WARNINGS  
It is most important that this instruction book  
should be retained with the appliance for future  
reference. Should the appliance be sold or trans-  
ferred to another owner, or should you move  
house and leave the appliance, always ensure that  
the book is left with the appliance in order that the  
new owner can get to know the functioning of the  
appliance and the relevant warnings.  
Under no circumstances should you attempt to  
repair the machine yourself. Repairs carried out by  
inexperienced persons may cause injury or serious  
malfunctioning.  
This appliance should be serviced only by an  
authorised Service Centre.  
Before disposing of the appliance, disconnect the  
water hose, cut the electrical cable and ensure that  
the door cannot close.  
These warnings are provided in the interest of  
safety. You MUST read them carefully before  
installing or using the appliance.  
For proper disposal of the appliance, contact your  
local waste collection service.  
If the appliance is supplied with obvious damage,  
consult the supplier before installing it.  
Any plumbing work required to install this appliance  
should be carried out by a qualified plumber or  
competent person.  
Any electrical work required to install this appliance  
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or  
competent person.  
This appliance is designed to be operated by adults.  
Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance  
does not stand on the electrical supply cable or on  
the water inlet and drain hoses.  
These dishwashers are designed to be used for  
washing normal household utensils. Items that are  
contaminated by petrol, paint, steel or iron debris,  
corrosive, acidic or alkaline chemicals are not to be  
washed in a dishwasher.  
Under no circumstances should you open the door  
whilst, the appliance is in operation. Always turn off  
the appliance before opening the door.  
However, the dishwasher features a special safety  
device which cuts off the water inlet, should the door  
be accidentally opened, thus avoiding water leaks.  
Never touch the heating element during or  
immediately after the end of the washing cycle.  
When finishing loading or unloading close the door,  
as an open door can be a hazard.  
It is dangerous to lean or to sit on the dishwasher

INSTALLATION  
Remove all packaging before positioning the  
machine.  
Installing and Securing the Machine Under  
a Kitchen Unit (Sink-Worktop Unit)  
Positioning  
By removing the machine's worktop, you can install it  
under a close fitting sink unit or a pre-existing top, if  
the dimensions of the recess correspond to those  
shown in the picture.  
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap  
and a drain.  
The sides and the back of the dishwasher can rest  
against the adjacent furniture or the wall.  
Then proceed as follows:  
Remove the machine worktop by unscrewing the two  
front retaining screws, pull from the front and slide out  
the rear slots, lifting the worktop.  
The dishwasher features fill and drain hoses which  
can be turned either to the left or the right to suit the  
installation.  
Insert the machine after adjusting the height and level-  
ling with the adjustable feet. When inserting the ma-  
chine, ensure that the water inlet and drain hoses are  
not kinked or squashed.  
Levelling  
Good levelling is essential for correct closure and  
sealing of the door.  
If the door does not close correctly, loosen or tighten  
the adjustable support feet, until the machine is  
perfectly level.  
IN04  
Caution  
Once the machine has been installed, ensure that it  
can be accessed easily for servicing.  
IN01  
Adjusting the Worktop  
You can move the worktop forward or backward by 25  
mm 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.

The water supply hose is fitted with a safety device,  
which prevents water from entering the machine  
should the inner hose split, due to wear.  
Water Outlet Connection  
The end of the drain hose can be connected as  
follows:  
The problem is signalled  
by a red indicator which  
appears in window (B).  
to the sink outlet siphon, securing it if necessary with  
a clip;  
If this happens, close the  
water tap and have the  
hose replaced.  
to a wall outlet provided with vent-hole, minimum  
internal diameter 4 cm;  
A
hooked over the edge of the sink using the special  
curved plastic guide provided.  
B
CA01  
The waste connection must be at a height of between  
30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the  
floor.  
Warning: the retaining ring (A) must be properly fitted  
so as to avoid water leaks.  
It makes no difference which way the drain hose  
faces, either to the right or left of the dishwasher.  
Note: the end of the  
hose connected to the  
machine can be positioned  
as required, by simply  
slackening the retaining  
ring.  
Avoid bending or kinking the hose as this could  
prevent or slow down the discharge of water.  
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.  
Re-tighten the ring securely  
to avoid water leaks.  
CA06  
Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used  
for connection to the waste outlet must be no smaller  
than the diameter of the drain hose.  
Avoid bends or kinks in the hose, which could prevent  
or slow down the flow of water.  
If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes  
which have not been used for a long time, you are  
advised to run the water for a few minutes before  
connecting the inlet hose. This will prevent deposits of  
sand or rust clogging the inlet hose filter.  
Electrical connection  
+ 2 m max  
Before plugging the appliance into the wall socket,  
make sure that:  
CS01  
1. the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage given  
in the technical specifications;  
Water Supply Connections  
This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max.  
60°C) or cold water.  
2. the meter, fuses, mains power supply and wall  
socket can all take the maximum load required.  
Make sure that the socket and plug are compatible  
without having to use any type of adapter. If neces-  
sary, have the domestic wiring system socket  
replaced.  
Nevertheless we advise you a cold water supply.  
A hot water supply is not always efficient with very  
soiled crockery as it shortens the washing pro-  
grammes a lot.  
Safety standards require the appliance to be  
earthed.  
The Manufacturer accepts no liability for failure to  
observe the above safety precautions.  
Feeding the appliance with a hot water supply (max.  
60°C) will allow you to obtain considerably shorter  
programmes.  
For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted  
to the machine's supply hose is designed to screw  
onto either a 3/4 inch gas thread spout, or to a  
purpose-made quick-coupling tap such as the Press-  
Block.  
The water pressure must be within the limits given in  
the technical specifications, as it will not function  
correctly if pressure is outside these specifications.

salts depending on the area in which you live: these  
are deposited on the dishes leaving white marks.

The higher the content of these salts, the harder your  
water will be. The «hardness» level is measured on 2  
equivalent scales: German degrees or French  
degrees. Contact your local Water Authority to find the  
exact water hardness level for your area.  
AA04  
The dishwasher is equipped with a softener which  
uses special dishwasher salt to provide lime-free  
(softened) water. The softener can treat water hard-  
ness up to 90 French degrees via 5 adjustment levels.  
With a water hardness of level 5 both adjustments  
must be made.  
Important  
Salt MUST be used regularly from level 2 upward.  
Find on the table below the level corresponding to the  
hardness of your water and the required adjustments:  
Filling with Salt

slide out the lower basket and unscrew the cap of the  
salt container; turn the two-position selector anticlock-  
wise from position - to position + with the aid of a  
knife or a screwdriver.  
The salt container has always some water inside  
which will normally overflow when refilling with salt.  
Important: the salt indicator light on the control panel  
can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after salt has  
been replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains  
switched on. If you are using salts that take longer to  
dissolve, then the light remains illuminated for a long  
period of time. The functioning of the dishwasher is  
not affected.  
Caution  
AA01  
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the com-  
plete washing programmes (not Rinse and Hold pro-  
gramme). This will prevent any grains of salt or salty  
water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the  
bottom of the machine for any period of time. This  
could cause corrosion.

To help you to correctly  
dose the right amount of  
detergent, inside the con-  
tainer there are two refe-  
rence marks:  
Rinse Aid  
D
The use of this liquid ensures thorough rinsing, spot  
and streak free drying, making the water run quickly  
off the dishes for sparkling results. It is automatically  
added during the hot rinse. The dispenser, which is  
positioned inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse  
aid, which is sufficient for 16-40 dishwashing pro-  
grammes, depending upon the dosage setting.  
M A X  
M I N  
- MIN = 15 ml  
- MAX = 30 ml  
DE07  
All the programmes with  
prewash required a small  
extra amount of detergent  
of approximately 5 g (10 g  
for the Intensive pro-  
gramme) to be poured  
over the dispenser’s lid as  
shown in the picture.  
Filling with Rinse Aid  
Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.  
Add rinse aid until the container is completely full (ap-  
prox. 110 ml). The indicator (B) will be completely  
dark.  
Top up with rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes  
clear (approx. 70 - 80 ml).  
DE02  
Remember to CLOSE the lid after every refill.  
The amount of detergent to be used varies depending  
on how soiled the dishes are and the type of dishes  
being washed. We recommend the amounts shown in  
the programme chart .  
Cautlon  
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an  
absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the  
next wash.  
After filling the dispenser with detergent, close  
the lid.  
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 dose, position 6  
maximum dose). (Start from position 3). Gradually  
in crease 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.  
At the end of any washing programme the lid is always  
open, ready for the next wash.  
Since not all detergents are the same, you should  
also consult the instructions on the packet.  
Remember that insufficient quantities of detergent will  
produce poor washing results whereas an excessive  
amount of detergent does not improve washing  
results and is also wasteful.

Phosphate free detergents with enzymes  
In these low-alkaline compact powders the environ-  
ment unfriendly components have been replaced by  
natural enzymes and other more biodegradable sub-  
stances. The enzymes deploy their full dirt dissolving  
power at a temperature as low as 50°C.  
BR04

Caution: Do not put liquid detergent into the rinse aid  
compartment  
Use of Detergent  
By choosing the Bio-programme you can therefore  
achieve the same cleaning results that would other-  
wise be achievable only with 65°C programmes and  
conventional detergents.  
These new compact powders are generally  
phosphate-free. As phosphates have water softening  
properties, we suggest you add salt to the salt  
container even if the hardness of your water is as low  
as 4 °dh (7 °TH).  
Before starting any of the dishwashing programmes,  
except for the Rinse and Hold programme, load the  
detergent in the dispenser.  
Use only tablets, powder or liquid detergents specifi-  
cally designed for domestic dishwashers.  
Unsuitable detergents (such as those for washing by  
hand) do not contain the right ingredients for machine  
washing and hamper correct functioning of the  
machine.  
This will avoid lime deposits on crockery and the inner  
tub.  
To open the dispenser lid, pull the catch (D).

The two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can  
be easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and  
bowls.  
Loading your Machine  
Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any  
scraps of food from the plates (small bones,  
toothpicks, fish bones, scraps of meat and vegetables,  
fruit skins etc.) to avoid clogging the filters and  
consequently reducing performance.  
To lower the prongs:  
slightly pull them upward  
and let them drop down  
(see picture); to bring them  
back to the standing posi-  
tion, just pull them up  
again.  
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the  
dishes.  
Use of the Lower Basket  
UI18  
The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids,  
plates (up to 27 cm in diameter), 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.  
Use of the Upper Basket  
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates,  
saucers, dinner plates up to 24 cm in diameter), salad  
bowls, cups and glasses; these should be  
arranged as shown in the pictures. Glasses with long  
stems can be placed upside-down in the raised cup-  
racks.

Adjusting the Height of the Upper Basket  
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  
as follows:  
Move the front runner stops  
(A) of the upper basket out-  
A
ward and slide the basket  
out.  
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.  
HELPFUL HINTS  
For Best Washing Results:  
Items not Suitable for Dishwashers  
Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak  
very heavily soiled pots and pans.  
The following should not be washed in the  
dishwasher:  
Always arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc.  
upside-down.  
Cutlery or dishes with wooden or horn handles or  
glued parts.  
Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the  
water drains off easily.  
Handmade items, wooden objects, antiques or hand-  
painted china.  
Long items of cutlery such as ladles, carving knives  
etc. should be positioned horizontally in the upper  
basket.  
Avoid contact between the dishes as far as possible;  
correct arrangement of the items will give better  
washing results.  
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. You  
are advised to place them in the upper basket and to  
select a delicate programme.  
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the  
upper basket and arranged so that they do not move  
during washing.  
You will improve drying results by leaving the  
dishwasher door ajar for at least 15-30 minutes as  
soon as the programme finishes.  
Certain types of glass can also become opaque after  
being washed several times in a dishwasher.  
Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel  
cutlery. Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the  
others.  
Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other  
items.  
Aluminium tends to go black; copper, pewter and  
brass tend to stain.  
To Save Energy  
Do not prewash dishes under running water.  
Caution: You are advised not to load very small  
items which can fall through the baskets.  
Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal  
and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing.  
Note: When buying new dishes, ensure that they are  
dishwasher-proof.  
If necessary run the Rinse and Hold programme (see  
Programme Chart on the following pages), so that any  
food scraps do not become caked on the dishes while  
you are waiting to run the complete wash programme.  
Select an ECONOMIC programme when the baskets  
are not very full and/or when the dishes are not very  
soiled, following the instructions given in the  
Programme Chart (ECONOMY, BIO, QUICK  
programmes).

Avoid placing the machine in a location where the  
temperature is below 0°C.  
MA03  
Caution: the dishwasher must not be used  
without filters.  
If this is unavoidable, empty the machine, close the  
water inlet tap, disconnect the water inlet pipe and  
empty it.  
Incorrect repositioning of the filters will produce  
poor washing results.  
Moving the Machine  
Cleaning of the filters is vital to ensure correct  
operation of the machine.  
If you have to move the machine (you are moving  
house etc...):  
Internal and External Cleaning  
unplug it;  
turn off the water tap;  
You must ensure that the seals around the door, the  
detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned  
regularly with a damp cloth.  
remove the water inlet and discharge hoses;  
pull the machine out together with the hoses.  
We recommend you carryout a maintenance wash  
every 3 months, by running a 65° C wash programme  
without dishes using detergent.  
Caution: avoid over tilting the machine during  
transport.
