Frequently Asked Questions - PD 1046 D TOW Philco

How do I install the built-in dishwasher?

Ensure the cutout dimensions match: 60 cm width, 82-86 cm height, 60 cm depth. Connect the water inlet to a cold water supply (3/4 inch thread), drain hose to a siphon, and plug into a grounded outlet. Level the appliance using adjustable feet. Secure with brackets to adjacent cabinets.

What wash programs are available on the PD 1046 D TOW?

The dishwasher offers five programs: Intensive for heavily soiled pots and pans, Eco for energy-efficient washing, Normal for mixed loads, Quick for lightly soiled dishes, and Rinse & Hold to prevent odors before a full wash.

How do I clean the filter?

Turn off and unplug the dishwasher. Remove the lower spray arm. Unscrew the coarse filter (cylinder) and fine filter (flat mesh). Rinse under running water with a soft brush. Reassemble in reverse order. Clean monthly to maintain performance.

Why is my dishwasher not draining?

Check if the drain hose is kinked or clogged. Clean the pump filter (located under the lower basket). Ensure the sink drain is not blocked. If the problem persists, the drain pump may be faulty.

Can I use regular dish soap instead of dishwasher detergent?

No, regular dish soap causes excessive suds and may damage the appliance. Always use dishwasher-specific detergent (powder, gel, or tablets) along with rinse aid for best results.

How do I adjust the upper basket height?

Pull out the upper basket to the stop. Lift the basket side rails by pressing the tabs and raising or lowering the basket to the desired level. Ensure it clicks into place.
There are typically two heights: lower for large plates in bottom basket, higher for tall glasses.

What does the salt indicator mean?

The salt indicator lights up when the water softener needs regeneration. Fill the salt dispenser with dishwasher salt (not table salt). Unscrew the cap, use a funnel to fill, then replace cap tightly. The indicator will turn off after a cycle.

Why are my dishes not drying completely?

Check if rinse aid is full. Use a higher temperature in the final rinse (e.g., intensive cycle). Ensure the drying option is selected. Leave the door slightly open for 15 minutes after the cycle to release steam.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press and hold the Delay Start or Program button for 3-5 seconds until a lock symbol appears on the display (if present) or beeps. To deactivate, repeat the same step.

What spare parts are available for this model?

Common spare parts include: spray arms, filters, detergent dispenser, door hinges, and salt cap. According to EU regulations, spare parts (including motor, pump, and electronic board) are available for at least 7 years after the last unit is produced.
