The back or sides of the dishwasher may be placed up against walls or other furniture units. If the dishwasher is installed near a heat source, fit the special insulating panel to prevent overheating and malfunction of the appliance.
Installation instructions 2.1 Water supply connection Preventing the risk of clogging or damage: if the water pipe is new or has not been used for a long time, before connecting to the water supply check that the water is clear and free of impurities, to prevent damage to the appliance. The dishwasher must always be connected to the water system with new hoses; old or used hoses must never be reused.

User instructions 3. Operating instructions Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as follows: • • • Adjust the water softening system; Add the regenerating salt; Add the rinse aid and detergent. 3.1 Using the water softening system The amount of scale contained in the water (water hardness index) can cause whitish staining on the dry dishes, which tend to become dull over time.
User instructions • Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which, over time, may damage the water softening system. • When necessary, refill the regenerating salt container before starting the washing program. In this way, the excess saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank may lead to corrosion.
User instructions ADDING THE RINSE AID The rinse aid helps the dishes dry faster and prevents the formation of scale deposits and staining; it is automatically added to the water during the final rinse cycle, from the container situated on the inner side of the door. To add rinse aid: • Open the door. • Rotate the container cap anticlockwise by ¼ of a turn and remove it. • Add the rinse aid until the container is full (approximately 140 cc).
User instructions ADDING THE DETERGENT To open the detergent dispenser cap, lightly press the button P. Add the detergent and close the cap carefully. During the washing cycle, the dispenser will be opened automatically. • When a program with hot prewash is selected (see program table), extra detergent must be placed in the cavity G/H (depending on models). • Use only detergents specially formulated for dishwashers. For optimal washing results it is important to use a good quality detergent.
User instructions • The market offers liquid and powder detergents with differing chemical compositions, which may contain phosphates, or be phosphate-free but contain natural enzymes. - Detergents containing phosphates are more effective against grease and starch at temperatures above 60°C. - Enzyme detergents, on the other hand, are also effective at lower temperatures (from 40 to 55°C) and are more easily biodegradable.
User instructions 3.3 General warnings and recommendations Before using the dishwasher for the first time, it is advisable to read the following recommendations concerning dish types to be washed and their loading. There are generally no constraints on the washing of domestic dishes, but in certain cases it is necessary to take their characteristics into account. Before loading the dishes into the baskets it is necessary to: • remove coarse food remains: e.g. bones, fish-bones, etc.
User instructions Items which are not dishwasher-safe: • • • • • • • • Wooden dishes, pots or pans: these may be damaged by the high washing temperatures. Handcrafted items: these are rarely suitable for washing in a dishwasher. The relatively high water temperatures and the detergents used may damage them. Plastic dishes: heat resistant plastic dishes must be washed in the upper basket. Dishes and objects in copper, tin, zinc or brass: these tend to stain.
User instructions 3.4 Using the baskets The dishwasher has a capacity of 10 place-settings, including serving dishes. EN 50242 STANDARD LOADS FOR CERTIFICATION BODIES LOWER BASKET UPPER BASKET The upper basket must be set in the low position. LOWER BASKET The lower basket receives the full force of the lower spray arm, and should therefore be used for the “toughest” items with a heavier degree of soiling.
User instructions LOADING THE LOWER BASKET Carefully load flat plates, soup plates, dessert and serving dishes, positioning them vertically. Pots, pans and their covers must be loaded upside down. When loading soup plates and dessert bowls, be sure to leave a gap between them. Loading examples: CUTLERY BASKET The cutlery should be arranged in an orderly manner inside the basket, with the handles pointing downwards. Take care during loading to avoid injury from the knife blades.
User instructions UPPER BASKET It is recommended to load the upper basket with small- or medium-sized items such as glasses, small plates, tea or coffee cups, shallow bowls and light objects made from heat resistant plastic. If the upper basket is used in the lowermost position, it can also be loaded with serving dishes, provided they are only slightly soiled. The basket is equipped with two tip-up cutlery supports which can be raised or lowered as required. See illustrations below.
User instructions ADJUSTING THE UPPER BASKET The upper basket can be adjusted in two positions, according to the user’s needs and according to the height of the dishes in the lower basket. Proceed as follows: • • • • turn the retainer E on both runners, right and left, through 90°; remove the basket; lift the basket and fit the smaller pairs of wheels in the runners; return the retainers E to their original position.
User instructions 4.
