PRIOR USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
A. Set the water softener
B. Add 1.5Kg dishwasher salt and then full fill the salt container with water
C. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
D. Fill in detergent
A. Water Softener
The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness dial. The water softener is designed to
remove minerals and salts from the water, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the
operation of the appliance. The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is.
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water
Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.
Adjusting Salt Consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjustment in the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness
of the water used. This is intended to optimise and customise the level o f salt consumption.
Please follow the steps below for adjustment in salt consumption.
1. Unscrew the cap from the salt container.
2. There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see figure on the
side), if necessary, rotate the ring in the anticlockwise direction from
the "-" Setting toward the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the
water being used. It is recommended that adjustments should be
made in accordance with the following scheme:

B. Loading the Salt Into the Softener
Always use the salt intended for use with dishwasher.
The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as explained in the following:
Attention
• Only use salt specifically designed for the use in dishwashers! Every other type of salt not specifically
designed for the use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of
damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable
for any damages caused.
• Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programs. This will prevent any
grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for
any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
Open

2
A. Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container (1)
B. Use a funnel to fill the salt container with about 1.5kg of dishwasher salt, then please remove the salt
funnel from all production.
C. Full fill the salt container with water.It is normal for a small amount of water to comeout of the salt
container (2).
D. After filling the container, screw the cap tightly back clockwise.
E. Usually, the salt warning light will stop being illuminated within 2-6 days after the salt container has
been filled with salt.
F. Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (We
suggest to use the soak or rapid program).
Otherwise the filter system, pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged by salty
water. This is out of warranty.
Note:
1. The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on.
Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the salt
container is filled.
If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some Models), you can estimate when to fill the
salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher has run.
2. If there are spills of the salt, a soak or a rapid program should be run to remove the excessive salt.
37
C. Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
Rinse Aid Dispenser
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. 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 110ml.
Function of Rinse Aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free
drying.
Attention
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
If there is no rinse-aid warning light in the control panel, you can estimate the amount from the colour of
the optical level indicator C located next to the cap.
When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole indicator will be dark.
As the rinse-aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid level fall
1 / 4 full.
As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black
dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as
illustrated below.
C (Rinse-Aid indicator)

38
1. To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow
and lift it out.
1
2. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.
2
3. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and
turning it to the closed (right) arrow.
NOTE
Clean up any rinse aid spilled while during filling with an absorbent
cloth to avoid excessive foaming during the next wash. Don't forget
to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.
3
Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always start with
the dispenser set on "4". If spots and poor drying are a problem,
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 show spots, adjust the dial to the next higher
lever until your dishes are spot-free. The recommended setting is
"4". (Factory value is "4".)
NOTE
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the
dishes after washing.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish
film on glassware or knife blades.
39
Adjust lever
(Rinse)
D. Function of Detergent
Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out of
the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.
Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents
1. With phosphate and with chlorine
2. With phosphate and without chlorine
3. Without phosphate and without chlorine
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of phosphate
is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when the hardness of water is
only 6 °dH. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard water often white spots appear
on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach better results. Detergents without
chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not be removed completely. In this case
please choose a program with a higher temperature.
Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:
• conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
• low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
The use of "normal" washing programs in combination with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and
is good for your dishes; these wash programs are specifically matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of
the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason "normal" wash programs in which
concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using
"intensive" programs.
Detergent Tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets
cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programs. Therefore please use long
programs when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
Detergent Dispenser
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in
the wash cycle table. Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than Conventional dishwasher.
Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items
need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get
damp and will not dissolve properly.
Amount of Detergent to Use
Push latch to open
40
NOTE:
• If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid will spring open.
• Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle.
• Only use branded detergent aid for dishwasher.
WARNING:
Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children.
Proper Use of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for the use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.
Don't put powdered detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.
Fill in Detergent
Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent. The marking
indicates the dosing levels , as illustrated on the right:
A. The place of main wash cycle detergent placed, "MIN "
means approximately 20g of detergent.
B. The place of pre-wash cycle detergent placed,
approximately 5g of detergent
6
Please observe the manufacturers dosing and storage
Recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent
dose in the pre-wash detergent chamber. This detergent will
take effect during the pre-wash phase.
NOTE:
• You find information about the amount of detergent for the single programme on the last page.
• Please aware, that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of water differences are
possible.
• Please observe the manufacturer's recommendations on the detergent packaging.
41
How To Use The 3IN1 Function
Your dishwasher has a 3in1 function which needs no salt and rinse aid but a 3In1 tablet.
This dishwasher comes with a 3in1 tablet container as an accessory.
NOTE
Only the 3in1 function (for the program: intensive/Normal/Eco.) Can be used with 3in1 tablets.
If you use 3in1 tablets in other programs, the appliance will not achieve a good performance.
1. The figure below shows how to hang the 3in1 tablet
container on the upper basket.
2. Rotate the upper sprayer and change the location of the
container to ensure the upper sprayer is not obstructed
by the 3in 1 tablet container. Refer to the figure below
for reference.
3. Put the 3in1 tablet into the container, then start the 3in1
program.
NOTE
When using 3in1 combination / compact Detergents, please pay attention to make sure that the size of the
combination detergents fits to the dispenser, so that combination detergents can be easily put into the
dispenser, and the dispenser would not be broken.

Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down around 15
minutes before removing from the appliance.
Open the dishwasher's door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes. In this
way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.
• Unloading the dishwasher
It is normal that the dishwasher is wet inside.
Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one. This will avoid water dripping from the upper
Basket onto the dishes in the lower one.
WARNING:
It is dangerous to open the door when washing, because the hot water may scald you.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Filtering System
The filter prevents larger remnants of food or other objects from getting inside the pum.
The residues may block the filter, in this case they must be removed.
The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a flat (Main filter)
And a microfilter (Fine filter).
Main filter 1
Food and soil particles trapped in this filter are
pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and
washed down to drain.
Coarse filter 2
Larger items, such as pieces of bones or glass, that could
block the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To
remove the items caught by the filter, gently squeeze the
tap on the top of this filter and lift out.
Fine filter 3
This filter holds soil and food residues in the sump area
and prevents it from being redeposit on the dishes
during wash cycle.

Filter assembly
The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recycled during the
cycle. For best performance and results, the filter must be cleaned regularly. For this reason, it is a good
idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the
semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter device, pull the cup handle in the
upward direction.
WARNING:
• The dishwasher must never be used without the filters.
• Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage
dishes and utensils.
Open
STEP 1: turn the filter in anti-clockwise direction, then lift it up.
STEP 2: lift the Main filter up

STEP 3: lift the Fine filter up
NOTE
When following this procedure from step1 to step 3, the filter system
will be removed; when following it from Step 3 to Step 1, the filter
system will be installed.

Remarks:
• Inspect the filters for blocking after every time the dishwasher has been used.
• By unscrewing the coarse filter, you can remove the filter system. Remove any food remnants and
clean the filters under running water.
NOTE: The entire filter assembly should be cleaned once a week.
Cleaning the Filter
To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Reassemble the filter parts as shown in
the figures on the last page and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning it in its seat and
pressing downwards.
WARNING:
When cleaning the filters, don't knock on them. Otherwise, the filters could be contorted and the
performance of the dishwasher could be decreased.
Caring for the Dishwasher
The control panel can be cleaned by using a lightly dampened cloth. After cleaning, make sure to dry it
thoroughly. For the exterior, use a good appliance polish wax. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or
harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
Cleaning The Door
To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft
warm, damp cloth. To avoid penetration of water into the door lock
and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.
WARNING:
• Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel as it may damage the door lock and electrical
components.
• Abrasive agents or some paper towels should not be used because of the risk of scratching or leaving
spots on the stainless steel surface.
Protect Against Freezing
Please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter. Every time after washing cycles, please
operate as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Cut off the electrical power to the dishwasher.
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)
Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up water in the sump.
NOTE: If your dishwasher cannot work because of the ice, please contact authorized after sales service.

Cleaning the Spray Arms
It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly in
order to remove the accumulation of scale from
the hard water and thus prevent blocking of spray
arm jets and bearings. We Suggest to poke the
blocked spray arm jets with a needle to ensure
good washing effect.
Unscrew
How to keep your dishwasher in shape
• After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly open so that
moisture and odours 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 odours 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.
