WARNINGS It is most important that this instruction book should be retained with the appliance for future reference. Should the appliance be sold or transferred to another owner, or should you move house and leave the appliance, always ensure that the book is left with the appliance in order that the new owner can get to know the functioning of the appliance and the relevant warnings. These warnings are provided in the interest of safety.
INSTALLATION Remove all packaging before positioning the machine. Installing and Securing the Machine Under a Kitchen Unit (Sink-Worktop Unit) Positioning By removing the machine's worktop, you can install it under a close fitting sink unit or a pre-existing top, if the dimensions of the recess correspond to those shown in the picture. If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain.
For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine's supply hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4 inch gas thread spout, or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Press Block. Water Outlet Connection The end of the drain hose can be connected as follows: to the sink outlet siphon, securing it if necessary with a clip; To make this easier, the hose itself may be turned to the left or the right.
Electrical connection Permanent connection Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person. In the case of a permanent connection it is necessary that you install a double pole switch between the appliance and the electricity supply (mains), with a minimum gap of 3mm between the switch contacts and a type suitable for the required load in compliance with the current electrical regulations.
USE Control panel 1 5 4 23 C+ 6 7 D 9 8 1. Indicator light 5. Programme marker This comes on when the ON/OFF button is depressed, indicating that the machine is on. 6. Programme selector dial To select a programme, turn the “programme selector dial” clockwise, making sure that the programme letter of the programme you wish to select corresponds with the “programme marker” (5). 2.
Levels 4 and 5 (adjustment on the machine) The Water Softener Water contains varying amounts of lime and mineral salts depending on the area in which you live: these are deposited on the dishes leaving white marks. A The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water will be. The «hardness» level is measured on 2 equivalent scales: French Degrees or Clarke Degrees. Contact your local Water Authority to find the exact water hardness level for your area.
To open the dispenser lid, pull the catch (D). This will open it. Rinse Aid The use of this liquid ensures thorough rinsing, spot and streak free drying, making the water run quickly off the dishes for sparkling results. It is automatically added during the hot rinse. 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.
Loading your Machine Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard. Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket. Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food from the plates (small bones, toothpicks, fish bones, scraps of meat and vegetables, fruit skins etc.) to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing performance. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives.
Use of the Upper Basket Adjusting the Height of the Upper Basket The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses; these should be arranged as shown in the pictures. Glasses with long stems can be placed upside-down in the raised cupracks.
HELPFUL HINTS To save energy Items not Suitable for Dishwashers Do not prewash dishes under running water. Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing. If necessary run the Rinse and Hold programme (see Programme Chart on the following pages), so that any food scraps do not become caked on the dishes while you are waiting to run the complete wash programme.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING Cleaning the central filters Internal and external cleaning (After each wash) You must ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth. Inspect the central filters (B) and (C) and remove any scraps of food with a brush, under running water. We recommend the use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner every 3 months or run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.
