dishes.
G Start the wash programme.
- Soften remnants of burnt food in pans
G When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note:
- Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the
spray arms .
- Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with
the opening downwards so that water cannot collect in the
container or a deep base.
- Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one
another, or cover each other.
- To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch.
- Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.
G Plastic items and pans with teflon have a tendancy to
retain water drops; these items will not dry as well as
porcelain and steel items.
For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery/dishes
are not suitable:
are of limited suitability:
- Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or
mother-of-pearl handles
- Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is specifically
marked as being dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.
- Plastic items that are not heat resistant
- Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently
- Older cutlery with glued parts that is not
temperature resistant
- Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to discolour
during washing. Left-overs, e.g. egg white, egg yolk and
mustard often cause discolouring and staining on silver.
Therefore always clean left-overs from silver immediately, if
it is not to be washed straight after use.
- Bonded cutlery items or dishes
- Pewter or copper items
- Lead crystal glass
- Some types of glass can become dull after a large number
of washes
- Steel items subject to rusting
- Wooden platters
- Items made from synthetic fibres
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
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.
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.
Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with
the handles facing downwards. 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.
For best results we
recommend you to use the
cutlery grid provided (if the
size and dimensions of the
cutlery allow it).

The upper basket
Adjusting the height of the upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates,
saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad
bowls, cups and glasses.
If washing very large plates you can load them in the lower
basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position.
Arrange items on and
underneath the cup racks so
that water can reach all
surfaces.
Glasses with long stems can
be placed upside down in the
cup racks.

(1) Testing programme for EN 50242 (see "Hints for Test Centres"). This programme, developed for the use of detergents with
enzymes, allows you to achieve, with reduced consumption of energy the same cleaning results that would otherwise be
obtained only with the 65°C programmes and conventional detergents. To compensate the lower temperature, the duration of
washing and drying have been extended.
(2) The consumption values are intended as a guide and depends on the pressure and the temperature of the water and also by
the variations of the power supply.

5. To interrupt a washing programme in
progress
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should
therefore be allowed to cool down before removing from
the appliance.
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.
Interrupt a washing programme in progress ONLY if
it’s absolutely necessary
Attention! Hot steam may escape when the door is
opened. Open the door carefully.
When the washing programme has finished, it is
recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the
water tap turned off.

IN05
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.
If the dishwasher is later used as a free-standing appliance,
the original worktop must be re-mounted.
The plinth on free-standing appliances is not adjustable.
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 either side of the cabinet.
If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten the
adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly level.

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
BR03
BR01
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

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.
Compact detergents with enzymes
BR02
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
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse
aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.
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
helps prevent the build-up of limescale.
The dishwasher must not be used without filters.
Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will
produce poor washing results.
Cleaning the filters is vital to ensure correct operation of
the machine.
External cleaning
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....).
Cleaning the filters
The filters in the base of the washing compartment are to
large extent self-cleaning. Nevertheless the filters should be
checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will
degrade the washing result.

Installation
Any electrical work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or
competent person.
Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for
connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the
diameter of the hose provided.
Any plumbing work required to install this appliance
should be carried out by a qualified plumber or competent
person.
The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is
draining as this could cause the water to siphon back into the
machine.
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a
drain.
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

Attention!
Our appliances are supplied with a with a security device
to protect against the return of dirty water back into the
machine.
Water supply connections
This dishwasher must be plumbed into a cold water supply.
If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve"
incorporated this can prevent the correct draining of your
dishwasher. We advise you therefore to remove it.
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the
"Technical specifications" (Instruction Book - Part 2).
Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average
mains pressure in your area.
The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which can be
turned either to the left or the right to suit the installation.
Electrical connection
This appliance must be earthed.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility should this
safety measure not be observed.
Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been
used in another appliance.
The appliance should not be connected to the electrical
supply by means of an extension cable.
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.
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for the
socket, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fitted.
Important
The wires on the mains lead are coloured in accordance with
the following code:
Green and Yellow - Earth
Water outlet hose connection
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following
ways:
1. To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the underside of the
work surface. This will prevent waste water from the sink
running into the machine.
2. Hooked over the edge of the sink using the special
curved plastic guide (if provided).
Blue
Brown
- Neutral
- Live
If you fit your own plug,
the colours of the wires
in the mains lead of
your appliance may not
correspond with the
E
markings identifying the
terminals in your plug.

in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or the earth
symbol
or coloured green and yellow.
The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm
(minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the
dishwasher.
2. Connect the Blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug
which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured black.
The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the
dishwasher
3. Connect the Brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug
which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red.
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent
or slow down the discharge of water.
The plug moulded onto the lead incorporates a 13amp BSI362
fuse. Only ASTA or BSI fuses should be used.
If you use a drain hose extension it must be no longer than 2
metres and its internal diameter must be no smaller than the
diameter of the hose provided.
The plug must not be used if the fuse cover/carrier is lost. The
