INSTRUCTIONS WHEN USING YOUR DISHWASHER
This dishwasher is not designed for commercial use. It is intended for use in domestic households and
in similar working and residential environments such as:
• Shops
• Oces and showrooms
and by residents in establishments such as:
• Hostels and guest houses.
It must only be used as a domestic appliance as specified in this user manual, for cleaning domestic
crockery and cutlery.
Any other usage is not supported by the manufacturer and could be dangerous.
The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage resulting from incorrect or improper use or
operation.
Do not use solvents in the dishwasher. Danger of explosion.
Do not inhale or ingest dishwasher detergent. Dishwasher detergents contain irritant or corrosive
ingredients which can cause burning in the nose, mouth and throat if swallowed, or inhibit breathing.
Consult a doctor immediately if detergent has been swallowed or inhaled.
Avoid leaving the door open unnecessarily, as you could trip over it.
Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the dishwasher to tip and be damaged, and
you could get injured.
Only use detergent and rinse aid formulated for domestic dishwashers.
Do not use washing‐up liquid.
Do not use the strong acid cleaning agent.
Do not fill the rinse aid reservoir with powder or liquid detergent. This will cause serious damage to the
reservoir.
Inadvertently filling the salt reservoir with powder or liquid dishwasher detergent will damage the water
softener. Make sure you have picked up the correct packet of dishwasher salt before filling the salt
reservoir.
Please only use special coarse grained dishwasher salt for reactivation, as other salts may contain
insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the softener.
In an appliance with a cutlery basket (depending on model), cutlery is cleaned and dried more if placed
in eciently the basket with the handles downwards. However, to avoid the risk of injury, place knives
and forks etc. with the handles upwards.
Plastic items which cannot withstand being washed in hot water, such as disposable plastic
containers, or plastic cutlery and crockery should not be cleaned in the dishwasher.
The high temperatures in the dishwasher may cause them to melt or lose shape.
On models with Delay Start function, make sure that the dispenser is dry before adding detergent.
Wipe dry if necessary. Detergent will clog if poured into a damp dispenser and may not be thoroughly
dispersed.
Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their points down or
placed in a horizontal position.

WATER SOFTENER
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits
may form on 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.

LOADING THE SALT INTO THE SOFTENER
Always use salt intended for use with dishwasher.
The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:
ATTENTION
• Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers. All other types of salt are not specifically
designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of
damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer will not cover under warranty nor
is liable for any damages 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 split, remaining of the bottom of the machine for
any period of time, which may cause stains and corrosion.
• After the first wash cycle the control panel light expires.
1. Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from
the salt container.
Open
Open
2. If you are fi lling the container for the fi rst time, fi ll 2/3 of its volume with water (around 1 liter).
3. Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and pour about
1.5kg of salt. It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of
the salt container.
4. Carefully screw the cap back on.
5. Usually, the salt warning light will turn o after the salt container is fi lled with salt.
• The salt container must be refilled when the salt warning light on the control panel comes on.
Although enough salt remains in the container, the indicator light may not switch o until the salt
fully dissolves.
If there is no salt warning light on the control panel, you can judge when to load the salt into the
softener by the cycles that the dishwasher has run.
• If a lot of salt is spilt inside the dishwasher, run a pre wash program to reduce the spillage.

USING THE DETERGENT AND WATER SOFTENER
USING DETERGENT
All dishwasher cycles require detergent in the detergent compartment.
Add the correct amount of detergent for the selected cycle to ensure the best performance.
CAUTION: Use dishwasher detergent only. Regular detergent produces too much foam, which may
decrease the dishwasher’s performance or cause malfunction.
WARNING: Do not swallow dishwasher detergent. Avoid breathing in the fumes. Dishwasher
detergent contains irritants and caustic chemicals that can induce respiratory conditions. If you have
swallowed dishwasher detergent or inhaled the fumes, seek medical attention immediately.
WARNING: Keep dishwasher detergent out of the reach of children.
Filling the detergent dispenser
1. Open the detergent dispenser fl ap by pushing the detergent
dispenser release catch.
The flap is always open at the end of a dishwashing cycle.
2. Add the recommended amount of detergent to the main
wash detergent compartment.
3. Close the fl ap by sliding it to the left and then pressing it
down.
There is no separate button that is specific to using tablet
detergents.
4. For better cleaning result, especially if you have very dirt items, add a small amount (about
8g) of detergent on the door. That will act in prewash phase.

USING RINSE AID
Filling the rinse aid reservoir
When the Rinse Refill indicator lights up on the control panel, refill with rinse aid.
Your dishwasher has been designed to use liquid rinse aid only.
Using a powdered rinse aid will clog the reservoir opening and cause the dishwasher to
malfunction.
Rinse aid improves the drying performance of the dishwasher.
CAUTION: Do not add regular detergent to the rinse aid reservoir.
1. Remove the rinse aid reservoir cap by lifting up the handle.
Adding rinse aid to tablet detergents will improve drying
performance.
2. Fill the rinse aid reservoir with rinse aid.
Use the viewing port when filling the rinse aid reservoir.
CAUTION: Do not fill the reservoir above the maximum
level. Excess rinse aid can overflow during the wash cycle.
3. Close the cap after all.

Loading the dishwasher racks
For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines.
Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your
model.
Attention before or after loading the dishwasher racks
Scrape o any large amounts of leftover food. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running
water. Place objects in the dishwasher in the following order:
1. Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are stood upside down.
2. Curved items, or those with recesses, should be at a slant so that water can run o.
3. Ensure they are stacked securely and can not tip over.
4. Ensure they do not prevent the spray arms from rotating while washing takes place.
Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the racks.
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, coee 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. Always place
glasses, cups & bowls upside down.

CLEANING THE FILTERS
Filtering system
For your convenience, we have placed the drain pump and 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.
1. Main fi lter: Food and soil particles trapped by this fi lter are
pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down
the drain.
2. Coarse fi lter: Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that
could clog the drain are trapped in the coarse fi lter. To remove an
item caught in this fi lter, gently squeeze the tabs on top of this fi lter
and lift it out.
3. Fine fi lter: This fi lter holds soil and food residue in the sump area
and prevents it from being redeposited on the dishes during a cycle.

ATTENTION: Do not put the fine filter upside down.
Filter assembly
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned. The filter eciently
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 assembly, turn it in anti-clockwise direction and lift the filter assembly up. The entire filter
assembly should be cleaned regularly.
To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reinsert the entire
assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat, pressing downward, turning it clockwise
direction.
Open
Open
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.
WARNING: Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place. When cleaning the filters,
do not damage them. Otherwise the filters may not perform as intended and poor wash
results or damage to the internal parts may be encountered.
