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.
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.
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
DO NOT use connection hoses which have previously
been used for an old appliance.
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a
drain.
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.
Building-in
This dishwasher is designed to be fitted under a kitchen
counter or worksurface.
Water inlet hose with safety valve
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.
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.
The dishwasher incorporates adjustable feet to allow the
adjustment of the height.
Please take care when installing the water inlet hose:
During all operations that involve accessibility to internal
components the dishwasher has to be unplugged.
- The electrical cable for the safety valve is in the doublewalled water inlet hose. Do not immerse the water inlet hose
or the safety valve in water.
When inserting the machine, ensure that the water inlet hose,
the drain hose and the supply cable are not kinked or
squashed.
- 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.
Levelling
- Place the water inlet hose in such a way that it is never
higher than the bottom edge of the safety valve.
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.
WARNING!
Dangerous voltage
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).
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 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).
21
Water outlet hose connection
Electrical connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following
ways:
Information concerning the electrical connection is given on the
rating plate on the edge of the dishwasher’s door.
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.
Before plugging the appliance into the wall socket, make sure
that:
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. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal
diameter 4 cm.
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.
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.
To isolate the dishwasher from mains, remove the mains plug.
Important!
The plug must still be accessible after the appliance
has been installed.
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.
In case that the electrical cable has to be replaced,
please contact your local Service Force Centre.
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 appliance should not be connected to the
electrical supply by means of an extension cable.
Safety standards require the appliance to be
earthed.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for failure to
observe the above safety precautions.
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.

b) Setting electronically
(The dishwasher must be switched off)
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply
with the installation instructions
The dishwasher is factory set at level 5.
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
1. Keep the start/cancel button pressed and turn the
programme selector dial clockwise until the programme
selection marker corresponds with the first washing
programme.
The On/Off and start/cancel indicator lights start to flash
indicating that you have activated the water softener setting
function.
At the same time, the end of programme indicator light
starts flashing.
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill
with dishwasher salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
Note:
If you want to use the "3 in 1" combi detergents, carefully
read the information given in "Different kinds of
detergents".
The current level is indicated by the number of flashes of
the end of programme indicator light and a pause of about
5 seconds (see chart).
Example: 5 flashes + pause + 5 flashes etc...= level 5
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.
2. To change the level, press the start/cancel button.
Each time this button is pressed the level changes. (For the
selection of the new level, see chart).
Examples:
If current level is 5, by pressing the start/cancel button
once, level 6 is selected.
If current level is 10, by pressing the start/cancel button
once, level 1 is selected.
The end of programme indicator light remains off for about
5 seconds and then starts flashing indicating the new set
made.
The water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using
the water hardness dial and electronically, using the
programme selector dial and the start/cancel button.
3. To memorise the operation, switch off the machine by
returning the programme selector dial to the Off position,
that is the programme selection marker corresponds with
the On/Off indicator light.
Otherwise wait for about 60 seconds, after which the
dishwasher will automatically return to setting mode.

Use
of salt
Filling with dishwasher 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 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.
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 between16 and 40
dishwashing cycles, 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".
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.
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.
5. Replace the cap tightly
turning it clockwise until it
stops with a click.
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.
The salt container will require topping up periodically.
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.
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.
Do not worry if water overflows from the unit when filling with
salt, this is quite normal.
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 (B) becomes clear.
26
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.
●
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 teflon have a tendency to
retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as
porcelain and steel items.
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 are not temperature
resistant
- 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.
- 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 prone to rusting
- Wooden platters
- Items made from synthetic fibres
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
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.
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.
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 grid provided (if the
size and dimensions of the
cutlery allow it).
27
The upper basket
Adjusting the height of 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.
Glasses with long stems can
be placed upside down in the
cup racks.
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.
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. 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.
When the basket is in the
higher position you will not
be able to use the cup
rack(s).
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.
After loading your machine always close the door, as an
open door can be a hazard.
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can
rotate freely.
28
Use of detergent
Different kinds of
detergent
Only use detergents specifically designed for use in
dishwashers.
Using no more than the correct amount of detergent
contributes to reducing pollution.
Detergent tablets
Please observe the manufacturer’s dosing and storage
recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
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.
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
Concentrated detergent
Modern detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively lowalkaline 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 dirt-dissolving 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.
Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents
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.
These products are detergents with a combined cleaning,
rinsing and salt function.
1. Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water
hardness. Follow the manufacturers instructions.
4. Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
NOTE: the refilling of the salt container and the rinse aid
dispenser are no longer necessary.
In this case the rinse aid indicator light will always remain
illuminated when the machine is switched on (not all
dishwasher models are foreseen with salt and rinse aid
indicator lights).
2. Select the lowest setting for water hardness.
3. Before the start of the washing programme put the "3 in 1"
detergent in the detergent dispenser.
NOTE: If the drying results are not satisfactory we recommend
that you:
1. Fill up the rinse aid dispenser with rinse aid.
2. Set the rinse aid dosage to position 2.
If you decide to turn back to the use of the standard
detergent system we advise that you:
●
Fill up the dispensers for salt and rinse aid again.
●
Adjust the water hardness setting to the highest setting
and perform up to 3 normal washing programmes without
loading any dishes.
●
Adjust the water hardness setting according to the
hardness of the water in your area.
●
Adjust the rinse aid dosage.
NOTE: When using 4 in 1 detergents that integrate also antiglass corrosion agent into "3 in 1" formula, please follow the
same instruction as given for "3 in 1" detergents above.

Rinse and Hold
(1) 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.
(2) 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.

Starting a washing programme
1. Check that the baskets have been
loaded correctly and that the spray
arms can rotate freely
6. End of the washing programme
The dishwasher will stop automatically.
The illumination of the end of programme indicator light
indicates that the programme has ended.
Switch off the dishwasher by returning the programme
selector dial to the Off position.
The On/Off indicator light turns off.
2. Turn on the water tap
Open the dishwasher’s door, leave it ajar and wait a few
minutes before removing the dishes; in this way they will
be cooler and the drying will be improved.
3. Close the dishwasher door
7. Unloading the dishwasher
4. Setting and starting the programme
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should
therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from
the appliance.
Turn the programme selector dial until the marker on the
dial corresponds with the desired programme (see
"Washing programmes" chart).
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.
The On/Off indicator light illuminates.
The indicator lights of the phases foreseen for the
programme start flashing.
Water may appear on the sides and the door of the
dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become
cooler than the dishes.
Press the start/cancel button, the programme starts
automatically and the start/cancel indicator light
illuminates.
The indicator light of the phase in progress is illuminated.
When the washing programme has finished, it is
recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the
water tap turned off.
NOTE: during the running of the programme, it is not
possible to change the selection made by positioning the
programme selector dial in correspondence of another
programme. If you want to change the running washing
programme you must cancel the selection made (see "To
cancel a washing programme in progress").
NOTE: the washing programme will begin only after
having pressed the start/cancel button. Until that moment
it is possible to modify the selection made.
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
Press the start/cancel button for about 5 seconds.
The start/cancel indicator light turns off and the phase
indicator lights are flashing.
The running programme has been cancelled and it is now
possible to set a new washing programme.
If a new washing programme is to be selected, check that
there is detergent in the detergent dispenser.
31
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.
Attention!
Cleaning the filters
If residues of soil have
clogged the holes in the
upper spray arm, remove
them with a cocktail stick.
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.
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.
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.
3. Turn the handle about 1/4 a turn anticlockwise and remove.
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.
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.
