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, Clarke degrees, 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. The water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using the water hardness dial and electronically, using the function buttons on the control panel. 12 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 13 Operating instructions a) Setting manually 1. 2. 3. 4.

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. 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. Replace on the cap tightly turning it clockwise until it stops with a click. 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. 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. Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal. 15 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 16 Operating instructions 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. Filling with rinse aid 1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A). 2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The maximum level for filling is indicated by “max”. Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill. 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. 16 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 17 Operating instructions 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 dose is factory set in position 4. 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. Top up the rinse aid when the indicator light on the control panel illuminates. 17 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 18 Operating instructions In 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. • When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note: - 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 teflon have a tendency to retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel items. 18 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 19 Operating instructions For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery/dishes are not suitable: •Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother-of-pearl handles •Plastic items that are not heat resistant are of limited suitability: • Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is specifically marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer. •Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant • Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently. •Bonded cutlery items or dishes • 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. •Pewter or copper items •Lead crystal glass •Steel items prone to rusting •Wooden platters •Items made from synthetic fibres • Some types of glass can become dull after a large number of washes. 19 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 20 Operating instructions Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes. The lower basket The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the spray arms can turn freely. The rows of prongs on the lower basket can be easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls. 20 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 21 Operating instructions 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. Forks and spoons should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards and the knives with their handles facing upwards. 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. For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grids provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it). To make the removal of cutlery easier it is possible to open the cutlery basket. To ensure that the cutlery basket cannot open when removed from the appliance always hold both parts of the two part handle. 1. Place the cutlery basket on a table or work surface. 2. Open the two part handle. 3. Remove the cutlery. 4. Close the two part handle. 21 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 22 Operating instructions The upper basket The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses. Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces. For taller items, the cup racks can be folded upwards. Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move. For glasses with long stems (according to the size and dimensions), upset the glass holder to the left-hand or right-hand position. In case you need to load dishes in the upper basket, the glass holder must be in the right-hand position. 22 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 23 Operating instructions In case that plates are loaded in the upper basket: load them starting from the rear positions of the basket; tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door. Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely. 23 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 24 Operating instructions 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. Maximum height of the dishes in upper basket lower basket With upper basket raised 20 cm 31 cm With upper basket lowered 24 cm 27 cm To move to the higher position proceed as follows: 1. Pull out the basket until it stops. 2. Carefully lift both sides upwards until the mechanism is engaged and the basket is stable. Attention! Never lift or lower the basket on one side only When the basket is in the higher position you will not be able to use the cup racks. To lower the basket to the original position proceed as follows: 1. Pull out the basket until it stops. 2. Carefully lift both sides upwards and then allow the mechanism to drop back down slowly, keeping hold of it. After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard. 24 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 25 Operating instructions Use of detergent Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers. We recommend the use of Finish detergents. Using no more than the correct amount of detergent contributes to reducing pollution. Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging. Fill with detergent 1. If the lid is closed: press release button (1). The lid springs open. 2. Fill the detergent dispenser (2) with detergent. The marking indicates the dosing levels: 20 = approximately 20 g of detergent 30 = approximately 30 g of detergent 3. All programmes with prewash need an additional detergent dose (5/10 g) that must be placed in the prewash detergent chamber (3). This detergent will take effect during the prewash phase. 4. Close the lid and press until it locks in place. 25 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 26 Operating instructions Different kinds of detergent Detergent tablets Detergent tablets from different manufactures dissolve at different rates. For this reason, some detergent tablets do not attain their full cleaning power during short washing programmes. Therefore please use long washing programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals. Concentrated detergent Modern detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively low-alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet form. Using 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with these concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes, as these washing programmes are specially matched to the dirtdissolving properties of the enzymes in concentrated detergents. It is for this reason that using 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents can achieve the same cleaning results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C washing programmes.

If the appliance is partially loaded and the dishes lightly soiled, the «prewash», «main wash», and «rinse» phases of the programme are shorter and the water consumption level is lower. If the appliance is fully loaded and the dishes heavily soiled, the «prewash», «main wash», and «rinse» phases of the programme are longer and the water consumption level is higher. During the AUTOMATIC programme the temperature of the main wash water is also automatically adjusted between 50°C and 65°C depending on the amount of soil on the dishes. (2) Intensive 70°C programme is foreseen with Care Plus function, which gives a greater degree of hygiene to dishes and glasses. In the last rinse the temperature will be held at over 65°C for at least 10/11 minutes. (3) 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 obtained only with the 65°C programmes and conventional detergents. To compensate the lower temperature, the duration of washing and drying have been extended. (4) The consumption values are intended as a guide and depends on the pressure and the temperature of the water and also by the variations of the power supply. The programme duration is visible in the digital display when the selection of the washing programme occurs. 28 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 29 Operating instructions Starting a washing programme 1.

Setting and starting the programme To select a programme, press the button of the programme you wish to select (see "Washing programmes" chart). The corresponding indicator light remains illuminated while the other programme buttons indicator lights turn off. In the digital display will appear, flashing, the running time (in minutes) of the programme that has been set. Close the dishwasher’s door, the programme will start automatically. Setting and starting the programme with the delay start Once the washing programme has been selected press the Delay start button, the corresponding indicator light will illuminate and 1h appears in the digital display. Press the delay start button until the number of hours desired (from 1 hour up to 19 hours) appear in the digital display. Close the dishwasher door, the countdown starts automatically and will decrease with steps of 1 hour. The opening of the door will not modify or interrupt the countdown. Once the delay start has elapsed the washing programme will start automatically. NOTE: The start of the programme or the countdown of the delay start will occur only after the closure of the door, until this moment it is possible to modify the set made. 29 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 30 Operating instructions NOTE: Once the washing programme has started, a point-shaped optical signal appears on the floor beneath the dishwasher’s door. This optical signal will remain illuminated for all the duration of the washing programme. If the appliance has been installed higher up with a furniture door mounted flush, the optical signal will be no longer visible. 5. To interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress Interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress ONLY if it’s absolutely necessary. Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is opened. Open the door carefully. Interrupt a washing programme in progress Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop. Close the door; the programme will start from the point at which it was interrupted. Cancel a washing programme in progress Open the dishwasher door and press simultaneously function buttons 2 and 3 for about 2 seconds, the indicator light of the button corresponding to the running programme starts flashing. After about 2 seconds the indicator lights of all the programme selection buttons will illuminate indicating that the running programme has been cancelled and that the machine has returned to setting mode. If a new washing programme is to be selected, check that there is detergent in the detergent dispenser. 6. To cancel a delay start in progress To cancel a delay start in progress you have to reset the dishwasher; follow the same instructions given in "Cancel a washing programme in progress". Cancelling a delay start involves also the cancelling of the set washing programme. In this case you have to set the washing programme again. 30 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 31 Operating instructions 7. End of the washing programme The dishwasher will automatically stop and an audible signal informs you of the end of the washing programme. NOTE: When the washing programme has ended, the optical signal on the floor beneath the dishwasher’s door will turn off. Open the dishwasher door only when this optical signal turns off. NOTE: The dishwasher’s drying system is provided with a device that allows air to circulate inside the dishwasher to prevent residual steam recondensing on the dishes as water droplets. Once the washing programme has ended this device operates intermittently for other 20 minutes, as long as the dishwasher is switched on. If the On/Off button is pressed or the door is opened during these 20 minutes, the device will be automatically cancelled. Open the dishwasher’s door, the End of programme light is illuminated. In the digital display appears 0, only in this case the programme has ended. Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button. Leave the dishwasher’s door ajar and wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved. 8. Unloading the dishwasher Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from the appliance. 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. Water may appear on the sides and the door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become cooler than the dishes. When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off. 31 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 32 Operating instructions 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 the use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner every 3 months or run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent. Regular use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner cleans inaccessible parts, eliminates unpleasant food odours and helps prevent the build-up of limescale. Cleaning the filters The filters must be checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will degrade the washing result. Important! Before cleaning the filters ensure that the machine is switched off. 1. Open the door, remove the lower basket. 2. The dishwasher filter system comprises a coarse filter (A), a microfilter (B) and a flat filter (C). Unlock the filter system using the handle on the microfilter, and remove. 3. Turn the handle about 1/4 a turn anticlockwise and remove. 32 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 33 Operating instructions 4. Take hold of the coarse filter (A) by the handle with the hole and remove from the microfilter (B). 5. Clean all filters thoroughly under running water. 6. Remove the flat filter (C) from the base of the washing compartment and clean both faces thoroughly. 7. Put the flat filter (C) back in the base of the washing compartment. 8. Place the coarse filter (A) in the microfilter (B) 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. Attention! Under no circumstances may the dishwasher be used without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results. 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 cocktail stick. 33 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 34 Operating instructions 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. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any unpleasant smells. 3. Leave the inside of the machine clean. 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. 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. 34 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 35 Operating instructions Something not working Certain problems are due to the lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved with the help of the instructions given here, without calling out an engineer.

Remove all packaging before positioning the machine. If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain. Building-in This dishwasher is designed to be fitted under a kitchen counter or worksurface. Attention! Carefully follow the instructions on the enclosed template for building in the dishwasher and fitting the furniture panel. 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. The dishwasher incorporates adjustable feet to allow the adjustment of the height. 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. 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. If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level. 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). 43 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 44 Installation instructions 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" inch gas thread spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Pressblock. 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 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. This appliance has been fitted with safety features which will prevent the water used in the appliance from returning back into the drinking water system. This appliance complies with the applicable plumbing regulations. 44 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 45 Installation instructions Water inlet hose with safety valve 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. Please take care when installing the water inlet hose: - The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the double-walled water inlet hose. Do not immerse the water inlet hose or the safety valve in water. - If water inlet hose or the safety valve is damaged, remove the mains plug immediately. - A water inlet hose with safety valve must only be replaced by a specialist or by the Service Force Centre. - Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it is never higher than the bottom edge of the safety valve. 45 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 46 Installation instructions Water outlet hose connection The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following ways: 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. 2. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal diameter 4 cm. The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the dishwasher. 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. 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. 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 therefore advise you to remove it. 46 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 47 Installation instructions Electrical connection WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. The manufacturer declines any responsibility should this safety measure not be observed. If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for the socket, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fitted. Important The wires on the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green and Yellow - Earth Blue - Neutral Brown - Live If you fit your own plug, the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not correspond with the markings identifying the terminals in your plug. Proceed as follows: 1. Connect the Green and Yellow (earth) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or the earth symbol or coloured green and yellow. 2. Connect the Blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured black. 3. Connect the Brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red. 47 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 48 The plug moulded onto the lead incorporates a 13amp BSI362 fuse. Only ASTA or BSI fuses should be used. The plug must not be used if the fuse cover/carrier is lost. The cover/carrier is indicated by the coloured insert at the base of the plug. A replacement cover/carrier must be obtained from your local Service Force Centre. To isolate the dishwasher from mains, remove the mains plug. Important! The plug must still be accessible after the appliance has been installed. The appliance should not be connected to the electrical supply by means of an extension cable. In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced, please contact your local Service Force Centre. Warning! A cut off plug inserted into a 13 amp socket is a serious safety (shock) hazard. Ensure that it is disposed of safely. 48 152950 78/0en 8-03-2006 15:28 Pagina 49 Hints for test centres Hints for test centres Testing in accordance with EN 60704 must be carried out with appliance fully loaded and using the test programme (see "Washing programmes" chart).
