Frequently Asked Questions - BDWM46X Bellini

What should I do if the dishwasher doesn't start?

Check if the fuse is blown or circuit breaker tripped. Ensure the door is closed securely and the power cord is plugged in. Verify water supply is on and pressure is adequate.

Why are my dishes not clean after a cycle?

Possible causes: dishes overloaded or improperly loaded, spray arms blocked, filters dirty, or insufficient detergent. Select a more intensive program and ensure proper loading as per the manual.

What causes white film on glassware?

Hard water minerals or too much detergent. Use less detergent if water is soft, or increase rinse aid setting. Clean interior with a damp sponge and dishwasher detergent.

How do I clean the filters?

Turn the coarse filter anticlockwise to remove, then pull out the fine filter. Rinse under running water and use a soft brush. Reassemble in reverse order and turn clockwise to lock.

How do I adjust the rinse aid setting?

Turn the rinse aid indicator dial inside the dispenser (range 1-6). Higher number means more rinse aid. Adjust if dishes have spots (increase) or sticky whitish stains (decrease).

What do the error codes mean?

Rapid indicator flashing: longer inlet time (check faucet/water pressure). 90 mins and Rapid flashing: heating element issue. Glass flashing: overflow/leak. Turn off water supply if overflow occurs.

Can I use regular dish soap in the dishwasher?

No, only use detergent specifically made for automatic dishwashers. Regular soap or laundry detergent will cause excessive suds and may damage the appliance.

How should I load the baskets for best results?

Place large items (pots, pans) in lower basket, delicate items (glasses, cups) in upper basket. Ensure spray arms can rotate freely. Load cutlery with sharp points down. Do not overload.

What is the warranty period for the Bellini BDWM46X?

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

- External Care

The door and the door seal

Clean the door seals regularly with a soft damp cloth to remove food deposits. 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.

WARNING

• 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.

NOTE:

Pictures are only for reference, different models of the filtering system and spray arms may be different.

1 Hold the coarse filter and rotate it anticlockwise to unlock the filter. Lift the filter upwards and out of the dishwasher.

2 The fine filter can be pulled off the bottom of the filter assembly. The coarse filter can be detached from the main filter by gently squeezing the tabs at the top and pulling it away.

Caring For The Dishwasher

Frost precaution

Please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter. Every time after washing cycles, please operate as follows:

1. Cut off the electrical power to the dishwasher at the supply source.
2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
3. Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to gather the water)
4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
5. Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up water in the sump.

After every wash

After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly open so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

Remove the plug

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.

No solvents or abrasive cleaning

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water.

To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water an a little vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

When not in use for a longtime

It is recommend that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly open. This will help the door seals to last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.

Moving the appliance

If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

Seals

One of the factors that cause odours to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Disconnect electrical power before installing dishwasher.

Failure to do so could result in death or electrical shock.

Attention

The installation of the pipes and electrical equipments should be done by professionals.

• About Power Connection

WARNING

For personal safety:

• Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug with this appliance.
• Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the earthing connection from the power cord.

Electrical requirements

Please look at the rating label to know the rating voltage and connect the dishwasher to the appropriate power supply. Use the required fuse 10A/13A/16A, time delay fuse or circuit breaker recommended and provide separate circuit serving only this appliance.

Electrical connection

Ensure the voltage and frequency of the power being corresponds to those on the rating plate. Only insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug, replace the socket, rather than using a adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.

⚠ Ensure that proper earthing exists before use

Water Supply And Drain

Cold water connection

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 inch connector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place.

If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear. This precaution is needed to avoid the risk of the water inlet to be blocked and damage the appliance.

ordinary supply hose

How to connect the safety supply hose

1. Pull The safety supply hoses completely out from storage compartment located at rear of dishwasher.
2. Tighter the screws of the safety supply hose to the faucet with thread 3/4 inch.
3. Turn water fully on before starting the dishwasher.

How to disconnect the safety supply hose

1. Turn off the water.
2. Unscrew the safety supply hose from the faucet.

Connection Of Drain Hoses

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4 cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. The height of drain pipe must be less than 1000mm. The free end of the hose must not be immersed in water to avoid the back flow of it.

Please securely fix the drain hose in either position A or position B

How to drain excess water from hoses

If the sink is 1000 higher from the floor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable container that is held outside and lower than the sink.

Water outlet

Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. Ensure that the water drain hose is not kinked or squashed.

Extension hose

If you need a drain hose extension, make sure to use a similar drain hose. It must be no longer than 4 meters; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be reduced.

Syphon connection

The waste connection must be at a height less than 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the dish. The water drain hose should be fixed .

Position The Appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or walls. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned either to the right or the left sides to facilitate proper installation.

Levelling the appliance

Once the appliance is positioned for levelling, the height of the dishwasher may be altered via adjustment of the screwing level of the feet. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined more than 2^ .

Diagram showing a hand holding a tool with an arrow indicating motion, enclosed in a dashed circle (no text or symbols)

NOTE:

Only apply to the free standing dishwasher.

Free Standing Installation

Fitting between existing carbinets

The height of the dishwasher, 845 mm, has been designed in order to allow the machine to be fitted between existing cabinets of the same height in modern fitted kitchens. The feet can be adjusted so that correct height is reached.

The laminated top of the machine does not require any particular care since it is heatproof, scratchproof and stainproof.

Line drawing of a minimalist kitchen sink with a grid-patterned wall and side table (no text or symbols)

Underneath existing work top

(When fitting beneath a work top) In most modern fitted kitchens there is only one single work top under which cabinets and electrical appliances are fitted. In this case remove the work top of the dishwasher by unscrewing the screws under the rear edge of the top (a).

Attention

After removing the work top, the screws must be screwed again under the rear edge of the top (b).

The height will then be reduced to 815 mm, as scheduled by the International Regulations (ISO) and the dishwasher will fit perfectly under the kitchen working top

If this occurs, open the dishwasher and let suds evaporate. Add 1 gallon of cold water to the bottom of the dishwasher. Close the dishwasher door, then select any cycle. Initially, the dishwasher will drain out the water. Open the door after draining stage is complete and check if the suds have disappeared. Repeat if necessary.
Stained tub interior Detergent with colourant may have been used.		Make sure that the detergent has no colourant.
White film on inside surface	Hard water minerals. To clean the interior, use a damp sponge with dishwasher detergent and wear rubber gloves. Never use any other cleaner than dishwasher detergent otherwise, it may cause foaming or suds.
There are rust stains on cutlery	The affected items are not corrosion resistant.	The items should be corrosion resistant.
Knocking noise in the dishwasher	A spray arm is knocking against an item in a basket	Interrupt the program and rearrange the items which are obstructing the spray arm.
Rattling noise in the dishwasher	Items of crockery are loose in the dishwasher.	Interrupt the program and rearrange the items of crockery.
Knocking noise in the water pipes	This may be caused by on-site installation or the cross-section of the piping.	This has no influence on the dishwasher function. If in doubt, contact a qualified plumber.
The dishes are not clean	The dishes were not loaded correctly.	See notes in “Loading & unloading your dishwasher”.
	The program was not powerful enough.	Select a more intensive program.
The dishes are not clean.	Not enough detergent was dispensed.	Use more detergent, or change your detergent.
	Items are blocking the movement of the spray arms.	Rearrange the items so that the spray can rotate freely.
	The filter combination is not clean or is not correctly fitted in the base of wash cabinet. This may cause the spray arm jets to get blocked.	Clean and/or fit the filter correctly. Clean the spray arm jets.
Cloudiness on glassware.	Combination of soft water and too much detergent.	Use less detergent if you have soft water and select a shorter cycle to wash the glassware and to get them clean.

• The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups.
• Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard!
• Long and / or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
• Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is important for good results and for reasonable consumption of energy.

NOTE:

Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the basket.

Removing the dishes

To prevent water dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we recommend that you empty the lower basket first, followed by the upper basket.

WARNING

Items will be hot! To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher for around 15 minutes after the program has ended.

Loading the upper basket

The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty). Position the dishes and cookware so that they will not get moved by the spray of water.

Loading the lower basket

We suggest that you place large items and the most difficult to clean items are to be placed into the lower basket: such as pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure below. It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.

The maximum diameter advised for plates in front of the detergent dispenser is of 19 cm, this not to hamper the opening of it.

Function Of The Rinse Aid And Detergent

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids.

WARNING

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

When to refill the rinse aid dispenser

Unless the rinse-aid warning light ( ✉ ) on the control panel is on, you can always estimate the amount from the color of the optical level indicator located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the indicator will be fully dark. The size of the dark dot decreases as the rinse-aid diminishes. You should never let the rinse aid level be less than 1/4 full.

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

3/4 full 1/2 full 1/4 full

Function of detergent

The chemical ingredients that compose the detergent are necessary to remove, crush and dispense all dirt out of the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.

WARNING

• Proper Use of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for dishwashers use. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.
Don't put powdered detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to wash dishes.

Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Keep dishwasher detergent out of the reach of children.

Filling The Rinse Aid Reservoir

3 Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

NOTE:

Clean up any spilled rinse aid with an absorbent cloth to avoid excessive foaming during the next wash.

Adjusting the rinse aid reservoir

Turn the rinse aid indicator dial to a number between 1 and 6. The higher the number, the more rinse aid the dishwasher uses. If the dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.

Filling The Detergent Dispenser

1 Press the release catch on the detergent dispenser to open the cover.

2 Add detergent into the larger cavity (A) for the main wash cycle. For more heavily soiled wash loads, also add some detergent into the smaller cavity (B) for the pre-wash cycle.
