Prior to using for the first time
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
Setting electronically
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply
with the installation instructions
(the dishwasher must be switched off)
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
The dishwasher is factory set at level 3.
3. Set the water softener
1. Press function push buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously .
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill
with salt
2. While keeping the push buttons 1 and 2 pressed switch on
the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push button.
The On/Off indicator light comes on.
At the same time, the indicator lights of push buttons 1 and

5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
Setting the water softener
3. Press push button 1, the indicator light of push button 2
turns off, while the indicator light of push button 1 remains
fixed for about 5 seconds, after this it starts flashing
indicating the current level of the water softener.
The current level is indicated by the number of flashes
made by the indicator light of push button 1, that alternates
5 seconds off with a number of flashes, this for about 60
seconds.
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 salts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German
degrees, French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).
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.
The water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using
the water hardness switch and electronically, using the function
push buttons on the control panel.
If your water is level 1 it is already soft and therefore there
is no need to use salt.
Example:
1 flash
=
2 flashes =
3 flashes =
4 flashes =
5 flashes =
level 1
level 2
level 3
level 4
level 5
4. To change the level, press push button 1. Each time the
push button is pressed the level changes.
Example:
if the current level is 3, by pressing push button 1 once,
level 4 is selected.
if the current level is 5, by pressing push button 1 once,
level 1 is selected.
The indicator light of push button 1 remains off for about 5
seconds after which it starts flashing indicating the new
level selected.
Setting manually
1. Open the dishwasher door.
2. Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.
3. Turn the water hardness switch to position 1 or 2 (see
table).
4. Replace the lower basket.
The dishwasher is factory set at position 2.
5. To memorise the new level, switch off the dishwasher by
pressing the On/Off push button.

Filling with salt
Rinse aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring
thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. The
dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds about 110
ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing
programmes, depending upon the dosage setting.
Special salt can be added in one of two ways:
●
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains
salt, the detergent including the salt is placed in the
detergent compartment.
- In this case the water softener must manually be set to 1
and electronically to 1 to ensure that the special salt is
taken from the detergent container only.
Rinse aid can be added in one of two ways:
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains
rinse aid, the detergent including the rinse aid is placed in
the detergent compartment.
- In this case the rinse aid compartment must be empty
and the rinse aid indicator light deactivated.
If in the rinse aid dispenser there is still rinse aid you
must wait until it has finished before using detergent that
contains rinse aid.
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent and rinse aid
separately, the rinse aid is to be put into the rinse aid
dispenser.
- In this case the rinse aid dosage must be set in position
from 1 to 6 (see "Adjusting the dose") and the rinse aid
indicator light activated.
If you are using dishwasher detergent and salt separately,
the special salt is to be put into the salt container.
- In this case the water softener must manually be set to 1
or 2 and electronically between 1 and 5 (depending on
the water hardness in your area) to ensure that the
special salt is taken from the salt container only.
Only use salt specifically designed for use in
dishwashers.
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 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.
Filling with rinse aid
(Rinse aid dispenser type A)
1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A).
To fill:
2. Fill with rinse aid exactly up to the level marked "MAX".
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. Using the funnel provided,
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. Screw on the cap tightly
turning it clockwise until it
stops with a click.
BR07
BR14
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Top up the rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light on the
control panel illuminates.
SR14
The salt container will require topping up periodically. You are
reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel
which comes on when the salt has finished.
Adjusting the dose
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).
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.
Increase the dose if there are
drops of water or lime spots
on the dishes after washing.
The dose is factory set in
position 4.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with
salt, this is quite normal.
Reduce it if there are sticky
whitish streaks on the
dishes.
BR09

Filling with rinse aid
(Rinse aid dispenser type B)
To deactivate the rinse aid indicator
light proceed as follows:
1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.
(the dishwasher must be switched off)
1. Press function push buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously.
2. Fill with rinse aid exactly up to the level indicator marked
"max".
2. While keeping the function push buttons 1 and 2 pressed
switch on the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push
button.
The On/Off indicator light comes on.
At the same time, the indicator lights of push buttons
1 and 2 start flashing.
3. Press function push button 2, the corresponding indicator
light keeps flashing while the indicator light of push button
1 turns off. At the same time the rinse aid indicator light
starts to flash.
BR01
BR13
4. Press push button 2 again, the rinse aid indicator light turns
off, this means that the rinse aid indicator light has been
deactivated.
Ensure the lid is closed after every refill.
Top up the rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light on the
control panel illuminates.
5. To memorise the operation, switch off the dishwasher by
pressing the On/Off push button.
To reactivate the rinse aid indicator light follow the same
process until the rinse aid indicator light starts to flash.
Adjusting the dose
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the
dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (C)
(position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on
the dishes after washing.
The dose is factory set in
position 5.
Reduce it if there are sticky
whitish streaks on the
dishes.
BR02
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.

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 large left-overs.
- 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.
For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery/dishes
are of limited suitability:
are not suitable:
- Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or
mother-of-pearl handles
- Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is specifically
marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.
- Plastic items that are not heat resistant
- Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently
- Older cutlery with glued parts that is not
temperature resistant
- Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour
during washing. Left-overs, 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.
- Bonded cutlery items or dishes
- Pewter or copper items
- Lead crystal glass
- Some types of glass can become dull after a large number
of washes
- Steel items subject to rusting
- Wooden platters
- Items made from synthetic fibres

Use of detergent
Detergent tablets
Only use detergents specifically designed for use in
dishwashers.
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different
speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot
develop their full cleaning power during short programmes.
Therefore please use normal programmes with prewash when
using detergent tablets.
Using no more then the correct amount of detergent
contributes to reducing pollution.
Prior to the start of a wash programme. The detergent is
released during the washing phase.
Do not place the tablets in the tub or in the cutlery basket
as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets
should be placed in the detergent dispenser.
Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage
recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
Fill with detergent
Concentrated detergent
(Detergent dispenser type A)
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents
can be split into two basic types:
1. If the lid is closed: press release button (1).
The lid springs open.
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.
- low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.
2. Fill the detergent dispenser (2) with detergent.
The marking indicates the dosing levels:
20 = approximately 20 ml of detergent
30 = approximately 30 ml of detergent
The use of 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with
concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your
dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the
dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated
detergent. For this reason 50°C wash programmes in which
concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same
results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C
programmes.
Use of "3 in 1" combi detergent tablets
General advice
DE19
These products are tablets with combined detergent/rinse-aid
and salt functions.
DE22
3. All programmes with prewash need an additional detergent
dose (5/10 g) that must be placed in the prewash detergent
chamber (3).
1. Before using these products you should first check that the
water hardness in your supply is compatible with the use of
these products as per the detergent manufacturers (on the
product packaging).
4. Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
2. These products should be strictly used according to the
detergent manufacturers instructions.
3. If you encounter problems when using 3 in 1 products for
the first time then please contact the detergent
manufacturers care line (the telephone number is given on
the product packaging).
Fill with detergent
(Detergent dispenser type B)
1. Open the dispenser by pulling the catch (A).
The lid springs open.
Special advice
When using combination products, the rinse-aid and salt
indicators are no longer useful. It may be helpful therefore to
switch the rinse aid off - please note that only some
dishwashers have this facility - and select the lowest possible
setting for water hardness.
2. Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent.
The marking indicates the dosing levels:
Min = approximately 15 g of detergent
Max = approximately 30 g of detergent
For more information please refer to the instruction manual.
If you decide to turn back to the use of the standard detergent
system we advise that you:
DE17
DE02
3. Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
4. All programmes with prewash need an additional detergent
dose (5/10 g) that must be placed over the lid of the
dispenser.

(1) Ideal for washing crockery and cutlery of breakfast and dinner (fresh soil).
Characterised by a duration.
This is the perfect daily programme, made to meet the needs of a family of 4 persons who only wish to load breakfast
and dinner crockery and cutlery.
(2) Testing programme for EN 50242 (see "Hints for Test Centres). This programme, developed for the use of detergents with
enzymes, allows you to achieve, with reduced consumption of energy the same cleaning results that would otherwise be

illuminated) the dishwasher door is opened or the On/Off
push button is pressed, the running programme is
automatically cancelled and the machine returns to
setting mode (in this case it is possible to select a new
programme without cancelling the previous)
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push
button, the On/Off indicator light turns off.
Hot steam may escape from the appliance when opening
the door immediately after the end of the programme,
therefore, open the door carefully.
6. Interrupting/cancelling a washing

Change or interrupt a washing programme in
progress ONLY if it’s absolutely necessary
To interrupt a washing programme in
progress
Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is
opened. There is risk of scalding. Open the door
carefully.
● Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop.
Close the door; the programme will start from the
point in which it was interrupted.
● pressing the On/Off (in this case all the indicator
lights turn off). Press the On/Off push button again;
the programme will start from the point in which it was
interrupted.
Unloading the dishwasher
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should
therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from
the appliance.
Leave the dishes in the dishwasher for approx. 15
minutes, with the door ajar, after the end of programme
so that they dry better and will be cooler.
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.
To cancel a washing programme in
progress
A programme in progress can be cancelled at any time.
Press for about 3 seconds the push button of the running
programme until all indicator lights are off.
Only the On/Off indicator light will remain illuminated.
It is now possible to select a new washing programme.
7. Setting/cancelling the "Delay start"
When the washing programme has finished, it is
recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the
water tap turned off.
The setting of the delay start occurs before selecting
the programme.
Setting the "Delay start"
Press the "delay start" push button until the indicator light
corresponding to the chosen hours flashes (3, 6 or 9
hours).
Press the push button corresponding to the required
washing programme; the indicator light corresponding to
the programme illuminates and the phase indicator lights
for that programme start flashing.

Maintenance and cleaning
Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel
with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral
detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or
solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse
aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.
We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash
programme without dishes using detergent.
To ensure a correct
working of the dishwasher,
NEVER try to remove the
upper spray arm.
If residues of soil have
clogged the holes in the
upper spray arm, remove
them with a toothpick.
MA33
Cleaning the filters
The filters in the base of the washing compartment are to a
large extent self-cleaning. Nevertheless the filters should be
checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will
degrade the washing result.
Prolonged periods of non-operation
If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are
advised to:
1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.
2. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
3. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any
unpleasant smells.
4. Leave the inside of the machine clean.
1. Open the door, remove
the lower basket.
2. The dishwasher filter
system comprises a
coarse/fine filter (A/B), a
microfilter (C) and a flat
filter (D).
Unlock the filter system
using the handle on the
microfilter, and remove.
3. Turn the handle about
1
/4 a turn anticlockwise
and remove.
Frost precautions
Avoid placing the machine in a location where the temperature
is below 0°C. If this is unavoidable, empty the machine, close
the appliance door, disconnect the water inlet pipe and empty
it.
MA32
Moving the machine
If you have to move the machine (moving house etc....):
1. Unplug it.
2. Turn the water tap off.
3. Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.
4. Pull the machine out together with the hoses.
Avoid over tilting the machine during transportation.
MA36
4. Take hold of the coarse/fine filter (A/B) by the handle with
the hole and remove from the microfilter (C).
5. Clean all filters thoroughly under running water.
6. Remove the flat filter (D) from the base of the washing
compartment and clean both faces thoroughly.
MA31
7. Put the flat filter back in the base of the washing
compartment.
8. Place the coarse/fine filter in the microfilter and press
together.
9. Put the filter combination in place and lock by turning the
handle clockwise to the stop. During this process ensure
that the flat filter does not protrude above the base of the
washing compartment.
Under no circumstances may the dishwasher be used
without filters.
Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will
produce poor washing results.

Installation instructions
Any electrical and/or plumbing work required to install
this appliance should be carried out by a qualified
electrician and/or plumber or competent person.
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled
when it is being connected up.
Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been
used in another appliance.
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a
drain.
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.
Fitting under a counter
Water outlet hose connection
(kitchen worktop or sink)
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following
ways:
By removing the machine’s worktop, you can install it under a
close fitting sink unit or a pre-existing top, providing the
dimensions of the recess correspond to those shown in the
picture.
2. Hooked over the edge of the sink using the special curved
plastic guide provided.
- 600
3. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal
diameter 4 cm.
820
570
1. To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the underside of the
work surface. This will prevent waste water from the sink
running into the machine.
The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm
(minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the
dishwasher.
600
The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the
dishwasher
IN05
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent
or slow down the discharge of water.
Proceed as follows:
Remove the machine’s worktop by unscrewing the two rear
retaining screws, pull from the front and slide out the rear
slots, lifting the worktop.
The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is
draining as this could cause the water to siphon back into the
machine.
Insert the machine after adjusting height and levelling with the
adjustable feet. When inserting the machine, ensure that the
water inlet and drain hoses are not kinked or squashed.
If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2
metres and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the
diameter of the hose provided.
If the dishwasher is later used as a free-standing appliance,
the original worktop must be re-mounted.
The plinth on free-standing appliances is not adjustable.
Levelling
Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of
the door.
When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will not catch
on either side of the cabinet.
CS18
If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the
adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.
Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for
connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the
diameter of the hose provided.
Attention!
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 advise you therefore to remove it.
Water supply connections
This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 50°) 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.
The dishwasher must not be connected to open hot water
appliances or instantaneous water heaters.
The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that prevent the
wash water returning into the drinking water system and
comply with the applicable plumbing regulations.
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the
technical specifications. Your local Water Authority will advise
you on the average mains pressure in your area.
The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be
turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation.
33
To isolate the dishwasher from mains, remove the mains plug.
Electrical connection
Information concerning the electrical connection is given on the
rating plate on the edge of the dishwasher’s door on the right.
Important!
The plug must still be accessible after the appliance
has been installed.
Before plugging the appliance into the wall socket, make sure
that:
In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced,
please contact your local consumer services
department.
1. The mains voltage and current rating at the site of
installation match the nominal voltage and current rating
given on the rating plate.
Safety standards require the appliance to be
earthed.
The manufacture accepts no liability for failure to
observe the above safety precautions.
2. The meter, fuses, mains power supply and wall socket can
all take the maximum load required. Make sure that the
socket and plug are compatible without having to use any
type of adaptor. If necessary, have the domestic wiring
system socket replaced.
