Frequently Asked Questions - DDWTT17 DELONGHI

How to install the DeLonghi DDWTT17 dishwasher?

For installation, ensure a level countertop, connect the water inlet hose to a cold water tap (3/4 inch thread), and attach the drain hose to a sink or standpipe. Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet. Refer to the manual for detailed steps.

How to clean the filter?

Turn off and unplug the dishwasher. Remove the lower spray arm and unscrew the filter assembly. Rinse the filter under running water, scrub gently if needed, and reassemble. Clean the filter after every 10 cycles for optimal performance.

Do I need to use salt and rinse aid?

Yes, to prevent limescale and improve drying. Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher salt (use the funnel provided) and the rinse aid dispenser until the indicator is full. Adjust settings via the control panel if needed.

What do the error codes mean?

Common codes: E1 (water inlet issue), E3 (heating problem), E4 (overflow). Check hoses, filters, and power supply. Refer to the troubleshooting section in the manual for full list.

How to start a cycle?

Load dishes, add detergent, close the door. Press the Power button, select a program (e.g., Eco for lightly soiled dishes, Intensive for pots), then press Start. The dishwasher will begin after a short delay.

Why is the dishwasher not draining?

Check if the drain hose is kinked or clogged. Clean the filter and the drain pump (located at the bottom, accessible by removing the lower panel). Also ensure the sink drain is not blocked.

Can I use regular dish soap instead of dishwasher detergent?

No, regular dish soap creates excessive suds and may damage the dishwasher. Only use low-sudsing dishwasher detergent (powder, gel, or pods).

How to descale the dishwasher?

Use a commercial dishwasher descaler or a mixture of 1 part vinegar to 3 parts water. Run an empty cycle at high temperature (Intensive or 70°C) without detergent. Repeat every 3 months.

What is the maximum dish size?

The DDWTT17 can accommodate plates up to 25 cm diameter, glasses up to 20 cm, and cutlery in the basket. For taller items, use the upper basket in the lower position.

Why is the display showing a flashing power button?

This indicates a door lock issue or a paused cycle. Ensure the door is fully closed and latched. Press Power to reset, then start the cycle again.

items not suitable for use in the dishwasher

When purchasing new crockery and cutlery, please make sure they are dishwasher-proof. Some items are not suitable for dishwashers.

- Wooden cutlery and crockery or items with wooden parts may discolour and fade. The glue used in these items is not dishwasher-proof and wooden handles may come loose after being washed in a dishwasher.

- Craft items, antiques, valuable vases and decorative glassware are also not suitable for dishwashers.

- Plastic items (e.g. tupperware) which are not heat resistant may melt or loose shape due to the high temperature in the dishwasher.

• Copper, brass, tin and aluminium items may discolour or become matt.

- Clouding may occur on glasses and delicate glassware after frequent washing. Do not wash delicate glassware or glassware containing lead crystal, in a dishwasher. Wash delicate glassware by hand instead.

• Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing. Residues like egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore, please clean the residues from silver immediately after use.

adding detergent or detergent tablet

Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers. To be more environmentally friendly, please use no more than the correct amount of detergent. Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent powder or tablet. See the detergent manufacturers instructions for the correct amount to use. If using tablets read the manufacturers recommendations on the tablet packaging in order to determine where the tablet should be placed (e.g. cutlery basket, detergent compartment etc).

Irritant

• Keep detergents and bleaches out of the reach of children.
• Irritating to eyes.
• Avoid contact with eyes. In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.
  • If swallowed, seek medical advice immediately.

GB

Bleach and Countertop detergent

Please follow the steps below to fill the detergent dispenser.

1. Push the button on the lid of the detergent dispenser until the flap springs open.

1. Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent powder to both main wash detergent chamber and pre-wash detergent chamber, or insert the detergent tablet to the main detergent chamber. The marking indicates the filling level.

All programmes with pre-wash need an additional detergent dosage that must be placed in the pre-wash detergent chamber. If using tablets please check the detergent manufacturers instructions. Please refer to the wash cycle table. This detergent will take effect during the pre-wash phase.

1. Close the lid firmly so that it clicks into place.

adding rinse aid

Rinse aid helps to ensure water does not cling and leave marks on crockery during the drying phase and helps crockery dry faster after it has been washed. Only pour rinse aid that is for domestic dishwashers into the reservoir. This model is designed to use liquid rinse aids only.

Please follow the steps below to pour the rinse aid into the storage reservoir, and the amount will dispense automatically.

1. Turn the cap and open as indicated.
2. When the cap open marking is aligned, you may lift the cap up.

Rinse Aid Indicator

1. Pour the rinse aid in until the level indicator turns completely black in colour and close the cap.

2. Be careful not to overfill the reservoir. Wipe up any spills.

Pure technical diagram of a door handle with no text, numbers, or symbols

• If the water hardness in your area is soft, you may not need rinse aid as it may cause white film to develop on your dishes.
• If you decide to use a detergent tablet, you do not need to add rinse aid into the rinse aid reservoir.
• Rinse aid refill indicator will illuminate when the reservoir is running out of rinse aid and requires refilling.
• Alternatively, you can judge the amount of rinse aid by checking the rinse aid indicator next to the reservoir cap. When the indicator is black, it means it is full. When it is clear, it means it is almost empty.

adjusting the rinse aid reservoir

The rinse aid reservoir has six settings. Both the recommended setting and the factory setting is "4". If the dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free.

- If there is some rinse aid residue left in the washing compartment or your dishes, turn the rinse aid dispenser dial to 1.

adding salt

If the water in your area is hard, deposits will form on your dishes and utensils. This appliance contains a salt reservoir for you to reduce the hardness of the water.

Please follow the steps below to pour the salt into the salt reservoir and it must be set to correspond to the water hardness level in your area.

1. Remove the basket and unscrew the reservoir cap.

GB

1. Fill the reservoir with approximately 500ml of water (first use only).

2. Place the funnel provided over the salt reservoir.

3. Pour in approximately 1.5 kg of dishwasher salt depending on the brand used.

4. Clean any excess salt from around the reservoir opening and then screw the cap on again firmly.

5. Run a short wash programme immediately (without any crockery in the dishwasher) to remove any traces of salt from the compartment.

- Salt refill indicator will illuminate when the reservoir is running out of salt and requires refilling.

- The salt refill indicator will cease to illuminate within a few days, depending on how quickly the salt dissolves.

- If you decide to use a detergent tablet, you may not need to add salt, this depends upon the water hardness in your area and the type of tablet being used. Check with your water supplier and the detergent tablet manufacturer's instructions.

• When the dishwasher is being loaded, food and drink residues may drip onto the sides of the dishwasher door. These surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and are not accessed by water from the spray arms. Any deposits should be wiped off before the door is closed.

the control panel

If cleaning is required, the control panel should be wiped with a soft damp cloth ONLY.

GB

• To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.
• Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they may scratch the finish. Some paper towels may also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

internal care

filtering system

The filtering system in the base of the wash cabinet retains coarse debris from the washing cycle. The collected coarse debris may cause the filters to clog. Check the condition of the filters regularly and clean them if necessary under running water.

Follow the steps below to clean the filters in the wash cabinet.

1. Ensure the dishwasher is switched off.
2. Unscrew the fine filter and gently lift with care. Gently lift the main filter with care.
3. Rinse all the filters under running water, including the filter cylinder, and then refit all filters.
4. Gently refit the main filter back with care. Gently screw back the fine filter in clockwise direction. There will be a slight click when located correctly.

• Do not over tighten the filters. Put the filters back in the filter cylinder in sequence securely, otherwise coarse debris could get into the system and cause a blockage.
• NEVER use the dishwasher without the filters in place. Improper replacement of the filters may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
• Perform an intensive wash cycle periodically.

spray arms

Particles of food can get stuck in the spray arm jets and bearings. The spray arms should therefore be checked and cleaned regularly.

Ensure the dishwasher is switched off. Use a pointed object, e.g. a cocktail stick, to loosen food particles in the spray arms' jets.

frost precaution

GB

Avoid placing the dishwasher in a location where the temperature can get below 0^ C. If your appliance is left in an unheated place over the winter, you are advised to:

1. Disconnect the unit from the water inlet.
2. Turn on the unit. Select any washing cycle and let it run for 1 minute only. This drains out all the excessive water that remains in the unit.
3. Disconnect from the mains socket.
4. Empty the dishwasher.
5. Close the dishwasher door.
6. Disconnect the unit from the water drain. Use a suitable receptacle to catch any residual water in the pipes.

Should you encounter any difficulties with the above steps, please ask a service technician for assistance.

moving the dishwasher

If you have to move the unit, for instance due to moving house, you are advised to:

1. Disconnect the dishwasher from the mains.
2. Disconnect the dishwasher from the water inlet and drain. Use a suitable receptacle to catch any residual water in the pipes.

3. Remove the dishwasher from the current location with the hoses discharged.

4. Pull the unit out together with the hoses.

- Avoid over tilting the unit during transportation.

• We recommend that 2 people handle the dishwasher during installation.

maintenance after a prolonged period of non-operation

If you are not going to use the unit for a prolonged period of time, you are advised to:

1. Disconnect the dishwasher from the mains.
2. Disconnect the dishwasher from the water inlet and drain. Use a suitable receptacle to catch any residual water in the pipes.
3. Slightly open the door to prevent unpleasant smells building up in the compartment.
4. Ensure the washing compartment of the dishwasher is clean.

disposal of the dishwasher

• When disposing of your old dishwasher, first make it unusable. Disconnect from the electricity and water supplies, cut off the cable and the plug from the mains cable. Make the door lock inoperative, so that children cannot accidentally shut themselves in. Make appropriate arrangements for the disposal of the dishwasher.
• At the end of its working life, the product must not be disposed of as urban waste. It must be taken to a local authority waste collection centre or to a dealer providing this service. Disposing of a household appliance separately avoids possible negative consequences for the environment and health deriving from an inappropriate disposal and enables the constituent materials to be recovered to obtain significant savings in energy and resources. As a reminder of the need to dispose of household appliances separately, the product is marked with a crossed-out wheeled dustbin.
• Please ensure that it presents no danger to children while being stored for disposal.
