Saving energy and respecting the environment GB 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 with the Soak cycle (if available, see Wash Cycles). • Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of crockery and to the soil level using the Table of Wash Cycles: - For dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco wash cycle, which guarantees low energy and water consumption levels.
Installation GB If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it in an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be tilted onto its back. Positioning and levelling 1. Position the dishwasher on a level sturdy floor. If the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position. If the appliance is levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to move or cause vibrations and noise while it is operating.
the plug (see Repairs and After Sales). Do not use extension cables or multiple sockets.

Refined Salt and Rinse Aid Only use products which have been specifically designed for dishwashers. Do not use table salt or industrial salt. Follow the instructions given on the packaging. If you are using a multi-function product, we recommend that you add salt in any case, especially if the water is hard or very hard. (Follow the instructions given on the packaging.) If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and LOW RINSE AID* indicator lights will remain lit.
Loading the racks GB Tips Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and containers. No preventive rinsing is needed under running water. Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not tip over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing the water to reach every surface and flow freely.
Tray* Some dishwasher models are fitted with a sliding tray which can be used to hold small crockery and cutlery. For optimum washing performance, avoid positioning bulky crockery directly below the tray. The cutlery tray can be removed. (see Figure.) Adjusting the height of the upper rack The height of the upper rack can be adjusted: high position to place bulky crockery in the lower rack and low position to make the most of the tip-up compartments by creating more space upwards.
Detergent and dishwasher use GB Measuring out the detergent Good washing results also depend on the correct amount of detergent being used. Exceeding the stated amount does not result in a more effective wash and increases environmental pollution. The amount can be adjusted to the soil level. In the case of normally soiled items, use approximately either 25g (powder detergent) or 25ml (liquid detergent). If tablets are used, one tablet will be enough.
Wash cycles Wash-cycle data is measured under laboratory conditions according to European Standard EN 50242. Based on the different conditions of use, the wash-cycle duration and data can change.
