There are two ways to reduce the detergent. water hardness: one way is using the water softener, the other is using

The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils.

The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water.

Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.

The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:

1 Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.

2

3

If you are filling the container for the first time ,fill 2/3 of its volume with water.

Place the end of the funnel(supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2kg of salt .It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container

4

1.

The salt container must be refilled when the salt warning light comes on. Though the salt container is filled

enough, the indicator light may not black out before the salt fully dissolves.

2.

If there are spills of the salt, a soak program could be run to wipe them out.

1

2

Unscrew the cap from the salt container.

There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see Figure to the side), if necessary, rotate the ring in the anticlockwise direction from the "-" Setting toward the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.It is recommended that adjustments should be made in accordance with the following:

Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.

YOU MAY NOT NEED TO ADD TOO MUCH DETERGENT BECAUSE YOUR DISHWASHER HAS A SPECIALLY-DESIGNED WATER

SOFTENER.

The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the" Wash Cycle

Table". Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. Also, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers.

Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.

Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children.

To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.

Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.

Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to "sheet" off the dishes.

Your dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The dispenser holds about 100 ml of liquid rinse aid.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause oversudsing. Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth.

Don't forget to replace the cap before you close the dishwasher door.

If you have soft water, you may not need rinse aid for it may cause a white film to develop on your dishes.

A measured amount of rinse aid is released during the final rinse. As with detergent, the amount of rinse aid needed for your dishes depends on the hardness of the water in your area. Too much rinse aid can result in lather of foaming and cause cloudiness or steaks on your dishes. If the water in your area is very soft, you may not need rinse aid. If you do,you can dilute the rinse aid with an equal amount of water.

The rinse aid dispenser has six settings. Always start with the dispenser set on " 1 ". If spots and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "2". If the dishes still are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free.

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cup and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans(as long as they are not too dirty).

Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.

The upper rack can be adjusted for height by putting wheels of different height into the rails.

We recommend that you place large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.

It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.

Pots, serving bowls, etc, must always be placed top down.

Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to flow out.

The bottom rack feature fold down tine rows so that larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.

For your convenience, we have placed filtering system within easy reach inside the tub. There are three components of the filtering system: the main filter, the coarse filter, and the fine filter.

Main filter

Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down the drain.

Coarse filter

Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that could clog the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To remove an item caught in this filter, gently squeeze the tabs on top of this filter and lift it out.

Fine filter

This filter holds food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being redeposited on the dishes during a cycle.

Filter assembly

For best performance and results, the filter must be cleaned regularly.

The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the semicircular filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter , pull on the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter should be cleaned once a week.

To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figures on the left and reinsert the entire filter in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat and pressing downward.

The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.

Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place.

To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp cloth. To prevent penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.

Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they will scratch the finish. Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel for it could damage the door lock and electrical components. It is not allowed to use the abrasive agent or some paper towel becauseof the risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.

After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products.

Use only a cloth and warm soapy water.

To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

When you go on holiday, it is recommened that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.

If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position.If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals.

Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.

This dishwasher is designed for operation on an adequately wired individual 220~240VAC,50~60HZ. Use required fuse 13 amp.

Fused electrical supply is required-copper wire only. Time delay fuse or circuit breaker recommended and provide separate circuit serving only this appliance. Outlet should be placed in adjacent cabinet.

After making sure that the voltage and the frequency values for the current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate and that the electrical system is sized for the maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not

appropriate for the plug , replace the socket,rather than using a adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.
