After installation. remove the stoppers from the racks and the retaining elastic elements from the upper rack.
The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the dishes and on the machine’s functional components.
The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher (see PROGRAMS DESCRIPTION) and should be filled when the SALT REFILL indicator light 
in the control panel is lit.

Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly. so that no detergent can get into the container during the wash program (this could damage the water softener beyond repair).
Whenever you need to add salt. we recommend carrying out the procedure before the washing cycle is started.
SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS
To allow the water softener to work in a perfect way. it is essential that the water hardness setting is based on the actual water hardness in your house. This information can be obtained from your local water supplier.
Setting is complete!
As soon as this procedure is complete. run a program without loading.Only use salt that has been specifically designed for dishwashers. After the salt has been poured into the machine. the SALT REFILL indicator light switches off.
If the salt container is not filled. the water softener and the heating element may be damaged as a result .
Rinse aid makes dish DRYING easier. The rinse aid dispenser A should be filled when the RINSE AID REFILL indicator light
in the control panel is lit.
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the tub.
If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results. you can ad just the quantity of rinse aid used.
Setting is complete!
If the rinse aid level is set to 1 (ECO). no rinse aid will be supplied. The LOW RINSE AID indicator light will not be lit if you run out of rinse aid.
A maximum of 4 levels can be set according to the dishwasher model.
The factory setting is for a medium level.

2. Remove detergent residues from the edges of the dispenser and close the cover until it clicks.
3. Close the lid of the detergent dispenser by pulling it up until the closing device is secured in place.
The detergent dispenser automatically opens up at the right time according to the program.
If all-in-one detergents are used. we recommend using the TABLET button. because it adjusts the program so that the best washing and drying results are always achieved.
The Eco 50° wash cycle adheres to the regulation standard AS/NZS 2007. Although it has a longer duration than other wash cycles it uses less energy and is less harmful to the environment.
+) Not all options can be used simultaneously.
+*) The duration of the program shown on the display or in the booklet is an estimate calculated on standard conditions. The actual time may vary depending on many factors such as temperature and pressure of the incoming water. room temperature. amount of detergent. quantity and type of load. load balancing. additional selected options and sensor calibration. The sensor calibration can increase program duration up to 20 min.
Standby consumption: Left-on mode consumption: 5 W - Off mode consumption: 0.5 W
WARNING: Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open. Check that the detergent receptacle is empty after completion of the wash cycle.
Instructions on wash cycle selection.

2. SWITCH ON THE DISHWASHER
Press the ON/OFF button.
3. LOAD THE RACKS
(see LOADING THE RACKS)
4. FILLING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER (see PROGRAMS TABLE).
5. CHOOSE THE PROGRAM AND CUSTOMISE THE CYCLE
Select the most appropriate program in accordance with the type of crockery and its soiling level (see PROGRAMS DESCRIPTION) by pressing the P button.
Select the desired options (see OPTIONS AND FUNCTIONS).
6. START
Start the wash cycle by pressing the START/PAUSE button. When the program starts you hear a beep.
7. END OF WASH CYCLE
The end of the wash cycle is indicated by beeps and by the flashing of the wash cycle indicator on the panel.. Open the door and switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
Wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery - to avoid burns. Unload the racks. beginning with the lower one.
The machine will switch off automatically during certain extended periods of inactivity. in order to minimise electricity consumption.If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if it has been rinsed with water before being placed in the dishwasher. reduce the amount of detergent used accordingly.
If a wrong program was selected. it is possible to change it. provided that it has only just begun: press and hold the ON/OFF button. the machine will switch off.
Switch the machine back on using the ON/OFF button and select the new wash cycle and any desired options; start the cycle by pressing the START/PAUSE button.
Without switching off the machine. open the door and place the crockery inside the dishwasher. Close the door and press the START/PAUSE button the cycle will begin from the point at which it was interrupted.
If the door is opened during the wash cycle. or if there is a power cut. the cycle stops. Once the door has been closed or the electricity supply is restored. to start again the cycle from where it was interrupted. press the START/PAUSE button.
Before loading the baskets. remove all food residues from the crockery and empty the glasses. You do not need to rinse beforehand under running water.
Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not tip over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely. thus allowing the water to reach every surface and flow freely.
Warning: lids. handles. trays and frying pans do not prevent the sprayer arms from rotating.
Place any small items in the cutlery basket. Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower basket because in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher washing performance.
After loading the appliance. make sure that the sprayer arms can rotate freely.
To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the dishwasher please run a high temperature program at least one a month. Use a tea spoon of detergent and run it without the loading to clean your appliance.
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can change and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass (e.g. crystal objects) can become opaque after a number of wash cycles too.
Load delicate and light dishes: glasses. cups. saucers. low salad bowls.
ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF THE UPPER RACK
|
The height of the upper rack can be adjusted: high position to place bulky crockery in the lower basket and low position to make the most of the tip-up supports by creating more space upwards and avoid collision with the items loaded into lower rack. The upper rack is equipped with a Upper Rack height adjuster (see figure). without pressing the levers. lift it up by simply holding the rack sides. as soon as the rack is stable in its upper position. To restore to the lower position. press the levers A at the sides of the rack and move the basket downwards. We strongly recommend that you do not adjust the height of the rack when it is loaded. NEVER raise or lower the basket on one side only. |
 |
FOLDABLE FLAPS WITH ADJUSTABLE POSITION
| The side foldable flaps can be positioned at three different heights to optimize the arrangement of crockery inside the rack. Wine glasses can be placed safely in the foldable flaps by inserting the stem of each glass into the corresponding slots. For optimum drying results incline the foldable flaps more. To change the inclination. pull up the foldable flap. slide it slightly and position it as you wish. |  |
LOWER RACK
For pots. lids. plates. salad bowls. cutlery etc. Large plates and lids should ideally be placed at the sides to avoid interferences with the spray arm. The lower rack has tip-up supports which can be used in a vertical position when arranging plates or in a horizontal position (lower) to load pans and salad bowls easily.
CUTLERY BASKET
|
The basket is equipped with top grilles for improved cutlery arrangement. The cutlery basket should be positioned only at the front of the lower rack. Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be placed in the cutlery basket with the points facing downwards or they must be positioned horizontally in the tip-up compartments on the upper rack. |
 |
Regularly clean the filter assembly so that the filters do not clog and that the waste water flows away correctly.
The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food residues from the washing water and then recirculate the water: to obtain the best washing results. you need to keep them clean.
The dishwasher must not be used without filters or if the filter is loose.
After several washes. check the filter assembly and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water. using a non-metallic brush and following the instructions below:
NEVER REMOVE the wash-cycle pump protection (black detail) (Fig 4).
After cleaning the filters. re-place the filter assembly and fix it in position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient operation of the dishwasher.
On occasions. food residue may become encrusted onto the spray arms and block the holes used to spray the water. It is therefore recommended that you check the arms from time to time and clean them with a small non-metallic brush.
To remove the upper spray arm. turn the plastic locking ring in an anti clockwise direction. The upper spray arm should be replaced so that the side with the greater number of holes is facing upwards.
The lower spray arm may be removed by pulling it upwards.
CLEANING THE WATER INLET HOSE
If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended period of time. let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of impurities before performing the necessary connections. If this precaution is not taken. the water inlet could become blocked and damage the dishwasher.
Your dishwasher may not work properly.
Before contacting the Service Centre check if the problem can be solved by going through the following list.
The dishwasher won’t start or does not respond to commands.
The dishwasher won’t drain.
The dishwasher makes excessive noise.
The dishes are not clean.
