Resolving minor problems yourself.
Experience has shown that you can resolve most problems that arise during normal daily usage yourself, without having
to call out a service engineer. Not only does this save costs but it also means the appliance is available for use again
that much sooner. The following list of common occurences and their remedies should help you identify the causes of
most problems.
If the dishwasher won't
start, check...
■ Isthedishwasherpluggedinat

Detergent
The rinse aid
Detergent specifically intended for use with dishwashers
must be used. The dispenser must be refilled before the
start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided
in the "Programme Chart". The detergent dispenser is
located on the inside panel of the door.
This product makes dishes sparkle more as it improves
their drying. The rinse aid container is situated on the inside
of the door, you should refill it when light “D” indicates that
it is empty.
(If your dishwasher is fitted with a “low rinse aid” indicator
light, fill the container up when the indicator light flashes or
lights up).
Loading the detergent
To open lid "A", press button "B". The cleaning detergent
should be introduced into the three containers "1", “2”and
“3”. "(see table at the end of the page)
After pouring in the detergent, replace the lid, pressing down
until it clicks.
Loading the Rinse Aid
To open the dispenser, turn the "C" cap in the anti-clockwise
direction and then pour in the rinse aid, making sure not to
overfill. The amount of rinse aid used for each cycle can be
regulated by turning the dose adjuster ‘F’ which you will find
under lid ‘C’.
There are 6 different settings; the normal dosage is setting
5.
