Frequently Asked Questions - VW249M ETNA

What type of detergent should I use?

We recommend using a standard dishwasher detergent (powder, gel, or tablets) with integrated rinse aid. For best results, use a detergent with salt and rinse aid components.

How do I clean the filters?

Remove the lower basket and unscrew the filter assembly. Rinse the filters under running water, brushing off any debris. Reassemble and tighten. Clean filters at least once a month.

What does the Aquastop warning mean?

If the Aquastop system activates, the water inlet hose has detected a leak. Turn off the water supply, unplug the dishwasher, and contact a qualified technician to inspect the hose and connections.

Can I use regular table salt instead of dishwasher salt?

No, regular table salt may contain anti-caking agents that can damage the water softener. Always use specific dishwasher salt (coarse grain) for optimal performance.

Why does my dishwasher have a bad smell?

Odors are usually caused by food debris on filters or in the spray arms. Clean filters, spray arms, and run a maintenance cycle with a dishwasher cleaner or vinegar. Leave the door slightly open after each wash.

How do I load the baskets for best cleaning?

Place large items (pots, plates) on the bottom rack facing the spray arms. Put cups and glasses on the top rack. Ensure nothing obstructs the spray arms. Use the cutlery basket for silverware.

What does error code E15 mean?

Error code E15 indicates a water leak or overflow. Immediately turn off the appliance and disconnect from power. Close the water tap and call a service technician to inspect the internal seals and hoses.

How do I enable the child lock?

Press and hold the 'Start' button for about 5 seconds until the child lock icon appears on the display. To disable, repeat the same procedure. The child lock prevents accidental button presses.

Can I wash aluminum pans in the dishwasher?

It is not recommended. Aluminum can react with dishwasher chemicals and cause discoloration or pitting. Hand wash aluminum items for best results.

How long is the warranty on this dishwasher?

The standard warranty is 2 years from the date of purchase. You may register your product for an extended warranty (up to 5 years) on the Etna website.

Regeneration salt (water softener)

This machine is equipped with a water softener. To use the water softener, fill the dishwasher with salt.

• After first having removed the bottom basket, loosen the cap of the reservoir (1 and 2).
• Prior to filling the reservoir for the first time, pour one litre of water in it (3).
• Place the funnel in the reservoir opening. Pour about 2 kg of salt in it (4). It is normal for a little water to flow out of the opening when doing this. Note! Clear up any spilled salt and always run a full cycle immediately afterwards to prevent damage to the bottom.
• Carefully tighten the cap of the reservoir.

Note! Always fill the salt reservoir and adjust the water hardness setting before using the dishwasher. Refill the salt reservoir when the water softener indicator (2) lights up. It is possible that the light will remain lit for a short while after the salt reservoir is filled. It will go out automatically when enough salt has been dissolved in the water.

Setting the salt consumption

Adjust the salt consumption according to the table below:

Water hardness level	German hardness dH	French hardness dF	English hardness dE	Indicator
1 0-5	0-9 0-6 P1-9h	LEDs are on
2 6-11	10-20 7-14	P2-9h LEDs are on

Dishwasher detergents

The chemicals in the dishwasher detergents remove the dirt, break it down and make sure that the dirt is drained from the dishwasher. Most dishwasher detergents available in stores are suitable for this purpose.

Warning!

Dishwasher detergent is a corrosive product. It should therefore be kept out of the reach of children. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately and take the packaging with you.

Concentrated detergent

Based on their chemical composition, 2 different types of concentrated detergent can be distinguished:

• Conventional alkaline detergents with corrosive ingredients.
• Low-alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.

The use of concentrated dishwasher detergent in combination with “normal” wash programs produces less contamination and is good for your dishes: these wash programs are specifically geared to the dirt-dissolving characteristics of the enzymes in the concentrated dishwasher agent. This means that “normal” wash cycles with concentrated detergent achieve the same results as an intensive wash cycle.

Dishwasher tablets

Dishwasher tablets from different manufacturers dissolve at different rates. This means that, during short wash cycles, certain types of dishwasher tablet do not fully dissolve, as a result of which their cleaning action is reduced. Dishwasher tablets should therefore chiefly be used in combination with long wash cycles, so that the dish washer tablet has time to fully dissolve.

When you switch from dishwashing tablets to a traditional dishwashing agent, you have to make sure that the salt reservoir and the rinse agent reservoir are completely filled.

Detergent compartment

Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse agent than conventional dishwashers. Generally speaking, just one measuring spoon of detergent powder is needed for a normal wash cycle. Use more detergent if your dishes are more heavily soiled. Fill the soap compartment immediately prior to starting the cycle. Filling it prior to this may result in the detergent becoming damp and therefore not fully dissolving.

Note! The table on page 9 shows the amount of detergent required for the different cycles. These are averages. A different dosage may be necessary, depending on the hardness of the water and how soiled the dishes are.

Filling

1. Press the release catch if the lid is closed.
   The lid will slide open.
2. Fill the detergent compartment immediately prior to starting a wash cycle.

The markings in the detergent compartment indicate the dosage.

- The container has a capacity of maximum 45 gr. Fill up the container with 25 gr. of the detergent for very dirty dishes and 15 gr. for normal dishes.

Use only detergents that are specifically designed for dishwashers. Store the detergent in a cool and dry place. Only fill the detergent compartment with detergent when you are running a wash cycle immediately afterwards.

Loading the baskets

Electrical insulator assembly diagram with multiple components arranged in a grid (no text or labels visible)

Using the upper basket

The upper basket is designed for fragile, light dishes, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small bowls and shallow (not particularly dirty) pans.

Place the dishes in the basket in such a way as to ensure they cannot move when sprayed. The height of the top basket can be adjusted.

Illustration of a hand holding a cable or connector inside a wire cage (no text or symbols visible)

Height adjustment upper basket

Top basket of your machine is in upper position. When it is in this position, you can place big items such as pans, etc. on lower basket. When you take top basket to lower position, you can place and wash big sized plates on the top basket.

Mechanical assembly diagram showing a conveyor belt system with pulleys and a wheel (no text or symbols)

1. Open the basket retaining parts at the end of top basket rails by turning them to the sides.

2. Take the basket out.

3. Change the position of the wheels; reinstall the basket to the rail.

4. Close basket retainer parts.

Height Adjustable Rack

The height adjustable racks enable glasses and cups to be placed on or under the racks. The racks can be adjusted to 2 different heights. Cutlery and utensils can also be placed on the racks horizontally.

Cross-sectional illustration of a mechanical component with threaded parts and internal structure (no text or symbols)

Using the lower basket

We advise you to place large objects that are hardest to clean in the bottom basket: pots, pans, pan lids, oven dishes and bowls. Casserole dishes and pan lids should preferably be placed at the side of the basket. This will ensure that they do not obstruct the spray arm when it is turning.

Illustration of kitchen utensils arranged in a grid (no text or symbols)

• Saucepans, serving dishes etc. must always be placed upside down in the basket.
• Deep bowls should be tilted, with the opening facing downwards to allow water to escape.
• The lower basket can be adjusted to allow for larger, or more, pots and pans.

Cutlery basket

The cutlery basket is used in the bottom basket. Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery basket with the handles pointing down. Long kitchen utensils such as wooden spoons have to be in a position lying down (horizontal) on the middle rack in the top basket.

Warning!

Take care to ensure that no objects are sticking through the bottom of the cutlery basket, as this will obstruct the spray arm.

Cutlery/crockery unsuitable for the dishwasher

• Cutlery with a wooden, porcelain or mother of pearl handle
• Plastic objects that are not heat-resistant
• Cutlery with glued elements that are not heat-resistant
• Glued cutlery or crockery
• Pewter or copper objects
• Lead crystal glassware
  • Steel objects that are prone to rust
• Wooden dishes
• Objects manufactured from synthetic fibres

Cutlery/crockery with limited suitability for use in the dishwasher

• Certain types of glass can become dull after undergoing a large number of wash cycles
  • Silver and aluminium may tarnish after use in the dishwasher
• Glazed patters may fade as a result of regular washing

Note! Do not place any objects soiled with cigarette ash, candle wax, varnish or paint in the dishwasher. When buying new kitchen utensils, ensure that they are suitable for the dishwasher.

Do not overload the dishwasher. There is only room for 12 standard settings. Do not place cooking utensils that are unsuitable for dishwashers inside. This is essential to ensure good washing results and a low energy consumption.

Placing cutlery and crockery in the dishwasher

Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, you must:

• Remove any large bits of leftover food.
• Leave caked and burnt on leftover food to soak for a while.

When inserting the dishes, take care to ensure that:

• The spray arm is not obstructed by the dishes.
• Hollow objects are placed with the opening facing downwards, to ensure that that cannot hold the water.

Plates and cutlery must not cover each other

• Glassware items must not touch, otherwise damage can occur.
• Place large objects that are difficult to clean in the lower basket.
• The upper basket is specially designed for lighter objects, such as glasses and coffee and tea cups.

Warning!

• Long knives standing upright in the cutlery basket can cause injury!
• Long and/or sharp items of cutlery, such as carving knives, should be laid (placed horizontally) in the upper basket.

Damage to glassware and other crockery

Potential causes:

• Type of glass or manufacturing process. Chemical composition of the dishwasher detergent.
  • Water temperature and duration of the wash cycle.

Proposed solution:

• Use glassware and porcelain crockery produced by manufacturers that state that it is suitable for dishwashers.
• Use a milder/less corrosive dishwasher detergent. If needed, ask detergent manufacturers for more information.
• Select a wash cycle with a lower temperature.
• Remove glassware and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as possible after the cycle has finished, to prevent damage.

Filter system

Diagram of a device with directional arrows indicating motion or flow, no readable text or symbols present.

Depending on usage, the filters may require regular rinsing under a tap. The filtration system consists of three components: the large filter, the coarse filter and the fine filter.

a. Fine filter: This filter prevents waste and leftover food from entering the drainage pump and ensures that said leftovers are not spread over the dishes again during the cycle.
b. Coarse filter: Larger articles, such as leftover bones or pieces of glass that could block the drain, are trapped in the coarse filter. In order to remove the waste from the filter, you must lightly squeeze the lips on top of the filter together and then pull the filter upwards.
c. Large filter: Leftover food and waste that lands on this filter is rinsed through to the coarse filter by a special jet on the lower spray arm.

Clean the filter group

In order to ensure the dishwasher operates at maximum efficiency, the whole filter section must be cleaned.

The filter group efficiently removes food remains from the water and makes sure that the washing water can continue circulating during the washing program. It is therefore a good idea to remove larger food remnants from the filter section after each wash cycle, by cleaning the half-round filter and filter housing under running water.

• Remove the filter section by grasping the handle and pulling upwards. All components in the filter section must be cleaned at least once per month.
• Use a dishwashing brush to clean the coarse and fine filter. Put the filter section back together again according to the illustration opposite and then re-fit the whole filter section back into the tub of the dishwasher.

Never use the dishwasher without the filter section. Incorrect fitting of the filter section will result in the dishwasher no longer delivering maximum performance. Damage to cutlery and dishes is a further possible consequence.

Cleaning the spray arms

Diagram showing a mechanical or fluid system with directional arrows and a central component (no text or symbols)

It is essential that you clean the spray arms on a regular basis. In the longer term, waste can block the nozzles and the bearings in the spray arms. Clean the spray arms as follows:

• Loosen and turn the nut of the top spray arm to the left to remove the arm.
• Next remove the spray arm.
• Pull the bottom spray arm upward from the retainer.
• Clean the spray arms in warm, soapy water, using a soft brush to clean the nozzles.
• Rinse the spray arms thoroughly before fixing back in place.

Cleaning the door

Clean the edge of the door, including the sealing rubber, with a soft, damp cloth. Take care to ensure that water does not enter the door locking mechanism or electrical components. Spray-type cleaning products should not be used, nor aggressive cleaning products such as scourers. These cleaning products can damage the finish.

This means that the appliance may not be included with normal domestic refuse at the end of its service life. The device has to be brought to a centre for separated waste collection or to a point of sale that provides this service.

Processing household devices separately prevents possible negative consequences for the environment and the health caused by inappropriate processing. It ensures that the material that appliance consists of, can be recovered to obtain a significant saving of energy and raw materials.
