Preparation
Adding salt
Water softening system needs to be
regenerated in order for the product
operates with the same performance
continuously. Dishwasher salt is used
for this purpose.
C
Use only special softening
salts produced particularly
for the dishwashers in your
machine.
C
It is recommended to use
granule- or powder-formed
softening salts in the
water softening system.
Do not use salts that do
not completely dissolve in
water such as table salt or
rock salt. Otherwise the
performance of the system
may deteriorate in time.
C
Salt reservoir will be lled
with water when you start
the product. For this reason,
add salt before operating the
machine.
use salt under this condition, salt will
not be consumed and the Salt indicator
will not illuminate.
C
If you move your house,
it is necessary to readjust
water hardness level of your
machine by considering the
information given above
according to the hardness
level of the supply water
in your new location. Your
machine will display the
most recently adjusted water
hardness level.
1. Firstly, take the lower basket out to
add softening salt.
2. Turn the salt reservoir lid counter-
clockwise to open it (A).
3. Add 1 litre of water to salt reservoir
of your machine only in initial use.
4. Fill the salt reservoir with salt by
using the salt funnel (D). To speed
up dissolution rate of salt in water,
stir it with a spoon.
C
You can put about 2 kg of
softening salt into the salt
reservoir.
5. Replace the lid and tighten it when
the reservoir is full.

Preparation
A
Do not put solvents into the
detergent dispenser. There
is the risk of explosion!
Put the detergent into the detergent
dispenser just before operating the
machine as illustrated below.
1. Push the latch to right to open the
detergent dispenser lid (A).
2. Put suggested amount of powder,
liquid/gel or tablet detergent in the
reservoir.
C
Inside the detergent
dispenser there are level
markings that help you
use appropriate amount of
powder detergent. When
brimful, detergent dispenser
will contain 45 cm³ of
detergent. Fill detergent up
to 15 cm³ or 25 cm³ level
marks in the detergent
dispenser according to
fullness of the machine and/
or soiling degree of the
dishes. One tablet is enough
if you are using detergent
tablets.
C
You need to add salt right
before starting the machine.
Thus, the overowing
salty water will be ushed
immediately, preventing
the risk of corrosion in
machine. In cases where
you would not start washing
immediately, run your
machine empty in the
shortest program.
C
Since different salt brands
in the market have different
particle sizes and since the
water hardness may vary,
dissolution of the salt in
water may take a couple
of hours. Therefore, Salt
Indicator remains on for a
while after adding salt into
the machine.
Detergent
You can use powder, liquid/gel or tablet
detergents in the machine.
A
Only use in the machine
the detergents produced
particularly for use
with dishwashers. We
recommend you not to use
detergents that contain
chlorine and phosphate
as they are harmful for the
environment.
Adding detergent
C
Pay attention to the
warnings on the detergent
packaging to get better
washing and drying results.
Contact the manufacturer
of the detergent for further
questions.

Preparation
Water softening salt and rinse aid
must also be used together with the
detergent if the water hardness level is
above the mentioned level.
C
The best washing
performance in dishwashers
is obtained by using
detergent, rinse aid and
water softening salt
individually.
C
Observe the instructions of
the detergent manufacturer
on the package when using
tablet detergents.
C
Contact the detergent
manufacturer if your dishes
are wet and/or if you notice
limescale spots particularly
on your glasses after the
washing programme is
over when using a tablet
detergent.
When you switch to powder
detergent from tablet detergent:
1. Make sure that salt and rinse aid
reservoirs are full.
2. Set the water hardness to the
highest level and perform an empty
run.
3. After the empty washing cycle,
review the user manual and
3. Push the lid of the detergent
dispenser to close it. A "click" will
be heard when the lid is closed.

C
Use powder or liquid/
gel detergent in short
programmes without
prewash since the solubility
of the tablet detergent
changes depending on the
temperature and time.
Tablet detergents
In addition to the conventional
tablet detergents, there are also
commercially available detergent
tablets that show water softening salt
and/or rinse aid effect. Some types
of these detergents contain special-
purpose components such as glass
and stainless steel protectors. These
tablets show their effects up to a
certain water hardness level (21°dH).

Preparation
4. If there are stains on tableware
items after washing, level must
be increased and if there is a blue
trace after wiping them by hand, it
must be decreased. This is set to
position 3 as factory default.
C
The rinse aid adjustment is
described under "Adjusting
the amount of rinse aid" in
the section for operating the
machine.
C
Wipe clean any spilled
rinse aid outside the
reservoir. Rinse aid that
spilled accidentally will
cause foaming and it will
eventually decrease washing
performance.
Items not suitable for washing
in the dishwasher
Never wash dishes soiled by
cigarette ash, candle remnants,
polish, dyestuff, chemicals, etc. in
your dishwasher.
Do not wash silverware and
cutlery with wooden or bone
stems, glued pieces, or pieces that
are not resistant to heat, as well as
copper and tin-plated containers in
the dishwasher.
readjust the water hardness level
so as to suit the water supply.
4. Make the appropriate rinse aid
settings.
Rinse aid
C
The rinse aid used in
dishwashers is a special
combination that aims to
increase drying efciency
and prevent water or lime
stains on the washed items.
For this reason, care must
be paid to have rinse aid in
the rinse aid reservoir and
to use rinse aids produced
specially for dishwashers
only.
1. Open the lid of the rinse aid
reservoir with the help of the latch.
2. Fill the reservoir until “MAX” level.
3. Slightly press the point (B) of the
reservoir lid to close it.

Placing the dishes into the
dishwasher
You can use your dishwasher in the
optimum way with respect to energy
consumption and washing and drying
performance only if you place the
dishes in an orderly way.
Wipe away any coarse food
remnants (bones, seeds, etc.) on
the dishes before placing them in
the dishwasher.
Place thin, narrow pieces in the
middle sections of baskets if
possible.
Place the heavily soiled and bigger
items in the lower basket and
smaller, delicate and light items in
the upper basket.
Place the hollowed dishes such as
bowls, glasses and pans upside
down in the dishwasher. Thus,
accumulation of water in deep
hollows is prevented.
A
To prevent possible injuries,
always place the sharp and
pointed dishes such as
service fork, bread knife,
etc. upside down so as their
pointed ends will face down
or they will lie horizontally in
the dish basket.
Unload dishes in the lower basket
rst and then the dishes in the upper

Adjusting the height of the
upper basket
The upper basket height adjustment
mechanism has been designed for
you to create large spaces in the lower
or upper sections of your machine
depending on your needs by adjusting
the height in the upper or lower
direction while your basket is empty or
loaded.
Thanks to this mechanism, you can
use your basket in three different
positions, namely lower, middle and
upper positions (1, 2, 3).
1. To raise your basket, hold the
upper basket wires with both hands
while the basket is in the lowermost
position and pull them up (A).
2. You will hear a "Click" from
the right and left mechanisms,
indicating that the basket has
reached the next level. Release the
basket.
Repeat the process if the height is not
sufcient.

Salt leakage exists. >>> Pay attention not to spill salt around the salt filling
hole while adding salt. Make sure that the salt reservoir lid is tightly closed
after finishing the filling process. Run the prewash programme to remove the
salt that spilled inside the machine. Since the salt granules that will remain
under the lid will dissolve during prewash, causing the lid loosen, check the lid
once again at the end of the programme.
There is a different odour in the machine
C
A new machine has a peculiar odour. It will fade out after a couple of
washes.
Filters are clogged. >>> Check if the filter system is clean. Clean the filter
system regularly as illustrated in section “Cleaning and Care”.
Dirty dishes are kept in dishwasher for 2-3 days. >>> If you are not going
to start the machine right after you have put the dishes into it, remove the
remnants on the dishes and run the Prewash programme without detergent
every 2 days. In such cases, do not close the door of the machine completely
in order to avoid odour build up in machine. You can also use commercially
available odour removers or machine cleaners.
Rust, discoloration or surface deterioration occurs on dishes
Salt leakage exists. >>> Salt may cause deterioration and oxidation on metal
surfaces. Pay attention not to spill salt around the salt filling hole while adding
salt. Make sure that the salt reservoir lid is tightly closed after finishing the
filling process. Run the prewash programme to remove the salt that spilled
inside the machine. Since the salt granules that will remain under the lid will
dissolve during prewash, causing the lid loosen, check the lid once again at
the end of the programme.
Salty food remnants have remained on dishes for a long time. >>> If cutlery
soiled with such foods will be kept waiting in machine, dirt must be removed
by prewash or dishes must be washed without being kept waiting.
Electric installation is not grounded. >>>Check if your machine is connected
to the actual grounding line. Otherwise, the static electric created in the
product causes arcs on the surfaces of metal items creating pores, removing
the protective cover on the surface and causing discoloration.
Intensive cleansers such as bleaches are used. >>> Protective cover on
metal surfaces gets damaged and looses its efficiency in time when it gets in
contact with cleansers such as bleach. Do not wash your dishes with bleach.
Metal items particularly such as knives are used for purposes other then
their intended uses. >>> Protective cover on the edges of knives may get

damaged when they are used for purposes such as opening cans. Do not use
metal kitchen utensils out of their intended uses.
Cutlery are made of low quality stainless steel. >>> Corrosion on such items
is inevitable; they should not be washed in dishwashers.
Kitchen utensils that are already corroded are washed in dishwasher. >>>
Rust on a corroded item can migrate to other stainless steel surfaces and
cause corrosion on those surfaces as well. Such items should not be washed
in dishwashers.
Detergent remains in detergent dispenser.
Detergent dispenser was damp when adding detergent. >>> Make sure that
the detergent dispenser is dried well prior to filling it with detergent.
Detergent is added long before the washing process. >>> Pay attention to
add detergent shortly before start-up of the washing.
Opening of the detergent dispenser lid is prevented during washing. >>>
Place the dishes in a way that will not prevent the detergent dispenser lid from
opening and the water going into the machine from impellers.
Detergent is stored under unsuitable conditions. >>> If you are using powder
detergent, do not store the detergent package in humid places. Keep it in a
closed container if possible. For ease-of-storing, we recommend you to use
tablet detergents.
Impeller holes are clogged. >>> Lower and upper impeller holes might be
clogged with food remnants such as lemon pips. Clean the impellers regularly
as illustrated in section “Cleaning and Care”.
Decorations and ornaments on kitchen utensils are being erased.
C
Decorated glasses and decorated lustre porcelains are not suitable
for washing in the dishwasher. Manufacturers of some glassware and
porcelain tableware items do not recommend washing such kitchen
utensils in the dishwashers either.
Dishes are scratched.
C
Kitchen utensils that contains or are made of aluminum should not be
washed in dishwasher.
Salt leakage exists. >>> Pay attention not to spill salt around the salt filling
hole while adding salt. Spilled salt can cause scratches. Make sure that the
salt reservoir lid is tightly closed after finishing the filling process. Run the
prewash programme to remove the salt that spilled inside the machine. Since
the salt granules that will remain under the lid will dissolve during prewash,
causing the lid loosen, check the lid once again at the end of the programme.
Water hardness setting is low or salt level is insufficient >>> Measure the
hardness of the supply water appropriately and check the water hardness
setting.

Troubleshooting
Dishes are not placed orderly in the machine. >>> When placing the glasses
and other glassware into the basket lean them not against other dishes but
the edges or racks of the basket or the glass support tines. Striking of the
glasses to each other or to other dishes due to the impact of water during
washing can cause breaks, or scratches on their surfaces.
A smear remains on glasses that resembles milk stain which can not be
removed when wiped by hand. A bluish / rainbow appearance occurs when
the glass is pointed to light.
Excessive rinse aid is used. >>>Lower rinse aid setting. Clean the spilled
rinse aid when adding rinse aid.
Corrosion has occurred on glass due to soft water. >>> Measure the hardness
of the supply water appropriately and check the water hardness setting. If
your supply water is soft (<5 dH), do not use salt. Choose programmes that
wash in higher temperatures (e.g. 60-65°C). You can also use glass protective
detergents that are commercially available.
Foam forms in the machine.
Dishes are washed with hand-wash detergent by hand but not rinsed before
placing them into the machine. >>> Hand-wash detergents do not contain
antifoam. There is no need to hand-wash the dishes before placing them into
the machine. Removing the coarse soil on the dishes under tap water, with a
tissue paper or fork will be sufficient.
Rinse aid has spilled into the machine when adding rinse aid. >>> Take care
that rinse aid is not spilled in the machine when you are filling it. Clean any
spilled rinse ait with the help of a tissue paper/towel.
Lid of the rinse aid reservoir is left open. >>> Make sure that the lid of the
rinse aid reservoir is closed after adding rinse aid.
Kitchen utensils are broken.
Dishes are not placed orderly in the machine. >>> Load the dishes as
described in the user manual.
Baskets are overloaded. >>> Do not overload the baskets in excess of their
capacity.
Water remains in the dishwasher at the end of the programme.
Filters are clogged. >>> Check if the filter system is clean. Clean the filter
system regularly as illustrated in section “Cleaning and Care”.
Discharge hose is clogged/blocked. >>> Check the discharge hose. If
necessary, remove the discharge hose, clear the blockage and insert is as
illustrated in the user manual.
