Troubleshooting, 24

Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for future reference. If the appliance is sold, given away or moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the advice contained within it.
Please read this instruction manual carefully: it contains important information regarding the safe installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.
If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be tilted onto its back.

Positioning and levelling

1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and check that it has not been damaged during transportation. If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed any further with the installation process.
2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or back panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single worktop* (see the Assembly instruction sheet).
3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position. If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to move or cause vibrations and noise while it is operating.
   4 ^ . Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of the appliance ^ on the central lower part of the dishwasher, turning a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of 8 mm in a clockwise direction to increase the height or in an anticlockwise direction to decrease the height.

Connecting the water and electricity supplies

Connection to the water and electricity supplies should only be performed by a qualified technician.
The dishwasher should not stand on top of the water hoses or the electricity supply cable.
The appliance must be connected to the water supply network using new hoses. Do not use old hoses.

The water inlet (A) and outlet (B) hoses and the electricity supply cable may be positioned towards the right or the left in order to achieve the best possible installation (see figure).

A 118 45 95 117 120 B 134 124

Connecting the water inlet hose

• To a suitable cold water connection point: before attaching the hose, run the water until it is perfectly clear so that any impurities that may be present in the water do not clog the appliance; after performing this operation, screw the inlet hose tightly onto a tap with a 34 gas threaded connection.
• To a suitable hot water connection point: your dishwasher may be supplied with hot water from the mains supply (if you have a central heating system with radiators) provided that it does not exceed a temperature of 60^ C.

Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection to a cold water supply.

If the inlet hose is not long enough, contact a specialist store or an authorised technician (see Assistance).
The water pressure must be within the values indicated in the Technical data table (see adjacent information).
The hose should not be bent or compressed.

Anti-flooding protection

To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:

- is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply in the event of anomalies or leaks from inside the appliance.

Some models are also equipped with the supplementary safety device New Acqua Stop ^* , which guarantees anti-flooding protection even in the event of a supply hose rupture.

WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE!

Under no circumstance should the water inlet hose be cut as it contains live electrical parts.

Connecting the water outlet hose

Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drain duct with a minimum diameter of 4 cm. Alternatively, rest it over a sink or tub; the free end of the hose should not remain immersed in water.

Technical diagram showing pipe installation components with labeled parts A and B, including a 40 cm height dimension.

The special plastic elbow ^* makes it easier to find the best layout: fix the elbow to the wall securely in order to prevent the outlet hose from moving and spilling the dirty water. The part of the hose marked with the letter A should be between 40 and 100 cm above the ground (see figure).

We advise against the use of hose extensions.

Electrical connection

Before inserting the plug into the electrical socket, make sure that:

• The socket is earthed and complies with current regulations.
• The socket can withstand the maximum load of the appliance, which is indicated on the data plate located on the inside of the door (see chapter entitled Description of the appliance).
• The power supply voltage falls within the values indicated on the data plate on the inside of the door.
• The socket is compatible with the plug of the appliance. If this is not the case, ask an authorised technician to replace the plug (see Assistance); do not use extension cables or multiple sockets.

Once the appliance has been installed, the power supply is able and the electrical socket should be easily accessible.

The cable should not be bent or compressed.

If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced the manufacturer or its Technical Assistance Service in order to prevent all potential hazards. (See Assistance)

The Company shall not be held responsible for any dents that occur if these regulations are not observed.

Anti-condensation strip\*

After installing the dishwasher, open the door and stick the adhesive transparent strip under the wooden shelf in order to protect it from any condensation which may form.

Advice regarding the first wash cycle

After the appliance has been installed, immediately before running the first wash cycle, completely fill the salt dispenser with water and add only then approximately 1 kg of salt (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). The water may overflow: this is normal and is not a cause for concern. Select the water hardness value (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). - After the salt has been poured into the machine, the LOW SALT indicator light* switches off.

If the salt container is not filled, the water softener and the ting element may be damaged as a result.

Switch it back on using the same button and select the desired wash cycle and options.

Adding extra crockery

Press the Start/Pause button (the corresponding indicator light will flash). Open the door, taking care to avoid the escaping steam, and place the crockery inside the appliance. Press the Start/Pause button (fixed light): the cycle starts from the point at which it was interrupted.

⚠️ If the Start/Pause button is pressed so as to pause the machine, the wash cycle or the Delayed Start ^* function (if selected) is interrupted.

At this stage it is not possible to change the wash cycle.

Accidental interruptions

If the door is opened during the wash cycle, or if there is a power cut, the cycle stops. It starts again from the point at which it was interrupted once the door has been shut or once the electricity supply is restored.

Measuring out the detergent

A good wash result also depends on the correct amount of detergent being used; exceeding the stated amount does not result in a more effective wash and increases environmental pollution.

Only use detergent which has been specifically designed for dishwashers.
DO NOT USE washing up liquid.
Using excessive detergent may result in foam residue remaining in the machine after the cycle has ended.
The use of tablets is only recommended for models which offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option.
To achieve the best results from each washing and drying cycle, powder detergent, rinse aid liquid and salt should be used.

Compartment A: Washing detergent

Compartment B: Pre-wash detergent

D A B C

1. Open cover C by pressing button D.

2. Pour in the detergent after consulting the Table of wash cycles:

3. For powder detergent use compartments A and B.

4. For detergent in tablet form:

when the cycle requires 1 tablet, place it in compartment A and close the cover; when it requires 2, place the second tablet at the bottom of the appliance.

1. Remove detergent residues from the edges of the compartment and close the cover until it clicks.

Wash options

The OPTIONS may only be set, modified or reset after the wash cycle has been selected and before the Start/Pause button has been pressed.

Only the options which are compatible with the type of wash cycle set may be selected. If an option is not compatible with the selected was cycle (see Table of wash cycles), the corresponding LED flashes rapidly 3 times.

If an option is selected which is incompatible with another option or wash cycle selected previously, the incompatible option light will flash 3 times and switches off, while the most recently selected setting remains lit.

To deselect an option which has been set by mistake, press the corresponding button again.

2. Confirm your selection using the Start/Pause button; the countdown will begin. The selected delay period indicator light is displayed and the Start/Pause button stops flashing (the light becomes fixed instead).
3. When the set time has elapsed, a long beep sounds, the DELAYED START indicator light switches off and the wash cycle begins.

To deselect the DLEAYED START option, press the DELAYED START button repeatedly until the text OFF appears.

The Delayed Start function cannot be set once the wash has been started.

Half load

If there are not many dishes to be washed, a half load cycle may be used in order to save water, electricity and detergent. Select the wash cycle and press the HALF LOAD button: the indicator light will illuminate.

Remember to halve the amount of detergent.
It is better to use powder detergent in this case.
This option is incompatible with the following wash cycle: Rapide wash.

Multi-functional tablets (Tabs)

This option optimises washing and drying results. When using multi-functional tablets, press the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS button. The corresponding indicator light will illuminate. The “Multi-functional tablets” option results in the lengthening of the wash cycle.

The MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option remains set for subsequent wash cycles if it is not deselected.
The use of tablets is only recommended for models which offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option.
This option is not recommended for use with wash cycles which do not specify the use of multi-functional tablets (see Table of options).
This option is incompatible with the following wash cycle: Soak.

Notes:

Optimum performance levels when using the "Daily 60' - Rapide wash" cycles can be achieved by observing the maximum amounts of crockery specified.

To make it easier to measure out the detergent, it is worth remembering that:

1 tablespoon = 15 gr. of powder = approximately 15 ml of liquid - 1 teaspoon = 5 gr. of powder = approximately 5 ml of liquid

* The Eco wash cycle adheres to the regulation EN-50242. Although it has a longer duration than other wash cycles it uses less energy and is less harmful to the environment.

Note for Test Laboratories: for information relating to comparative EN testing conditions, please send an email to the following address: [e-mail]

Only use products which have been specifically designed for dishwashers. Do not use table salt or industrial salt, or washing up liquid.

Follow the instructions given on the packaging.

If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add rinse aid; however, we recommend that you add salt, especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or very hard. Follow the instructions given on the packaging.

⚠️ If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT ^ and LOW RINSE AID ^ indicator lights remain lit.

Measuring out the rinse aid

Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water runs off surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave streaks or marks.

The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:

- When the LOW RINSE AID* indicator light on the control panel/display is illuminated;

Diagram of a refrigerator interior with labeled parts and directional arrows indicating parts of the refrigerator.

1. Open the dispenser by turning the lid (G) in an anticlockwise direction.
2. Pour in the rinse aid, making sure it does not overflow from the dispenser. If this happens, clean the spill immediately with a dry cloth.
3. Screw the lid back on.

NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.

Adjusting the amount of rinse aid

If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, you may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a screwdriver to turn the dosage adjuster (F) to one of the 6 pre-set positions (the default position is set to 4):

• If there are streaks on the crockery, set the adjustment device to a lower number (1-3).
• If drops of water remain on the crockery or if there are limescale marks present after the cycle has finished, set the adjuster to a higher number (4-6).

Setting the water hardness

Every dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which, by using refined salt designed especially for this type of appliance, supplies water without limescale which is then used to wash the crockery.

This dishwasher offers a setting which helps to reduce pollution and optimises washing performance in accordance with the water hardness level in your area. This information can be obtained from your local water supplier.

• Switch on the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
• Press the P button and hold for approximately 5 seconds; two short beeps will sound, the text H2O will appear on the display and the set hardness number will flash (the water softening system is set by default to number 3). Press the P

button repeatedly until the desired hardness level has been reached (1-2-3-4-5* see Water hardness table), up to a maximum of five levels.

- To exit the function, wait approximately 30 seconds or switch off the machine using the ON/OFF button.

Even if using multi-functional tablets, the salt dispenser should still be filled.

For values between 0°f and 10°f, we do not recommend the use of salt.* this setting may cause a slight increase in the duration of the cycle.

(°dH = hardness measured in German degrees - °f = hardness measured in French degrees - mmol/l = millimoles per litre)

Measuring out the refined salt

In order to achieve the best possible results using a wash cycle, make sure that the dispenser is never empty. Refined salt removes limescale from the water, thus avoiding the formation of deposits on crockery.

The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the dishwasher (see Description) and should be filled:

• When the green float ^* cannot be seen by simply looking at the cap of the salt dispenser.
• When the LOW SALT ^* indicator light on the control panel/display is illuminated;

1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the container cap (anticlockwise).
2. The first time you do this: fill the water tank right up to its edge.
3. Position the funnel ^* (see figure) and fill the salt container right up to its edge

(this should hold approximately 1 kg); it is not unusual for a little water to leak out.

1. Remove the funnel* and wipe any salt residue away from the opening; rinse the cap under running water and then screw it on, the head facing downwards so as to let the water flow out of the four cracks which are arranged in a star shape on the lower part of the cap. (Salt cap with green float*)

It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you add salt to the container.

Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can get into the container during the wash cycle (this could damage the water softener beyond repair).

When necessary, measure out the salt before a wash cycle so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the salt dispenser is removed.

* Only available in selected models.

Shutting off the water and electricity supplies

• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to avoid leaks.
• Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it and when performing maintenance work.

Cleaning the dishwasher

• The external surfaces of the machine and the control panel may be cleaned using a non-abrasive cloth which has been dampened with water. Do not use solvents or abrasive products.
• Any marks on the inside of the appliance may be removed using a cloth dampened with water and a little vinegar.

Preventing unpleasant odours

• Always keep the door of the appliance ajar in order to avoid moisture from forming and being trapped inside the machine.
• Clean the seals around the door and detergent dispensers regularly using a damp sponge. This will avoid food becoming trapped in the seals, which is the main cause behind the formation of unpleasant odours.

Cleaning the sprayer arms

Food residue may become encrusted onto the sprayer arms and block the holes used to spray the water. It is therefore recommended that the arms are checked from time to time and cleaned with a small non-metallic brush.

The two sprayer arms may both be removed.

To remove the upper sprayer arm, rotate the locking ring in an anti-clockwise direction. The upper sprayer arm should be replaced with the holes facing upwards.

Mechanical assembly diagram showing a valve inserted into a base with a handle and nut (no text or symbols)

The lower sprayer arm can be removed by pulling it upwards.

Cleaning the water inlet filter\*

If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of impurities before performing the necessary connections. If this precaution is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked and damage the dishwasher.

Clean the water inlet filter at the tap outlet regularly.

• Turn off the water tap.
• Unscrew the end of the water inlet hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under running water.
• Replace the filter and screw the water hose back into position.

Cleaning the filters

The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food residues from the washing water and then recirculate the water. They should be cleaned if you wish to achieve the best results in every wash.

Clean the filters regularly.

The dishwasher should not be used without filters, or if the filter is loose.

• After several washes, check the filter assembly and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-metallic brush and following the instructions below:
• Turn the cylindrical filter C in an anti-clockwise direction and pull it out (fig. 1).
• Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on the side flaps (fig. 2).
• Slide out the stainless steel plate filter A (fig. 3).
• Inspect the trap and remove any food residue. NEVER REMOVE the wash cycle pump (black detail) (fig. 4).

Saving energy and respecting the environment

Saving water and energy

• Only begin a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full. While waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent unpleasant odours using the Soak cycle (see Wash cycles).
• Select a wash cycle which is suited to the type of crockery and to the soil level of the crockery using the Table of wash cycles:
• For dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco wash cycle, which guarantees low energy and water consumption levels.
• If the load is smaller than usual activate the Half load option ^* (see Start-up and use).
• If your electricity supply contract gives details of electricity saving time bands, run wash cycles during the periods when a lower tariff is applied. The Delayed start* button (see Start-up and use) helps you organise the wash cycles accordingly.

Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents containing enzymes

• We strongly recommend that you use detergents that do not contain phosphates or chlorine, as these products are harmful to the environment.
• Enzymes provide a particularly effective action at temperatures around 50^ C, and as a result detergents containing enzymes can be used in conjunction with low-temperature wash cycles in order to achieve the same results as a normal 65^ C wash cycle.
• To avoid wasting detergent, use the product in appropriate quantities based on the manufacturer's recommendations, the hardness of the water and the soil level and quantity of crockery to be washed. Even if they are biodegradable, detergents contain substances which may alter the balance of nature.

Whenever the appliance fails to work, check for a solution from the following list before calling for Assistance.
