Detergent and Rinse Aid ....
Detergent
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 " Wash Cycle Table." 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
appliance door; you should refill it when you see the container
is empty by means of indicator “D”.
(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 two containers "C"and "D"
up to the rim.
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 "F" dose adjustor, located beneath
the " C" cap, with a screwdriver. There are 6 different
settings; the normal dosage setting is 4.
Dishwasher detergent in tablets is now available on the
market, in which case you should place one tablet into
container " D" and replace the lid.
Notice: To facilitate closing the cover, remove any
excess detergent on the edges of the dispenser.

Important:
Proper dosage of the rinse aid improves drying.
If drops of water remain on the dishes or spotting occurs,
the dosage adjustor should be turned to a higher setting. If
the dishes have white streaks, turn the dosage adjustor to a
lower setting.
A
Warning
Three-in-one dishwasher tablets are now available on the market, and combine the detergent, salt and rinse aid all in one.
If the water in your area is hard or very hard, we still recommend you pour extra salt into the relevant dispenser to prevent the
formation of white streaks on your dishes or on the appliance interior.
Add rinse aid to the corresponding container only if you are dissatisfied with the results on your dishes.
In any case, please read the manufacturer's instructions provided on the packet.

Loading the Dishw asher
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove the
larger food particles to prevent the filter from becoming
clogged, which results in reduced performance.
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely
hard to remove, we recommend that they be allowed to
soak before they are washed. This will eliminate the need
for extra wash cycles.
Upper Rack
Low er Rack
Pull out the racks to facilitate loading the dishwasher.
How to Use the Low er Rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean
items on the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes
and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the
sides of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation
of the top spray arm.
- Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed top
down.
- Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow
out.
- Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket.
insert the cutlery into the basket: knives and utensils with
sharp blades or tips should be positioned with the sharp
parts at the bottom.
- If the rack has side baskets, the spoons should be loaded
individually into the appropriate slots (see fig. A and B)
Position all cutlery items so that they don't touch.
Fig. A
- Especially long utensils should be placed in the
horizontal position at the front of the upper rack.
How to Use the Upper Rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and
lighter dishware, such as glasses, coffee and tea cups
and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow
pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
Fig. B
- Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not
get moved by the spray of water.
How to adjust the Upper rack ...
The top rack can be adjusted using the two rack heights
(top and bottom). To adjust the rack, open up the tabs
that lock the guides and pull out the rack. Arrange the
rack with the back wheels in either the top or bottom
position and then insert it along the guides until the front
wheels are on as well. Close the tabs to lock the rack in
place (see Fig. F)

Starting the Appliance
Starting a w ash cycle....
There's been a pow er failure? Have you opened the
dishw asher door?
The wash cycle stops and then restarts when the electricity
comes back on or when you close the door.
After performing all the operations described in the previous
paragraphs, turn the water tap on completely, open the
appliance door and press ON-OFF button "A": indicator light
" B" comes on. Your appliance is now on and awaiting
instructions.
At the end of the w ash cycle...
The end of the wash cycle is indicated by a double beep and
the flashing of the wash cycle indicator light "C". Open the
dishwasher door, press the ON-OFF button as well, thus cutting
off the electricity supply to the appliance.
Setting and Starting a Wash Cycle
Select the wash cycle by pressing button "P". Each time this
button is pressed, one of the indicator lights " C" will come
on in sequence, select the wash cycle you deem most
suitable for the type of dishes to wash (take a look at page
7, where you will find the wash cycle table). Close the
appliance door and after a few seconds, you will hear a
short beep: the wash cycle has begun.
- Turn off the water tap.
CAUTION
Turn the display off by pressing button “A”, unplug
the appliance from the electricity socket to cut off the

Cancelling or modifying a cycle w hile underw ay...
Premise: A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it
has only been running for a short time.
Open the appliance door carefully to avoid any hot water
splashes, then keep button " P" pressed for approximately 5
seconds, until you hear 3 short beeps. Indicator light " C"
will come off and at this point, all the settings will have
been cancelled. You are now free to re-set the correct wash
cycle.
Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishes: they are
very hot! If you wait a little while, they dry better thanks to
the steam.
Empty the lower rack first.
Make sure the wash cycle has ended before removing the
dishes!
If you forget to load some of the dishes...
Interrupt the wash cycle by opening the appliance door with
the utmost care, as usual, then insert the dish you had
forgotten. When you shut the appliance door, the cycle will
start up from where you interrupted it. restart at the point
where it left off.

Energy Saving Tips
- It is important to try and run the dishwasher when it is fully
loaded in order to save on energy. In order to prevent odors
from forming and food from caking onto the dishes, you
can run the hold cycle.
- Use the right amount of detergent: if you use too much
detergent, the result will not be cleaner dishes, but, rather,
a greater negative impact on the environment.
- There is no utility in rinsing dishes, cookware and utensils
before placing them in the dishwasher.
- Choose the right wash cycle: the choice of cycle depends
on the type of dishware, cookware and utensils being
washed and how dirty they are.
How to Keep Your Dishw asher in Shape
After Every Wash
When You Go on Holiday
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance
and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors
are not trapped inside.
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a
wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove
the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and
leave the door of the appliance slightly ajar. This will help
the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within
the appliance.
Remove the Plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove
the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.
Moving the Appliance
No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical
position. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its
back.
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do
not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Rather, use
only a cloth and warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior,
use a cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar,
or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher
is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning
with a damp sponge will prevent this from occuring.

Cleaning and Special Maintenance
The filter assembly
If you want consistent good results from your dishwasher,
you need to clean the filter assembly.
Reassemble the filter parts (as shown in the figure) and
reinsert the whole assembly into the dishwasher. Position it
into its housing and press downwards.
The food particles are removed from the wash water, allowing
it to be recirculated during the cycle, filtered perfectly. For
this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food
particles trapped inside the cup “C” and the semi-circular
filter A after each wash; pull the cup handle upwards to
remove them. Just rinse them under running water.
The dishwasher is not to be used without filters. Improper
replacement of the filters may reduce the efficiency of the
wash and even damage your dishwasher.
Cleaning the Sprayer Arms
It may happen that food particles become encrusted on the
sprayer arms and block the holes. Check the sprayer arms
periodically and clean them when needed (see “Close-up
View [interior]”, letters F-I).
The entire filter assembly
should be cleaned thoroughly

Troubleshooting
one or two wash cycle indicator lights "C" flashing rapidly.
Take a note of which lights are flashing, turn the appliance off and
call for technical assistance.
It may occur that the dishwasher does not function or does
not function properly. Before calling for assistance, let us
see what can be done first: have you forgot to press one of
the buttons or to perform an essential operation?
The Dishw asher Does Not Start
Have you checked whether:
- the plug is pushed into the socket correctly;
- the power is on in the house;
- the door is closed properly;
- the ON-OFF switch is on " ON" ;
- the water supply is turned on.
The Dishw asher Does Not Load Water
Have you checked whether:
- the water is turned on and the hose is connected properly;
- the water supply to the house is on and has sufficient
pressure;
- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;
- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.
The Dishes Are Not Clean
Tap off alarm
If you have forgotten to turn the water tap on, your appliance will
remind you of this by sounding a few short beeps for a few minutes.
Turn the tap on and your appliance will start up again after a few
minutes. Were you to be absent when these beeps are sounded, the
appliance will be blocked automatically and indicator lights 2 and 3
(Normal and Soak) will flash rapidly. Turn the appliance off at the
ON-OFF button, turn on the water tap and wait approximately 20
seconds before turning the appliance back on; repeat the
programming operations and the selected wash cycle will start up
again.
Clogged filter alarm
If the appliance is blocked and indicator lights 1 (Intensive) and 3
(Soak) flash rapidly, this means the filter is clogged by large particles
of food residue. Turn the appliance off, clean the filter thoroughly
and reposition it in its seat as illustrated on this page. Then turn it
back on. Repeat the programming operations and the selected wash
cycle will start up again.
Water load solenoid valve malfunction alarm.
If indicator light 2 (normal wash) flashes rapidly, TURN the dishwasher
OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN after one minute. If the alarm persists,
first turn off the water tap to avoid any flooding and then cut off the
electricity supply and call for technical assistance.
Have you put the right amount of detergent into the
dispenser?
Is the wash cycle suitable for the dishes you have placed
inside the appliance?
If, despite all these checks, the dishwasher still does not
function and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest
authorised service centre and provide them with the
following information:
Are the filter and microfilter clean?
Can the sprayer arms turn freely?
The Dishw asher Does Not Drain
Have you checked whether:
- the nature of the problem;
- the drain hose is crimped or bent.
- the model type number (Mod. ...) and the serial number
(S/N ....), which are indicated on the plate located on the
side of the inner part of the door.
Lime Deposits or a White Film Form on the Dishes
Have you checked whether:
- the lid to the salt container is closed properly;
Never call on unauthorised technicians and refuse to
allow parts to be installed that are not original spare
parts.
- the rinse aid dosage is correct.

Installation
Electrical Connection
Positioning the Appliance
After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for
the current in the home correspond to those on the rating
plate (located on the stainless steel inner door of the
appliance) and that the electrical system is sized for the
maximum voltage on the rating plate, insert the plug into
an electrical socket which is earthed properly (the earthing
of the appliance is a safety requirement mandated by law).
If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be
connected is not appropriate for the plug, replace the plug,
rather than using adpators or the like as they could cause
overheating and burns.
Position the appliance in the desired location. The back
should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along
the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped
with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to
the right or the left to facilitate proper installation.
Levelling the Appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing
them in or out) to adjust the height of the dishwasher, making
it level. In any case, the appliance should not be inclined
more than 2°.
If the appliance is level, it will help ensure proper perfor-
mance.
Caution: the dishw asher plug must be accessible even
w hen the appliance is installed as a built-in unit so
that maintenance can be done safely.
Cold Water Connection
Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas)
connector.
Should the electricity supply cable be damaged, we
recommend that you only contact authorised Technical Service
Centres for the replacement.
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an
extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that
the water is clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is
not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet can get
blocked and damage the appliance.
Condensation-proof tape.
On some models, a transparent condensation-proof adhesive
tape has been provided.
It should be stuck onto the lower side of your wooden worktop
to protect it from the formation of condensation.
When not provided, this tape can be requested as a spare
part from authorised retailers.
Hot Water Connection
The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to
the house's hot water line (centralised system, heating
system), as long as it does not exceed a temperature of
60°C.
In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about
15 minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.
The connection must be made to the hot water line following
the same procedures as those for the connection to the cold
water line.
Drain Hose Connection
Fit the drain pipe into a drain line with a minimum diameter
of 4 cm or place it over the sink. Avoid restricting or bending
it. Use the special plastic elbow provided (see figure) to
position it in the best possible way. The part of the pipe
marked with the letter A should be between 40 and 100 cm
above the ground.
The pipe should not be immersed in water.
