  • If the appliance is located in a place where the risk of freezing exists, you must completely drain the water that has remained in the machine. Turn off the water tap, disconnected the water inlet hose from the tap and allow the interior water to drain.

INSTALLATION

Positioning the machine

When considering the location for the dishwasher, ensure that there is adequate space to enable loading and unloading of the dishes.

  • Do not put your machine in any location where the ambient temperature can 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 and drain. You need to position 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 so that you can comfortably move it 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 feet so that it is level and stable. Proper positioning of the machine ensures problem-free opening and closing of its door.
  • If the door of your machine does not close properly, check if the machine is stable on the floor; if not, adjust the feet and ensure it is level and stable.

Water connection

Ensure that the indoor plumbing is suitable for installing a dishwasher and complies with AS/NZS 3500.1. 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 main’s water supply or the indoor plumbing, and to avoid problems of staining and formation of deposits after washing.

Water inlet hose

Do not use the water inlet hose of your old machine, you must use the new water inlet hose supplied with your machine. Before connecting the water inlet hose to the water tap, ensure clean water is flowing from the tap 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 at a maximum of 1 MPa. If the water pressure is above 1 MPa, a pressure-relief valve should be installed.

WARNING Only turn the locking nut to secure hose – do not turn the hose.

  • The first time you use the appliance, make sure that there is no leakage.
  • The water inlet hose has a safety valve and a sheath with an inner mains cable.
  • After the connections are made, the tap should be turned on fully and checked for water tightness. For the safety of your machine, make sure to always turn off the water inlet tap after each wash program is finished.

NOTE: A water tempering valve is required if the water temperature is over 60°C.

CAUTION

Always use new hoses when you connect the appliance to the water supply. Old hoses must not be used. The water inlet hose must be examined at an interval of twelve months for deterioration and replaced if necessary.

In order to pass the safety valve through the kitchen cabinets, an opening of at least 45mm x 90mm is needed.

Water drain hose

If you connect the water drain hose to a trap spigot under the sink, remove the plastic membrane. If you do not remove the entire membrane, remaining food can cause blockage in the drain hose spigot. Ensure a hose clamp is used to secure the hose to the spigot.

The water drain hose can be connected either directly to the water drain hole or to the sink outlet spigot. Using a hose hook (if available), the water can be drained directly into the sink by positioning the hose hook over the edge of the sink.

This connection should be at a minimum of 50cm and at a maximum of 110cm above the base of the dishwasher.

WARNING

Maximum drain hose length is 4m. Longer hose length will prevent correct draining, and result in poor wash performance.

Electrical Connection

The plug of your machine should be connected to an earthed outlet that supplies suitable voltage and current.

If there is no earthing installation, have a competent electrician carry out an earthing installation. 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 designed for 220-240 V. The machine should not be plugged in during installation.

  • Always use the molded 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 program 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.

Fitting the machine undercounter

If you wish to fit your machine undercounter, check whether you have sufficient space under your countertop and whether the wiring-plumbing is suitable to do so.

  1. To ensure the stability of the dishwasher for an underbench installation, if the underbench dimension is greater than 820mm, any gap between the dishwasher and the underside of the benchtop should be bridged with a packing piece. This may be achieved by wedging a piece of timber between the dishwasher and the benchtop as shown
  2. If required, remove the worktop as shown in the illustration.
  3. To remove the worktop, remove the screws that hold the worktop which are located at the rear of the machine; then push the front panel 1cm from the front towards the rear and lift it.
  4. Adjust the machine feet according to the slope of the foor.
  5. Fit your machine by pushing it undercounter without letting the hoses get crushed or bent.

WARNING

After removal of worktop, ensure the opening for the dishwasher is according to the following dimensions.

PREPARING FOR USE

Detergent usage

Use a detergent specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers You can find powder, gel and tablet detergents in the market 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 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

The Detergent pod has level lines inside It is possible to measure the right detergent amount using these lines

The detergent pod can take a maximum of 40cm3 detergent

Open the dishwasher detergent pod and pour 25cm3 if your dishes are heavily soiled or 15cm3 if they are less soiled

To close the detergent container, push the cover as shown until it locks.

PREPARING FOR USE

You may have to add more detergent into your machine, depending on the degree of soil and the water hardness in your area

If your dishes are from the previous day and there is dried food waste on them, or if you have fully loaded the dishwasher, pour 5cm3 detergent onto the base of the door and start your machine

Combined detergent

Detergent manufacturers also produce combined detergents called “2 in 1”, “3 in 1” or “5 in 1” etc “2 in 1” detergents contain detergent + rinse aid When using “2 in 1” detergents make sure to check the specifications of the tablet

Other tablet detergents contain detergent + rinse aid + various extra functions

Generally, combined detergents produce suitable results under certain usage conditions only

These detergents contain rinse aid and/or other additives in preset amounts

Points to consider when using these type of products:

  • Always make sure to check the specifications of the product you will use or whether or not it is a combined product
  • Check if the detergent used is appropriate for the hardness of mains water that machine relates to
  • Observe the instructions on packaging when using such products
  • If such detergents are in the form of tablets, never put them into the interior section or the cutlery basket of the dishwasher Always put the tablets into the detergent compartment in the detergent dispenser
  • They produce good results for certain types of usage only If you are using this type of detergent, you need to contact the manufacturers and find out about the suitable conditions of use
  • When the conditions of use of such products and the machine settings are appropriate, they ensure savings in salt and/or rinse aid consumption
  • Contact the detergent manufacturer if you are not obtaining good wash results (if your dishes stay calcareous and wet) after having used 2 in 1 or 3 in 1 detergents The scope of warranty for your machine does not cover any complaints caused by the use of these types of detergents

Recommended usage:

For better results while using combined detergents, add rinse aid into your machine and adjust the rinse aid setting to the lowest position

When you give up using combined detergents

  • Fill the rinse aid compartment.
  • Set the suitable rinse aid setting.

Filling with rinse aid and making the setting

To fill the rinse aid compartment, open the rinse-aid compartment cap.

In order to set rinse aid level, follow below steps:

  • Turn on the machine by pressing the On/Off button.
  • Press the Up button for at least 5 seconds immediately after the machine is turned on.
  • Release the Up button when all leds blinks twice. The last setting level is displayed.
  • Press Up or Down button to increase or decrease the hardness level.
  • Turn off the machine to save the setting.

The factory setting is “4”.

If the dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, increase the level. If blue stains form on your dishes, decrease the level.

CAUTION

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 paper towel or cloth.

LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER

If your dishes are correctly placed in the dishwasher, you will be using it in the best way in terms of energy consumption, washing and drying performance

There are two separate baskets for you to load your dishes into your machine 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 tea plates, 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 wont remain steady and can be damaged

It is recommended that thin narrow items be placed 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, use the cutlery grid in order to obtain the best result

To avoid any possible injuries, always place long-handle and sharp-pointed dishes such as serving fork or bread knife with their sharp points facing down or horizontally on the baskets

CAUTION

Place your dishes into your machine in a way that they will not prevent the upper and lower spray arms from spinning

Top basket cup rack

Height Adjustable Rack

These racks are designed to increase the capacity of the top basket You can place your glasses and cups on the racks You can adjust the height of these racks Thanks to this feature, you can place different sizes of glasses under these racks
