4 BEFORE USING THE
APPLIANCE
Preparing your dishwasher for first use
• Make sure the electricity and supply
water specications match the values
indicated in the installation instructions
for the machine.
• Remove all packaging material inside
the machine.
• Fill the rinse aid compartment.
Detergent usage
Only use detergents specifically designed
for domestic dishwashers. Keep your
detergents in cool, dry places out of reach
of children.
Add the proper detergent for the selected
program to ensure the best performance.
The amount of detergent needed depends
on the cycle, load size, and soil level of
dishes.
Do not fill detergent into the detergent
compartment more than required; otherwise
you can see whitish streaks or bluish layers
on glass and dishes and may cause glass
corrosion. Continued use of too much
detergent may cause machine damage.
Using little detergent can result in poor
cleaning and you can see whitish streaksin
hard water.
See the detergent manufacturer’s
instructions for a further information.
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.
DETERGENT
Using combined detergents
These products should be used according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Never put combined detergents into the
interior section or the cutlery basket.
Combined detergents contain not only the
detergent but also rinse-aid, 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.
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 the correct level.
Rinse-aid usage
The rinse aid helps to dry the dishes
without streaks and stains. Rinse-aid is
required for stain-free utensils and clear
glasses. The rinse aid is automatically
released during the hot rinse phase. If
rinse aid dosage setting set too low, whitish
stains remains on dishes and dishes do not
dry and washed clean. If rinse aid dosage
setting set too height, you can see bluish
layers on glass and dishes.
USA-CAN - 12
Filling the rinse-aid and setting
To fill the rinse aid compartment, open
the rinse-aid compartment cap. Fill the
compartment with rinse aid to the MAX
level and then close the cap. Be careful not
to overfill the rinse aid compartment and
wipe up any spills.
In order to change the rinse aid level,
follow the below steps
• Turn on the machine and press Menu
button for 3 seconds. Water hardness

5 LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER
If you properly place your dishes into the
machine, you will be using it in the best way
in terms of energy consumption, washing
and drying performance.
You can load into the lower basket such
round and deep items as pots with long
handles, pot lids, plates, salad plates,
cutlery sets. The upper basket has been
designed for dessert plates, salad bowls,
cups and glasses. When placing long stem
glasses and goblets, lean them against the
basket edge, rack or glass supporter wire
and not against other items. Do not lean
long glasses against one another or they
cannot remain steady and may receive
damage. It is more appropriate to locate the
thin narrow parts into the middle sections of
baskets. You can place spoons among the
other cutlery sets in order to prevent them
from sticking to one another.
You are recommended to use the cutlery
grid in order to obtain the best result. To
avoid any possible injuries, always place
such long-handle and sharp-pointed dishes
as serving fork, bread knife etc. with their
sharp points facing down or horizontally on
the baskets.
WARNING: Place your dishes into
your machine in a way that they will not
prevent the upper and lower spray arms
from spinning.
NOTE: Place all large and very dirty
items in the lower rack.
WARNING: Do not put in the
appliance items that can absorb water
(sponges,household cloths).
NOTE: Place all containers such as
cups, glasses and pots into the dishwasher
with the opening facing downwards (so that
no water can collect).
NOTE: Dishes and cutlery should not
be placed above each other.
NOTE: Do not overload your
dishwasher and pay attention to
manufacturer instructions regarding
dishes which are appropriate for use in
a dishwasher. Only with suitable dishes
(mentioned in section 5) will you obtain
optimal washing results with a sensible use
of energy.
High temperature water and dishwasher
detergent may form a chemical synthesis
that can damage certain items.
WARNING: Be careful when loading
and unloading sharp items. Load sharp
knives with the handles up to reduce the
risk of personal injury.
Follow the below steps before loading
dishwasher.
1. Open the door.
2. Remove coarse food leftovers from
tableware.
3. Load the dishwasher.
NOTE: While the appliance is running
if you open the door all functions are
automatically interrupted. Once the door is
closed functions will continue to work.
