CHAPTER -3: INSTALLING THE MACHINE

Recommendations

  • For energy and water saving, remove coarse residues on your dishes before placing the dishes into the machine. Start your machine after having fully loaded it.
  • Use the pre-wash programme only when necessary.
  • Place such hollow items as bowls, glasses and pots into the machine in such a way that they will face down.
  • You are not recommended to overload your machine or load it in a way other than that which is indicated.

Items not suitable for dishwashing:

  • Cigarette ashes, candle leftovers, polish, paint, chemical substances, ironalloy materials;
  • Forks, spoons and knives with wooden or bone, or ivory or nacre-coated handles; glued items,items soiled with abrasive, acidic or base chemicals.
  • Plastic items that are not heat-resistant, copper or tin-coated containers.
  • Aluminium and silver objects (they may discolour, become dull).
  • Certain delicate glass types, porcelains with ornamental printed patterns as they fade even after the first wash; certain crystal items as they lose their transparency over time, adhered cutlery that is not heat-resistant, lead crystal glasses, cutting boards, items manufactured with synthetic fibre;
  • Absorbent items as sponges or kitchen rags are not suitable for dishwashing.

Warning:Take care to buy dishwasher-proof sets in your future purchases.

INSTALLING THE MACHINE

Positioning the machine

  • When determining the installation place, choose an accessible place for easy loading and unloading of the dishes.
  • Do not put your machine in any location where there is the probability for the room temperature to fall below 0°C.
  • Before positioning, take the machine out of its packaging by following the warnings located on the package.
  • Position the machine close to a water tap or drain. You need to site your machine, taking into consideration that its connections will not be altered once they are made.
  • Do not grip the machine by its door or panel in order to move it.
  • Take care to leave a certain clearance from all sides of the machine for moving comfortably back and forth during cleaning.
  • Make sure that the water inlet and outlet hoses do not get squeezed while positioning the machine. Also, make sure that the machine does not stand on the electrical cable.
  • Adjust the machine’s adjustable feet so that it can stand level and balanced. Proper positioning of the machine ensures problem-free opening and closing of the door.
  • If the door of machine does not close properly, check if the machine is stable on the floor; if not, adjust the feet and ensure its stable position.

Water connection

  • İndoor plumbing must be suitable for installing a dishwasher. Also, we recommend that you fit a filter at the entrance of your place or apartment so as to avoid any damage to your machine because of any contamination (sand, clay, rust etc.) that might be occasionally carried in through the mains water supply or the indoor plumbing, and to prevent such complaints as yellowing and formation of deposits after washing.

Water inlet hose

  • Do not use the water inlet hose of your old machine. Use the new one supplied with your machine instead. If you will connect a new or long - unused water inlet hose to your machine ,run water through it for a while before making the connection. Connect the water inlet hose directly to the water inlet tap. The pressure supplied by the tap should be at a minimum of 0.03 Mpa and and at a maximum of 1 Mpa.If the water pressure is above 1 Mpa,a pressure-relief valve should be fitted in between.
  • After making connections, the tap should be turned on fully and checked for water tightness.For the safety of machine, turn off the water inlet tap after finishing each wash programme.

NOTE: Aquastop water etc. spout is used in some models. In case of using Aquastop, a dangerous tension exists.Do not cut the Aquastop water spout. Do not let it get folded or twisted.

Water outlet hose

  • The water drain hose can be connected either directly to the water drain hole or to the sink outlet spigot. Using a special bent pipe (if available), the water can be drained directly into the sink via hooking the bent pipe over the edge of the sink. This connection should be between 50 and 110 cm from the floor plane.

Warning: When a drain hose longer than 4 m is used, the dishes might remain dirty. In that case, SHARP will not accept responsibility

Electrical connection

  • The earthed plug of your machine should be connected to an earthed outlet supplied by suitable voltage and current. If there is no earthing installation, have a competent electrician to carry out it. In case of usage without earthing installed, our company will not be responsible for any loss of usage that might occur.
  • The indoor fuse current value should be 10-16 A.
  • Your machine is set according to 220-240 V. If the mains voltage in your location is 110 V, connect a transformer of 110/220 V and 3000 W inbetween. The machine should not be plugged in during positioning.
  • Always use the coated plug supplied with your machine.
  • Running in low voltage will cause a decline in washing quality.
  • The machine’s electrical cable should be replaced by an authorised service or an authorised electrician only. Failure to do so may lead to accidents.
  • For safety purposes, always make sure to disconnect the plug when a wash programme is finished.
  • In order not to cause an electric shock, do not unplug when your hands are wet.
  • When disconnecting your machine from the mains supply, always pull from the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

CHAPTER -4: PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE

Prior to using the machine for the first time

  • Check whether the electricity and supply water specifications match the values indicated by the installation instructions for the machine.
  • Remove all packaging materials inside the machine.
  • Set the water softener.
  • Add 1 kg salt into the salt compartment and fill with water up to a level at which it will almost overflow.
  • Fill the rinse aid compartment.

PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE

The importance of water decalcification

  • For a good washing function, the dishwasher needs soft, i.e. less calcareous water. Otherwise, white lime residues will remain on the dishes and the interior equipment. This will negatively affect your machine’s washing, drying and shining performance. For this reason, a softener is system used on dishwashers. The softener system has to be refreshed so that it operates with the same performance also during the next wash. For this purpose, dishwasher salt is used.

Filling with salt

  • Use softener salt specifically produced for use in dishwashers. To put softener salt, first remove the lower basket and then open the salt compartment cap by turning it counter clockwise.1 2 At first use fill the compartment with 1kg salt and water 3 at overflowing level If available, using a funnel 4 provided will make filling easier. refit the cap and close it After every 20th-30th wash, add salt into your machine until it fills up (approx. 1 kg). Fill the salt compartment with water at first use only. We recommend to use smallgrained or powder softener salt. Do not put table salt into your machine. Otherwise, the function of the softener compartment may decrease over time. When you start machine, the salt compartment gets filled with water. Therefore, put the softener salt prior to starting your machine. This way, overflowing salt gets immediately cleaned up through the wash operation. If you will not wash any dishes immediately after putting salt, then run a short washing program with an empty machine in order to avoid corrosion on your machine due to the salt overflow while filling in the salt container. In order to understand whether or not the amount of softener salt in machine is sufficient, check the transparent section on the salt compartment cap. There is sufficient salt if the transparent section is green. Salt has to be added if it is not green.

Testing strip

  • The washing effectiveness of your machine depends on the softness of the tap water. For this reason, your machine is equipped with a system that reduces the hardness in mains water supply. The washing effectiveness will increase when the system is correctly set. To find out the water hardness level of water in your area, contact your local water board or determine water hardness level by using the test strip(if available)

If the hardness of the water is above 90 dF (French hardness) or if you are using well water; you are recommended to use filter and water refinement devices. NOTE: Hardness level is adjusted to level 3 as a factory setting

  • After restting the machine, with the door open;
  • While touching the program button 2 turn on the machine with the power button. 1
  • Continue to touch the program button until “SL” appears on the display. 3
  • Release the program touch button when “SL” disappears from the display. 3
  • The current water hardness setting will appear on the display. 3
  • Press the program touch button 2 to select the desired level according to Table of Water Hardness Level Settings.
  • At any pressure on the program touch button 2 will increment the hardness level.
  • The level changes from Level 6 to Level 1 when the program button 2 is pressed
  • To save the setting to memory, power off the machine. 1

Detergent usage

  • Use a detergent specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers.
  • You can find powder,gel, and tablet detergents that have been designed for household dishwashers. Detergent should be put into the compartment prior to starting the machine. Keep your detergents in cool, dry places out of reach of your children.
  • Do not fill detergent into the detergent compartment more than required; otherwise it may cause scratches on your glasses as well as lead to a poorly dissolved detergent.
  • Should you need more information concerning the detergent you will use, contact detergent manufacturers directly.

Filling the detergent compartment

  • Push the latch to open the detergent container as shown in the image. 1 The detergent pod has level lines inside. The detergent pod can take totally 40 cm3 detergent. Open the dishwasher detergent and pour into the larger compartment b 25 cm3 if dishes are heavily soiled or less 15 cm3 .2 If dishes have been kept dirty for a very long time , dried food wastes on them or overly loaded the dishwasher, pour a 5cm3 detergent into the prewash compartment and start machine. You may have to add more detergent into your machine, depending on the degree of soil and on the water hardness level in your area.

Combined detergents

  • Combined detergents may include various properties. Before using the detergent, read the instructions carefully.
  • Generally combined detergents produce sufficent results under certain conditions only.

Points to consider when using this type of products:

  • Check the specifications of the product whether it is combined or not.
  • Check if the detergent used is appropriate for the hardness of mains water.
  • Observe the instructions of products on packagings.
  • Always put the tablets into the detergent compartment in the detergent dispenser.
  • You need to contact the manufacturers and find out about the suitable conditions of use.
  • If you use appropriate products, they ensure savings in salt and/or rinse aid consumption.
  • The scope of warranty for your machine does not cover any complaints caused by the use of these types of detergents.

Recommended usage: If you want to obtain better results while using combined detergents, add salt and rinse aid into your machine and adjust the water hardness setting and the rinse aid setting to the lowest position.

Solubility of the tablet detergents produced by different companies can vary depending on the temperature and time. Therefore, it is not recommended to use such detergents in short programs. It is more suitable to use powder detergents in such programs.

Warning: Should any problem, which you have not encountered before arise with the use of this type of detergents, contact the detergent manufacturers directly.

When you stop using combined detergents

  • Fill the salt and rinse aid compartments.
  • Adjust the water hardness setting to the highest position and run an empty-wash.
  • Adjust the water hardness level.
  • Make the suitable rinse aid setting.

Filling with rinse aid and making the setting

  • Adequate amount of rinse aid prevents white water drops, lime stains, white film stripshaped. It also increases drying performance.
  • To put rinse aid, remove the rinse aid compartment cap by turning it.1 Fill the rinse aid compartment with rinse to add rinse aid level indicator becomes dark;2 refit the cap and close it by turning it in a way that the nails, correspond to one another. By checking the rinse aid level indicator on the detergent dispenser, you can understand whether or not your machine needs rinse aid. A dark indicator b means that there is rinse aid in the compartment, while a light indicator a shows that you need to fill the compartment with rinse aid. The rinse aid level adjuster can be set to a position between 1 and 6. Factory setting for rinse aid is the position 3.
  • You need to increase the degree of the adjuster if water stains form on your dishes after a wash, whereas you need to decrease the degree if a blue stain is left when wiped by hand. 3

Warning: Use only those rinse aid materials which are allowed for use in the machine. As rinse aid residues left as a result of overflowing will create extremely high amounts of foam and thus reduce the washing performance, remove the excess amount of rinse aid by wiping it with a rag.

CHAPTER-5: LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER

LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER

  • Place dishes properly into the machine.
  • There are two seperate baskets to load dishes into your machine.The lower basket is for round and deep items. The upper basket is for thin and narrow items. You are recommended to use the cutlery grid in order to obtain the best result.
  • To avoid any possible injuries, place long-handle and sharp-pointed knives 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.

Dish rack

  • You can place different sizes of glasses under these racks thanks to the adjustable height feature. You can use racks in 2 different heights.

Foldable racks

  • Foldable racks on the upper basket are designed in order to let you place big items easier such as pots, pans, etc. If required, each part can be folded separately, or all of them can be folded and larger spaces can be obtained. To adjust the foldable racks, either raising them upwards,or fold them down.

Top basket height adjustment while it is full

  • The basket height adjustment mechanism on the top basket of your machine is designed to let you adjust the height of your top basket upwards or downwards, without removing it from your machine when it is full, and create large spaces at the top or bottom area of your machine as needed. Basket of your machine is set to upper position in factory settings. In order to raise your basket, hold it from both sides and pull it upwards. In order to lower it, hold it from both sides again, and leave it. In loaded basket adjustment mechanism, make sure that both sides are in the same position. (up or down)
