LOADING THE SALT

■ The appearance of white stains on dishes is generally a warning sign that the salt container needs filling.
■ On the bottom of the machine there is a container for the salt for regenerating the softener.
It is important to use only a salt that is specifically designed for dishwasher. Other types of salt contain small quantities of insoluble particles which over a long period of time may affect and deteriorate the softener performance.
■ To add salt, unscrew the cap of the container on the bottom and then refill the container.
■ During this operation a little water will overflow; but keep adding salt until the container is full. When the container is full, clean the thread of salt residue and retighten the tap.
■ After loading the salt, it is recommended running a complete washing cycle, or COLD RINSE programme. The salt

IMPORTANT

After loading the salt, YOU MUST run a complete washing cycle, or the PRE-WASH/COLD RINSE/REFRESH programme.

■ The salt dispenser has a capacity of between 1.5 and 1.8 kg and, for efficient use of the appliance, it should be refilled from time to time according to the regulation of the water softener unit.

IMPORTANT

(Only for first start up)

When the appliance is used for the first time, after completely filling the salt container, it is necessary to add water until the container overflows.

1. Pull out the upper basket;
2. Then grasp the basket from both sides and lift it upwards (fig. 1).

Dishes that are bigger than 20 cm in diameter can no longer be loaded onto the upper basket and the mobile supports cannot be used when the basket is in the upper position.

ADJUST BASKET TO THE LOWER POSITION:

1. Grasp the basket from both sides and lift slightly upwards (fig. 2a);
2. Then slowly release into the correct position (fig. 2b).

Attention : it is advisable to adjust the basket before loading the dishes.

■ It is advisable to load large plates (approx. 26 or more cm) slightly tilted towards the rear to facilitate introduction of the basket into the machine.
■ Salad bowls and plastic bowls may also be loaded on the upper basket. It is advisable to block these in place so that the jets of water do not make them overturn.
■ The upper basket has been designed to offer maximum flexibility in use and can be loaded with up to 24 plates on two rows, up to 30 glasses on five rows or a mixed load.

A standard daily load is represented in figs. 1, 2 and 3.

■ Place the cutlery in the plastic cutlery holder with the handles pointing upwards.
■ Place the cutlery holder on the lower basket (fig. 7 and 8), making sure that the cutlery does not get in the way of the rotating arms.
■ The lower basket is fitted with a special adjustable central rack (fig. 4 and 5). This permits stable and optimum loading, even when the size and/or shape of the dishes is non-standard.
- POSITION "A": for a standard load, or one that excludes pans, salad bowls and the like.

• POSITION "B": for dishes which, although standard size, have a particular shape (very deep bowls, square dishes or ones without borders etc.).
• POSITION "C": for larger than average flat plates and/or ones with non-standard shapes (square, hexagonal, oval, pizza dishes etc.).

Please load the dishwasher sensibly to ensure the best wash results.

IMPORTANT

The lower basket has a safety-stop device, for its safe extraction, also especially useful with a full load. For loading salt, cleaning filter and for ordinary maintenance, the complete extraction of the basket is necessary.

INFORMATION FOR THE TEST LABORATORIES

Please ask information required for comparison testing and measuring noise levels, according to EN normative, to the following address:

[e-mail]

In the request, please specify model name and number of the dishwasher (see rating plate).

LOADING THE DETERGENT

The detergent

IMPORTANT

It is essential to use a detergent that is specifically designed for dishwashers either in powder, liquid or tablet form.

"FINISH" gives very good results and can be easily obtained.

Unsuitable detergents (like those for washing up by hand) do not contain the proper ingredients for use in a dishwasher, and stop the dishwasher from working correctly.

Filling the detergent container

The detergent container is inside the door (fig. A "2"). If the lid of the container is closed, press the button (A) to open.

At the end of every wash cycle the lid is always open and ready for the next time the dishwasher is used.

WARNING!

When loading the lower basket, please ensure that the plates or others do not obstruct the detergent dispenser.

The amount of detergent to be used varies according to how dirty the dishes are and on the type of dishes to be washed.

We advise using 20÷30 g of detergent in the wash section of detergent compartment (B).

After pouring the detergent into the container, close the lid, firstly pushing (1) and then pressing on it (2) until you hear the click.

Diagram of a device with labeled parts and directional arrow, showing component 1 and component 2

Since not all detergents are the same the instructions on the boxes of detergent can vary. We should just like to remind users that too little detergent does not clean the dishes properly whilst too much detergent will not produce better results and is also a waste.

IMPORTANT

Do not use an excessive amount of detergent and help limit damage to the environment at the same time.

TYPES OF DETERGENT

Detergent tablets

Detergent tablets of different manufacturers dissolve at different speeds, for this reason, during short programmes, some detergent tablets may be not fully effective, because they are not completely dissolved. If these products are used, is recommended to choose longer programmes to guarantee the complete use of the detergent.

IMPORTANT

To get satisfactory washing results, the tablets MUST be placed in the wash section of the detergent container and NOT directly in the tub.

Concentrated detergents

The concentrated detergents, with reduced alkalinity and with natural enzymes, in conjunction with 50°C wash programmes, have a smaller impact on the environment and they protect the dishes and the dishwasher.

The 50^ C wash programmes purposely exploit the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes, allowing therefore, with the use of the concentrated detergents, to achieve the same results of the 65^ C programmes but at a lower temperature.

Combined detergents

The detergents that also contain the rinse aid must be placed in the wash section of the detergent container. The rinse aid container must be empty (if it is not empty, set the rinse aid regulator to lowest position before using combined detergents).

"ALL in 1" combined detergents

If you are planning to use "ALL in 1" ("3 in 1 "/4 in 1"/"5 in 1", etc.) combined detergents i.e. those with built in salt and/or rinse agent, we would advise the following:

- read carefully and follow the manufacturer's instructions given on the packaging;

■ the effectiveness of detergents containing the built in water softener/salt depends on the hardness of your water supply. Check that the hardness of your water supply is within the effective range given on the detergent packaging.

If when using this type of product, you don't get satisfactory washing results, please contact the detergent manufacturer.

In certain circumstances use of combined detergents can cause:

■ limescale deposits on dishes or in the dishwasher;
■ a reduction in washing and drying performance.

IMPORTANT

Any problems which arise as a direct result of the use of these products are not covered by our warranty.

Please note that using the "ALL in 1" combined detergents, the rinse aid and salt indicator lights (only used on selected models) are superfluous, so you must ignore the lights.

If washing and/or drying problems occur, we recommend you return to use traditional separate products (salt, detergent and rinse agent). This will ensure that the water softener in the dishwasher operates correctly.

In this case, we recommends that you:

■ refill both the salt and rinse aid container;
■ run one normal washing cycle without a load.

Please note that on return to the use of conventional salt, a number of cycles will be required before the system becomes fully efficient again.

LOADING THE RINSE AID

The rinse aid

The rinse aid, which is automatically released during the last rinsing cycle, helps the dishes to dry quickly and prevents spots and stains forming.

Filling the rinse aid container

The rinse aid container can be found to the left of the detergent container (fig. A "3"). To open the lid, push the reference mark and, in the same time, pull the tab of opening.

It is always advisable to use rinse aid that is specifically designed for dishwasher.

Check the rinse aid level through the indicator eye (C) which is located on the dispenser.

Regulating the rinse aid from 1 to 6

The regulator (D) is placed under the lid and can be turned using a coin.

The recommended position is 4.

The limestone content of the water considerably affects the formation of limescale and the drying performance.

It is therefore important to regulate the quantity of rinse aid to achieve good washing results.

If, after the wash, streaks occur on the dishes, decrease the amount by one position. If whitish spots occur, increase the amount by one position.

CLEANING THE FILTERS

The filter system (fig.A "4") consists of:

a central container that traps the larger particles;

a flat gauze that continuously filters the wash water;

a micro filter, located beneath the gauze, that traps the tiniest particles ensuring a perfect rinse.

■ To achieve excellent results every time, the filters should be checked and cleaned after each wash.
■ To remove the filter unit, simply turn the handle anticlockwise (fig. 1).
■ For ease of cleaning, the central container is removable (fig. 2).
■ Remove the gauze filter (fig.3) and wash the whole unit under a jet of water. If necessary a small brush can be used.
■ With the Self-cleaning Micro filter, maintenance is reduced and the filter unit need only be checked every two weeks. Nevertheless, after each wash it is advisable to check that the central container and the gauze filter are not clogged.

WARNING!

After cleaning the filters, make sure that they are correctly reassembled and that the gauze filter is properly positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher.

Make sure that the filter is screwed back, clockwise, into the gauze, as poor seating of the filter unit could have an adverse effect on the efficiency of the appliance.

IMPORTANT

Never use the dishwasher without the filters.

PRATICAL HINTS

How to get really good wash results

■ Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove any remaining food (bones, shells, pieces of meat or vegetables, coffee grounds, skin of fruit, cigarette ash, tooth picks etc. to avoid blocking the filters, water outlet and washing arm nozzles.
■ Try not to rinse the dishes before loading them into the dishwasher.
■ If saucepans and oven dishes are encrusted with the remains of burnt or roast food, it is advisable to leave them to soak before washing.
■ Place the dishes face downwards.
■ Try to place the dishes in such a way that they are not touching one another. If they are loaded properly you will get better results.
■ After loading the dishes check that the washing arms can rotate freely.
■ Pans and other dishes that have particularly stubborn food particles or remnants of burnt food should be left to soak in water with dishwasher detergent.
■ To wash silver properly:

a) rinse the silver immediately after use, especially if it has been used for mayonnaise, eggs, fish etc.;
b) do not sprinkle detergent onto it;
c) keep it separate from other metals.

How to make savings

If you want the dishwasher to give a complete wash, place the dishes in the dishwasher at the end of each meal and if necessary turn on the COLD RINSE cycle to soften the food remains and remove bigger particles of food from the new load of dishes. When the dishwasher is full start the complete wash cycle programme.
■ If the dishes are not very dirty or if the baskets are not very full select an ECONOMY programme, following the instructions in the program list.

What not to wash

It should be remembered that not all dishes are suitable for washing in a dishwasher. We advise against using the dishwasher to wash items in thermoplastic, cutlery with wooden or plastic handles, saucepans with wooden handles, items in aluminium, crystal, leaded glass unless otherwise stated.
■ Certain decorations may fade. It is therefore a good idea before loading the whole batch to wash just one of the items first so as to be sure that others like it will not fade.
■ It is a good idea not to put silver cutlery with non-stainless steel handles into the dishwasher as there could be a chemical reaction between them.

IMPORTANT

When buying new crockery or cutlery always make sure that they are suitable for washing in a dishwasher.

Useful hints

■ In order to avoid any dripping from the top rack, remove the lower rack first.
■ If the dishes are to be left in the machine for some time, leave the door ajar, to let some air circulate and to improve the drying performance.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

■ To clean the dishwasher outside, do not use solvents (degreasing action) neither abrasives, but only a cloth soaked with water.
■ The dishwasher does not require special maintenance, because the tank is self-cleaning.
■ Regularly wipe the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove any food remains or rinse aid.
■ Dishwasher cleaning is recommended, in order to remove limestone deposits or dirt. We suggest you run a washing cycle periodically with specialist dishwasher cleaning products. For all cleaning operations the dishwasher must be empty.
If, in spite of the routine cleaning of the filters, you notice that the dishes or pans are not properly washed or rinsed, check that all the spray heads on the rotor arms (fig. A "5") are clear.

If they are blocked, clean them in the following way:

1. to remove the upper rotor arm, turn it until it lines up with the stop marked by the arrow (fig. 1b). Push it upwards (fig. 1) and, keeping it pushed in, unscrew it in a clockwise direction (to reassemble it repeat the same operation, but turn it anticlockwise). The lower rotor arm can be removed simply by pulling it upwards (fig. 2);
2. wash the rotor arms under a jet of water to clear any blockage in the spray heads;
3. when you have finished, refit the rotor arms in the same position, remembering to re-align the arrow and screw into position.
   ■ Both the door lining and the tank lining are in stainless steel; however, should spots caused by oxidation occur, this is probably due to a high level of iron salts presents in the water.
   ■ The spots can be removed with a mild abrasive agent; never use chlorine based materials, steel wool, etc.

WHEN CYCLE IS FINISHED

After every wash it is essential to turn off water supply and to switch off the machine by pressing the On/Off button to the off position.

If the machine is not going to be used for some time, it is advisable to follow these rules:

1. do an empty wash with detergent in order to clean the machine of any deposits;
2. pull out the electric plug;
3. turn off the water tap;
4. fill the rinse aid container;
5. leave the door ajar;
6. keep the inside of the machine clean;
7. If the machine is left in places where the temperature is below 0°C any water left inside the pipes may freeze. Wait until the temperature rises above zero and then wait for about 24 hours before starting up the dishwasher.

■ Press the "START" button. The length of the program will be shown on the display alternating hours with minutes [I.e: 1 h (1 hour) / 25 (25 minutes)].

■ When the door is shut, after an audible signal has sounded, the programme will start automatically. The display will show the time remaining to the end of the cycle.

WITHIN one minute of the programme commencing, another programme can be selected, simply by pressing the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button.

"IMPULSE" programmes

The “IMPULSE” programmes use an impulse washing technology, which reduces consumption, noise and increases performances.

IMPORTANT

The “intermittent” working of the washing pump MUST NOT BE considered a malfunction, it is a characteristic of the impulse washing so must be considered a normal function of the programme.

Programme interruption

Opening the door when a programme is running is not recommended especially during the main wash and final hot rinse phases. However, if the door is opened while a programme is running (for example, to add dishes) the machine stops automatically and the display will flash the remaining time before the end of the cycle. Close the door, without pressing any buttons. The cycle will start from where it left off.

IMPORTANT

A running program can be interrupted without opening the door by pressing the "ON/OFF" button. In this case, simply press the "ON/OFF" button again to restart the cycle from where it left off.

WARNING!

If you open the door during the drying cycle, an audible audio signal advises you that the drying cycle has not yet finished.

Changing a running programme

Proceed as follows to change or cancel a running program:

■ Hold the "RESET" button down for at least 3 seconds. "00" will appear on the display and some audible signals will sound.
■ The running programme will be cancelled. The display will show two lines.
■ At this point a new programme can be set.

WARNING!

Before starting a new programme, you should check that there is still detergent in the dispenser. If necessary, top up the dispenser.

Programme operations

Whilst a programme is running, the display shows the time remaining to the end of the cycle, which is automatically updated.

If there is any break in the power supply while the dishwasher is operating, a special memory stores the selected programme and, when the power is restored, it continues where it left off.

Programme end

A 5 second alarm will sound (if not muted) 3 times at 30 second intervals to signal that the programme has ended.

The dishwasher will automatically switch off.

Option buttons

"EXPRESS" button €xpress=

This button provides an energy and time saving of 25% on average (according to the select cycle) reducing the wash water temperature and the drying time during the final rinse.

This programme is recommended for light soil washes, and for slightly wet dishes that are not fully dry, & improved drying results. We advise you to leave the door of the Dishwasher half-open at the end of the cycle, to allow for a natural circulation of air inside the dishwasher.

"ALL IN 1" button

This option optimises the use of "ALL in 1" ("3 in 1"/"4 in 1"/"5 in 1", ecc.) combined detergents.

By pressing this button, the selected washing programme is modified to get best performance from combined detergents (furthermore, the salt empty alert will be de-activated).

WARNING!

Once selected, this option keeps being on (light on) also for next washing cycles and it can be de-activate (light off) only by pressing the button once again.

IMPORTANT

This option is recommended when using the RAPID 24' program, the duration of which will be extended for about 15 minutes, allowing the detergent tablets to achieve a better performance.

Salt empty alert

If your dishwasher requires filling with salt, the display will show and flash "SL" when the dishwasher is switched on.

The appearance of white stains on dishes is generally a warning sign that the salt container needs filling.

"DELAY START" button

■ To start the countdown, press the "START" button.

The display will show the time remaining to the begin of the programme.

At the end of the countdown, the programme will automatically start and the length of the selected cycle will be shown in the display.

Proceed as follows to cancel a delayed start:

■ Hold the "RESET" button down for at least 3 seconds. "00" will appear on the display and some audible signals will sound.
■ The delayed start and the selected programme will be cancelled. The display will show two lines.
■ At this point, a new programme and option buttons must be set to start a new programme as indicated in the "PROGRAMME SETTINGS" section.

AQUAPROTECT – PROTECTED INCOMING WATER PIPE

The main inlet pipe is contained within a protective transparent hose. In the event of damage occurring to the main inlet pipe any water leakage is retained within the transparent hose.

If water has leaked from the main inlet pipe there will be a visible sign within the transparent hose.

You may continue to complete the programme cycle but for safety we recommend the immediate replacement of the complete hose assembly.

If the hose is not long enough for correct connection, it must be replaced with a longer one.

The hose can be obtained from a Service Centre.

Protective transparent hose Main inlet pipe

WATER SOFTENER UNIT

Depending on the source of the supply, water contains varying amounts of limestone and minerals which are deposited on the dishes leaving whitish stains and marks. The higher the level of these minerals present in the water, the harder the water is. The dishwasher is fitted with a water softener unit which, through the use of special regenerating salt, supplies softened water for washing the dishes. The degree of hardness of your water can be obtained from your water supply company.

Regulating the water softener with electronic programmer

The water softener can treat water with a hardness level of up to 90^ fH (French grading) or 50^ dH (German grading) through 8 settings.

The settings are listed in the table below:

Level	Water hardness		Use of regenerating salt	Water softener setting
	^ (French)	^ (German)
0	0-5	0-3	NO	d0
1	6-10	4-6	YES	d1
2	11-20	7-11	YES	d2
3	21-30	12-16	YES	d3
*4	31-40	17-22	YES	d4
5	41-50	23-27	YES	d5
6	51-60	28-33	YES	d6
7	61-90	34-50	YES	d7

* The softener unit is set in the factory at level 4 (d4) as this satisfies the requirements of the majority of users.

Regulate the setting of your water softener unit according to the degree of hardness of your water as follows:

IMPORTANT

The dishwasher must ALWAYS be off before start of this procedure.

1. Hold down the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button and at the same time switch on the dishwasher by pressing the "ON/OFF" button (a brief audible signal will sound).
2. Keep the "PROGRAMME SELECTION" button pressed for at least 5 seconds, UNTIL an audible signal sounds. The current water softener setting level will be shown on the display.
3. Press the same button again to select the required water softener level: each time the button is pressed, the setting will increase by one level. When you have reached "d7", the display will go back to "d0".
4. Turn off the dishwasher by pressing the "ON/OFF" button to confirm the new setting.

WARNING!

If any problem occurs, turn the dishwasher off by pressing the "ON/OFF" button and start the procedure again from the beginning (STEP 1).

	The outlet hose extension is not correctly connected	Follow the instructions for connecting the outlet hose carefully
	The outlet connection on the wall is pointing downwards not upwards	Call a qualified technician
4 - Machine discharges water continuously	Position of outlet hose is too low	Lift outlet hose to at least 40 cm above floor level
5 - Spray arms are not heard to rotate	Excessive amount of detergent	Reduce amount of detergent Use suitable detergent
	Item prevents arms from rotating	Check
	Plate and cup filter very dirty	Clean plate and cup filter
6 - On electronic appliances without a display: one or more indicator lights flashing quickly.	Water inlet tap turned off	Switch off the appliance. Turn on the tap. Re-set the cycle.
7 - Load of dishes is only partially washed	See causes for no. 5	Check
	Bottom of saucepans have not been washed well	Burnt on food remains must be soaked before putting pans in dishwasher
	Edge of saucepans have not been washed well	Reposition saucepans
	Spray arms are partially blocked	Remove spray arms by unscrewing ring nuts clockwise and wash under running water
	The dishes have not been properly loaded	Do not place the dishes too closely together
	The end of the outlet hose is in the water	The end of the outlet hose must not come into contact with the outflow water
	The incorrect amount of detergent has been measured out; the detergent is old and hard	Increase the measure according to how dirty the dishes are and change detergent
	The wash programme is not thorough enough	Choose a more vigorous programme
	The lower basket dishes have not been washed	Depress half load button
8 - Detergent not dispensed or partially dispensed	Cutlery, dishes, pans, etc... stop the detergent dispenser opening	Position dishes not to obstruct the dispenser
9 - Presence of white spots on dishes	Water is too hard	Check salt and rinse aid level and regulate amount.Should the fault persist, Contact Service Centre
10 -Noise during wash	The dishes knock against one another	Re-check loading of dishes in the basket
	The revolving arms knock against the dishes	Again re-check loading
11 -The dishes are not completely dry	Inadequate air flow	Leave the dishwasher door ajar at the end of the wash program to allow the dishes to dry naturally
	Rinse aid missing	Fill the rinse aid dispenser

N.B.: Should any of the situations occur and should the machine give a bad wash performance, it is necessary to remove the deposits from the dishes by hand since the final drying cycle hardens the deposits which a second wash in the machine would not be able to remove.

If the malfunction continues contact a Service Centre quoting the serial number of the dishwasher. This is found on the plaque on the inside of the dishwasher door at the top or on the guarantee. This information will make it possible to take more effective action more quickly.
