softened, ie. decalcified, so that it  
can be used in the dishwasher.  
G The water Softener should be  
properly adjusted to optimise salt  
consumption and for best washing  
results.  
G In order to ensure that the correct  
amount of salt is being used to  
regenerate the water softener, the  
water hardness adjuster needs to be  
set accordingly.To set this correctly  
the hardness of your water needs to  
be ascertained. Find on the table the  
level corresponding to the hardness  
of your water and the required  
adjustments or contact your local  
Water company to find the exact  
water hardness level for your area.  
Press the Economy 50˚ button. Each  
depression of the button increases the  
set value by one (0-3). If the Normal 65˚  
button, Economy 50˚ button and the  
Quick Wash 35˚ button illuminate the  
maximum hardness value has been  
reached. See the table below.  
After reaching 3, the display starts at 0  
again (none of the 3 buttons will be  
illuminated).  
G Switch off the Mains Switch 1 .The set  
value is stored in the appliance.  
Approx. 4 litres of water are required for  
regenerating the water softening  
system. The overall water consumption  
per load can therefore be increased by  
between 0 and a maximum of 4 litres  
according to the water hardness setting.  
G Press and hold the Economy 50˚  
button and set the mains switch 1  
to ON, the Salt Indicator light 4 will flash.

panel will light up initially but will  
extinguish when the salt solution has  
become sufficiently concentrated.  
NOTE:  
Models DWF35 and DWF34 only:  
When the control is set to 0, it is  
not necessary to add any salt, as  
none will be consumed while the  
dishwasher is operating. The LOW  
SALT indicator is switched off.  
If the control is set between 1and  
7, then salt must be added.  
Models DWF33 and DWF30 only:  
If the control is set to 0 , it is not  
necessary to add any salt, as none  
is consumed while the dishwasher  
is operating. If the switch is set  
between 1 and 3 , then salt must  
be added.  
Note:  
Only use recommended Dishwasher salt or  
granular salt. DO NOT use everyday table  
salt, cooking salt or road salt as they  
contain insoluble substances which could  
harm the Dishwasher.  
WARNING:  
How the salt works: While washing is  
taking place, salt is automatically rinsed out  
of the salt container into the water softener  
where it dissolves the lime in the water.The  
dissolved lime is pumped out of the dish-  
washer.The water softener system is then  
ready for the next load.This process of  
regeneration can only function when the  
salt is dissolved in water.  
DO NOT pour detergent into the special  
Salt Container. This will destroy the  
water softener.  
LOW SALT indicator  
Add more salt as soon as the LOW SALT  
indicator 4 on the front panel lights  
up.  
GG You should fill just before starting the  
programme.  
G Unscrew the lid of the salt container.  
Before using the dishwasher for the  
first time, pour approximately 1 litre of  
water into the salt container.  
G Use the supplied funnel to fill salt to the  
top of the container (maximum of 1.5kg).  
As you tip in the salt some of the water  
is displaced and drains away.  
When you have done this, clean off any  
remnants of salt from the area around  
the neck of the container. Replace the  
lid, back onto the container, ensuring  
that it is not cross-threaded.

We recommend Sun All in One for use in  
this (or your new) dishwasher...  
Sun All in One with built in salt function  
makes machine dishwashing even more  
convenient than ever. The tablets and rinse  
aid have a built in salt function guarantee-  
ing great results.  
You can use Sun All in One almost any-  
where (in the UK / Ireland) without having  
to add extra salt. In areas of very hard water  
you may need to use some salt in addition  
to Sun All in One to prevent scale deposits  
on your dishes and dishwasher.  
Simply fill the rinse aid container with Sun  
All in One Rinse Aid, prior to using the dish-  
washer and then add a Sun All in One tablet  
in the detergent dispenser.  
The Low Salt indicator light will come on  
after a few washes with Sun All in One. This  
is completely normal and indicates that the  
salt container is empty. The salt function  
will be performed by Sun All in One.

What can I Wash...  
dishwasher:  
Items NOT suitable for the  
Washing contents of UPPER basket only:  
(DWF 35)  
If you only have a small number of dishes to  
wash, put them all into the upper basket  
and place cutlery into the upper cutlery  
basket.  
Then press the half load button 9 .This  
saves energy and water. If you select this  
function the lower basket must be empty.  
Add a reduced amount of detergent com-  
pared to that which is recommended for a  
full load.  
G Cutlery and tableware made from  
wood or part wood-They become  
faded and unsightly in appearance.  
G Avoid washing horn-handled and  
bronze cutlery in the machine.  
G Delicate/decorative glassware and  
vases, special antique or irreplaceable  
china - the decorative patterns  
printed on these objects will not be  
dishwasher proof.  
G Plastic objects that are not resistant to  
hot water.  
G Copper and Pewter utensils.  
G Aluminium and silver objects.  
G Decorative patterns printed on the  
surface of crockery, glasses etc.  
G Some types of glass can become  
opaque in appearance after they have  
been washed too many times in a  
dishwasher.  
G Highly absorbent materials such as,  
sponges and towels should never be  
placed in a dishwasher.  
If in any doubt, check with the manufacturer  
of the China, pan(s) and cutlery on their  
suitability for dishwasher's.  
Washing contents of UPPER and LOWER  
basket:  
WARNING: Dishes or cutlery that have been  
soiled by tobacco ash, wax, lubricating grease  
or paint, should not be put in the dishwasher.  
In principle you can stack all dishes and  
other utensils anywhere you like inside the  
dishwasher so that the available space is  
always used to the maximum benefit.  
The upper and lower baskets have been  
designed so that all types of table and  
kitchenware (plates, pans, bowls, cups,  
glasses and cutlery) can be stacked in both  
the upper and the lower baskets.  
Our recommendation:  
In future, only purchase table or  
kitchenware that has been confirmed as  
being dishwasher proof.  
This makes the dishwasher easier to load, as  
you can fully load the upper basket first of  
all before you pull out the lower basket.

Loading your Dishwasher...  
Loading the dishwasher  
Pots and Pans  
Scrape off any large amounts of  
left-over food. It is not necessary to  
rinse the dishes under running water.  
Lower basket  
Place objects in the dishwasher in such  
a way that:  
-
Items such as cups, glasses,  
pots/pans, etc. are stood upside  
down.  
-
Curved items, or those with  
recesses, should be at a slant so  
that water can run off.  
-
-
They are stacked securely and  
cannot tip over.  
They do not prevent the spray  
arms from rotating while washing  
takes place.  
Cups and Glasses  
Folding Spikes  
Upper basket  
To improve stacking of pots and pans,  
the spikes can be folded down.  
Do not overload the appliance! It  
may reduce the quality of the wash.  
Cutlery  
WARNING To prevent damage to  
crockery or risk of injury, slowly pull  
the baskets out of the dishwasher,  
ensuring they remain in the basket  
runners.  
Cutlery should always be inserted in  
random order with the blades pointing  
downwards (take care with knife  
blades). This enables the jet of water to  
reach the individual items more easily.

Knife rack (accessory)  
Shelf  
Lean tall glasses and those with long  
stems against the shelf - not against  
other items being washed.  
Place glasses, cups and small bowls on  
the additional cup rack. This additional  
cup rack can be swivelled in or out as  
required.  
The top basket can be inserted on  
either its upper or lower rollers,  
according to requirement.  
This enables more height to be gained  
for bigger dishes in either the top or  
the bottom basket.  
Long items, serving cutlery, salad  
servers or knives should be placed on  
the shelf so that they do not obstruct  
the rotation of the spray arms. The  
shelf can be folded back when not  
required for use.  
Long stemmed glasses can be placed  
against the zig-zag rack as shown  
above to stand securely during the  
wash.

Care and Maintenance...  
Regular inspection and maintenance of your  
appliance helps to prevent problems from  
occurring.This saves time and aggravation.  
You should therefore carefully inspect the  
inside of your dishwasher from time to time.  
Overall condition of appliance.  
-
Check that no grease or scale has  
accumulated on the inside of the  
dishwasher.  
If you discover any deposits:  
-
Clean the interior of the dishwasher  
thoroughly with a detergent solution.  
Reassembly:  
Insert the filter system and screw  
down with the filter cylinder.  
Dishwasher salt.  
-
The LOW SALT indicator on the control panel  
4 will illuminate when salt is required.You  
can also check the salt container itself.  
Rinse-aid.  
The LOW RINSE-AID indicator on the control  
panel 5 will illuminate when rinse-aid is  
required. Also check the level indicator on the  
container.  
IMPORTANT: Filters.  
The filters prevent large particles of food or  
other objects from getting inside the  
pump.This residue can occasionally block  
the filters.  
The filter system consists of a filter  
cylinder, a flat fine filter and depending on  
the Model, a microfilter (*).  
-
Inspect the filters for obstructions  
every time the dishwasher has been  
used.  
By unscrewing the filter cylinder, you  
can remove the filter system. Remove  
any food remnants and clean the  
filters under running water.  
Remove any particles of food and  
rinse the filters under running water.

Ensure that the filter is locked in place by  
screwing down until the two arrows are
