Connecting the water outlet hose  
Anti-condensation strip*  
EN  
After installing the dishwasher, open the door and stick the  
adhesive transparent strip under the wooden shelf in order to  
protect it from any condensation which may form.  
Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drain duct  
with a minimum diameter of 4 cm. Alternatively, rest it over a  
sink or tub; the free end of the hose should not remain  
immersed in water.  
Advice regarding the first wash cycle  
After the appliance has been installed, immediately before  
running the first wash cycle, completely fill the salt dispenser  
with water and add only then approximately 1 kg of salt (see  
chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). The water may  
overflow: this is normal and is not a cause for concern. Select  
the water hardness value (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and  
refined salt). - After the salt has been poured into the  
machine, the LOW SALT indicator light* switches off.  
The special plastic elbow*  
A
makes it easier to find the best  
layout: fix the elbow to the wall  
securely in order to prevent the  
outlet hose from moving and  
spilling the dirty water.  
The part of the hose marked  
with the letter A should be  
between 40 and 100 cm above  
the ground (see figure).  
If the salt container is not filled, the water softener and the  
heating element may be damaged as a result.  
We advise against the use of hose extensions.

Loading the racks  
Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from  
the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and cups.  
After loading the appliance, check that the sprayer arms  
can rotate freely.  
Adjusting the height of the upper rack  
In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper  
rack may be moved to a higher or lower level. (in models which  
EN  
The height of the upper rack should ideally be adjusted  
WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.  
Lower rack  
The lower rack can hold pans, lids, plates, salad bowls,  
cutlery, etc. as seen in the Loading examples.  
Plates and large covers should be placed at the sides of the  
rack, ensuring that they do not block the rotation of the upper  
sprayer arm.  
Never lift or lower the rack on one side only.  
Open the left and right guide rail stops  
and pull out the rack; position it higher or  
lower as required, slide it along the guide  
rails until the front wheels are in place  
and close the stops (see figure).  
Some dishwasher models are fitted with tip-up sections*,  
which can be used in a vertical position when arranging  
plates or in a horizontal position when arranging pans and  
salad bowls.  
If the rack is fitted with Dual Space  
handles*(see figure), pull out the upper  
rack until it reaches its stop point, grip the  
handles at the sides of the rack and move  
it upwards or downwards, then slowly let it  
fall back into place.  
Cutlery basket  
Loading examples for the upper rack  
The type of cutlery basket may vary according to the  
dishwasher model: it may be modular, non-modular or a sliding  
version. The non-modular basket must only be positioned at  
the front of the lower rack.  
The modular basket may be separated into two parts, a solution  
which is recommended when performing a half load wash (only  
in models offering this option), is available in a sliding version  
(positioned at any point on the lower rack by sliding it between  
the fixed or tip-up inserts.  
Loading examples for the lower rack  
- Both versions are fitted with a collapsible sliding system which  
means the cutlery can be arranged in the best possible way.  
Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be  
placed in the cutlery basket with the points facing  
downwards, or they must be positioned horizontally in the tip-  
up compartments on the upper rack.  
Items which should not be washed in the  
dishwasher  
• Wooden items, objects with wooden or horn handles or  
glued-on parts.  
Cutlery basket positioning examples  
• Items made from aluminium, copper, brass, pewter or tin.  
• Items made from plastic material which is not heat-resistant.  
• Antique or hand-painted porcelain.  
• Antique silver. Silver which is not antique may, however, be  
washed in the dishwasher using a delicate wash cycle,  
provided that it does not come into contact with other metals.  
We recommend the use of crockery which is dishwasher  
safe.  
Upper rack  
Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery:  
glasses, tea and coffee cups, saucers, small salad bowls,  
saucepans and small saucepans which are not too soiled,  
using the Loading examples as a guide.  
• Mugs and cups, long sharp knives and serving utensils:  
place these on the tip-up compartments**.

Notes:  
Optimum performance levels when using the "Smart Sixty and Speed wash" cycles can be achieved by observing the maximum  
amounts of crockery specified.  
To make it easier to measure out the detergent, it is worth remembering that:  
1 tablespoon = 15 gr. of powder = approximately 15 ml of liquid - 1 teaspoon = 5 gr. of powder = approximately 5 ml of liquid  
*The Eco wash cycle adheres to the regulation EN-50242. Although it has a longer duration than other wash cycles it uses less  
energy and is les harmful to the environment.

3. Screw the lid back on.  
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.  
Adjusting the amount of rinse aid  
If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results,  
you may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a  
screwdriver to turn the dosage adjuster (F) to one of the 6  
pre-set positions (the default position is set to 4):  
• If there are streaks on the crockery, set the adjustment  
device to a lower number (1-3).

illuminated;  
1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew  
the container cap (anticlockwise).

tank right up to its edge.  
3. Position the funnel*(see figure) and  
fill the salt container right up to its edge  
(this should hold approximately 1 kg); it is not unusual for a  
little water to leak out.  
Setting the water hardness  
Every dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which, by  
using refined salt designed especially for this type of  
appliance, supplies water without limescale which is then used  
to wash the crockery.  
4. Remove the funnel* and wipe any salt residue away from the  
opening; rinse the cap under running water and then screw it  
on, the head facing downwards so as to let the water flow out  
of the four cracks which are arranged in a star shape on the  
lower part of the cap. (Salt cap with green float*)  
It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you  
add salt to the container.  
This dishwasher offers a setting which helps to reduce  
pollution and optimises washing performance in accordance  
with the water hardness level in your area. This information can  
be obtained from the organisation which supplies your  
household with water.  
Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent  
can get into the container during the wash cycle (this could  
damage the water softener beyond repair).  
- Switch the machine off using the ON/OFF button and open  
the door.  
When necessary, measure out the salt before a wash  
cycle so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the  
salt dispenser is removed.  
- Set the SELECT WASH CYCLE knob first to wash cycle 5,  
then to wash cycle 1, then to wash cycle 5 again.

avoid moisture from forming and being trapped inside  
the machine.  
• After several washes, check the filter assembly and if  
necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a  
non-metallic brush and following the instructions below:  
1. Turn the cylindrical filter C in an anti-clockwise direction  
and pull it out (fig. 1).  
• Clean the seals around the door and detergent  
dispensers regularly using a damp sponge. This will  
avoid food becoming trapped in the seals, which is  
the main cause behind the formation of unpleasant  
odours.  
2. Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on the  
side flaps (fig. 2).  
3. Slide out the stainless steel plate filter A (fig. 3).  
4. Inspect the trap and remove any food residue. NEVER  
REMOVE the wash cycle pump (black detail) (fig. 4).  
Cleaning the sprayer arms  
Food residue may become encrusted onto the sprayer  
arms and block the holes used to spray the water. It is  
therefore recommended that the arms are checked from  
time to time and cleaned with a small non-metallic  
brush.

The lower sprayer arm can be  
removed by pressing on the  
side tabs and pulling it  
upwards.  
After cleaning the filters, replace the filter assembly and fix it in  
position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient  
operation of the dishwasher.  
Leaving the machine unused for extended  
periods  
• Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply and  
Cleaning the water inlet filter*  
shut off the water tap.  
If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an  
extended period of time, let the water run to make sure it  
is clear and free of impurities before performing the  
necessary connections. If this precaution is not taken,  
the water inlet could become blocked and damage the  
dishwasher.  
• Leave the door of the appliance ajar.  
• When you return, run a wash cycle when the dishwasher is  
empty.  
* Only available in selected models.

Precautions and advice  
This appliance was designed and manufactured in  
Saving energy and respecting the  
environment  
EN  
compliance with current international safety standards. The  
following information has been provided for safety reasons  
and should therefore be read carefully.  
Saving water and energy  
• Only begin a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full. While  
waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent unpleasant  
odours using the Soak cycle (see Wash cycles).  
• Select a wash cycle which is suited to the type of crockery  
and to the soil level of the crockery using the Table of wash  
cycles:  
General safety  
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons  
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or  
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,  
unless they have been given supervision or instruction  
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible  
for their safety.  
- For dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco wash  
cycle, which guarantees low energy and water  
consumption levels.  
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not  
play with the appliance.  
- If the load is smaller than usual activate the Half load  
option*(see Start-up and use).  
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside the  
home and is not intended for commercial or industrial use.  
• The appliance must be used by adults only, to wash  
domestic crockery in accordance with the instructions in  
this manual.  
• If your electricity supply contract gives details of electricity  
saving time bands, run wash cycles during the periods  
when a lower tariff is applied. The Delayed start*button  
(see Start-up and use) helps you organise the wash cycles  
accordingly.  
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in  
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the  
machine exposed to rain and storms.  
Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents  
containing enzymes  
• Do not touch the appliance when barefoot.  
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug from  
the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.  
• We strongly recommend that you use detergents that do  
not contain phosphates or chlorine, as these products are  
harmful to the environment.  
• The water supply tap must be shut off and the plug should  
be removed from the electrical socket before cleaning the  
appliance or carrying out any maintenance work.  
• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any  
circumstances touch the internal parts in an attempt to  
perform the repair work yourself.  
• Enzymes provide a particularly effective action at  
temperatures around 50°C, and as a result detergents  
containing enzymes can be used in conjunction with low-  
temperature wash cycles in order to achieve the same  
results as a normal 65°C wash cycle.  
• Never touch the heating element.  
• To avoid wasting detergent, use the product in appropriate  
quantities based on the manufacturer’s recommendations,  
the hardness of the water and the soil level and quantity of  
crockery to be washed. Even if they are biodegradable,  
detergents contain substances which may alter the balance  
of nature.  
• Do not lean or sit on the open door of the appliance: this  
may cause the appliance to overturn.  
• The door should not be left open as it may create a  
dangerous obstacle.  
• Keep detergent and rinse aid out of reach of children.  
• The packaging material should not be used as a toy.  
Disposal  
• Disposal of packaging materials: observe local legislation  
so that the packaging may be reused.  
• The European Directive 2002/96/EC relating to Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) states that  
household appliances should not be disposed of using the  
normal solid urban waste cycle. Exhausted appliances  
should be collected separately in order to optimise the cost  
of re-using and recycling the materials inside the machine,  
while preventing potential damage to the atmosphere and  
to public health. The crossed-out dustbin is marked on all  
products to remind the owner of their obligations regarding  
separated waste collection.  
For further information relating to the correct disposal of  
household appliances, owners may contact the relevant  
public authority or the local appliance dealer.  
* Only available in selected models.
