Getting to know your Dishwasher 13 Installing your Dishwasher 3 Installing your Dishwasher Bringing it all together Positioning your Dishwasher Water Inlet Hose When positioning the machine, place it in an area where dishes can be easily loaded and unloaded. Do not put the machine in an area where the ambient temperature falls below 0°C.. Read all warnings located on the packaging before removing the packaging and positioning the machine. Place the machine close to a water tap and drain. Take into consideration that the connections will not be altered once the machine is in position. Do not hold the machine by its door or panel. Leave an adequate distance around the machine to allow ease of movement when cleaning. Ensure the water inlet and outlet hoses are not squeezed or trapped and that the machine does not stand on the electrical cable while positioning. WARNING: Use the new water inlet hose supplied with your machine, do not use an old machine's hose. WARNING: Run water through the new hose before connecting. WARNING: Connect the hose directly to the water inlet tap. The pressure supplied by the tap should be a minimum of 0.03MPa and a maximum of 1 MPa If the pressure exceeds 1MPa, a pressure relief valve must be fitted between the connection. WARNING: After the connections are made, turn the tap on fully and check for water leaks. Always turn off the water inlet tap after a wash program has finished. Adjust the feet so the machine is level and balanced. The machine should be placed on flat ground otherwise it will be unstable and the door of the machine will not close properly. Water connection We recommend fitting a filter to your water inlet supply in order to prevent damage to your machine due to contamination (sand, rust, etc.) from indoor plumbing. This will also help prevent yellowing and deposit formation after washing. An Aquastop water spout is available with some models. Do not damage it or allow it to become kinked or twisted.

Only use detergents specifically designed for domestic dishwashers. Add the recommended amount of detergent for the selected programme to ensure the best performance. Keep your detergents in cool, dry places out of reach of children. See the detergent manufacturer's instructions for a further information. Never put combined detergents into the interior section or the cutlery basket. Combined detergents contain not only the detergent but also rinse-aid, salt replacement substances and additional components depending on the combination. We recommend you do not use combined detergents in short programmes. Please use powder detergents in such programmes. Filling the detergent Push the latch to open the dispenser and pour in the detergent. Close the lid and press it until it locks in place. The dispenser should be refilled just before the start of each programme. If the dishes are heavily soiled, place additional detergent in the pre-wash detergent chamber. D ET ER GE NT If you encounter problems when using combined detergents, please contact the detergent manufacturer. When you stop using combined detergents, make sure that water hardness and rinse aid settings are set to correct level. Rinse-aid usage Rinse-aid makes dishes sparkle and helps them to dry without spotting. Rinse-aid is required for stainfree utensils and clear glasses. Use only rinse-aid for domestic dishwashers. Filling the rinse-aid and setting To fill the rinse aid compartment, remove the rinseaid compartment cap by turning it. Fill the compartment with rinse aid until the level indicator goes dark. Replace the cap and close it by turning it. Be careful not to overfill the rinse aid compartment and wipe up any spills. The rinse-aid compartment has a level adjuster, numbered 1 to 6, which controls how much rinse aid is used in each wash. The factory setting is "3". If the dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, increase the level. If blue stains form on your dishes, decrease level. To do this, remove the cap and rotate the indicator arrow setting then replace the cap.

Using your Dishwasher 27 This page is left intentionally blank Care and maintenance 6 Care and maintenance Looking after your appliance Cleaning Cleaning your Dishwasher is important to maintain the machine’s service life. Oil and limescale may build up in your Dishwasher over time. If this occurs: • Fill the detergent compartment but do not load any dishes. Select a programme which runs at high temperature and run the Dishwasher empty. If this does not clean your Dishwasher sufficiently, use a cleaning agent designed for use with dishwashers. • Wipe the door seals regularly with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated residue. Cleaning machine and filters • Never use your Dishwasher without a filter. • Incorrect fitting of the filter will reduce the washing effectiveness. • Clean filters are necessary for proper running of the machine. Spray arms Make sure that the spray holes are not clogged and that no food waste is stuck to the spray arms. If there is any clogging, remove the spray arms and clean them under water. To remove the upper spray arm undo the nut holding it in position by turning it clockwise and pulling it downwards. Make sure that the nut is properly tightened when refitting the upper spray arm. Clean the filters and spray arms at least once a week. If any food waste remains on the coarse and fine filters, remove them and clean them thoroughly with water. a) Micro Filter b) Coarse Filter c) Metal Filter b a 1 2 c 3 4 To remove and clean the filter combination, turn it counter clockwise and remove it by lifting it upwards (1).Pull the coarse filter out of the micro filter (2).Then pull and remove the metal filter (3).Rinse the filter with lots of water until it is free of residue.
