When using tablets that integrate rinse aid, detergent, salt function and other additives:

there is no need to fill up with special salt or rinse aid.

Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hardness. Follow the manufacturers instructions.

- Set the water hardness to level 1.

IMPORTANT!

If the drying results are not satisfactory we recommend that you:

  1. Fill up the rinse aid dispenser with rinse aid.

  2. Set the rinse aid dosage to position 2.

If you decide in future to use separated detergents, we advise that you:

- Fill up the salt and rinse aid container.

- Adjust the water hardness setting to the highest level and perform 1 normal washing programme without loading any dishes.

- Adjust the water hardness setting according to the hardness of the water in your area.

- Adjust the rinse aid dosage

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 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.

IMPORTANT!

The water softener must be set in both ways: manually and electronically.

Loading cutlery and dishes

- The following items are not suitable for use in the dishwasher:

  • Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother-of-pearl handles
  • Plastic items that are not heat resistant
  • Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant
  • Bonded cutlery items or dishes
  • Pewter or copper items
  • Lead crystal glass
  • Steel items prone to rusting
  • Wooden platters
  • Items made from synthetic fibres

- When loading the dishwasher, make sure that you:

  • Remove all left over food and debris.
  • Soften remnants of burnt food in pans
  • Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with the opening downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.
  • Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other.
  • To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch.
  • Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.

- Plastic items and pans with teflon have a tendency to retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel items.

IMPORTANT!

Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely.

Unloading the dishwasher

IMPORTANT!

Open the dishwasher's door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. In this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.

  • Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one.
  • Water may appear on the sides and the door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes.

Cleaning and care

Cleaning the filters

IMPORTANT!

NEVER use the dishwasher without filters.

Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results.

Replace the filters and lock by turning the handle clockwise to the stop.

IMPORTANT!

NEVER try to remove the spray arms.

If residues of soil have clogged the holes in the upper spray arm, remove them with a toothpick.

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....).

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.

Prolonged periods of non-operation

If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are advised to:

  1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.
  2. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any unpleasant smells.
  3. Leave the inside of the machine clean.

Environmental concerns

Packaging material

The packaging materials are environmentally friendly and can be recycled. The plastic components are identified by markings, e.g. >PE<, >PS<, etc. Please dispose of the packaging materials in the appropriate container at the community waste disposal facilities.

ZANUSSI ZDF121 - Packaging material - 1

WARNING!

When a unit is no longer being used:

  • Pull the plug out of the socket.
  • Cut off the cable and plug and dispose of them.
  • Dispose of the door catch. This prevents children from trapping themselves inside and endangering their lives.

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....):

  1. Unplug it.
  2. Turn the water tap off.
  3. Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.
  4. Pull the machine out together with the hoses.
  5. Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position, otherwise salt water may run out.
