Set the water softener The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, 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. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German degrees (°dH), French degrees (°TH) and mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit for the hardness of water). 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.

Press the On/Off button. The dishwasher must be in setting mode. 2. Press simultaneously and keep pressed buttons 2 and 3, until the lights of buttons 1, 2 and 3 start flashing. 4. To change the level, press button 1. Each time the button is pressed the level changes. (For the selection of the new level see the chart).

All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilt, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion. To fill: 1. Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise. 2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time). 3. Pour in the salt until the container is full. 4. Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket. 5. Replace the cap tightly turning it clockwise. Do not worry if water overflows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal. The salt indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has been replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains switched on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then this can take longer. The function of the machine is not affected. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 14 14 electrolux first use Filling with rinse aid Rinse aid ensures thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse. According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage). 1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A). The dose is factory set in position 4. 2. Add the rinse aid in the container. The maximum level for filling is indicated by "max". Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades. 3. Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill. The dispenser holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for between 16 and 40 dishwashing cycles, depending upon the dosage setting. Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash. Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 15 daily use electrolux 15 Daily use ● Check if it’s necessary to refill with dishwasher salt or rinse aid ● Load cutlery and dishes into the dishwasher. ● Fill with dishwasher detergent . ● Select a wash programme suitable for the cutlery and dishes. ● Start the wash programme. Loading cutlery and dishes Sponges, household cloths and any object that can absorb water may not be washed in the dishwasher. ● Before loading the dishes, you should: - Remove all left over food and debris. - Soften remnants of burnt food in pans ● When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note: - Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the spray arms . - Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with the opening downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base. - Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other. - To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch. - Lay small objects in the cutlery basket. ● Plastic items and pans with non stick coatings have a tendency to retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel items. ● Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 16 16 electrolux daily use For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery and dishes are not suitable: - Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother-ofpearls handles. - Plastic items that are not heat resistant. - Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant. - Bonded cutlery items or dishes. - Pewter or copper items. - Lead crystal glass. - Steel items prone to rusting. - Wooden platters. - Items made from synthetics fibres. are of limited suitability: - Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is specially marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer. - Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently. - Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour during washing: Residues, e.g. egg white, egg yolk and mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore always clean left-overs from silver immediately, if it is not to be washed straight after use. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 17 daily use electrolux 17 The lower basket The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. A serving plate can be placed in front of the cutlery basket. The rear plate rack can be easily folded down to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls. Folding down the right plate rack will create another plate rack that allows you to load deep plates and bowls. 1. Lift the two plate racks slightly at the back and fold them inward making them cross over one another. The left plate rack can be folded down and the width can be adjusted. ● To fold them down, lift the two plate racks slightly at the back and fold them onwards making them cross over one another. ● To set the width: pull the right-hand plate rack upwards at the back until it disengages, then pull it towards the back out of the front guide. Insert the plate rack in the other guide and press it down at the back until it snaps in. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 18 18 electrolux daily use The cutlery basket 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. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives. To make loading of the cutlery basket easier, lower the cutlery basket handle (fig.2). fig. 2 Forks and spoons should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards and the knives with their handles facing upwards (fig.1). fig. 1 For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grids. If the size and dimensions of the cutlery do not allow the use of the grids, they can be easily hidden (fig. 3). fig. 3 If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the handles facing upwards. Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking together. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 19 daily use electrolux 19 The cutlery basket is in two parts which can be separated to give greater loading flexibility. To separate the two parts, slide them horizontally in opposite directions and pull them apart (fig. 4). fig. 4 To reassemble, reverse the procedure. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 20 20 electrolux daily use The upper basket The upper basket is designed for saucers, salad bowls, cups, glasses, pots and lids. Glass holders For glasses with long stems and tall cylindrical glasses, fold up the glass holder. (Top picture) To unload or when not needed, fold the glass holder back to the right. (Middle picture). Glasses can also be placed over the bars pointing up. (Bottom picture). Adjustable cup racks ● Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces. ● The cup racks can be folded up out of the way for tall crockery items. ● The cup racks can also be fixed in an intermediate position. Lay or hang glasses with the stems in the slots in the cup racks. Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 21 daily use electrolux 21 Adjusting the height of the upper basket If washing very large plates you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position. The adjustment of the height of the upper basket is possible also when the basket has been loaded. Moving the upper basket to the higher / lower position: 1. Pull out the basket completely. 2. Raise the upper basket as far as it will go and then lower it vertically. The upper basket will latch into the lower or higher position. After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 22 22 electrolux daily use Maximum plate sizes with upper basket in higher position. 18 32 25 Arrangement of large plates in the lower basket Maximum plate sizes with upper basket in lower position. 20 30 25 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 23 daily use electrolux 23 Use of detergent 20 = approximately 20 g of detergent 30 = approximately 30 g of detergent Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers.

Remove all packaging before positioning the machine. If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain. This dishwasher is designed to be fitted under a kitchen counter or worksurface. No further openings for the venting of the dishwasher are required, but only to let the water fill and drain hose and power supply cable pass through. During all operations that involve accessibility to internal components the dishwasher has to be unplugged. When inserting the machine, ensure that the water inlet hose, the drain hose and the supply cable are not kinked or squashed. Fixing to the adjacent units The dishwasher must be secured against tilting. Therefore make sure that the counter it is fixed under, is suitably secured to a fixed structure (adjacent kitchen units cabinets, wall). Water supply connections This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 60°) or cold water. Nevertheless we advise you a cold water supply. A hot water supply is not always efficient with very soiled crockery as it shortens the washing programmes a lot. For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine’s supply hose is designed to screw onto a 3/4" gas thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Press-block. The water pressure must be within the limits given in the "Technical data". Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average mains pressure in your area. The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled when it is being connected. The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation by means of the locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. (Attention! NOT all models of dishwashers have fill and drain hoses provided with locknut. In this case, this kind of facility is not possible). If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. DO NOT use connection hoses which have previously been used for an old appliance. Installation of an IRG filter is recommended on the construction side. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 40 40 electrolux installation ● Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it is never higher than the bottom edge of the safety valve.

Do not immerse the water inlet hose or the safety valve in water. N 762+3 ● 105 Please take care when installing the water inlet hose: G 570 After connecting the double-walled water inlet hose, the safety valve is next to the tap. Therefore the water inlet hose is only under pressure while the water is running. If the water inlet hose starts to leak during this operation, the safety valve cuts off the running water. Water outlet hose connection The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water. The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is draining as this could cause the water to syphon back into the machine. The waste connection must be at a maximum height of 70 cm from the ground. N 600 Water inlet hose with safety valve 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 41 installation electrolux 41 When connecting the drain hose to an under sink trap spigot, the entire plastic membrane (A) must be removed. Failure to remove all the membrane will result in food particles building up over time eventually blocking the dishwasher drain hose spigot Our appliances are supplied with a security device to protect against the return of dirty water back into the machine. If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve" incorporated this can prevent the correct draining of your dishwasher. We therefore advise you to remove it. Electrical connection Safety standards require the appliance to be earthed. Prior to using the appliance for the first time, ensure that the rated voltage and type of supply on the rating plate match that of the supply where the appliance is to be installed. The fuse rating is also to be found on the rating plate. Always plug the mains plug into a correctly installed shockproof socket. Multi-way plugs, connectors and extension cables must not be used. This could constitute a fire hazard through overheating. If necessary, have the domestic wiring system socket replaced. In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced, contact your local Service Force centre. The plug must be accessible after the appliance has been installed. Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the cable. Always pull the plug. The manufacturer accepts no liability for failure to observe the above safety precautions. 117986 48/0en 18-05-2007 9:24 Pagina 42 42 electrolux installation 1.
