Water Hardness & setting the salt
The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness dial. The water softener
is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, 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. 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.
Adjusting Salt Consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjustment in the amount of salt consumed based on
the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimise and customise the level o f salt
consumption.
“/” No salt needed
- Setting toward the “-” sign
“+” Setting toward the “+” sign
-” or “+” Setting toward between the “-
sign and the “+” sign
British measurement = Clarke
Please follow the steps below for adjustment in salt
consumption.
1. Unscrew the cap fr0m the salt container, inside the unit. Anti
clockwise and remove to reveal the picture on the left.
2. There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see
figure on 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. This controls
the amount of salt that will be used
It is recommended that adjustments should be made in
accordance with the following scheme:

Loading the salt into the container
Always use the salt intended for use with dishwasher.
The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as explained in the
following:
Attention!
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers! Every other type of salt not specifically
designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of
damage caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer do not give any warranty and we are
not liable for any damage caused.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programs.
This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the
bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
A) Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container. See
diagram 1.
B) Place a funnel into the hole and introduce about 1.5kg of dishwasher salt.
C) Fully fill the salt container with water. It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of
the salt container. See diagram 2.
D) After filling the container, screw the cap tightly back clockwise.
E) Usually, the salt warning light will stop being illuminated within 2-6 days after the salt container
has been filled.
F) Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (
We suggest to use the soak or rapid program) Otherwise the filter system, pump or other
important parts of the machine may be damaged by salty water. This may affect the warranty.
Note:
1. The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on.
Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the
salt container is filled.
2. If there are spills of salt, a soak or a rapid program should be run to remove the excessive salt.

Rinse aid dispenser
Rinse Aid dispenser
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your
dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the
dishes. Your dishwasher is 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 volume of the rinse aid container is about 110ml.
Function of Rinse Aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and
streak free drying.
Attention!
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other
substances (e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This may damage the appliance.
When to Refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
If there is no rinse-aid warning light in the control panel, you can estimate the amount from the
colour of the optical level indicator located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the
whole indicator will be darker. As the rinse-aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You
should never let the rinse aid level fall 1 / 4 full.
As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as
illustrated below.

Detergent
Detergent with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out
of the dishwasher.
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.
Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents
1.With phosphate and with chlorine
2.With phosphate and without chlorine
3.Without phosphate and without chlorine
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of
phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when
the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard
water often white spots appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to
reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots
will not be removed completely. In this case please choose a program with a higher temperature.
Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:
conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
Detergent Tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some
detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programs.
Therefore please use long programs when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal
of detergent residuals.
Detergent Dispenser
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions
provided in the wash cycle table . Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than a
conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash
load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting
the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

4.All utensils are placed in the way that the spray arms can rotate freely during washing.
background
17
Loading the dishwasher
Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans etc. with the opening facing 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.
Load large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower basket.
The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee
and tea cups.
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.
Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is important for good results.
Removing the dishes
To prevent water dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we recommend that you
empty the lower basket first and then the upper basket.
Loading the Upper Basket
The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee
and tea cups 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 will not get moved by the spray of
water.

Adding a dish during a cycle
A forgotten dish can be added at any time before the detergent cup opens.
1. Open the door a little to stop the washing.
2. After the spray arms stop working, you can open the door completely.
3. Load the forgotten dishes.
4. Close the door, the dishwasher will start running again after 10 seconds.
At the end of the wash cycle
When the working cycle has finished, the buzzer of the dishwasher will sound for 8
seconds, then stop. Turn off the appliance using the ON/OFF button, shut off the
water supply and open the door of the dishwasher.
Wait for a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes
and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. They will also
dry better.
Switch off the dishwasher
1.Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON/OFF button.
2.Turn off the water tap
Open the door carefully
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down around 15
minutes before removing from the appliance. 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.
Unloading the dishwasher
It is normal that the dishwasher is wet inside.
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.

Maintenance & Cleaning
The filter prevents larger remnants of food or other objects from getting inside
the pump. The residue may block the filter, in this case they must be removed.
The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a flat
(Main filter) and a microfilter (Fine filter).
1) Main Filter
Food and soil particles trapped in this filter are
pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm
and washed down to drain.
2) Coarse Filter
Larger items, such as pieces of bones or glass, that
could block the drain are trapped in the coarse filter.
To remove the items caught by the filter, gently
squeeze the tap on the top of this filter and lift out.
3) Fine filter
This filter holds soil and food residues in the sump
area and prevents it from being redeposit on the
dishes during wash cycle.
Filter Assembly
The filter efficiently removes particles of food from the wash water, allowing it to be recycled
during the wash cycle. For best performance and results, the filter must be cleaned regularly. 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 semi circular filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter
device, pull the cup handle in the upward direction.
background
26
Maintenance & Cleaning
Step 1 Turn the filter in anti-clockwise
direction, then lift it up.
Step 2 Lift the main filter up
Step 3 lift the Fine filter up
- Inspect the filters for blocking after every time the dishwasher has been used.
- By unscrewing the coarse filter, you can remove the filter system. Remove any food remnants
and clean the filters under running water.
background
27
Maintenance & Cleaning
Cleaning
The control panel and exterior can be cleaned by using a lightly dampened cloth.
After cleaning, make sure to dry it thoroughly.
Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp cloth.
To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray
cleaner of any kind.
please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter if it is used in a cold
environment. Every time after washing cycles, please operate as follows,
1.Cut off the electrical power to the dishwasher.
2.Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
3.Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)
4.Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
5.Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up water in the sump.
background
28
Maintenance & Cleaning
Cleaning the Spray Arms
It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly
for hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm
jets and bearings.
To remove the upper spray arm, screw off the nut
clockwise then remove the arm.
To remove the lower spray arm, pull out the
spray arm upward.
Wash the arms in soapy and warm water and use
a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after
rinsing them thoroughly.
After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly open so
that moisture and odours are not trapped inside.
Remove the Plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.
No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive
cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water
and a little vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.
When not in use for a long time
It is recommend 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
open. This will help the door seals to last longer and prevent odours from forming
within the appliance.
Moving 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.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odours to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in
the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
background
29
Positioning the appliance
Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind it,
and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or walls. The dishwasher is equipped with water
supply and drain hoses that can be positioned either to the right or the left sides to facilitate
proper installation.
Once the appliance is positioned for
levelling, the height of the dishwasher may
be altered via adjustment of the screwing
level of the feet. In any case, the appliance
should not be inclined more than 2 .
background
30
Water connection
Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4(inch) connector and make sure that it is
fastened tightly in place.
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water
run to make sure that the water is clear. This precaution is needed to avoid the risk of the
water inlet getting blocked and damaging the appliance.
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4cm, or let it run into the
sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. Use the special plastic support that comes
with the appliance . The top of the hose must be at a height between 40 and 100cm. The free
end of the hose must not be immersed in water to avoid the back flow of it.
background
31
Water connection
How to Drain Excess Water From Hoses
If the sink is 1000 higher from the floor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly
into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable
container that is held outside and lower than the sink.
Water Outlet
Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.
Ensure that the water drain hose is not kinked or squashed.
Extension Hose
If you need a drain hose extension, make sure to use a similar drain hose.
It must be no longer than 4 metres; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be
reduced.
Syphon Connection
The waste connection must be at a height of between 40 cm (minimum) and 100 cm
(maximum) from the bottom of the dish. The water drain hose should be fixed by a hose clip.
The free end of the hose must not be immersed in water.
The following things should be checked before starting the dishwasher.
1 The dishwasher is level and fixed properly
2 The inlet valve is open
3 There is a leakage at the connections of the conducts
4 The wires are tightly connected
5 The power is switched on
6 The inlet and drain hoses are knotted
7 All packing materials and printings should be taken out from the dishwasher

Technical specification
Plug
If your appliance is supplied with a non-rewireable plug fitted to the mains lead you will find that
it incorporates a fuse, the value of which is indicated either on the base of the plug or on the
fuse carrier.
Should the fuse need replacing, you must use an ASTA approved fuse (conforming to BS1362) of
the same rating.
If the fuse cover is lost the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained from an
electrical supplier.
If you need to remove the plug, cut it from the mains lead and dispose of it. Never attempt to re-
use this plug or insert it into a socket outlet, as there is a very great risk of an electric shock.
