Frequently Asked Questions - TDW12X Tisira

How do I install the dishwasher?

Ensure the water inlet and outlet hoses are connected correctly. The electrical supply must match the rating plate. Level the dishwasher using the adjustable feet. Refer to the installation section of the manual.

What wash programs are available?

The TDW12X offers multiple programs: Eco for energy-saving, Intensive for heavily soiled pots, Normal for everyday loads, Quick for lightly soiled dishes, Glass for delicate items, and Pre-Wash for rinsing.

Why is my dishwasher not starting?

Check that the door is closed properly and the child lock is disabled. Ensure the power cord is plugged in and the circuit breaker is on. Also, verify that the water supply is turned on.

How do I clean the filter?

Turn the filter assembly counterclockwise and remove it. Rinse under running water. Use a soft brush to remove debris. Reinstall by aligning and turning clockwise until it locks. Clean the filter every 3 months.

What should I do if the dishes are not drying?

Ensure rinse aid is filled. Use the Extra Dry option if available. Unload the dishwasher after the cycle finishes while dishes are still warm. Do not overload the racks.

How do I adjust the water softener?

Check the water hardness in your area. Set the water softener level via the control panel according to the hardness table in the manual. Add dishwasher salt to the salt dispenser.

Can I use regular dish soap?

No, only use dishwasher detergent (powder, gel, or tablets). Regular dish soap will cause excessive suds and damage the machine.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press and hold the Child Lock button for 3 seconds until the indicator lights up. To deactivate, press and hold again. This prevents accidental button presses during operation.

What does the error code E1 mean?

Error code E1 indicates a water inlet issue. Check that the water tap is fully open and the inlet hose is not kinked. Also inspect the filter in the inlet hose for blockages.

Where can I find spare parts?

Spare parts are available through authorized Tisira service centers. You can also search for compatible parts online using the model number TDW12X. Common parts include filters, spray arms, and door seals.

A. FILL THE RINSE AID DISPENSER

FUNCTION OF RINSE AID

The rinse aid is automatically released during the last rinse in order to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and streaks.

ATTENTION // Only use branded rinse aid in the dishwasher.

Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser.

To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid container is about 140ml.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any

If spots and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "5". If the dishes still are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free. The dose is factory set in position 5.
