Prior to using for the first time
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
Filling with salt
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply
with the installation instructions
Special salt can be added in one of two ways:
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
●
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 be set to level 1 to
ensure that the special salt is taken from the detergent
container only.
●
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
between 2 and 5 (depending on the water hardness in
your area) to ensure that the special salt is taken from
the detergent container only.
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill
with salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
Setting 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, Clarke
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 dishwasher is factory set at level 2. If this level is not
suitable for your area the softener should be adjusted.
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 (not 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.

Level Use of
salt
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.
To adjust the water softener
Level 1
4. Replace the cap making
sure that there is no trace
of salt on the screw thread
or on the gasket.
If your water is level 1 it is already soft and therefore there is
no need to use salt.
Levels 3 and 5
5. Screw on the cap tightly
turning it clockwise until it
stops with a click.
(water softener adjustment)
If your water is level 3 or 5,
proceed as follows:
- slide out the lower basket
and unscrew the cap of the
salt container;
- turn the two-position
selector anticlockwise from
position - to position + with
the aid of a blunt knife or
screwdriver.
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.
AA01
Do not worry if water over
flows from the unit when
filling with salt, this is quite
normal.
(adjustment on the machine)
With a water hardness of
level 5 both adjustments
must be made.
SR02
The salt container will require topping up periodically.
Levels 4 and 5
If your water is level 4 or 5,
open the door and drill the
membrane (A) on the upper
left-hand corner of the
machine.

Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Rinse aid
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent
cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.
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.
Use only 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.
Rinse aid can be added in one of two ways:
Adjusting the dose
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.
●
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.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.
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").
●
Filling with rinse aid
1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.
BR02
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The
indicator (B) will be completely dark.
3. Top up the rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes clear.

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
6
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
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
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 rack so that water
can reach all surfaces.
Glasses with long stems can
be placed upside down in the
cup rack.
Light items (plastic bowls
etc.) must be loaded in the
upper basket and arranged
so they do not move.
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 upper spray arm can turn
freely.
US56
UI57
When loading the upper
basket, ensure that you do
not cover the water inlet
funnel in the middle of the
upper basket.
UI12
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.
US16
US16
Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with
the handles facing downwards. If the handles protrude from
the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load
the cutlery with the handles facing upwards.
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can
rotate freely.
Mix spoons with other cutlery
to prevent them from sticking
together.
Arrange spoons, dessert
spoons, knives and other
small items of cutlery in the
rack on the side of the
cutlery basket.
UI08

Adjusting the height of the upper basket
If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm in
diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after moving
the upper basket to the higher position.
To move to the higher position proceed as
follows:
1. Move the front runner
stops (A) of the upper
basket outwards and
slide the basket out.
2. Refit the basket in the
higher position and
replace the stops (A) in
their original position.
RC01
After loading your machine always close the door, as an
open door can be a hazard.
For all programmes with
prewash, an additional
detergent dose (5 g) must be
placed over the lid of the
dispenser.
This detergent will take effect
during the prewash phase
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.
Fill with detergent
Prior to the start of a wash programme. The detergent is
released during the washing phase.
DE02
Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage
recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
We recommend the use of Finish detergents which are
available in the following options:
1. Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D).
The lid springs open.
Finish Double Action Tablets. Each tablet has the exact
amount of detergent required, simply place in the dispenser.
2. Fill the detergent
dispenser with detergent.
The marking indicates
the dosing levels:
Finish Powder recommended for every day use.
Finish Liquid Gel ideal for every day use. As the gel is extra
gentle it is recommended for fine bone china.
MIN = approximately
15 g of detergent
MAX = approximately
30 g of detergent
3. Close the lid and press
until it locks in place.

Use of "3 in 1" combi detergent tablets
General advice
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.
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).
Special advice
When using combination products, select the lowest possible
setting for water hardness.
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:
●
Refill both the salt container and rinse aid dispenser.
●
Switch the water hardness setting to the highest possible
position and run a normal washing programme without a
load.
●
Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the
hardness of the water in your area.
Concentrated detergent
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents
can be split into two basic types:
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.
- low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.
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
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.

indicator light will come on and the programme will start.
5. Interrupting a washing programme
Interrupt a washing programme in progress ONLY if
it’s absolutely necessary
To interrupt a washing programme
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 MAINS ON push button (in this case the
MAINS ON indicator light turns off). Press the MAINS
ON push button again; the programme will start from
the point in which it was interrupted.
6. End of the washing programme
The dishwasher will automatically stop.
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the MAINS ON
push button, the MAINS ON 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.
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.
When the washing programme has finished, it is
recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the
water tap turned off.
11
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....).
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.
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse
aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.
Prolonged periods of non-operation
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.
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.
Cleaning the central filters
(After each wash)
Frost precautions
Inspect the central filters (B) and (C) and remove any scraps of
food with a brush, under running water.
Filters (B) and (C) are both removed by lifting up the outer one
(B) (pulling the central funnel upwards); the smaller filter (C)
can be removed by pressing the two tongues (D).
Once cleaned, refit the filters by pressing them down until they
click into place.

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.

Installation instructions
Any electrical work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
Water supply connections
This dishwasher must be plumbed into a cold water supply.
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.
The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.
Do not use, for the connection, old hoses which have
been used in another appliance.
Avoid bends or kinks in the hose which could prevent or slow
down the water supply.
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. This will prevent
deposits of sand or rust clogging the inlet hose filter.
Any plumbing work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified plumber or competent
person.
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a
drain.
Fitting under a counter
(kitchen worktop or sink)
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.

Proceed as follows:
- Remove the machine’s worktop by unscrewing the two front
retaining screws, pull from the front and slide out the rear
slots, lifting the worktop.
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.
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 the levelling spacers 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.
