Using your appliance  
Loading your appliance  
The upper basket  
Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of  
food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing  
the performance.  
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates,  
saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad  
bowls, cups and glasses.  
Do not load very small items which can fall through the  
baskets.  
Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water  
can reach all surfaces.  
Light items (plastic bowls  
etc.) should be loaded in the  
upper basket and arranged  
so they do not move.  
The lower basket  
The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates,  
salad bowls, cutlery etc.  
Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the  
edge of the basket, ensuring that the spray arms can turn  
freely.  
Before closing the door,  
ensure that the spray arms  
can rotate freely.

Adjusting the height of the upper basket  
If washing very large plates you can load them in the lower  
basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position.

The cutlery basket  
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a  
potential hazard.  
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives  
must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.  
Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as  
knives.  
To move to the higher position proceed as follows:  
1. Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket  
outwards and slide the basket out.  
2. Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops  
(A) in their original position.  
Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with  
the handles facing downwards.  
When the basket is in the  
higher position you will not be  
able to use the cup rack(s).  
If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket,  
obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the  
handles facing upwards.  
Mix spoons with other cutlery  
to prevent them from sticking  
together.

UI10  
After loading your machine always close the door, as an  
open door can be a hazard.

the variations of the power supply.  
Operating sequence  
1. Check that the baskets have been  
loaded correctly and that the spray  
arms can rotate freely  
6. End of the washing programme  
The dishwasher will automatically stop.  
The On/Off indicator light remains on until the On/Off  
push button is depressed.  
Only the On/Off integrated indicator light will remain on.  
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push  
button.  
2. Turn on the water tap  
Open the door and wait a few minutes before removing  
the dishes; in this way they will be cooler and the drying  
will be improved.  
Water may appear on the sides and door of the  
dishwasher as the stainless steel will eventually become  
cooler than the dishes.  
3. Close the dishwasher door  
4. Set and start of the programme  
Turn the programme selector dial clockwise until the  
letter of the programme you wish to select corresponds  
with the programme marker on the control panel.  
Unloading the dishwasher  
Depress the On/Off push button.  
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should  
therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from  
the appliance.  
The On/Off indicator light will come on and the machine  
will start.  
Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this  
will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the  
dishes in the lower one.  
5. Interrupting a washing programme  
in progress  
Interrupt a washing programme in progress ONLY if  
it’s absolutely necessary.  
When the washing programme has finished, it is  
recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the  
water tap turned off.  
Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is  
opened. Open the door carefully.  
To interrupt a washing programme  
a) Open the dishwasher door; the programme will stop.  
Close the door; the programme will start from the  
point in which it was interrupted.  
b) Press the On/Off push button (in this case the On/Off  
indicator light turns off). Press the On/Off push button  
again; the programme will start from the point in  
which it was interrupted.

Fitting under a counter  
Levelling  
Good levelling is essential for correct closure and sealing of  
the door. When the appliance is correctly levelled, the door will  
not catch on the levelling spacers on either side of the cabinet.  
If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the  
adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.  
(kitchen worktop or sink)  
By removing the machine’s worktop, you can install it under a  
close fitting sink unit or a pre-existing top, providing the  
dimensions of the recess correspond to those shown in the  
picture.

Proceed as follows:  
-
Remove the machine’s worktop by unscrewing the two  
front retaining screws, pull from the front and slide out the  
rear slots, lifting the worktop.  
Insert the machine after adjusting height and levelling with the  
adjustable feet. When inserting the machine, ensure that the  
water inlet and drain hoses are not kinked or squashed.

Setting the water softener  
Filling with salt  
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to  
remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would  
have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the  
appliance.  
Attention!  
Only use salt specifically designed for use in  
dishwashers.  
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in  
dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water  
softener.  
Only fill with salt just before starting a washing  
programme. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty  
water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the  
bottom of the machine, which may cause corrosion.  
The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is.  
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, Clarke,  
French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).  
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of  
the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise  
you on the hardness of the water in your area.  
The dishwasher is factory set at level 2.  
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be  
adjusted.  
To fill:  
1. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container.  
If your water is level 1 it is already soft and therefore  
there is no need to use salt.  
In this case adjust the water softener on level 1 without  
using salt.  
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary  
only before filling with salt for the first time).  
3. Using the funnel (if  
provided), pour in the salt  
until the container is full.  
Do not worry if water over  
flows from the unit when  
filling with salt, this is quite  
normal.  
Only for dishwasher models with salt refill  
indicator light:  
if the water softener has been adjusted on level 1 without use  
of salt, the salt refill indicator light on the control panel will  
always remain illuminated when the machine is switched on.

Rinse aid  
Use of detergent  
Only use detergents specifically designed for use in  
dishwashers.  
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse,  
ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying.  
The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds  
about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40  
dishwashing programmes, depending upon the dosage  
setting.  
We recommend the use of Finish detergents which are  
available in the following options:  
Finish Double Action Tablets. Each tablet has the exact  
amount of detergent required, simply place in the dispenser.  
Finish Powder recommended for every day use.  
Finish Liquid Gel ideal for every day use. As the gel is extra  
gentle is it recommended for fine bone china.  
Filling with rinse aid  
1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.  
If using powder detergents proceed as follows:  
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full.  
The indicator (B) will be completely dark.  
1. Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D).  
2. Add the detergent according to the recommended  
quantity given in the "Washing programmes" chart  
(see "Instruction Book - Part 2").  
As all detergents are not the same, you should also  
consult the instructions on the packet.  
3. Always close the lid.  
4. If the programme has a prewash add a little amount of  
detergent over the lid of the dispenser. Follow the  
recommended quantity given in the "Washing  
BR01  
BR03  
programmes" chart (see "Instruction Book - Part 2").  
3. Top up the rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes  
clear.  
(Only for models with rinse aid indicator light)  
Top up with rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light on  
the control panel illuminates.  
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.  
Do not put liquid detergent in the rinse aid compartment.  
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent  
cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.  
DE17  
DE02  
If using detergent in tablets proceed as  
follows:  
1. For all programmes; place 1 tablet inside the detergent  
Adjusting the dose  
dispenser.  
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the  
dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (C)  
(position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).  
2. Always close the lid.  
3. For all programmes with prewash; place a portion of a  
further tablet on the lid of the detergent dispenser.  
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on  
the dishes after washing.  
If your dishwasher has a SID dispenser and you require a  
prewash, put the extra detergent into the SID dispenser  
and not on the lid of the detergent dispenser.  
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.  
Insufficient quantities of detergent will produce poor  
washing results, whereas an excessive amount of  
detergent will not improve washing results and is also  
wasteful.  
Using no more than the correct amount also contributes  
to reducing pollution.  
BR02  
Compact detergents with enzymes  
In these compact powders the environmentally unfriendly  
components have been replaced by natural enzymes and  
other more biodegradable substances.  
The enzymes deploy their full dirt dissolving power at a  
temperature as low as 50°C.  
By choosing the 50°C programmes (if available) you can  
therefore achieve the same cleaning results that would  
otherwise be achievable only with 65°C programmes and  
conventional detergents.These new compact powders are  
generally phosphate-free.

Hints and tips  
To save energy  
Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and  
wait until the dishwasher is full before washing.  
If necessary run the Rinse and Hold programme (see  
"Washing Programmes" chart) so that any food scraps do not  
become caked on the dishes while you are waiting to run the  
complete wash programme.  
Do not prewash dishes under running water.  
For best washing and drying results  
Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very  
heavily soiled pots and pans.  
Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. upside-down.  
Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the water  
drains off easily.  
Avoid contact between the dishes as far as possible.  
Items not suitable for dishwashers  
The following items should not be washed in the  
dishwasher (unless they are sold as dishwasher proof):  
- Cutlery with wooden or horn handles or glued parts  
- bronze cutlery  
- saucepans with wooden handles  
- aluminium ware  
- crystal ware  
- leaded glass  
- plastic items  
- antique or fine decorated china  
Certain types of decoration can discolour when washed in a  
dishwasher.  
Crystal-ware and plastic objects, if not guaranteed dishwasher  
proof should be washed by hand.  
Certain types of glass can also become opaque after being  
washed several times in a dishwasher.  
A chemical reaction can occur between silver cutlery and  
stainless steel cutlery. As a precaution, do not wash together.  
Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items.  
Aluminium tends to go black, copper, pewter and brass tend to  
stain.  
If in doubt check with manufacturer of the item.  
When buying new dishes, ensure that they are  
dishwasher proof.  
For best results we recommend the use of Finish detergents, rinse aid and salt.

Maintenance and cleaning  
Internal cleaning  
External cleaning  
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse  
aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.  
Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel  
with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral  
detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or  
solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).  
We recommend the use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner every  
3 months or run a 65°C wash without dishes using detergent.  
Regular use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner cleans  
inaccessible parts, eliminates unpleasant food odours and

safety measure not be observed.  
Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been  
used in another appliance.  
The locknut must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks.  
Avoid bends or kinks in the hose which could prevent or slow  
down the water supply.  
If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have  
not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few  
minutes before connecting the inlet hose. This will prevent  
deposits of sand or rust clogging the inlet hose.
