Audible signals  
Audible signals have been introduced to help indicate which  
operations the dishwasher is performing.  
Short "instruction accepted" signal  
When any of the push buttons are pressed (except the  
On/Off push button), a short audible signal informs you that  
the machine has accepted the instruction given.  
Long "programme run" signal  
A continuous audible signal informs you that the washing  
programme is starting.  
Intermittent "end of programme" signal  
An intermittent audible signal informs you that the wash  
programme has ended.  
"Alarm" intermittent signal  
The machine is fitted with a number of alarm systems to  
help you determine the cause of any problems (see  
"Something not working").  
An intermittent audible signal informs you that an  
alarm is activated.  
To deactivate these audible signals, press simultaneously  
and keep pressed both HALF LOAD and DELAY push  
buttons for about 5 seconds, until you hear 3 short intermittent  
audible signals, this means that the audible signals have been  
deactivated.  
SO433  
To reactivate these audible signals, press simultaneously  
and keep pressed both HALF LOAD and DELAY push  
buttons for about 5 seconds, until you hear 3 short intermittent  
audible signals, this means that the audible signals have been  
reactivated.  
Both operations (to deactivate or reactivate the audible  
signals) must be carried out before starting a washing  
programme; the setting will remain memorised after  
switching off the dishwasher.

Before use  
Before using your dishwasher for the  
first time:  
2. Press the DELAY push button within 5 seconds until the  
required level appears in the display. The level increases  
by 1 each time the push button is pressed.  
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply  
3. 5 seconds after the DELAY push button has last been  
pressed, the dishwasher memorises the level selected and  
returns to the programme setting mode.  
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  
Filling with salt  
Only use salt specifically designed for use in  
dishwashers.  
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.  
6. Run a Rinse and Hold programme.  
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in  
a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water  
softener.  
Setting the water softener  
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete  
washing programmes. 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, which  
may cause corrosion.  
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  
degrees, French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).  
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.  
To fill:  
1. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container.  
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary  
only before filling with salt for the first time).  
The dishwasher is factory set at level 4.  
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be  
adjusted.  
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the  
container is full.  
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling  
with salt, this is quite normal.

4. Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt  
on the screw thread or on the gasket.  
5. Screw on the cap tightly.  
The salt container will require topping up periodically.  
If your water is level 0 it is already soft and therefore  
there is no need to use salt.  
With the setting of the water softener at level 0 the salt  
indicator light on the control panel will always remain off.  
Use salt from level 1 upwards.  
You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the  
control panel which comes on when the salt has finished.  
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 adjustment of the water softener is possible only with  
the machine in setting mode.  
The operation of the machine is not affected.  
To select a different level proceed as follows:  
1. Press SELECTION and DELAY programme push buttons  
simultaneously for about 5 seconds. In the display appears  
an L followed by a number (e.g. L 4) which corresponds to  
the current level.

Rinse aid  
Use of detergent  
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.  
Only use detergents specifically designed for use in  
dishwashers.  
We recommend the use of Finish detergents which are  
available in the following options:  
Finish Double Action Tablets. Each tablet has the exact  
amount of detergent required, simply place in the dispenser.  
Filling with rinse aid  
1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise.  
Finish Powder recommended for every day use.  
Finish Liquid Gel ideal for every day use. As the gel is extra  
gentle it is recommended for fine bone china.  
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full.  
The indicator (B) will be completely dark.  
If using powder detergents proceed as follows:  
1. Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D).  
2. Add the detergent according to the instructions given in the  
Washing programmes chart.

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 in the SID detergent dispenser, located in the  
centre of the upper basket.  
Follow the recommended quantity of detergent given in the  
Washing programmes chart.  
3. Top up the rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light on  
the control panel illuminates.  
Min = 15 g  
Max = 30 g  
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.  
D
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.  
M A X  
M I N  
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).  
DE17  
DE14  
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on  
the dishes after washing.  
If using detergent in tablets proceed as  
follows:  
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.  
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 you can therefore achieve  
the same cleaning results that would otherwise be achievable  
only with 65°C programmes and conventional detergents.

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.  
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.  
Do not load very small items which can fall through the  
baskets.  
Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel cutlery.  
Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the others.  
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.  
For best results we recommend to use the cutlery grids  
provided (if the size and the dimensions of the cutlery allow it).  
The cutlery basket is in two parts which can be separated to  
give greater loading flexibility. To separate the two parts, slide  
them horizontally in opposite directions and pull them apart. To  
reassemble, reverse the procedure.  
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.  
UI62  
UI63  
UI48  
UI21  
The upper basket  
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates,  
saucers, dinner plates of up to 25 cm in diameter), salad  
bowls, cups and glasses.  
The two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can be easily  
lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls.  
To lower the prongs:  
Arrange items so that water can reach all surfaces.  
- Slightly pull them upward and let them drop down  
(see picture).  
- To bring them back to the  
standing position, just pull  
them up again.  
Glasses with long stems can be placed upside down in the  
cup racks.  
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper  
basket and arranged so they do not move.  
UI86  
US72  
The cutlery basket  
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a  
potential hazard.  
These items should only be placed in the removable knife  
basket.  
Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as  
knives.  
In case that plates are loaded in the upper basket:  
load them starting from the rear positions of the basket, tilting  
them forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door.  
Removable knife basket  
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives  
must be placed horizontally in the removable knife basket,  
which is positioned at the rear of the upper basket.  
US71  
Attention!  
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can  
rotate freely.  
UI53  
Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with  
the handles facing downwards.

Adjusting the height of the upper  
basket  
If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 32 cm in  
diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after moving  
the upper basket to the higher position.  
Attention!  
Never lift or lower the basket on one side only.  
To move to the higher position proceed as follows:  
1. Pull out the basket until it stops.  
2. Carefully lift both sides upwards until the mechanism is  
engaged and the basket is stable.  
RC02  
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 cup racks.  
To lower the basket to the original position proceed as  
follows:  
1. Pull out the basket until it stops.  
2. Carefully lift both sides upwards and the allow the  
mechanism to drop back slowly, keeping hold of it.  
Attention!  
After loading your machine always close the door, as an  
open door can be a hazard.

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):  
Do not prewash dishes under running water.  
- Cutlery with wooden or horn handles or glued parts  
- bronze cutlery  
Select the DAILY 30I programme when dishes are not very  
soiled, following the instructions given in the "Washing  
programmes" chart.  
- saucepans with wooden handles  
- aluminium ware  
Select the HALF LOAD option if only a few dishes need  
washing. Remember to load the dishes in both baskets.  
- crystal ware  
- leaded glass  
- plastic items  
- antique or fine decorated china  
For best washing results  
Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very  
heavily soiled pots and pans.  
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.  
Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. upside-down.  
Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the water  
drains off easily.  
Certain types of glass can also become opaque  
after being washed several times in a dishwasher.  
Avoid contact between the dishes as far as possible.  
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.

9. To cancel a programme in progress  
Press the "START" push button for 5 seconds to cancel  
the setting or the running of the current programme. An  
intermittent audible signal will be heard and all the  
indicator lights will turn off while in the digital display 3  
horizontal lines will appear.  
After 5 seconds the dishwasher will return to setting  
mode.  
It is now possible to select a new washing programme.  
10. At the end of the washing  
programme  
The dishwasher will automatically stop and an  
intermittent audible signal will be heard when the  
programme has ended.  
3 flashing horizontal lines will appear in the digital  
display and all the indicator lights (drying phase  
included) will turn off.  
You cannot select a new programme if the previous  
programme has not been completed or cancelled.  
Press the On/Off push button and open the door and  
wait a few minutes before removing the dishes; in this  
way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved.  
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.  
Important!  
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.  
Care must be taken if the door is opened during the hot  
phase or immediately after a programme has finished, as  
steam may escape.  
When the washing programme has finished, it is  
recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the  
water tap turned off.

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.  
Check that the SID is not clogged with detergent residue. If  
necessary rinse it under running water after having removed it  
from the basket by twisting it anticlockwise and pulling it  
upwards.  
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.  
Fasten it back onto the support by turning it clockwise.  
Cleaning the central filter  
(After each wash)  
Scraps of food may accumulate in the drain filter (A) and  
should be removed by rinsing the filter under running water.  
To remove the drain filter  
- simply pull it out by the handle.  
MA12  
Once cleaned, refit the filter by pushing it back to its original  
position until it engages.  
Never use your dishwasher without the SID dispenser.  
Since SID also ensures correct distribution of the water to  
the upper spray arm, running the dishwasher without it  
will impair the washing results.  
External cleaning  
A
Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel  
with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral  
detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or  
solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).  
MA04  
MA19  
Cleaning the large filter  
(Every week)  
Prolonged periods of non-operation  
If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are  
advised to:  
1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.  
2. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.  
3. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any  
unpleasant smells.  
4. Leave the inside of the machine clean.  
If necessary clean the large filter (B) on both sides under  
running water, using a brush.  
To remove the large filter  
1. Remove the spray arm by pulling it upwards on one side.  
2. Turn the column (C) anticlockwise by 90° and then slide out  
the filter.  
3. Once cleaned refit it following the above instructions in  
reverse order.  
4. Ensure the filter is in its original position, the handle of the  
drain filter should be pointing towards the front of the  
appliance.  
Frost precautions  
Avoid placing the machine in a location where the temperature  
is below 0°C. If this is unavoidable, empty the machine, close  
the appliance door, disconnect the water inlet pipe and empty  
it.  
90°

Moving the machine  
If you have to move the machine (moving house etc....):  
1. Unplug it.  
2. Turn the water tap off.  
C
MA20  
MA05  
3. Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.  
4. Pull the machine out together with the hoses.  
Avoid over tilting the machine during transportation.  
MA21  
MA18  
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.

Installation instructions  
Any electrical work required to install this appliance  
should be carried out by a qualified electrician or  
competent person.  
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.  
Likewise the internal diameter of the couplings used for  
connections to the waste outlet must be no smaller than the  
diameter of the hose provided.  
Any plumbing work required to install this appliance  
should be carried out by a qualified plumber or competent  
person.  
Remove all packaging before positioning the machine.  
If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a  
drain.  
Water supply connections  
This dishwasher must be plumbed into a cold water supply.  
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the  
technical specifications.  
+ 2 m max  
CS14  
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 the 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 filter.  
Electrical connection  
This appliance must be earthed.  
The manufacturer declines any responsibility should this  
safety measure not be observed.  
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not suitable for the  
socket, it must be cut off and the appropriate plug fitted.  
Important  
The wires on the mains lead are coloured in accordance with  
the following code:  
Green and Yellow - Earth  
Blue  
- Neutral  
- Live  
Brown  
Water outlet hose connection  
The end of the drain hose can be connected in the following  
ways:  
If you fit your own plug, the colours of the wires in the mains  
lead of your appliance may not correspond with the markings  
identifying the terminals in your plug.  
1. To the sink outlet spigot, securing it if necessary with a clip.  
2. To a stand pipe provided with vent-hole, minimum internal  
diameter 4 cm.  
E

L
N
CS13  
CE04  
The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm  
(minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the  
dishwasher.  
Proceed as follows:  
1. Connect the Green and Yellow (earth) wire to the terminal  
The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the  
dishwasher  
in the plug which is marked with the letter "E" or the earth  
symbol  
or coloured green and yellow.  
Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent  
or slow down the discharge of water.  
2. Connect the Blue (neutral) wire to the terminal in the plug  
The sink plug must not be in place when the machine is  
draining as this could cause the water to siphon back into the  
machine.  
which is marked with the letter "N" or coloured black.  
3. Connect the Brown (live) wire to the terminal in the plug  
which is marked with the letter "L" or coloured red.  
Attention!  
The plug moulded onto the lead incorporates a 13amp BSI362  
fuse. Only ASTA or BSI fuses should be used.  
Our appliances are supplied with a security device to  
protect against the return of dirty water back into the  
machine.  
If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve"  
incorporated this can prevent the correct draining of your  
dishwasher.  
The plug must not be used if the fuse cover/carrier is lost. The  
cover/carrier is indicated by the coloured insert at the base of  
the plug.  
A replacement cover/carrier must be obtained from your local  
Service Force Centre.  
We advise you therefore to remove it.
