>POM< for polyoxymethylene, e.g. plastic clips.
Economical and
ecological dishwashing
Cardboard packaging is manufactured from recycled paper
and should be deposited in the waste paper collection for
recycling.
As and when you cease to use your dishwasher and withdraw
it from service, your should render it unserviceable before
having it disposed of.
Warning! Children at play could lock themselves in your
dishwasher or otherwise endanger their lives. Therefore cut off
the power supply cable and make the door closing device
unusable to prevent children from being trapped inside.
●
Ensure that the water softener is correctly adjusted.
●
Do not pre-wash under running water.
●
Select the wash programme to suit the nature and degree of
the soiling on the dishes.
●
Do not use more detergent, special salt and rinse aid than is
recommended in these operating instructions and by the
manufacturer of the respective product.
Prior to using for the first time
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
Only for dishwasher models with salt refilling
indicator light:
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply
with the installation instructions
If the water softener has been adjusted on level 1 and no salt
is being used, the salt refilling indicator light on the control
panel, will always remain illuminated when the machine is
switched on and the door closed.
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill
with salt
Water softener adjustment
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
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 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.
AA01
Adjustment on the machine
The dishwasher is factory set at level 2.
If your water is below level 1 it is already soft and therefore
there is no need to use salt. In this case adjust the water
softener on level 1 without using salt.

Filling with salt
Rinse aid
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 (except the Rinse and Hold programme).
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Filling with rinse aid
1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.
5. Screw on the cap tightly.
2. Fill with rinse aid exactly up to the level indicator marked
"max".
SR14
The salt container will require topping up periodically.
According to the model of dishwasher, you are reminded
of this by:
A) The salt cap has a refill indicator window in the centre.
A green float is clearly visible when there is salt inside the
container and almost disappears when the salt has finished
reminding you to add salt.
BR01
BR13
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
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).
SR11
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on
the dishes after washing.
B) A salt indicator light on the control panel will come 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.
The dose is factory set in position 5.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with
salt, this is quite normal.
BR02

Top up with rinse aid when:
Use of "3 in 1" combi detergent tablets
1. The indicator (B) becomes clear.
General advice
2. Only for dishwasher models
with rinse aid indicator
light:
When the rinse aid indicator
light on the control panel
illuminates.
These products are tablets with combined detergent/rinse-aid
and salt functions.
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).
2. These products should be strictly used according to the
detergent manufacturers instructions.
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.
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during BR03
filling with an absorbent cloth to
avoid excess foaming during the next wash.
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).
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.
Special advice
When using combination products, the rinse-aid and salt
indicators are no longer useful (please note that only some
dishwashers have these options). Select the lowest possible
setting for water hardness.
Use of detergent
Only use detergents specifically designed for use in
dishwashers.
Using no more then the correct amount of detergent
contributes to reducing pollution.
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:
Prior to the start of a wash programme (not for the "Rinse and
Hold" programme). The detergent is released during the
washing phase.
●
Refill both the salt container and rinse aid dispenser.
Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage
recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
●
Switch the water hardness setting to the highest possible
position and run a normal washing programme without a
load.
Fill with detergent
●
Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the
hardness of the water in your area.
1. Open the dispenser by pulling the catch (A).
The lid springs open.
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
Concentrated detergent
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents
can be split into two basic types:
3. Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.
- low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.
4. All programmes with prewash need an additional detergent
dose (5 g) that must be placed over the lid of the dispenser.
This detergent will take effect during the prewash phase.
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.
Detergent tablets
DE17
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.
DE02

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....).
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.
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse
aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.
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.
We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash
programme without dishes using detergent.
Under no circumstances may the dishwasher be used
without filters.
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.
To ensure a correct
working of the dishwasher,
NEVER try to remove the
upper spray arm.
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket.
If residues of soil have
clogged the holes in the
upper spray arm, remove
them with a toothpick.
2. The dishwasher filter system comprises a coarse/fine filter
(A/B), a microfilter (C) and a flat filter (D).
Some dishwasher models filter system comprises only a
coarse filter (A), a microfilter (C) and a flat filter (D).
Unlock the filter system using the handle on the microfilter,
and remove.
MA33
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.
Frost precautions
MA35
MA32
3. Turn the handle about 1/4 a turn anticlockwise and remove.

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.
MA15
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.

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.
Water outlet hose connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following
ways:
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
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.
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a
drain.
2. Hooked over the edge of the sink using the special curved
plastic guide provided (if provided with the machine).
Water supply connections
3. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal
diameter 4 cm.
This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 60°) or cold
water (See "Technical specifications" - Instruction book part 2).
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 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
The dishwasher must not be connected to open hot water
appliances or instantaneous water heaters.
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent
or slow down the discharge of water.
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 sink plug must not be in place when the machine is
draining as this could cause the water to siphon back into the
machine.
The water inlet hose must not be kinked, crushed, or entangled
when it is being connected up.
The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be
turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation.
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.
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.
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.
Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been
used in another appliance.
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.
CS18
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.

1. The mains voltage and current rating at the site of
installation match the nominal voltage and current rating
given on the rating plate.
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.
To isolate the dishwasher from mains, remove the mains plug.
Important!
The plug must still be accessible after the appliance
has been installed.
In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced,
please contact your local consumer services
department.
Safety standards require the appliance to be
earthed.
The manufacture accepts no liability for failure to
observe the above safety precautions.
This appliance complies with the following E.E.C. Directives:
- 73/23 or 19.2.73 (Low Voltage Directive) and subsequent modifications;
