasher and without selec- ting the Turbo function (if present), after adding dishwasher salt. The lid of softer is loose. Check the lip .Ensure the fix is fine.38 knocking noise in the wash cabinet. The sp ay arm is knocking against an item in a basket. Interrupt the programme, and rearrange the items which are obstructing the spray arm. Rattling noise in the wash cabinet. Item of crockery are insecure in the wash cabinet. Interrupt the programme, and rearrange the items of crockery. knocking noise in the water pipe. This may be caused by on-site installation or the cross-section of the piping. This has no influence on dishwasher function. If in doubt, contact a suitably qualified plumber. The dishes are not clean. Dishes were‘nt loaded correctly. See notes in „Loading the Dishwasher Baskets“. The programme was not pow- erful enough. Select a more intensive programme. See “Wash Cycle Table“. Not enough detergent dispensed. Use more detergent, or change your detergent. Item are blocking spray arms. Rearrange items so that the spray can rotate freely. The filter combination is not clean or is not correctly fitted or spay arm jets are blocked. Clean and/or fit the filter combination correctly. Clean the sp ay arm jets. See „Cleaning the Spray Arms“. Cloudiness on glass- ware. Combination of soft water and too much detergent. Use less detergent if you have soft water and select a shortest cycle to wash the glassware and to get them clean. Black or gray marks on dishes. Aluminum utensils have rub- bed against dishes. Use a mild abrasive cleaner to eliminate those marks. Detergent left in dispenser cups. Dishes block detergent cups. Re-loading the dishes properly. The dishes are not drying. Improper loading Load the dishwasher as suggested in the directions. Too little rinse-aid Increase the amount of rinse-aid/Refill the rinse- aid Increase the amount of rinse-aid/Refill the rinse-aid dispenser. Dishes are removed too soon. Do not empty your dishwasher immediately after washing. Open the door slightly so that the steam can escape. Begin unloading the dishwasher only once the dishes are barely warm to the touch. Em- pty the low basket first. This prevents water form dropping off dishes in the upper basket. Wrong programme selection In short programmes the washing temperature is lower. This also lowers cleaning performance. Choose a programme with a long washing time. Using cutlery with a low- quality coating Water drainage is more difficult with these items. Cutlery or dishes of this type are not suitable for washing in the dishwasher.39 Error Codes When some malfunctions come on, the appliance will display error codes to warn you: Code Meanings Possible Cause E1 Longer inlet time. Faucets is not opened, or water intake is restricted,or water pres- sure is too low. E4 Overflow. Some element of dishwasher leaks. If overflow occurs, turn off the main water supply before calling a service. If there is water in the base pan because of an overfill or small leak, the water should be removed before restarting the dishwasher.
