Operating sequence
1. Check the filters
9. At the end of the washing
programme
Ensure they are clean and properly positioned
(see "Maintenance and cleaning" - Instruction book
part 1).
At the end of the programme the dishwasher will
automatically stop.
The ON-OFF indicator light remains on until the
ON-OFF push button is depressed.
2. Check that there is rinse aid and
salt
10. Switch off the dishwasher
(See "Instruction book - part 1")
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON-OFF
push button.
Wait 15/20 minutes before opening the
dishwasher’s door; in this way you will avoid
burning yourself when removing the dishes and
avoid also the damage of the nearby furniture
caused by the escape of steam.
3. Load the dishes
Remove any scraps of food.
Pull the lower basket out and arrange the
saucepans, plates and cutlery in it.
Pull the upper basket out and arrange the plates,
saucers, glasses and cups etc. in it.
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.
Slide the baskets back into the machine.
4. Ensure that the spray arms can
rotate freely
When the washing programme has finished, it
is recommended that the dishwasher is
unplugged and the water tap turned off.
In general it is not advisable to open the door
while the machine is working; if the door is
opened however, a safety device ensures that
the machine stops.
5. Measure out detergent
Add the required amount of detergent into the
dispenser according to the "Washing programmes"
chart.
Close the detergent dispenser lid.
Important!
7. Set the programme
Care must be taken if the door is opened during
the hot phase or immediately after a
programme has finished, as steam may escape.
The selection of a programme occurs with the door
partially opened.
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.
If necessary select the temperatures of the main
wash according to the instructions in the “Washing
programmes” chart (see Required push buttons).
8. Start the programme
Close the dishwasher door.
Depress the ON-OFF push button.
The ON-OFF indicator light will come on and the
machine will start.
If you wish to interrupt the washing programme at
any time press this button again.

Using your appliance
Loading your appliance
Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps
of food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently
reducing the performance.
Do not load very small items which can fall
through the baskets.
UI61
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 upper spray arm
can turn freely.
The two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can be
easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls.
UI24
To lower the prongs:
-
Slightly pull them upwards and let them drop down
(see picture).
-
To bring them back to the standing position, just pull
them up again.
UI84
UI83
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.
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.
Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel cutlery.
Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the others.

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.
Arrange items 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.
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray
arms can rotate freely.
US69
Adjusting the height of the upper
basket
A
If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm
in diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after
moving the upper basket to the higher position.
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.
RC01
When the top basket is in the higher position it
will only take plates up to 20 cm in diameter
and you will not be able to use the raised cup
racks.
After loading your machine always close the
door, as an open door can be a hazard.

in order to align the machine with other kitchen units.
Simply unscrew the two front retaining screws, move the
top to the required position and then retighten the screws.
Fitting under a counter
(kitchen worktop or sink)
IN02
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.
450
Insert the machine after adjusting height and levelling with
the adjustable feet (see Instruction book - Part 1).

Before use
Before using your dishwasher for the first
time:
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply
with the installation instructions
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then
fill with salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
Setting the water softener
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.
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).
Water softener adjustment
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.
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.
AA01
Adjustment on the machine
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.

Filling with salt
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.
SR15
1. Unscrew the cap of the salt container.
The salt container will require topping up periodically.
According to the model, an indicator reminds you when
filling with salt:
A) The salt cap has a refill indicator window in the centre.
A green float is clearly visible when there is salt inside
the container, and almost disappears when the salt has
finished reminding you to add salt.
SR16
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container
(this is necessary only before filling with
salt for the first time).
SR11
SR17
B) A salt indicator light on the control panel will come on
when the salt has finished.
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt
until the container is full.
The salt indicator light on the control panel can
remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has
been replenished, assuming the dishwasher
remains switched on. If you are using salts that
take longer to dissolve then this can take longer.
The function of the machine is not affected..
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling
with salt, this is quite normal.
SR18
4. Remove any trace of salt on the screw thread
or on the gasket.
SR19
5. Screw on the cap tightly.

Rinse aid
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.
Filling with rinse aid
1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full.
The indicator (B) will be completely dark.
3. Top up the rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes
A
clear.
BR01
Only for dishwasher models with rinse aid
indicator light:

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.

Adjusting the dose
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).

Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots
on the dishes after washing.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.

Use of detergent
Only use detergents specifically designed
for use in dishwashers.
We recommend the use of Finish detergents which are
available in the following options:
Min = 15 g
Max = 30 g
Finish Double Action Tablets. Each tablet has the exact
amount of detergent required, simply place in the dispenser.
D
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.
M A X
M I N
If using powder detergents proceed as
follows:
DE17
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
programmes" chart (see "Instruction Book - part 2").
DE02
If using detergent in tablets proceed as
follows:
1. For all programmes; place 1 tablet inside the detergent
dispenser.
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.
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
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 "Bio" 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
Items not suitable for dishwashers
Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal
and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing.
The following items should not be washed in the
dishwasher (unless they are sold as dishwasher
proof):
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.
- Cutlery with wooden or horn handles or glued parts
- bronze cutlery
- saucepans with wooden handles
- aluminium ware
Do not prewash dishes under running water.
- crystal ware
- leaded glass
For best washing and drying results
- plastic items
Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very
heavily soiled pots and pans.
- antique or fine decorated china
Certain types of decoration can discolour when washed in
a dishwasher.
Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. upside-down.
Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the
water drains off easily.
Crystal-ware and plastic objects, if not guaranteed
dishwasher proof should be washed by hand.
Avoid contact between the dishes as far as possible.
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.
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.
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket.
2. The dishwasher filter system comprises a coarse/fine
filter, microfilter and a flat filter.
Unlock the filter system using a handle on the
microfilter, and remove.

4
3. Turn the handle about / a turn anticlockwise and
MA15
remove.
4. Take hold of the coarse/fine filter (A - 1/2) (B - 1) by the
handle with the hole and remove from the microfilter
(A - 3) (B - 2).
A
B
5. Clean all filters thoroughly under running water.
6. Remove the flat filter (A - 4) (B - 3) from the base of
the washing compartment and clean both faces
thoroughly.
7. Put the flat filter back in the base of the washing
compartment.
MA17
MA22
8. Place the coarse/fine filter in the microfilter and press
together.
9. Put the filter combination in place and lock by turning
the handle clockwise to the stop. During this process
ensure that the flat filter does not protrude above the
base of the washing compartment.

MA16
MA23
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.

Water supply connections
This dishwasher must be plumbed into a cold water supply.
Do not use, for the connection, old hoses which have been
used in former times.
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.
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.
